Hey! Any PvP lately? hahaha.

Just looking into it again, mid-life crisis you know

I've quit WoW for so long already, kinda (self denial lol) on the verge of quitting gaming entirely since very limited resources like time and money.

Maybe we can kapchai ride! I got an EX5 at Melaka and a EX90 at KL XD

Yeah I've stopped WoW too but I still like to PvP in games in general so lately I've been doing GW2 PvP hahaha.

Ah, I've got no bike at all atm! And yeah so far this CB650r is what attracts me the most.

But I'm a very short dude sad.gif

Haha yeah thinking if I should get it in cash. But at the same time I wanna save more for renovation too.. sigh decisions.

And also I was bit afraid that I'm too short for bigger bikes.

Like this, still ok right? laugh.gif

is it just me? i find from front view the cb250r looks better than the 650 cuz of the big ass air filter on the side of the headlights but the halo ring headlamp looks damn good.
*
Ah, I know what you mean. Also the CB250r looks more like the CB1000r and the CB125r looks more like the CB650r.

But I totally dig the look on CB650r though laugh.gif

Looks good!
More than ok as you're not struggling to tippy toes.

Go loan especially you have the choice and needing to do renovation.
Even without renovation, you'll need some cash for riding gears etc.

That's true... hmmm hahaha

yeah, rumour has it that the hornet will be replacing the cb650r and prolly not gonna come in to our market anymore. if that's the case, then that's gonna be a masterpiece too.

They just released a new one.

Headlamp looks like CB1000r's.
New tail.
New air intake.
New meter.

Wonder if it'll come here.

Yeah definitely predict some slight price increase.

Just don't wanna regret what if the bike comes in like after few months or within a year or so.

Likely possible scenario?

What would you do if you were in my shoe?
*
You might wanna ask yourself do you need the bike sooner or later?

If you need it soon then just get the current one because the new one ultimately is the same bike, the ride will feel the same. Only difference is the looks (slightly) and those can be changed if you ever so wish to.

If you don't need it soon then probably just wait it out.

Honda design now all going backwards...

The new Honda Hornet 1000 looks like a 10 year old Z1000 sugomi. And just look at the way they stuck the dash on. Lol.

To think they replaced the gorgeous neo retro CB1000R with this....lol.
