but actually, if dun upgrade oso can lah, cos rvf is really a very unique bike.

 

the engine sound really very nice to hear when tuned properly.

 

the riding posture is very good, feel combined with the bike.

 

the air duct look cool too.

 

pro arm does look nice on it.

A FS plate OTR cost around 12k+ while a FT 14K+. Older plate FP around 8k+, FN 7k+ and FM 6k+. The price u pay for a newer plate can get a class 2 bike.. for older plate have to think abt replacing wear and tear parts also.. so for long term investment, a newer plate is better.

 

Btw, rvf spare parts ain't cheap also.

Hi RVF rider!Need some feedbacks! I am planning buying one of the 2 bikes la..Yamaha WR4 and Honda RVF! Recently riding a Yamaha WR2, but bopian getting sick of scram although got go track and stuff! still cannot tahan scram slowness and also some of my close friends all riding racing bike and planning to get a RVF after the get their 2A.

 

So counting for first to last..i most likely will be the first person that will get the RVF. So just wondering, you guys can help me up with some things as we have little knowledge on RVF . I know RVF have low-mid...no top! Max speed should be 180km/hr. How about others? What are the things you guys like about this bike? Pro-arm?

 

How about the maintainence of the bike? Regular serving, after riding like 4000km..spark plug , 4T, oil filter and what? for daily riding... part easy to wear and tear anot? part is expensive...but how expensive is expensive? :confused: (example how much u all spend?if somethings goes wrong)What are the things that is needed to replace regularly? usually how much?Im 20 this year...around how much is my insurance?

 

Thanks in advance...Soon i may join the RVF family hehe or contiune my slow ride.. :sweat: but still considering..research on WR4 liao now RVF...pls help!! hehehe

RVF top speed is not oni 180.the 180 is because there is a restrictor.juz hv to do something to it den RVF can gt up to 200+(nv try b4).parts r x.for ex. one sai tao will cost u 400(at HKL) for a brand new one.

u will get use to it one, no worry. I 1st day got my rvf also feeling uneasy but 2nd day i started to adopt it already cos while i on my way home in the middle of the expressway, the bike's throttle respone sunddenly like no power and engine muted. Thought wat happen, then i know my feul tank is empty.. From tat day onwards, mileage is my guide, take a peep at fuel tank before ride is my habbit.

[Non Stop Racing]

then how do i test my mileage n see when the bike reach reserve fuel oh ?

[acidhurt]

top up ur fuel tank fully with ur regular petrol, reset ur mileage meter and off u go till u hit reserve lor, then take tat mileage when u hit reserve as a guide line.

[Non Stop Racing]

ooic tks man, but if hit reserve my bike will indicate low fuel somewhere on its meter or i muz manually see from tank ?

 

check out this rvfster !

[PauLaBuSa]

hey anyone knows where can i get a single seater for my rvf and roughly cost about how much?

[PauLaBuSa]

oh and by the way , it is possible to hit above 180km/h .... if you remove the restrictor pin in the meter, the meter hand will go over the 180 mark.... and above tat, the speed is base on argaration alreadi....
