Morning all~

I plan to buy the z9 and im happy to see this thread here today.

I hv viewed some adv at Mudah earlier, but WHY their manufacture year can be different from 2017 to 2019??!
There must be something wrong isnt it?

1 Kawa dealer offered me a good price @50k , cash, otr, brand new, but is year 2017 ??
He said now all the z9 is year 2017, don even hv 2018, but, how come? Now is May 2019...

NEW bike register in year 2019 but made in year... 2017, will it affect the resell value in the future? or ppl only see the registration year?

Initially im planning to buy those pre-registered bike actually, registered @Aug 2018, rm44800 (Welly), but if otr pula, end up 46500, cash.

So end up i back to the new registration bike.
My 2 friends just bought the z8,both registered 2013 ,about 20k mil, price about 26k , so to me, new z9@50k is more worth..

Appreciate if any can clarify my doubt about the manufacturing year...

because old, unsold stock. even my bike was bought in 2018 but manufactured in 2017.

Unfortunately, manufacturing year is what ppeople look at to determine resale value.

You can try scout around to see if any shops have newer stocks but i think its a little unlikely. even the newer colors launched last year/ this year isnt available yet in malaysia... the newest versions are the red and the green.
ive seen quite a number of used Z900s around that price... not sure why. maybe coz the bike wasnt that expensive to begin with.

Thx bro~
You bought 2018, year made 2017, is acceptable, but, now is May 2019..

Earlier i though so too, but after saw my 2 friends bought 2013 Z800 WITH ABOUT 25K (NEW IS 45K RIGHT ?),THEN i "found out" their price (big bike/kawa) never really drop a lot.

Initially i plan to find 2 years old z9 with 35k budget but dint see any, since 2013 z8 also selling 25k, so i gave up.

maybe that rm36k bike, is 1st batch with...36k mileage too... laugh.gif
