Hi,

Currently in Sabah. I used to own one BoonSiew Honda EX5 (missed this baby, sold before I came back to Sabah)
I'm looking for a new ride. What I have in mind now is the KSR110
I would like to try a faster bike, maybe bit sportish like 150cc/250cc and above
But I don't want those that you need to bend forward to reach for the handles aka. sportbikes where the fuel tank in front makes you bend forward. Reason : I want a semi comfortable ride, thus I was looking at the KSR110
- wider tyre size (makes it look kewl) KSR has wider tyre size but it looks small (haven't seen a real KSR110 yet)
- Fuel Saving but not extreme saving needed
- comfortable and got powah
- budgetwise : 6K to 8K (prolly looking at used ones too)

Any other option I should look at besides the KSR110? Would like to press/twist bit the fuel cool2.gif if u know what i mean
too bad here no sportbike rental, else can give a try

and my license is only up to 250cc right?
B2 License

Thanks

Honda Future. 125cc. Easily fit your spec and with that budget you can buy the top range model. Using one now. Heck, this is the only default answer laugh.gif

I bought highest spec, then immediately do tubeless conversion. This bike does not look sporty. Comes with black sport rims though laugh.gif However, I use the boot so often that I don't care. Can put groceries, paper notes will not get wet, helmet. Very economical with fuel. Bigger CC, less economical. I think Honda has a 110CC what is fuel economical Euro II engine.

Wider tyre = more weight = less fuel economy.

This is my daily work commute. My friend got a KTM 200, then bought a Modenas 128 for work because it is more practical.

Sorry, cannot help there with what you want.
