naked you can buy with under RM 25k:
-z650 abs
-z800
-cb650f
-xj6
-mt07
-mt09 v1
-street triple 675 abs


sportbike you can buy under RM 25k:
-ninja 650 abs
-cbr650f
-cbr500
-xj6f
-daytona 675
-naza blade 650

list above based on listing from mudah

kawa 650 (ninja and z) is the safest choice IMO since it has abs and japanese bike

but if you want 4 cylinders then go for cb650f or xj6, though 600cc 4 cylinders might feel a bit boring since you need to rev hard to get their torque

can also try triumph 675, if live in kl they have dealers in batu cave and pj to send your bike

Thanks!

Anyway, any opinion when comparing controllability and comfort?

tbh you gotta try them to see if it suits you.

I can only comment on the kawa 650s and st 675.
both is pretty comfortable during my short ride experience, low seat height, lightweight less than 190 kg, no issue lane filtering in city and enough power to ride in right lane on highway

Hai all..

Slight update. I finally pull the plug and gotten myself a MT07 V2 after my 250 keeps asking for more “stuff”. Got the bike on father’s day and feeling was surreal..hahaha…

Been enjoying the bike but still adjusting myself to the more naked riding position and wind drag. The extra power is surely felt as I could now comfortably cruise without the feeling of damaging the engine. Did minor servicing by myself just for my peace of mind. Only wish I got extra cash to upgrade the absorber and also the exhaust system.

Btw, the manifold piping is surely an aftermarket, but how do I identify if my akra muffler is fake or authentic?

Well if you are buying it online, buying it from the official distributor is the way to go.
If you are getting it used, unless they have the original receipt and it is sold really cheap best to just assume its fake.
I don't know how to put it to words but if you are holding original and fake exhaust side by side, you can easily know which one is fake.
Ori exhausts have 'more substance' feeling. Bigger, heavier, not cheap, cleaner welds.

Of course there are some AAA copy exhausts that are really close to the ori ones but those are pricey also.

If you just want a better sounding exhausts then it doesn't really matter if its fake or ori, IMO
To my untrained ears they all sound the same laugh.gif
