Bikers apa pandangan anda? Yang mana lebih practical untuk daily commute?

My usage:
Daily range: 150km-200km
Rat race dekat kastam SG everyday, so engine heat sangat penting
My height 163cm je and currently riding a V2 R25 w no issue

ZX25R - Pro & Con
- No low torque
- Cheaper maintenance (smaller tires, lesser EO usage)
- Fully loaded with latest tech
- Supersport riding position which will kill my back
- Fun to ride
- Weight is reasonable
- I dont think 250cc has idling engine heat issues

MT09/07
- Higher maintenance than zx25r
- Naked bike, easier to cilok but a bit boring to ride
- Less aggressive posture
- Engine heat on idling is a concern
- Very high torque that can send me to 4th dimension in a blink

Since TS wants to use the bike as a daily ride of 200km.
I will say go for mt07.
Will not recommend mt09 since mt09 have higher seat height and TS also concern about maintenance cost.
Just go for mt07, low end torque - easier to handle in the traffic since you do not need to rev high. About 3000rpm already can move the bike smoothly in traffic.
Mt07 is not a boring bike, it's a torque monster. Change the muffler to something more garang and this will make the bike more interesting.


Zx25r to me is a toy hobby bike. Inline 4 is nice but if you really really want a il4 bike, get the bigger cc one.
And high rev bike is not suitable for daily ride through the traffic. In the end you may pay more for maintenance.
I've not even talk about it's riding position yet.
For a weekend bike go santai ride then ok.

So true when he talked about sitting position and feeling on the z900
Best feel and sitting position. This is one of the reason why I didn't get the mt09, gives you the feel like you are sitting on top of the bike. Hate it.




Looks like the z900 in US is detuned to 116bhp

Our z900 here is 124 bhp and 99 Nm torque.

Sport bike never comfortable for long ride. Naked is better than sport bike for long distance ride, but at high speed u against the wind unless got high windshield. Best is cruiser.
Since u like to cilok, then get MT07.

If u like to ride up to top speed MT07 better, easily reach over 200kmh.
