You are only keeping the bike until your 2A bike or possibly a little bit longer? I suppose you are planning to pay for the machine, road tax and insurance at one go?

 

How much are you willing to put aside each month for fuel, 2T, and maintenance?

 

Coz, what I realised from my friends and all, is that you will definitely be able to come up with the initial downpayment and payment for all that is necessary for the first month, BUT it's the monthly expenses is the one that might make it a little tight.

 

But as all bike lovers will tell you somehow we make it work! (",)

 

Good luck man! And do bring an expert to test the bike with you!

Haha. Why not the new yamaha R125? Or the Yamaha vixion? Or maybe the Honda CBR 125. Why is it when someone mentions 2B sportsbike, it's always stereotyped to 3 models, the kawa kr, honda nsr and the yamaha tzm. There's a whole range to choose from man.

 

Consider your options based on budget, what u wanna use it for and how long u wanna use it for. Be smart, do your research before u do ur shopping.

depending on u wanna pay her full cash or installment.

then insurance, then rd tax, then parking, then petrol, then servicing but SP not much servicing to do unless bad condition.

[Jocechua]

think installment ba..for insurance n road tax how much would it roughly cost??

[ben2306]

insurance for a p plate 18 yo would probably cost $600+ with NTUC 3rd party. road tax for sp around $70 for a year.

hmmm, I'll recommend you to get something lower range like sparks or wave.. If you dun like the design, get a KR den.. Or SP.. If you getting your friend's SP, Plate number? FT/FU/FV? have to know how much COE left? Road Tax? Last FULL SERVICING? Not basic... is full... And lastly, wat is being mod already? and how's the engine when you rev and etc etc... really alot to find out b4 you really buy the bike.. seriously.. when comes to $$$, some people will say.. BUY... it's good.. but maybe 2 weeks later break down.. You ask why like this? Your friend might say.. You suay lor.. haix.. this is life.. Check everything b4 confirm EVEN it's friends...

yeah... and KR insurance is higher because KR accident rate is higher/ SP is lower... let's pray KR insurances will go down lower..

his budget 2k, how to recommend r125, mito, rs125, roadwin r, cbr150 cbr125

[h4hahak1m]

Can pay downpayment wad. Anyway if he's gonna use it long, isn't it going to be a worthwhile investment? Rather den get a problematic old bike.

[SparkerS1]

the decision lies on u, we can only give suggestions n advices

yeah but then again, kr has better fuel consumption compared to SP if stock. u win some, you lose some.
