hi guys. Enjoy reading all the posts smile.gif

By the way, Im planning to hike on z250rl soon. Kajang-KL (Jln Pahang) daily ride as Im going to be transferred soon, and car driving is out of option I guess. Is this a good choice or any other better option for 70-80km daily ride? Thanks mate

z250sl?

i say get a used Z250 instead.


was considering the z250sl quite some time ago.. and after joining the FB group and reading some of the posts/comments....kinda turned me off.

only common issue is the headlamp cracking due to the bulb watt being too high....

but there are a number of owners who has complained of various problems.

1 dood even spent almost the price of the bike to get it fixed.. now gave up, and selling the bike as parts.

You mean the 2-cylinder is better right?

yes. that engine has been around for so long and has been so popular all over the world that any issues it has/had, there would probably be a solution for it already heheheh

Z250 common problems that i know of
1/ water entering meter cluster
2/ coil burning out - can be re-coiled for about RM4-500 ringgit.


both doesnt happen very often though. my 50k km z250 thankfully hasnt had any issues.

though i think i wanna change my wheel bearings soon.

Wheel bearing wear out on a bike is it like in a car where you have noise when you ride?

no idea to be honest... though mine does squeak when i reverse the bike. not sure why.. and makes me wanna change

ppl usually change the bearing when it breaks.
