I see you've rephrased your queries/questions..But its kinda offending to SP riders..At least to me but I'm not an SP rider..Anyways..All sportsbikes maintenance quite ex..If you want cheap and less maintenance bike go for kup kias like wave..X1 and etc..Or even an RXK..Good fuel consumption..Cheap parts and maintenance..

exactly SP is a gd 2B sport bike.Maintance wise is ok. Buy time check carefully and make sure e bike is in gd condition B4 u buy. i ride SP B4 it is gd bike to play.

Also comes down to riding capabilities. Dont expect the bike to stay in one piece of you're a careless rider who skids/drops the bike often.

 

With regards to the bike breaking down often, it's also wise to do a thorough check of the condition BEFORE purchasing. Any Genuine motorcycle parts are not cheap (Not Counting aftermarket), hence anything that needs fixing will add cost to your purchase price.

 

I'm not a SP rider, but I ride a RS125 which is "reputed" to breaking down easily. I'm a rider who takes care of his bike and I've not had any major part failures for both my RS125's.

 

Always bring a friend who really knows about the particular model you're buying.

(This may sound offensive but. "Don't bring along a big cannon who can talk big about bikes but don't really know anything"

not true. if u ride normally dun whack ur bike everyday. nothing will spoil so easily. maintenance wise.. is the same stuff as other 2 stroke bikes... 2t.. change eo.. change sparkplugs.. lub chain..

 

if u didnt buy a problematic bike.. den i dun tink it will give u much problems.

 

if its hard and expensive to maintain, u wun see so many sp on the road le

[NightPhantom]

get to noe more pple who noe abt SP loh.. then u will noe the wonders of the bike..

 

maybe FC abit more than the rest.. but for the price its a pretty good looking bike... maintance what? EO spark plug? reguarly lube ur chain.. what else? not veri ex wah...

[wait4me]

ya sp= super problematic bike

[edition]

the maintainence wise is onli exp if u dun hav the money ... and i heard for a full service for a sp cost ard 100+ .. which is exp for me la ... but mind be cheap to those that are working lor .. so the maintainence wise is onli exp if u dun hav the money de la .. if u got money will u say exp ?? .. tis is to show that diff pple got diff tinking of money de ... so u mus decide ur budget everytink ...

[ermintham]

are u a student....so far my sp nv give me much problem...it all depends on the bike u get...its pretty a "by luck" thing. so be sure to get an experienced fren if u getting one...

 

maintenence wise also have to depend on hw is the condition like when u bght it...if u bght it at a time when most parts are due for change..then u will say its high maintenence. if ur bike alr has fairly new parts....then u will say its low maintenence....so ultimately is the cond of the bike u choose...

[HondaSP]

hmmm i personally dun think SP is a problematic bike ...

my SP is no problem for me ... i'm a student but i nv feel any spoiling part for my bike except changing of EO n etc thingy ...

 

this bike onli thing is the FC ... abit more than the other bike ... haha ..

thats my thought ... so far i think SP is a very good bike too but i'm upgrading so i selling mine lol ...

[Freddy_82]

in my opinion , maintanience wise quite cheap,, not much problem except for the chain which tends to go loose very often... (maybe i did not oiled it often)..

rode it for 4yrs + before changing to wave.. due to the petrol price rising every now and then...

[rhema83]

I was a NSF when I rode SP. It wasn't making my life miserable financially or anything. SP is not a "problematic" bike. At least there wasn't a bunch of recalls for it.

 

As long as you take care of your bike consistently, it is not going to die on you. If you buy a neglected bike, you may have to pay a bit more at the beginning to replace the worn out parts. But from there on, the cost of maintaining the bike is not high. The point is, when you replace a worn part, and your mechanic shows you that another related part needs to be changed, you should do it there and then - to save labor cost and also to prevent the old part from accelerating wear on the new part.

 

High FC? I could ride for 280km before reserve. Fragile? I brought it to PG many times. Only overhauled once during my 30000km of hard riding on it. Regular maintenance of the chain is required if you don't want it to slacken. That's true for any bike.

 

Lastly, $100 still means a lot to those who are working. If not, why do you see people queueing up for $1 Breadtalk and free milo at Carrefour, just to save a few dolloars? We spend more, but we don't spend unnecessarily.

 

May I also add that riding is not as "cheap" as you think. In fact, it is quite expensive with the rising fuel cost. If you don't have the money, take public. That is reality.

if u go for speed then choose SP, cos the speed is great cbr will stop at a speed thats wat my friend bike does it stop at 120 n can go up already lolz ...

 

if ur upgrading get a cheaper bike like wave ... low FC n low cost can sell after 1 year ...

 

its personal own interests ... some like to have style some like to have jus good engine performance

[Danthearcher]

well, i dont ride a SP either.. but its a good bike, why? compare to my cagiva mk2, parts are damm hard to find, and too exp to get, Sp parts are easy to accuire, and alternative is at our neighbour country, malaysia. Talking bout maintenance, i guess all bikes are the same.. you take care of it like your wife, regular wash and polish, service and stuffs.. everything will go well, but if you whack and punish the bike, sooner or later any good bike will go into scrap.

 

About speed and style, oh yeah, SP is a Yes Yes. If not why i see so many SPs on the road? They have the balanced horsepower and style a class 2B rider can get his/her hands on. hee, sp is a good bike to have your galfren hugging you behind;p
