Newbie looking for help and recommendation

[scooter 99]

Hi all,

 

Looking at purchasing a scooter. Mostly will be from home to work, short ride to shopping malls, approximate distance per travel is 10 to 13km. Had narrow down to this few choices. Please advice on maintenance and also cost if possible, plus your best choice and reviews.

 

1. Vespa 150

2. Honda PCX 150

3. Suzuki burgman 200

 

Thanks all.

Why not consider Spark or X1R? Very small bikes with very good FC and low maintenance, if you want something with a bit more powerful then I suggest RXZ.

Thanks for the reply. Let me check out the model you mentioned. But looking mainly on scooters.

 

Thanks again

I really don't think you can go wrong with the bikes that I have mentioned above, only thing is that RXZ is a 2 stroke bike which needs 2T, it's the fastest if not one of the fastest 2B bikes but if u want a bike with very good FC and very cheap maintenance then spark or X1R. They are better then scooters I guess, very easy to filter through traffic and good riding position. You can ask anyone, surely will hear X1R or Spark for sure. Anyways good luck! I'm still taking my 2B, currently stuck at Lesson5 at SSDC.

Comparing cubs and scooter after the recommendations. What will be the difference? Storage space, riding style, handling. Etc. Any member can advice and state the difference?

 

Most likely will get PCX if is a scooter. But for cubs, maybe a yamaha MX150i or wave. Will need help on feedbacks.

Thanks for the advice. Will look into it. I saw some pcx 150 with white exterior but red seats. Nice. Is there a option for 2 tone?

What are you waiting for, faster go book all of them then get a TP date.

Dont give up, you will have your license the next try

In my opinion, Don't rush your Revision wanting to faster get to TP. Take it slow and steady, Keep calm during TP. You will PASS.

 

Back to Topic, Could consider SYM,Piaggio or KYMCO. They have good scooters.

PCX 150, fuel consumption quite low.
