For rm15k and below u can get a used 4-5 yrs old er6n. Beats any 250cc any time. And still pays roughly the same amount in terms of maintenance and consumption.

2014 u csnt get below rm15k lah. Very rare unless owner desperate. Sure got issue.

Old model also ok since u gonna use it for work commute only.

Then it is enuf. 2012 can be had for around 18-20k. Leave some balance to buy proper riding gears and you're set.

Seriously, it will be the perfect bike for daily work commute and occasional weekends. Use sport touring or touring tyres for longer mileage and keep your chain lubed always, it can basically last 30-40k km.

Fuel consumption is just like a 250 if you keep to the speed below 120-130, thereby making it a no brainer on why ppl would choose a 250 if they can afford a 650.

Yes it is. Unless if youre the santai2 banyak time to spend kinda guy.

22k-24k. Get a used Versys. Jalan jauh? No problem. Maintain 140kmj all the way, reach jb fresh and kicking.
