Hey everyone! Long time havent logged in to LYN, and just noticed this Zontes thread.

Just wanna share about my Zontes 310 T1 spoke rim model after about a month plus of using it.. So far, im enjoying riding it! Its so comfortable, fuel consumption quite good too. Im using the bike daily FYI, to and fro work, errands, anything.

Long trips, managed to do a last minute trip to Mersing with my wife, we're from KL. 500km one way. Riding was a breeze, even wife didnt complain anything. We made 3 stops along the way, when arrived Mersing jetty, our butts werent sore, so that means the seat comfort is quite okay. Also, with 3 boxes, a rider and a pillion, I managed to get a top speed at about 164km/hr. I think can reach the 170 speed cut eventually, but perhaps maybe that'll take quite a while. But from 0 to 160, not bad for a 310cc bike with full load. Our combined weight should be about 140kg. Exclusive of luggages.

My decision to get a Zontes 310T, is because of the technology, and also my own fear of riding a 'big' CC bike. Its my first from a kapcai. When I first got it, it really is about as light as a kapcai handling wise. No 'culture shock' for me at all when I first took it from my dealer.

Currently my odometer is about 3500km. Did my second service already at Orange Bike Shop Kayu Ara. First service was in Sentul, the big KTM shop, corner lot. I know a guy riding the first model of 310T, clocked mileage of about 40k km edi. Asked him about maintenance and all, he said he just service on time. No other issues. There was this once his exhaust was leaking, but that was during 30k km. Good enough for its wear n tear for me.

Btw this youtube review of my bike was done by a vlogger that contacted me:


Anyways, theres too many things to share although the bike is still new with me, but just to share some tips:
- When you first take your bike, ask your dealer to change to a new battery for your keyless remotes(PKI / transponder). Youll be given two sets.
- Double check all the electronics. I have no issue with mine at all so far, but I did check them before taking it back home
- Other normal stuff to check like the keys for the boxes, coolant levels, oil engine level, etc.
