Upcoming "Joni Dropkick" Characters (SPOILER ALERT)

1. Wayne Phillip Rodriguez A.K.A. "Wayne Pyro"

Heavily addicted to clove cigarettes. Prefer fistfight, but may use firearms if necessary. Other than smoke, also obsessed with fire, therefore always end a fight with burning down the whole location. Hence the nickname, "Wayne Pyro" 

2. Sergei Carlovic and Seijuro Carlovic

The Carlovic Brothers. Deadly and efficient bounty hunters. While not in "assignment", work part time as performing musicians in a cafe. Their reputation earned their somehow weird nicknames: Sergei "Sabun Cair" Carlovic, and Seijuro "Saos Cabe" Carlovic...

"Sabun Cair" and "Saos Cabe"

3. Leandro Arjuno

One of the good guys. A true expert in extreme sports: parkour, snowboarding, rock climbing, crocodile-wrestling, sky-diving, you name it all. Always trying to perform dangerous and death-defying maneuvers when fighting, which makes him a "frequent customer" to the city hospital. His partners always think he's a bit too risk-taking, so as they always say to him, "You're crazy, Ndro..."

Leandro "You're Crazy, Ndro" Arjuno

4. Corporal Leonard Ibrahim

A cop in the motorcycle division, and by "motorcycle division", I meant more of a "Maniacal speed-holic on two wheels". He hopes that his law-enforcement career can climb as fast as he rides (which is apparently not). Addicted to Toraja coffee. Called with many names such as Leonard "Ride-Hard", "Corporal Camshaft", "Piston Police", "Loose-Cannon Leo", or just "Setan Kolor"...

The latest nickname has a long story behind it.

Sampai sekarang baru segini, sementara itu gue harus pikirin yang lebih penting lagi, yaitu JALAN CERITA... Huff, this is the hardest part.... See ya in the next episode and hopefully it will be soon....

The Lollipop Effect

Sekarang gue akan membahas tentang EFEK LOLIPOP, tapi maksudnya bukan tentang efek kesehatan kalau mengkonsumsi permen lolipop betulan, melainkan ada hubungannya dengan atribut pengendara sepeda motor....

Yang gue maksud tentang EFEK LOLIPOP itu begini : Kalau ada orang berbadan kecil atau kurus, tapi memakai helm full face yang berukuran besar, keliatannya jadi mirip lolipop : batangnya kecil tapi permennya bulat besar....

Biasanya efek lolipop terjadi di orang yang gak pake jaket kayak gambar di atas, atau yang jaketnya terlalu tipis kayak kaos. Dengan kata lain, efek lolipop terjadi bilamana ukuran helm tidak proporsional dengan ukuran badan ditambah pakaian...

Kadang disebut juga "EFEK LAMPU TAMAN"

Tips Ismoyo untuk menghindari EFEK LOLIPOP :
1. Pilih helm jangan yang kegedean, ukurannya harus sekecil mungkin tapi yang masih muat dan nyaman di kepala.
2. Gedein badan (batang lolipopnya) dengan fitness. Utamakan pembentukan otot bahu dan dada
3. Pakai jaket yang lumayan tebel buat kompensasi ukuran helm. Jangan jaket-jaket abg buat gaul di mall, tapi jaket yang emang buat naek motor...

Jangan yang kayak begini

Tapi kalau bisa yang begini

Kalo punya banyak duit, bisa pilih merek KOMINE, RS TAICHI, ALPINESTARS (yang ori ya, jangan yang pinggir jalan), TOURMASTER, dll. Kalo duitnya dikit kayak gue, merek lokal kayak CONTIN atau AHRS juga bagus. Kalo bener-bener gak ada duit, ya gak usah naek motor aja...



Okey sekian dulu tentang tips riding fashion (jarang-jarang nih) dari Ismoyo... Sebagai bonus, gue berikan lebih banyak gambar lolipop....
