this perception will compound and makes things worse in the long run. Sadly nothing we can do about it. Regular maintenance wise I think the trident might be more economical. Parts wise depends on demand I guess.

so this perception is true or not?

benelli gonna struggle to sell their 39k bike after this...and maybe mt07 too

im joining the golongan tambah sikit bandwagon. the mt09 2021 VS trident 660..just forget about mt07.
would you spend extra few thousands to get the most completed bike the mt09 2021(equipped with quickshifter and bigger cc)? the price range difference might be around 5,6k. what is your thought?
trident 660 might be leading the 650cc category but in term of price range in Malaysia, would it be a no brainer to get an mt09 2021 instead?

I'm really sad with the price. I really hope the price would be around cb650r after add on a few optional jajan like Bluetooth and QS. Anyone know the full jajan price for triumph 660?
*
Why do you think so? Cb650r also dont have quickshifter right? Furthermore trident came with tft lcd and ride by wire. One thing that the trident lack of was the radial mounting..

Take it slow..if possible try avoiding a route with too much gradient..and if u need to stop and take a break, do so. Just make sure u are not in a rush or anything lagi-lagi kalau you are not used to clutch work on a bike.

It took me 45 minutes to take my first bike home from the shop that is 15 minutes away..

Edit: and plan that your route so that you pass by a petrol station. And ask the shop to show u how to open the fuel cap if u not familiar
*
Im totally agree with the fuel cap thingy..make sure you familiar with how the basic things work first.

Your points are valid and I completely understand where you're coming from, but I really don't have that luxury. That's not counting having to deal with the potential issues that come with buying a used bike.

I also know how good the XMAX is and about its popularity, but again, it's out of my reach.
I'm actually a slow rider who isn't chasing top speed. I used to own NMAX before my Ninja and rode the NS highway from KL to Seremban multiple times a week, and sometimes almost every other day. With my current situation, I can probably get by if a ADV150 had identical performance to NMAX, but it's not that powerful due to lacking 2 valves, and this makes overtaking other vehicles somewhat unsafe. Videos I saw of ADV put its cruising speed at around 90~95 km/h, but I need something that can cruise at 100~110, which my NMAX could do with just a roller change (used Dr Pulley 13g sliding roller).

The WMOTO RT3 can apparently hit 130~140km/h, which makes it promising. I never considered ME250 due to its bulk and looks which I don't quite like.

Sold it back in Sept/October last year due to needing to replace my malfunctioning laptop for WFH. MCO caused me a lot of problems financially and sadly I had to let go of the bike. I would have kept it if my situation allowed for it.  sad.gif

After selling I managed to get new PC just in time for my work before the prices of parts rose in mid January. But for the bike, I'm planning to replace the Ninja with a 150/250cc scooter by end of the year or early next year, since by then interstate travel might be open again.

feel sorry for you bro... this cobid thingy really got us real bad..

FYI last year I register at driving school there is no B1, only B2 and B full

make sense. never heard of motorcycle that used for license above 250 and below 500. during my day, either you go B2 for ex5 or Bfull for virago.
