If i recall correctly, ER6N should weight no more than 180kg with fuel. No need to do any weight training, practise the techniques required how to pick a fallen bike would do.

I've never ever ridden a bike before i bought my bike, even a kapcai laugh.gif
I had to bring my friend together (whose father has a superbike) and let him rode my bike back home.
Only after that I let him teach me how to use the clutch,brakes and gearing and everything about the bike because i didn't know anything about it..and later that night I already hit 160km/h along DUKE highway without any problem biggrin.gif
eventhough my bike only 250cc but it is more than enuff for me, for now tongue.gif

Hi, is there any good place to shop for full racing suits? such as alpinestars, dainese, knee sliders etc, which they allow us to try? any shop to introduce?
*
Alpinestar recently open a boutique in Genting Klang, it's partly owned by Iktikadraya and Mecinda. I was informed by Pak Su of Mecinda Racing in Pertama Complex.

The other shops u can visit, Hodaka Motoworld. They're located in PJCC.

Motostyle is located in SS15.

These are the usual shops I always visit smile.gif

T600, Motoworld PJCC got a RS Taichi NXL207 for RM2.6K. Unit on display is in Euro 48. I wanted to try it on, but did not bring my undersuit. If you want other RS Taichi stuffs, they can bring it in as well.

I am eyeing on the black/red NXL207

If you want Dainese, pro shop is located at TTDI Plaza - same location as Naza Ducati showroom. You will be spoilt with choices and friendly staff. I even went in with my Viet made Air2Tex to their showroom and it was all smiles from them.

Arlen Ness & Berik - you can spot many varieties at Motostylestore SS15.

Lea Kraft Setapak - custom suits from scratch. Tailor-fit to your liking and measurements.

All the 4 retails I mentioned above, I have first hand experience with them and allow you to try them on and service with smiles! Unlike some others - dont mention la..

Ninja is just sports touring Bro... Not supersports... I dunno how to categoriez superbike, but i think Ninja250r is not a superbike bcus superbike are usually those supersports/hypersports type of bike... Ass level same level with ur wrist if u view from the side, which means aggresive riding position whereas Ninja the rider sits quite uptight... Furthurmore ninja only 2 cylinder, no vroom vroom sound.... Like mesin jahit one only.. blush.gif


Added on November 30, 2011, 5:13 pmAprilia RS250 is a baby supersports... But it's 2 stroke... Preng preng sound... But damn its fast around the corners...

no its not.
you see, the 250R was made to look like a sports bike. Nothing wrong with that.
But its still a 2 cylinder 250cc with a very casual riding position.
I dont have pictures but if you look at the power band and torque graph you will see that this bike is meant for city riding/confort/easy to use power.

This bike is not actually new, its one of the latest in the ZZR family.It had many names all over the world,
Ex250, GPZ 250, ZZR 250

But rest assured, its not a superbike.

Alot of people argue what actually is a superbike.
in summary, superbikes are:

1. bikes that are for racing ONLY and MUST have a road version.
2. if 2 cylinder (850-1200 cc) if 4 cylinder (750-1000 cc)
3. must be 4 stroke engine.

example,
a Yamaha R1 is a road bike. You can modify it extremely and put it into the superbike category (take out silencer, take out lights, take out mirror etc etc)

You know MotoGP? These bikes are not for the road and do not have a road version. They are NOT superbikes because they are considered different. Yamaha M1 is a bike only made for the MotoGP.
Something like F1 racing. F1 car is not the same as Supercar correct or not?

LOL. Dont try to explain what superbike is to others. Because most people simply doesnt want to listen.

In the Europe/USA, superbike is a race bike. Even a 1000cc bike are called "sportsbike" there.

But in racing, "superbike" are a 1000cc bike, "supersport" is 600cc bike. Look at WSBK and our own MSS.

For Malaysian, all loud and look fast bike are a superbike, I always insist on others that my Blade 650 is a "street bike" not a superbike as they always call it.

why is it too good to be true?

you go upstairs at the harley davidson store, they also have a HD Sportster on display.

but HD sportster belongs to "face lifted version"
Ducati diavel is "brand new year 2011"

beside that, that is not a showroom, just a shop selling bags and stuff in KLCC.
