any review on this 1300cc bike . saw it in hong leong . thinking of buying it .

 

I'm riding the 1900cc MidnightStar and it's a superbly awesome bike and performance..I think i mentioned in the earlier post that i used to ride the RoyalStar 1300 and to give some feedback on the Midnight 1300cc, well 1stly it's lighter than the RoyalStar...We are talking about without any accessories ya...So bear in mind that we are talkng about dry weight....

 

Of course the look is awesome but what goes with it is also an added benefit like it's a belt final drive...Push-rods....nice headlights and the speedo meter is cool too but as for performance, i guess it'll be on a slight advantage comparing to the RoyalStar but as you know, all new bike models are like that untill when you ride it for quite a while, then the actual performance will start to show, either upwards or downwards...so, it all depends on the way the bike is handled and how the rider maintains the condition of the bike...

 

Overall, the Midnight 1300 gets 2 thumbs up for it's outlook, and additional add ons (belt drive and push rod)...but jus to be a bit biais, the Royalstar has the royal look whenever it goes...so, all in all, it's a tie for now until someone can provide a better review on these 2 bikes...Cheers..

Well, I'm not sure about the 1300 but mine can go up to 340-360km in total distance using 17litres...But the 1900 has a fuel meter for you to monitor the fuel level unlike the 1300...You have to monitor the distance travelled before you top up your patrol similar to the RoyalStar...Anyway. both 1300 comes with an indicator when your fuel hits the reserve mark, as for that you need not be so worried unless you are always in the Malaysian highways everyday...Singapore riding is kinda alright coz almost everywhere now, you can find a petrol kiosk...

Hey guys, for more updates on the 1300, go into youtube and type: MIDNIGHTSTAR 1300 and you see some great clips of it...and also, for the 1300, there's loads of aftermarket parts that you can put on...so good luck and hope to have you both in the midnightstar family...cheers..
