Just wondering if there was any advantage in choosing 125X over 125S.
From what I heard there was only cosmetic changes, and 125X only has kickstart version currently. |

QUOTE(jonwei @ Jul 22 2008, 12:58 PM) i also think that wave X better la.....eventhough rm200-300 more than wave S I think parts shouldn't be a problem lar.. how much difference can there be between the S and the X ? When i went to my dealer, I saw 3 X model already being sold.but when i 1st ask the dealer there...they strongly advice me not to take waveX wo...but better take wave S.....cos can easily get spare part they said wave X nobody buy 1 wo...scare next time, honda discontinue this moto...then very hard to find spare part wo i also admire LC135...but too expensive.....since its my 1st fully owned moto......better take wave X la..... wa...wait 2 weeks alr ah i bought the white 1.....i dunno whether i wanna use white or black rim to match which 1 do u think better? Suggest you take black rims. Top white, bottom black.. yau ying.. hahahaha... this is your first time riding motorbike? |

Anyone think the gear changing points in the speedometer are too optimistic? The engine will be screaming in pain if I follow them.

Foot gear shift lever (the downshifting part) is small, and too close to the bike's body. Bound to put down the sidestand instead of downshifting one day!
Furthermore, when refuelling, have to depend on sight ah? The hole is so big, it won't be like a car's where the pump will automatically stop. |

Sometimes when 'tekan'ing the fella from traffic red light.. the engine will die on me... what's the cause ah? Too abrupt ah?
