hehe bro i'd rather keep our numbers small to hold on to its uniqueness
that;s one of reasons why i switching from the GSR lol. too many liao. besides, i come from an off road background...i mean i used to trail alot and love the ruggedness and go anywhere attitude of an off road bike. so i feel the versys would be a cheaper alternative to getting a BMW GS hehe. maybe when i hit 3k salary i'll switch to GS lah not now man
btw Lee said bike most likely being assembled today but still awaiting COE bidding which is today as well i think. latest should be late in the week i guess. will post here for updates
hahaha i saw the bikes already !!!
the Blue and Black (your one Gisser) only .. today afternoon lunch time..
all fixed up and looking all so chio.. the black one looks cool dude and the blue one very sexy one only sad thingie my DaGreen not around stillsad sad sad
~Biker Till I Die~
What more can i say ... i smiling ear to ear hahahhahahahahaha finally!!!!!!!

Elaine said she'll try get the bikes registered by thursday and hopefully sat she'll be able to hand the bike to me! hehe can't wait. already got the high bend handlebar and BMW grips waiting for her hehe.
damn!that green one looks awesome in person.lucky you,dintigger.with bellypan and hugger with the same colour scheme,ur bike will definitely turn heads.by the way,what shop is that in the pictures?and what other kawas arrived?

gisser your blackie is already ready to deploy liao IU unit all fixed already .. mine a bit longer cos i retaining my number plate so i think next week then ok but i can wait hehehehe the wind sheild and headlight guard you got it liao ? i got mine already from motovation reviews by adiriot is dame good lah 180kmph still can hold one hand no wind buffetting your head. BTW the bmw grip you got from Mtechic?
Mamat.. unfortunately evershine only got 3 unit this time and all 3 was booked before the bike arrived and from what i hear from Mr Lee he still got many more ppl who is in the waiting list.. and i saw only 1 concorse ... the shop is loois..
so you got the ER-6 you mentioned ? i read it is a fast devil ...
~Biker Till I Die~
yo dingigger, ur original kawasaki green is very nice
maxwell hawker centre
heheh cheeko ...i really excited liao!!!
~Biker Till I Die~
Yes!! Finally Dintigger's Green bike is here! If not meet me only he will whine and whine and whine.... hahahah. Yesterday he kept on smiling here and there. Dude u still gotta work on ur smile...heheheh.
I gotta agree, Green and Kawasaki is synonymous. Beautiful
hey guys i just went down to check out my bike at the 3rd floor of loois motor...and damn i have to say it looks much more impressive in person and the pics u see on the internet don't do it justice!! too bad i never got my candy burnt orange color but the black was my 2nd choice. the green is a real stunner dude hehe. blue i find a lil off but hey beauty in the eyes of the beholder right??
nah still have yet to get the headlight protector. maybe u can pm the contact to get them. the grips i got from bmwchoy over in the west side, but the guy like snake ah - agreed at 22 bux in the ened paid 28but still cheaper than most shops which sell at 36 bux. getting my handlebars from m-technik and puttingon the grips this sat if all goes well. yeah!
tears of joy
seems the versys has got a following or new converts.dats gd news.i'm getting the Z750 nxt mth ,godwilling.the only piece at evershine.hopefully still avail. i'm dealing thru Dili.machine price offered cheaper.btw i think the versys has ABS.the Z doesn't
The versys OTR by Mr lee is 17500 rite, seems like a gd bike for sg rds
Mamat the Z is a street fighter cool machine... would have gotten it if i am not such of a fat old uncle (big tummy la) prefer the 750 to the 1k cos it is lighter and stunning.
Gisser for the wind shield and headlight protector you can email info@motovation-accessory.com.sg i think he still got stock.
bmwchoy got shop in jurong right ?? i think i go get the grips from him lah if more then 28 then i stick to stock
you getting a box? i tot of going to chong aik to get the HB Jr top box want to join me so might get a better price.
if i got extra cash i might be getting the race sheild would help with the flying stones while going up north..

i have started to like parallel twin engines ever since i ride my tmax, Very nice power from it, not too powerful & torquey too, good for city riding & also touring, somemore engine more compact.
If change exhaust, sound will be very nice too
maxwell hawker centre
wow bro i think for this month i can only do up my controls i.e handlebars,grips and handguards - all the race shield stuff and topbox gotta wait cos low on moola haha!! I'll prob be getting the happy-trail skid plate as well next month but might be a risk shipping here cos actually they dun ship to sillypore. but damn they quoted me 201SGDMamat the Z is a street fighter cool machine... would have gotten it if i am not such of a fat old uncle (big tummy la) prefer the 750 to the 1k cos it is lighter and stunning.

maybe we can use this as an example to see how well or fast the kawasaki agent can order the parts here & get it repair & up & running.
Cos i dun really have much faith to depend on them
maxwell hawker centre
There is not much choice, if you really like the bike, you have to bite the bullet and get it first. Then look for other means to get the parts. It has really exploded in terms of popularity in europe and now the US. The accessory lists confirm will be growing. One way would be to stock up on essentials like gasket kits or might I suggest the current group pool some money and share the resource like stocking say two sets of essential spares and whoever needs it, take and reorder so there is no waiting time. This way the money outlay is less individually. It relies heavily on mutual trust as money is involved and if the one who uses the shared resource doesn't do his part in reordering fast enuf.maybe we can use this as an example to see how well or fast the kawasaki agent can order the parts here & get it repair & up & running.

alamak i jus came back from refuel
Hi guys the versys is a brilliant looking bike. comparing the specs between the versys and the dl650. quite similar. Am trying to decide between the 2. The Vstrom has a slighter bigger tank and good fuel consumption? However versys lighter and more compact looking not to mention the cool rear suspension. any pointers to tip the balance?
well tonight i and adiriot going to refuel at GP petronas about 10 pm maybe ... anyone want to join ... foresight and cheeko you both are welcome to join
Gixxer you free?
~Biker Till I Die~
wish i could go GP for topup petrol....only got mpv. taking my class 2 in may after a haitus of 16 years between licenses : ) mid life crisis.....
hahaha same same i also mid life C... anyway comparing the 2 Vs'
the strom is heavier even for the 650 comparing to the Versys and the FC for versys is bettter so for a 19liter tank it is good enuff la about 22-24km/liter.
as for comfort ..it is always a personal thingie..
before riding the DR i find the egronomics of the Fazer is ok and also the super4 but after being on a DR my opinion changes .
so you see difrent ppl see things diffrently so it is up to u ..
what is best is to test ride both bike and you yourself decide.
as for me haha i am spolit by the versys now.. and in the future to upgrade will be a tedious task for me cos i be comparing it to the versys as power is not a factor for me .. for me it is the whole experience.
you bring yourself to versys.co.uk it is a forum and the ang mos compare a lot to other bikes .. some of them unbias comparision .. it is a good read if your have lots of time
~Biker Till I Die~
thanks for the info. imho, the versys is a sexier bike, design wise (upsidedown fork, crazy headlights, bad ass looking exhaust). price also identical to dl650. ABS on both bikes right? well i still have to pass my class 2 first b4 i decidehahaha same same i also mid life C... anyway comparing the 2 Vs'

i dont know bout the ABS on the strom but i know the Versys has it and i already test it on the 2nd day with the bike... thanks to the LTA appointed ABS testers- Taxi drivers.
hahah we not there far behind bro so far all the versys owners i know now are above 30 hahah i am 33 this year... old man that prefer to lim kopi and talk bout sammyboy than going to disco hahahhaha so u a samster? hahahahah
