Hi all sifu,

Can you guys recommend me 2nd hand motorcycle for a daily commute in KL. From Permaisuri, Cheras to Bukit Damansara, Hartamas Roughly 11km~22km per way. My budget is quite tight 1.5k Cash since I have a lot of commitment already to make another loan and I'm planning to use motorcycle instead of car is due to savings utk kahwin hehe.

Currently I'm looking at the Demak Evo Z (older version like lc135) and the price is quite good and the spare part we can use the Yamaha, but is it really worth it to buy this Demak brand?

honda future is the worse quality bike. that one reason boon siew change honda 125 kapcai name back to wave 125i.
wave 125S have better quality than future. i have it and never open engine after 10 years. In fact wave 125S have more horse power than new wave 125i.
no coment for yamaha.

If want to buy cash why not looking for those 2nd hand direct owner bike? you can have better gauge on the history of the bike prior.
