500cc and above. or full B class license.
TS, if you've got the guts and $$ to spare, go for suzuki hayabusa instead.
this is one hell of a bike. and the ride height is more towards an asian size too!

kawasaki ninja 250r should be a better choice due to kawasaki's proven pedigree.
i personally test ride the the blade 250, well, it look bigger than the kawasaki ninja,
but the top speed is nothing to shout about. i only managed 14+ km/h at open road and the engine feel like it can't
go any further. any blade 250 owner can comment on this?

ps; maybe i am expecting to much. can easily go above 250km/h in hayabusa.
but even a slighty modded tzm 150 easily hit 150km/h. been naughty on both machine before

even a 2nd hand 2003 hayabusa still cost over 70k!

maybe the older cbr600 will be just fine....
i used to ride on old zzr250 before become addicted to a friend's hayabusa. there is no replacement for displacement!!!

i bought myself a txrt when i was still study / working part time. later upgraded to the zzr250 for more 'umphh'
had try the voyager but it was damn heavy
a friend bought a hayabusa from nz bike a few years back..... 'pinjam' a couple of times
speeding on bike 'x kena saman' tapi now 'x nak speeding dah sebab x kahwin lagi. nanti kempunan'
mirinda hayabusa susah dilepaskan

was doing well over 250km/h with hayabusa on the ns highway a couple of times during my
errr.... 'rempit days'
neither me nor does my friend 'kena saman'.
nowadays, i am more into monkey bar
getting more than enough strain on the back trying to stay closer on the sports superbike

exactly!
speed is fine. but stupidity kill!

maybe you're too slow already
my friend got a summon while his bike is not even moving.....

used to ride one sometimes ago. it was belong to a friend who brough it in using a student ap or something.
notorious for leakage on the engine gasket cover but it was a hell of a ride, anyway!

someone quoted me around 85k for a recond 4 years gx1300 hayabusa last year.
you may check with NZ bikers for the latest pricing.
