I hv always wondered... if DIY oil change, where do I chuck out the used oil?

That's the only thing stopping me, coz my condo does not allow me to pour the stuff down the longkang...

Dont throw into longkang.
I passed my used one to Waste Management or to local garbage collector. they do collect this to dispose properly.
You are ruining the land or the sea if throw to longkang or soil

Everywhere here is like this. Most Yamaha>Kawi in price. One reason is that MT07 has a more fun engine with slightly less vibration. Moreover, Yamaha is a popular brand, partly due to Malaysia being a majority Rossi country. nod.gif

As a commuter, I would personally choose the z650. It's a smaller, lighter version of the ER6N (almost 10kg lighter, IIRC) with ABS and slipper clutch. It's silly, but I have a sentimental attachment to that 650 engine because it's the first bike of that kind that I rode for the B Full lessons and test. Feels familiar and gives me confidence.

Looking for a budget compact full face helmet.

I already have a Scorpion ADX-1 flip up helmet and a cheap open face Dot helmet.

Now I want a compact full face helmet for 10km travel. Budget below RM500. I know most compact and light weigh helmets are from expensive brands.

Your inputs are much appreciated. Thsnks.

compact helmet? i hv not come across this term used by helmet manufacturers.

size is determined by the shell size+ head size.

maybe you want light weight?

just for 10km travel? i assume daily?

personally, dont waste ur money. just use the ADX-1. it should be airy enough and being a flipup, convenient enough.

I would go for HJC instead of LS2. I got the IS-Max 2 for RM 650 and has a 4* Sharp rating and the lid doesn't open during crashes (according to Sharp website)

Basically I intend to use it to wet market which is about 5km from my home. I intend to cable lock my full face helmet. That's why I want cheaper helmet cos if stolen, no heart pain.

My Scorpion helmet which is heavy and bulky. I bought it for my future use on touring. Now I am using an open face helmet for practising around my taman.

Heya I wanna know the maintenance for Demak EX-90. So far in your experience, is it easy to source the parts for this bike? I hear many people say do not get Demak EX-90 because can't find the spare parts at all for this bike.

I see many of the bikes being sold for cheap (2nd-hand), being used to parkir Plate No. Thinking of getting one for short-range tunggang tunggang.

But EX-90 isn't the parts similar to the likes of Honda EX-5? I wish I could find a parts list for the EX-90!
