Dudes,

I'm planning to buy a scooter (it's stylish, but will it be able to support a person with heavy weight? I don't want the tire to puncture halfway while riding), but I have not much experience in motorbike; spare parts, tires, oil/lubricant and etc.

How much is the motor insurance yearly? Is this necessary?

Do the insurance company have this services where if my bike broke down or tire punctured, will they come over to assist or bring the bike to the nearest workshop? I wouldn't mind paying as long they have this services.

Is it a good choice if I pay by cash, one whole sum?


I would like to know, what are the things that I should be aware of, like monthly service check.

Motorbike does not need to change engine oil right? But we need to add this oil, from time to time. How many litres should I pour in?

Do I need to fill in battery water like car, or other place that needs to fill in liquid.

Can you guys please recommend me a good oil brand, tires with good grip and etc.

Thanks, sorry about asking a lot of questions at a time.

What are the few motorbikes, are as good as the old Yamaha 110 or Suzuki RGV? Or the latest model or current favourites. Preferably without clutch.

Budget RM5K, RM6K max.

Yea, need a bike, can't stand the fuel price anymore.

2T is mostly for 2 stroke bikes...like 125z

full tank for FZ150i is RM22 now.b4 is RM18-19 doh.gif

I see, in terms of performance any much difference between 2 stroke and 4 stroke?

Still affordable RM22. tongue.gif
