Was holding my purchases since covid.
Everything went wrong.
Don't know if I ever get the chance to buy one anytime soon.

And yes gsx s750 price was insanely high back then.

Yea, now even if not affected also better just focus on necessity 1st.. Seems like situation is out of control, no one knows what will happen next.. Now me surviving on EPF withdrawal only.. Salary down 50% since 1st MCO.. After pay installments left almost 0.. doh.gif

Hopefully they will stuff the new twin into more bikes. Just like honda.

I'm lost for bikes now....can't seem to find a suitable light/middle weight adventure/sports tourer to replace my dominar.

Born with short legs, almost all the current ADVs are too tall.

The 790 ADV fits perfect and a great bike on and off road but too expensive...almost 80k.
The 800DE and Transalp likely too tall. The Vstrom and versys 650 tall and heavy. Almost all Chinese ADVs are too heavy to be taken off road with short legs. Tracer 7 takde masuk. 500x, good luck with BSH, same for the underpowered CRF250 rally. KTM shelved plans for the 490...so no 490 Adventure. Tiger 900 with low seat is ok, but price problem like the KTM. Himalayan? Too underpowered, maybe wait for the new 450 version.

That leaves the Tiger sport? The Morini is quite decent if it was lower by an inch.
Still hoping if I can turn the 8s into a sport touring bike. Have to see how to mount luggage on the back.  Or fingers crossed for Suzuki to do a 800cc version of the GSXs1000 sport touring bike.

Even my GSXS 750 can be turned to sport touring.. tongue.gif If creative enough, can do DIY.. This and my previous ER6n 1st model I DIY myself.. Or if lazy can bring for shop to do custom.. Both I retain the handle's height because I am fine with it, and I don't want to lose its sportiness handling.. Anyway, GSXS 1000 GT is already out which is a sport touring model..

And gsx-s1000gt getting pretty much universal acclaim from pretty much every reviewer. Side panniers can even fit full face wtf

Yup, attracted to it since it is launched, but too bad out of budget and I need it for work as well coz I only want one bike do-it-all..

Haha, of course you can.

But sport/sport naked bikes tend not to be so ideal for 2up.

My budget is 40 to 50k which unfortunately excludes the GSX s1000GT.

Owh, it's another case then.. Haha.. I'm solo rider, so I have less issues to consider.. Anyway, sport touring models are really lacking in middle weight bikes which makes us have less options.. Only ways is to get a bike you like, and mode it yourself.. sad.gif

is that so.. guess I'll have to live with it  sweat.gif
now trying to get used to the vibration of it, riding at 8k+ rpm footpeg and handlebar vibrate like massaging machine  laugh.gif

Saw earlier on YouTube, the low rpm problem can be solved after full system exhaust + Dyno tune.. Not sure if it works on just Dyno itself as it is not mentioned.. But it does say that the bike is running lean on factory default to meet the Euro4 requirement..
Don't ride fast always, so can't feel handle vibrate much.. But the footpeg, yes.. I usually just ride around 7k rpm under normal circumstances..
