Note the motorcycle I'm buying are all second hand.

I'm selling my 2020 R15 as the power is very lacking, with the money acquired also with a little bit of topup I'm able to afford both of them.

2016 R25 priced at 11k, with no further details. Saw the mileage at 7000 km.

2015 RC 390 priced at 11.7k, free KTM full-face helmet, jacket and gloves. Mileage at 13 000 km.

How's the maintenance, spareparts and reliability? Wow factors?

I need opinions, I only have B2 licence but itch to get bigger CC is catching up to me.

For B full, you might need to invest more time and money for it. And with this covid situation, you might have to wait for awhile before getting it. So even after you bought RC 390,it might takes months before you can ride legally on the road. But if you are willing, why not

My area aren't constantly bombarded with roadblocks and that;s the risk I wanna take but if one day I get caught, what will happen to me and the motorcycle?

Get B full only. You won't regret. Once gotten KTM, go to orange shop at Dahlia for your service needs. Ara Damansara there. Each change cost you under 300 with motorex fully sin.

But I doubt 390 will satisfy you. Get bigger, don't waste time.

As for the shop, I live in Terengganu actually

390 got more torque from what I heard.250 also guzzles more fuel than 390? Right?
No budget laa to angkat 600+ cc, next 2 years maybe

Eh L licence allow the user to ride anything 2 wheeled despite of the CC?
