seems good (V-twin), it does offer another choice for 2A ryders.

[apekyano]

the exhaust look like spark IMO..

[hachi]

But looked wicked....

[mild_slevin]

from the various pictures, it possess similar outlook as GSR.
But Gladius might not hit our shores rite?

[starr]

it sure look good. but still, i'm looking forward to ferring bikes.. =)

[mild_slevin]

Lol cbr250rr, yzf-r250?

hope it doess

[naked_biker]

still prefer the gsr400 in this class. gladius looks too curvy, doesn't have the sharp fierce look of a naked.

[steam_gun]

is it here in sg already?

[mattman8881]

is it here in sg already?

I noe that mah motor has brought in gladius 650... I rather they bring in sv400s/650s again...

[kaiq]

SV400 is no longer in production for quite some time liao, only left SV650. Full wet weight is 206kg, heavy for a v-twin.

[skateboy]

its good that class 2A have more variety of bikes.

[stsoh]

seriously i dun understand why suzuki made the back part of front fender so short.
during wet ride, water will splash onto the engine n short the spark plug (common fault of all sv).
isn't the front fender to prevent water splashing onto the engine?
have to change front fender n waste money on a aftermarket fender.

[RustyStar]

FYI, this model is mainly aimed at lady riders...hence the soft styling and rounder edges.
But we can also soup it up to make it into a badass streetfighter.

i think the headlight change to cb1000r headlight wud be nice, cut off the mudguard to shorter if there is and hope thereas a aftermarket exhaust, side mirror change to the type that mount to the balancer(circletypre) vola! wonder how much is it.. and it looks heavy..and if its all red looks like ducati m400

Ya! Cool! Yours? Too bad it's not 400cc... 400cc selection of bikes in Singapore very limited...

Yes, they are two different models. Gladius looks similar to Ducati Monster...

Agreed, from the design I’m gonna concur that it’s designed for a lady rider.
hehe taking a 636 and stripping it to be a street fighter would be a better option.

400cc bikes are underpowered ! lol

[swiftee]

futuristic looking bike. i wouldnt mind having one for transport purposes

[alienalien]

If any nice bros here knows whre to get this Gladius 400....kindly advise...Thanks

LOL that's the point can earn some money from the purchase!

400cc = Grey Import = For Japanese Market
Sillypore, Australia and a few countries are lucky enough to get them. Hence we don't get to see many bikes in 400cc...

It looks good to me... such ergonomics, riders should have a maximum comfort throughout its journey. 400cc pack with sufficient power to ride in sillypore road, decent enough to travel north too. Ease on your pocket money as well.

Can ask at Mah or Looi. Think they should be the biggest bike PI in SG.

[Pandora's Kitten :3]

That's mine if I'd ever get Cls2A... in erm, perhaps in a decade.

But nope, I'd likely settle for a 30 year old Steed, Shadow or something.

[deckard]

looks great, but the same problem is

singapore is super4 land.

parts parts parts.

[xXxRatedxXx]

How bad could it be?? I mean for rare new bikes such as this?

What spare parts could be potentially needed?? Engine parts? Forks and stuff??? Barring an accident i think chains and sprockets can be found here?

I dunno, anyone care to share?...

[Blahhh]

w00t, nice looking bike. Hope it does come to SG, more selections for class2a. Altho I think it won't be enough to trump over the mighty super4

LOL... if those parts are needed I still believe they able to provide you. Just that might have to wait (*subject to availability), about consumables, shouldn't be a problem getting it since they expect to wear over some time. Race back in time, during 2006 when GSR storm sillypore. Many of us have this concern too... but I have seen GSR population grow over the years, partly due to its style and confidence in the machine? No doubt CB400SF still top the chart, but GSR or maybi Gladius shall take the crown somewhere down the road?

[zkull]

no news of this bike yet

[Pandora's Kitten :3]

no news of this bike yet

Was asked to research parallel importing one in.

Then again the other day one of my riding kakis was talking about disturbing someone's "Gladius" in campus the other day? Wtf? Or maybe it's the Big Gladius. (650)

[Juggy]

Still no shops importing this cool model? Sg should have all the 400cc that japan has, their lisence system same as us but they got so much more 400CC bikes to choose form.

[Juggy]

Come on bring more 400cc bikes like this in...

[mardybum]

gladius maximus...sounds like a gladiator's bike

[mild_slevin]

seen one before on the road...
guess the pricing might be one factor which many are concern of.... parts etc... too
