dear owners... my experience riding bike has been limited to the normal ex5 and honda wave kapcai bikes...and only once i ride Jaguh for a while before selling it off...

have been admiring RXZ and FZ150 type of bikes when i was younger last time and now looks like R15 is the latest model...

any idea if i will struggle to ride this type of sports bike? previously i tried a bigger cc sports bike type from my friend's bike and i find it hard to handle...can't even feel comfortable turning the bike in a corner... but probably that bike was way too big for my experience....will it be easy for me to transition from kapchai bike to this R15?

thank you and appreciate inputs from the owners here...

then shouldn't be that much of a problem.... since the R15 is quite small and light....

but, a very big but, the riding position is very aggressive and it really sucks as a commuter bike. if that is going to be your only bike then just be aware that it is never going to be comfortable as your other options.

can it be your only bike that you ride to work/school everyday? ofcoz its possible. there are even people who commute on 600cc sportsbike.

i'll go out on a limp to say that the R15 is one of the best 150-ish cc of any bike category currently on the market, but it is also deeply compromised.

is this going to be your commuter?
