QUOTE(nargcore @ Apr 28 2022, 11:09 AM) same here,never rode a bike before and just got my Bfull license. Contemplating getting a smaller CC bike as first bike. first bike to ride on roads using sport bike not easy especially when reacting to emergencyHow about CBR250RR? better more upright better to react, even if bigger cc also is ok riding posture sport bike already tekan the forearm during emergency, imagine u brake, and clutch, and trying to steer when engine die if hard brake during emergency without clutch, will ABS still work? I dunno honestly imagine with sitting upright, and you can control the steering better without pressing the body on there that's why daily bike with sport bike, can or not, the answer is can, but which one easy to deal with traffic and emergency, definitely sportbike not the easiest unless you very very good with sport bike, core strength and back all very tahan, when u sit on sport bike eventhough bongkok, but the forearm never press weight on steering, then yes, maybe u can do much better 007SMH liked this post

QUOTE(Vi Merkz @ Apr 28 2022, 12:45 PM) Hence its important to properly learn riding techniques, touring upright or crouching on sporty stance, if you are putting weight on your forearms, you're riding wrong. Whenever you emergency brake on any bikes, you must first remove any pressure on arms and keep yourself stable gripping your tank with your knees. Putting more pressure on your handle bar loads up your fork, and emergency braking is 70% about how much rebound and how much your shock can take before it bottoms out, and hence you dont want any weight if possible on the handlebars. Don’t know la, I cincai say only. I thought bottom out shock during emergency braking is weird means you brake backwards? Or are you try to wheelie while doing emergency braking so can bottom out the shock?QUOTE(technosakai @ Apr 28 2022, 01:54 PM) What do you guys think about used ninja 250? Buy the bike that you really like, and that you won’t mind fixing it if anything bad happens.i'm getting my bfull soon, budget I'd say tight. Max 20k Planning to get a used 250 first just to learn the skills needed to ride a bike on the road. Have 10 years of driving experience, but then again. Car not the same as bike Personally, I would stay away from R25 or Mt-25. They're the same engine.. Tuned differently sure, but the parts are the same. Issues are most likely the same.. With the teh ais engine oil, code 46, hard plastic gear bearing.. I see tonnes of R25 in the used market but definitely won't be interested in getting one. Rather than a bike that you expect to be very reliable, but breaks down randomly unexpectedly and you get frustrated. This above does not apply to Italian bikes because they are meant to break down anyway so it’s the joy you get when they don’t. CFMoto can take a look also la. Ninja 250 also have its issues. QUOTE(technosakai @ Apr 28 2022, 02:00 PM) partly I would say some couldn't afford higher cc's. Can't afford to maintain, hence the sambung bayar culture also. Can pay the downpayment for a B-full bike, but then couldn't afford to pay the instalment afterwards. Some ppl memang plan to JT or sambung bayar the day letak dp for bike. Use few months, then pass to others la. Cannot pass then piang. Facebook also got ppl teach the procedure to piang bike.or couldn't afford the maintenance. Also because of the power of the 'L' license in malaysia. Go get an 'L', stick it to your bike and you're good to go. I've seen a guy on a z800, with L sticker, just zig zagging around on the Federal Highway, rev-bombing people for not giving way to him then points a middle finger. So some people see there's no point in getting a B Full when a L can just get them the same thing.. How much of a difference in cost of maintenance between a 600cc and a 250cc though? I only know tyres probably are the biggest difference due to jump in size. 600cc to 250cc if we say same brand like kawasaki (ninja 250, ninja 650, ZX6R), or Yamaha (R25, R6) I would say the parts are 4x more… For EO, I would use RM40 per bottle for 250cc, but if 600cc, I’d say RM80 per bottle… |

QUOTE(technosakai @ Apr 28 2022, 03:58 PM) Where's CFMoto from? I usually don't trust all these copy cats brands though. CFMoto from China assembled locally, u don't have to buy, but can search for owners club and tune in. you have a point, so make sure their service center is nearby.later spoil scared no parts to fix what do you mean by piang bike? as in hide in chinese? Hide the bike? damn if 4x more than it is still tough to maintain if don't have the budget.. piang = JT = lari bank: sorry i dunno where this term from, but ppl posted before and can search facebook got ppl memang do business deal with such vehicles |

I met one guy, he buys a fully serviced bike, done VC, use for 1 year or less, then maybe just change EO one time, and keep within 12k km, post up to sell. copy paste ex-owner service record, and shift major overhaul responsibility to the next sucker.
he's been through all the zx10r gsxr z800 z900 r1 r6 s1000rr-1234 ducati bikes etc and making profit along the way, and his cost is just for the first bike he actually bought. QUOTE(iambryan1234 @ Apr 29 2022, 05:41 AM) How much would an overhaul and major service typically cost though? Looking at several bikes in the long run, preferably inline 4s because hurr durr sbk sound but am concerned about cost of major servicing compared to twins can check out Kratos page for suspension service recommended every 20kmaybe u can find ppl do cheaper but they're not kratos level engine wise, 2k to 10k standby. can check out price for engine lantai, or price from GMT bike parts facebook selling full engine becoz sometimes worth to just buy whole engine than overhaul if too expensive |
