Hi guys, any sports bikes riders here? Please Recommend me a 2nd hand one. Im thinking im not gonna buy a car yet, since want to save money for other thing. But i do like speeding. Please recommend me a sports bike to ride to work. I need to travel 50-55km daily for going office and back home.
150cc is good enough, fuel consumption hope its low as possible (i know its a sport bike, so cant expect it to be really low). Price range is under RM4k. Bikes in mind now: TZM, NSR.
Thanks!

forget the 2 stroke bikes if u wan low fuel consumption...
get a 150cc 4 stroke bike...saves fuel and doesnt require 2T oil...n better for the environment.
can still speed...
though imho, u should use the RM4k as a downpayment for a kancil (mebbe one with turbo)

why not go for the ER6N? add sum like 2-3k onto that 4k for the downpayment. i know its higher the spec TS told us, but for long term usage i believe it is value for money.
i heard ravving reviews on this bike before. and the looks not bad either!

Oh i've heard its not so good for high speed because its a naked bike. anyways, er6n is a beauty though. but its kinda pricey if its going to be your first bike as its 600cc bike. doubt ts have the B license as he's seeking 150cc bikes only.

A used Ninja 250R is how much? Ninja 250R looks great. FZ 150 and Belang 150 dont looks like sports bike.
FZ 150 is within my budget? i only want to spend 4k on bike.

i think only Ninja 250R thats looks more like a sports bike. The rest, well... in my opinion, just normal la..
Ninja looks great, FC not bad, just the price.. and one more, doesnt need to retake new license! normal bike license good enuf!

If you are starting out get a second hand '95-'96 CBR900. If you want value for money and comfort, get a second hand Honda CBR1100XX Super Blackbird. If you want to go all out, nothing beats a Ducati 1198. Ultimate bike of 2009.

get the ninja 150. powerful 2 stroke bike+new design. u even have the option to convert the seat to a single seater. take care of the bike though. the carburettor itself is legendary and a 'hot' item among mat rempit and mat scooter. This post has been edited by blackpc: Jun 25 2009, 10:53 PM

Wao, price of 4 strokes is alot higher than 2 storkes bikes. Whats the reason? I really like the Ninja 250R. But really out of my budget. I also prefer the 4 stroke sound. But the price is killing me.

tzm? better forget about it. u can get it very cheap, but at worse condition. it's really hard to find good condition tzm nowadays. it's an old model. my suggestion is fz150i. 150cc, with injection, save fuel more

2 piston less means less power? I think ZZR250 is still within my budget, if i can stretch a little bit. But that bike looks heavy.
