Previous shortage due to AP issue... This is the new AP holder.. but seems like issue is persisting.. not sure why

It's in the pipeline... but since it's a CBU model, arrival will be affected do to unresolved beurocracy in BSH...

When I was working there, public will get the news earlier than the staff...

i think first things first - got to catch up with some old friends in the Wing and expect good news on this topic

for the pricing, given the legacy and reliability of Honda, the bikes will still sell like hot cakes (from what i can see today, Honda booth is the one that attracted the most attention)

my feedback is only on the ADV350 which i was eyeing on. the price point is ok for me as it is not too far off an upgrade from what i am using now (XMAX250) but i am surprised to see that it is so small and compact (which is not suitable for a 6 footer like me)

As a Honda fan - kinda insulted u compared us to "Cap epal" hahahha. (sorry Cap Epal fans)

for the price - Xadv is as above ..
for the NX500 - not too far off the CB500 it is replacing
for the transalps.... i think that pricing is kinda sweet spot for those wanting an alternative to the Africa twin (which is almost double the price)
kinda agree on the Hornet thou - with that price, have many more option

This will be sold only in bigwing thus I kinda confident the price won't run far from the RSP

But no guarantee if someone buys from them and resale it at higher price

To your point of 30k below... then everyone will flock to this bike instead of Xmax or forza...

Hmmm fair point...

Interested to know more on the adv 160 engine swap

Apologies but i was referring to the latest offering of Forza 250cc.. which is priced at 27-29k OTR
i dont think its fair to compare with Zontes as Honda has the legacy but i wont deny the bikes from china (or MFORCE) is ramping up to corner the two taikor in MY (Y and H)

but you are right, ADV350 requiring B full will be one of the major turn offs for a wider audience

the SOP is ini macam

Bikes above 250cc, usually is only sold to Big wing - for big wing to get the bikes, they need to submit the waiting list
if the CBU bikes landed at sub dealers is either they do something illegal (get the chasis number and report to BSH) or they bought via runner and resell it at their shop(the bike might be registered, but they can interchange the numbers to avoid detection)

yes, fast bike is appointed bigwing to temporary resolve the AP issue, but it seems they only satisfy their own waiting list (from what i can tell as i have already left BSH at that time). A chat with my kaki kepak has informally informed me that the issue is resolved (Fingers crossed)

Xmax expensive, but got ppl buy at 30++k

personally, price for ADV350 is in the sweet spot(if you get it from bigwing and not scalpers) but i dont really like the bike cause it is really small for a maxi scooter.

put down a booking for the 750 instead and farming for money while waiting for the stock to arrive....

my exkolik said settle d la..haha

ADV350 is damn small....
when i sat on it, the comment was - seems like the bike ride you better

the ADV 350 so tiny..... got the 750 instead.

Never understood why the ADV 750 was so popular even after working for so long in BSH.... now i know why

Its a big bike that handles like a small bike.... so nimble and satisfying

The only short coming is the tangki minyak yang kecik ... so far
