funny, if those are within Ts budget, i bought SOME of them long time ago

my bad, just thought these are some cool rides to share

yes, foot pegs & seat is adjustable lah dude! I've adjusted it for my liking!
Adjust rear shock to get ur right seat height with the tool provided.

Yes, insurance + r/tax is definitely more expensive than kapchai due to the market price insured.

ok guys, i have come this far & kinda firm to get a Kawi 250R. of coz i have taken many of your advice to get a better & powerful bike, but CC is not what im after. leisure riding & economic are my only concern. so a 250 is the winner, hands down ^^

i have been busy searching in the web & found several adjustable foot pegs & custom made seats for 250R. there are plenty of after market parts in the web (especially ebay US), now all i need is few more grand for moding the bike

current buying list:
slip on muffler
slider bar
adjustable gear lever (if long distance ride is frequent)
adjustable foot pegs (if long distance ride is frequent)
undertail/eliminator

but first thing first, i gotta settle the busy work which will probably last until june or so. then i will get 250R out of the shop. hehe

Added on April 19, 2010, 9:49 pmabout the kawi 250R engine spec, those in US are carburetors & theres also fuel injection for europe & thai... but why not malaysia?

kawasaki msia <<click on the "SPECS" tab
is that 2008 outdated model? or the 2010 ones are fuel injection?

Looks like u've decided which bike u wanna go, Kawasaki 250r is a good choice
In Malaysia they still selling carb version... i think they won't bring in EFI model to Msia..dunno why...Limited Edition for 2010 also not selling here
For more info, u should join Ninja250r Msia forum HERE
U can have lots of info's in there...and also a lot of aftemarket parts they got from Indon..quite cheap..looking forward to see u with ur bike

thx bro, kawi 250R is the only one that gives the biggest band out of my limited budget.

carbs are ok too, but still i prefer the injecton x_x

thats a very good link, gotta dig into it right away. im quite surprised that indon now produce so many 250R parts especially for appearance mod. m'sia is sure lacking comparing to them :/

make sure you wont craving for more power after you got the small ninja, or 250R wont last you for long

everyone likes the bigger (or the biggest) bike, im no exception. As in reality, everyone dreamed to drive a bmw, if not a ferrari, but most of us ended up with a persona or myvi.

for now im getting a practical bike based on my financial capability & current needs, im not buying a fancy litre bike for track racing, showing off or drawing chicks attention.

trust me, i know what im doing. thx for the advice tho.

its a powerful 250 bike compared to the latest 250r. but 250 with 4 cylinders and 16valve..the parts is too small thus leading to reliability issue.

what issues? no issues over here. the problem does not come from the bike, i assure you. it's always the owner.

maintenance is the main thing here. every bike treat like whore oso won last long.

treat it like your youngest child, no prob will come meh!

i have no doubt, last time the 250 was much better with 4 cylinders. feel like superbike too. definitely going to get this one when i got my license!

YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT!!
I have had my ZXR250 for more than 2 years now, it rides like a dream, hehe... I only let my one trusted SBK mechanic maintain it, quality advice, quality oils & lubricants + parts, etc... It is indeed more powerful than the 250r (and sounds much much better too!) but the 250r is NEW and has a wide appeal due to more modern & practical approach to its design.

Yamato - given your situation, it looks like you will not go wrong with the 250r. But I have a feeling you might 'outgrow' the bike in just a few short months (if not weeks), many do, and end up selling their 250r for a bigger bike. You might really want to consider forking out a little more $$ and go for the ER6f (or ER6n), it equally as practical & behaves very much like the 250r, except that it is more powerful & heavier, & bigger. They all run on similiar engine configurations - liquid colled DOHC parallel twin, and thus sound the same...
Give it some further thinking, ride safe, and all the best to you!!

uh, I have a question..
why is that I cant find any new suzuki GSX-R 600-750 in mudah? but so many yamaha R6 and kawasaki ZX-6R. where's the GSX-R?

This one is much better than the stripped of Kawasaki ninja 250R

dude seriously

Iam an er6n rider and i can tell you it is better to go straight to 650cc compared to 250cc..

250cc is completely underpowered, the topspeed is the same as 1.3l car... not worth it..

The er6n on the other hand has very fast acceleration 0-100kmh 3.8s..
and a nice top speed of 210kmh stock.. and it will accelerate to 190kmh effortless making cars on highways looks like kapchais haha

and plus it has a fabulous FC too 10sen per KM...
but ninja is better in this but you will get a slower bike

BTW i my former bike was zzr 250 which is the bike in my avatar so i know what it's like to ride a 250..

haha just my 2 cents

The only downside of ninja250r and er6n is expensive tyres/chain + sprockets and insurance...

not flaming anyone, but which 250cc you're referring to lerr?
a zxr 250's acceleration is by all means not that great, but on traffic light sprints i reckon can keep up wif any 2.0cc if i want to.

2 stroke 250cc lagi lerr..

here's my li'l pocket rocket, btw.

nice zx2 bro
all 4t 250cc.. im not insulting 250cc riders but if u have ridden bigger CCs bikes u will feel as i do...
once i have tried my frens cbr 929 and it's acceleration was insane and after that when i went back to my bike i felt that 650cc acceleration is slow haha.. just my 2 cents

btw i dun care which bike u ride as long as we are all bikers ..

oh noes, ts take the new 250 .... not only sounds not nice, but rather small and short not speedy enough, better take dtracker coz its taller and look bigger

Added on April 21, 2010, 12:30 pmit look like sport bike but doesnt sound like sportbike and does not goes like one though, why not opt for d tracker ?

ninja 250r is still not bad but the only problem is the acceleration...
but the dtracker is a bit overpriced la for me.. 24k, add 8k more and ull get er6n or er6f which is way better.
