As per title, I am newbie motorcyclist without any prior experience in it aiming for B Full.
I have few questions as below:
0) Should I get proper riding boots, glove, pants, jacket and obviously helmet before starting my lesson? if so, how much would that be cost generally for decent kit. Don't mind spend a little bit more on safety kit since i forsee that jatuh bodoh would happen.
1) Is there any biking gear shop that can be recommended where I can go as newbie and try it out instead being pushed around for the sake of sales.
2) Is it necessary to get an personal bike to train on other than going through the bike at Driving School?
3) Is a 150CC sport bike (R15/GSXR150/CBR150/Etc) considered a good bike to begin with? I am considering this over kapchai since sport bike had different riding requirement which I think its transferable to higher CC bike should I choose to do? Or I should be better off with proper big CC bike like Dominar 400 for a start. I tried on those 250 bikes and I find it to heavy for me (skinny arm) hence looking at those 150cc sportbike.
4) I am skinny build guy but 170CM height person and 65kg, should i be worried with the heavier bike that was used in driving school (I think Jaguh and Vulcan are used in the place I enrolled in).
5) Is there any advance riding course outside that I can attend once I got my lesen? I have Keith Code book on the side but I dont think it would be helpful prior unless I got the bike myself. I think I am more like "learn as you go" type of rider.
6) This may sound silly but my research suggest to me that bikes price varies between dealership? and availability is depending if one is paying full cash vs someone taking loan (I am more keen on cash payment). Sorry for such Q since I am coming from car world where prices are more or less fixed as per RRP.
Think that what I can think of now.
Look forward for answer from fellow members.
*Seems like now I can get L lesen straight away without doing undang2 test at JPJ, just need find time to convert my lesen.
yes getting proper gear is highly recommended. for extra safety get the one with proper CE rating. glove, pants, boots can cost up to 3k depending on what you choose.I have few questions as below:

on jatuh bodo topic, getting a bike protection is recommended (crash bar or frame slider) i've had jatuh bodo on my 200 kg bike and the only thing that saved my leg from getting crushed was a frame slider holding the bike.
those 150cc bikes you mentioned are decent bike to begin with. although i'd say go for 250cc so you can get used to the weight when you are upgrading later.
for advance classes, already got someone asked before

not sure about prices between dealership, but what i've seen from mudah, these shops prices are pretty similar for the big bikes that i looked for.
