All R1 model.

Depends on what you are going to do with the bike, is it an everyday bike or just a weekend bike?
Do you ride highway a lot?
If no, maybe 650cc would be more versatile.

Not riding a lot. Probably 2 times on highway during weekend and one or two times on weekday. So its a weekend bike i guess. Even my current bike is a weekend bike

Im not apek yet..

Thats a very bad thinking. Why not just take the bus then? Bus much less got into and accident if compared to a car.

Maintainance can kill you. Easy each time service above 1.5k. Minyak hitam alot 4L dah.

What does the 1.5k includes? I assumed most of the time just engine oil, filter and greasing the chains right?

You need to services alot of things. You ingat maintainance like your 250 ar? It's like a high pressured car engine example, air filter easy above 500. Breakpad alot is ard RM300.

Suggest you go checkout the prices of parts before you buy. Car is a better option. Buy a fast car and not a fast bike.

can handle 250cc no problem going to 1000cc

last time i only have 150cc, naik 1000cc no problem also

but if want to get 1000cc, get a honda cbr, the new one is so nice

but in reality, just keep the 250cc ler. How fast you wanna go in malaysian highway

I think ride lesser means lower maintenance

Superbike enthusiast only car for the look, that's the reality, buy limited edition shoei, you think they really care about safety meh lol

Just go for what you like, life is too short for not doing what you like.
Later 60 years old also feel too old to ride big bike already.

Hmm... no love for 850 triple C bikes like MT-09 or Tracer ?

I have been pondering the idea of getting bike for work but the way people drive here just scares me. Bikers needs to be alert 2 to 3 times more than a car driver. Just to anticipate stunt drivers around them.

My car already at 207hp, not too bad already i reckon.
Air filter and brakepad not going to change monthly. Most also yearly for air filter

Maintenance for every 5000km around rm500-800 is no problem for me.

Haha not yet decided which one. U can always give your review on the mt09 or the tracer if u have one.

Use H2 as daily commute...super light ok, then u can fly to the moon

MT-09 kind a placed itself as value for money bike if you calculate horsepower & price. Agility seems to be it's main selling points here, Tracer on the other hand is a high rider meant for long distance cruising bundled with wind deflector. But Tracer 900 is around 10k more than MT-09 which makes a tough argument to get over MT-09.

The value for money bike caught my attention. But when i search for the bike picture...alamak cannot tahan la see the small head. Like a fragile head going to fall off anytime, dont have the 'strong' look..

dear TS, not to be rude here, just wanna ask can you counter steer? because riding heavy bikes you need to know the basic else gonna kill u. Zx10r is good but if you are heading for track day please upgrade ohlins shocks and dampers.

happy biking, stay safe.

Yeah that's my practice on my 250. Helps me make a much sharper turn. I already gotten used to it.
