he has since gave up riding.anyway dun tik he has the rider's touch.

 

since he manovuere.wah lao! very dangerous.wrong posture and blind riding= crash. anyway , do tke care guys.see ya.

rvf is a very nice bike.but honestly in my view , cbr's 400 fireblade is stronger on performance wise.but lastly,its a damm pity these beauties had stopped production.

[TooToo7]

RVF is prettier!! :lovestruck: that's IMO...

actually..i was refering to the different advantages of the two bikes.

cannot say that CBR peformance wins base on what? horsepower? topend?

RVF has got its own traits... midrange, handling, pickup.

 

so cannot really say.

 

and yup u are right, rider skills is impt too.

[vroomvroom]

jus wanna ask .. does finance company provide fire and theft insurance coverage?

apparently, i got my 3rd party fire and theft ins from mitsui at 600 plus .. but later the shop gave me a mitsui third party ins cert only .. i asked them how abt the fire and theft .. they told me, it's under the finance company and that they will send me the cert separately.. it's been abt 1.5 mths liao .. and i haven't recieve anything...

u all rich man~!!

 

thaz y i think i will happily stick to my beloved Revy for years to come.

 

class 2 is a real treat.... but i'll be eating grass everyday.

 

and to think that some ppl pay up to $3K for thier bike ins every year all for Ins COmpanies that dun do sh*t and have to wait donkey years for any claims to come thru. this shouldnt be the way.

 

ahhh..fark them.

 

Live and enjoy your ride.

 

Life is short, live it once, live it without regrets.

 

cheers.

they tok cok.

 

is u ask for 2nd party, which is 900++ if buy from mitsui

 

but they tell u $600++

 

so what they do is they help u buy 3rd party from mitsui which is around $398.

 

then they eat the rest of the money.

 

so if ur bike kanna fire or theft then they will pay u.

 

but whats the chances?

 

so they eat ur $200++ for free loh.

 

and in the end if u didnt get the real 2nd party certificate from them and ur bike really gone, they can say not their business.

 

so what i do is that since they say is finance company provide, then u better hurried to the shop and ask them which company, and u go get the 2nd party certificate urself, if they cant give u a good answer like which company or what, go to CASE immediately.

 

most probably is that if the CASE ppl really come, they will only most refund the $200++ cos, is they try to eat ur money wat...

 

so most important is that u must get ur 2nd party which is the fire and theft ASAP.
