i did actually bought it last year on ebay (last year was around rm400++ for redbull+ogio no drag (mach 3 model)) but the darnest thing is after i transfer the money and the pruchase was confirmed, a day later i got an email saying its already out of stock....
Now this is helpful. Actually getting a 250cc first has been the initial intention (because I saw one YouTube vid where the guy crashed an R6, having trouble moving the bike from still, engine always mati, and crashed when he couldn't lean the bike)
I guess that would be the best option for now. I need to buy few other stuffs as well, jackets, helmets etc.
Ok, given an option between R25, or a Ninja 250, which is the one to get? Not really fond of Honda or Suzuki.
Eh why you advise me to wait? Does it means newer version is coming soon? I prefer to have an ABS if possible though. I'd spend extra for that thing.
i own r25 and personally either way is fine... if u wanted a cheap option (well last time la it was cheap) go for r25, if u have no problem to splurge some amount, go for ninja 250 (2 piston)

i tested R25 today for the first time..compared to my ninja250
power - reasonable..nothing special bout 14.5k..i can't rev up till that high and top speed 155km( cannot naik d) seating - feel weird on me parts - feels not bad but rattling..dunno why..maybe is side mirror rattling
to me overalls looks is nice..price is good..meter looks nice but overall I'm happier with my Ninja 250...hahaha
personally i can go whack my r25 165km/j on 13k rpm without much problem... however if i wanna go till 170km/j++ i need longer road to achieve that... its achievable believe me....
i lowered my fork not for the looks only but i feel more comfortable riding especially on long distant riding. dunnue la if placebo or what but i really feel comfortable with lowering down to 1 1/2 inch than the standard ones....
u cant achieve 14.5k rpm without removing the rpm cut 1st...
Go to shop next to kangkang at sentul. Just in front of dynasty hotel sentul. Cheap some more. Got ogio dainese mach 3 selling less than 300. Variety of item to choose for.
seriously? ori ke? got money will go and see lah...
Ok, all set for R25. But wondering what is the difference between the one that in the promotional image/video ridden by Rossi, and the one that is available in the market. Mcm got a bit of differences where the one in the promo looks meaner and sexy. Aren't they are the same bike?
standard lah, prototype and real world mia finale production. must have a bit of difference.... would love to have the prototype style but im good with the current design.
