Just wondering is this blade a good bike? I saw one parking nearby our office, model blade 250 red color exactly the same on the brochure our fren posted here...
But y colleague mention the bike is not really good becoz the engine small just body try to build to look tough..
well, i'm new to bike..please share some opinion on yours.
me with my Blade R 250 - year 2009 ( with faring):
- my top speed can reach 170 km/h (with stock equipment) with my weight 70kg....if i change the equipment...it can go until 190 km/h - 200km/h
- blade cornering is the best in it class if you upgrade the tires. (shinko tires are great when it warm or the road is dry and hot....not suitable in raining day )
- got spec of superbike 600cc - 1000cc such as dual front pump brake, high level chasis, digital meter, adjustable foot stand etc.
- sound similar to Ducati V Twin engine ( Ducati Monster bike )
- heavier and more steady ( if you get struck buy a car/ kapchai....you cant fell down easily...if you know how to maintain it laa)
- if you riding with a passenger at the back....you will look steady and balance ( compare to Kawasaki 250R...the bike is small...look funny when ride it with 2 person)
- long distance and short distance reliability ( i used my bike to go to my work place every day and once riding it to Phuket, Thailand)
- other than that its so worth to buy a Hyosung GT Comet 250 @ Blade 250R with the price of RM 20,000.
- maintenance is not so cheap and not so expensive ( of couse laa...if you want cheaper everything...go for kapchai
)
p.s: its so big until a policeman stop me because he said i got B2 license not B full for the bike.....he confuse and shock...he taught my Blade is 600cc - 1000cc bike ....hahahaha
