Finally got to get some photos of my bike up. Friend kindly took them with his DSLR.

Ducati 848

that's my babe she' MINEEE

samngcheesan

currently considering between 08 r6 or cbr 600 rr

which one is better? am planning to use it for weekend ride

I know I'm not him but the R6 has a more revvy engine, the CBR is more torquey. CBR is marginally more comfortable but the R6 is prettier.

Whichever bike you buy you'll walk away happy for a weekend ride.

thanks mate!
actually the Q is open to everybody
kinda envy ur new 848-wish i could find it around the same price range u bought her

Thanks bro, I was damn lucky actually. Same price as an 08 CBR 1000 RR and 08 R1. Test rode both her and the CBR, CBR was faster but no character. She won pretty much hands down. I was so in love when they started her engine (v-twin goodness) I just had to have her. Very well maintained by previous owner, who is currently servicing her again.

haha u really are one lucky guy

problem is..its brand new price tag is wayyy beyond my grasp

but cant really wait and search for 2nd hand 848 as im itching to get my very first sbk (well my job is stressing me too much i need something to release the heat )

Haha price for new one ALSO WAYYY beyond me too ; )

Actually the 848 was stretching budget. budget was about 70k. But the offer was too good to resist.

The 848 isn't a particularly good first superbike. If you've ridden big bikes in the past its not so bad, else I would recommend a japanese 600 first. Ducati's can be a little temperamental, especially servicing wise. Mine is okay (touch wood) but I know there are a few dodgy ones flying around. I don't send my bike to Naza for servicing though. Japanese 600's are generally bullet proof maintainence wise and most places will be able to fix them. Ducati's require specialist tools. Only 2-3 places I know of can service them. Naza, Welly Batu Caves and Sunway Cycles.

thanks for the info
is thats the case,will stick to original plan..buying 600cc japanese bike first,cant imagine riding up to kl all the way from johore just to get the service done..lol

enjoy ur ride bro..hope able to make up my mind and get my ride by the end of this month

Good to hear. I'm sure places in SG can service. It's just these places in KL la that I know. Being KL based and all.

Don't forget if looking those after market accs can always look for this jaj dist at 016-6288088

Anyway my latest picture






Any others bikes photo ? Please post urs

Nice white 848 you got there.....Not really an eye opener as the previous 999 series but still nice bike for sure

My dad's Suzuki Intruder VS800(sold), My(well, not officially mine yet) Kawasaki Z750 and dad's Harley Davidson Heritage Softail

Thanks I actually prefer the 848/1098/1198 series styling anyhow. Given the choice I would want a 998R *think the Matrix reloaded with the keymaker scene, the other bike was an MV augusta F4, nice also *.

wowwww just look at Ewan's parking porch......what a machine!!!!\


Damnn somehow I think the Z7 with yellow colour are the nicest ever than the kawa official green.

hahahah. Normal parking porch only la. The Z750 original colour is Kawasaki official green.
