Looking for HS1 bulb recommendations.

The stock bulb on my Wave is too dark so I am looking for a replacement.
I am considering Osram Cool Blue or the brighter Osram Silverstar (though I read some reviews that it breaks down easily) but I'm not sure if there will be improvements or not.
LEDs isn't really an option since the reflectors are not made for those, not to mention my bulb is wired to the stator.
Hope you guys could help me with this.
TIA!

Part #2 is glued to #1 due to rust. I only tried WD40 so far.

I was going to do maintenance on my center stand but I realized rust has seized the shaft to the stand. I still cannot pull the shaft out despite having removed the pin and bending the mangled parts back.
I'm thinking about angle grinder but I wonder if there are other alternatives.
Any ideas guys?

A mechanic threatened me for reminding him to install my tires in the right direction.

Last month I went to a shop to true my rear rim.
Shop owner seemed friendly at first and things went normal, until the last phase being reinstalling the tire. He was going to do it the wrong way so I calmly reminded him to do it the right way judging by these arrow (in the picture) which somehow triggered his ego.

He shouted: (Djt mẹ m tao thay lốp Michelin bao đời rồi, đéo biết gì thì câm mồm vào. Về mà đọc cái HDSD.)"I have changed Michelin tires for years you retard. If you know nothing then stfu and go read the manual!"

He also threatened that he would not continue the work.
Luckily his uncle was there and didn't want to cause any more trouble so he persuaded him into doing it my way. Still, the tire was installed using engine oil as lubricant and the tube was inflated to near 60 psi (while in the manual/on the chain case says 33 psi maximum).

The shop is Tiệm Đồ chơi xe 123 in Phạm Ngũ Lão street, Hải Dương City. I am a local btw, not a foreigner.

I lived with a gold digger mother and a cheater stepfather (27 years older than her) for 8 years since I was 14. I have now moved out. AMA

I was a byproduct of a failed marriage in which my mother insisted on marrying an alcoholic douche bag only to divorce in a year. She was 19 when that happened, she didn't have a job, was still a student and her husband had a fragile career.
When I was 8 she was gradually being unable to financially support me so she started looking for another man to marry. First one was nice but it seemed he bailed out the following year.
The one after him was a business man but he's 27 years older than her. Knowing that this man liked cheating, she insisted that she had a baby with this man who already had a family of a wife and three daughters.

I was 10 back then and bad signs were already there: she's always crying and wrecking stuffs around while bickering with said man through phone; there was a day I just got home from school then see her crying in a corner, a few minutes later that old man showed up and dragged her away from home. She would not return after three days.

Some time later I got to live in an apartment he purchased, but living there was even worse.
He show up there once or twice a week to stay overnight and a lot of crazy things happen including the following:

  • They sometimes call me in right after "wrestling" and didn't even putting clothes on.
  • At night their "wrestling" noise was so loud that I couldn't sleep. My room was next to theirs.
  • My mother carried her new born son to the balcony to jump, I was luckily able to pull her back. But sometimes she used a knife to threaten that she wanted to end her son's life for being the cause of her misery.
  • Sometimes she complain that she no longer has virginity to satisfy other men in case this one dies.
  • He actually had another family this whole time
  • She once told me to get in her car taking her new born son too. She later called her husband while driving to scream and threaten that she would plunge us into a river.

A lot of crazy stuffs happened in that family and I think it's quite lucky that I haven't got insane.
Bizarre stuffs still happen there but I've moved out. I try my best to not visit that place again.

I live in Viet Nam btw.

Should I buy Grip lock or Disc lock? Both have alarm

I am thinking of adding more security for my bike.
Leaning towards Grip lock but I think thieves can unscrew the brake lever and drag the bike away.
Disc lock works but can damage your bike if forgotten to unlock from what I see.
I already have an ID security system installed on the bike, but that only activates if someone try to start the engine. Thieves can still drag the bike away silently.
