hi guys, wanna ask expert opinion.

I am taking B full with no bike experience. Attended first day of practical and cant even turn properly on the modenas kriss (straight line ok)

I was thinking to get a cheap clutch bike like modenas ns200 for practice. Is this feasible?

thanks for the input.

i missed to mention i am old fag who parents dun let ride bike when small and now i grew up pay for my own lesson.

i feel its actually harder than it seems lol since i never ride a bike before. Harder for old dog to learn new tricks i guess.

and the fear of falling is more when older. young time can fall like no body business just brush it off

Mio Mivue M733
Caper S2

both use SONY sensor which is very good quality even in night time recording.
the difference is M733 has WI-FI function that you can view video directly on your phone with the APP without transferring file from memory card to computer.
you can check for its video quality on youtube.

mio is nice, but google result all point to taiwan. where can get here?

Why not. Go for it, and when you're bored with Z125, sell it.  thumbup.gif

Yeah, gotcha. I'll see if I want to get an aftermarket tail tidy before I do that. But I'm otherwise satisfied with the standard tail...it's not too large for me and JPJ won't kacau.
No problem. All interested parties deserve to know. Thanks for reading and I do hope you'll be able to get one too.  smile.gif  It's a great bike, and after riding it, I finally understand why it's considered one of the best mid-lower capacity bikes in NA.

There's a few more small things that I forgot to mention in that post. For example: the standard side mirrors which are too long and make lane-splitting kind of tough (I replaced them almost immediately), and that the bike has a 'Neutral finder assist' which prevents you from going up to 2nd gear at a standstill. But other than those, I think I've covered most of my experience so far. I'll try my best to get back to it and update with my ownership experience as I continue to put kms on the bike.

actually the mirror is one of the reason i like kawa lol. And the neutral assist i think alot of kawa bikes have it?

Hi all, any recommendation for a newbie bike around RM20k excluding gears?

Was eyeing for R15 but felt that 150cc might be too low. Favorite bike is Ninja 400 but out of budget for now.

Zontes 300 bikes? Im using one now and so far its been doing well (1.5k km covered so far).. 23999 on the road..but u can browse around some shops give lots discounts.. There's the T for the adventure (ala BMW GS), the R for the naked and the X for the sports tourer.

The old one is with double swing arm and have only a black and white screen. The new version is with single swing arm and has the coloured TFT which can connect to your phone as well.

i did went to see Zontes back then when they first launch. I really don't like the looks of them, felt it have very "busy" lines here and there.

i have been joining bike groups to know more about the bike I plan to get.

Got a question. Why do ppl like to "sunat" their bike?
