Hi there guys, i left the bike scene more than 5 years ago. But now feeling the itch to be back in the scene.

I dont have b full but wishing to get one.
Previously owned bikes tzm, zxr 250, rgx, 125z, vs125 and lc 135.

Since im out of touch with current bikes, any recommended bike to look for at below 50k which is nimble and light handling but with power.

Thankss guys

My bikes stock tyres.....few times when I was cruising up flyovers on a rainy day,  no sudden acceleration or anything.. Just maintain throttle , the rear tyres spun and slipped when it goes over the white painted arrow on the road.  Could be because of my  bikes high torque.

Can be a bit scary.

I took the risk and leaned on white line at kkic with rosso corsa 2., lucky me everything went well, due to lots of cyclist on the road, my line had to be adjusted multiple times

only for commute? or do you also do weekend rides, or touring?

say if you wanna ride weekend to Genting or Cameron, or something... then maybe drop a note here look for riding company also ok.
if you like speed, with all the safety gears, can just go hotspot, you'll meet a lot of friendly kaki there.
some likes highway long distance riding, just to go some coffee shop for roti and kopi, and then continue on the road.

during cmco, can go up genting ?

I am saving up for KTM ADV390, but saw Moto Morini 650, maybe gunning for that.

Anybody here considered these two or owned one ? Cheers

Ya that bike is really hard to find neutral. I tested 3 bikes all had the same problem. Sometimes I can't find neutral I just turned it off in gear haha
I am.
Seriously considering the 390 adv. You can read my test ride review here
https://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...ost&p=107115254

Now patiently waiting for used ones to drop below rm20k to buy. Lowest that I've seen is rm22k-ish so end of this year might go below 20k

Yes used one will drop hard. Hopefully below 20k so we can have a mini adv commuter bike 😁
