[FuLL of SoRRoW]

take cbr150...

very easy to maintain...

4 stroke.. low fuel consumption...

very light to carry also if fall down.. *this part i say choy*

[neuyihs]

hmm...think i should get first hand or second hand bike???

how much is the price range for cbr 150 first range?

[rattlesree]

get a 2nd hand if u looking for short term riding, ie, getting a 2a bike.. if not get a new one if u looking for long term onwership.. new one is ard 4.5k.. go to boonsiew website for bike specs and price range..

[neuyihs]

really?is it heavy???later accident*choy*cannot pick up my own bike.xia suay.

[peekabuubuu]

hi there. depends on wad u looking for lo. if want speed chiong sports bike (nsr sp, kips etc.) if u want 2 save fuel, den get a kup (wave, spark etc). if want comfort get phantom. but most girls look good with scooters (vespa!!!). especially since u say u r short. scooters r lightweight also. but i advise u against scramblers cos most of them very tall and heavy. u aint gonna look good if u havta tip toe when stopping at a traffic junction. haha. juz my few cents thot. ur choice though. if u got anything 2 ask juz pm me cos i seldom come back forum. cheers!!

by the way did u juz pass ur tp test??

[honam24]

I recommand sparks 135

agreed or get a kup zai(not sports bike though) if u want it small otherwise can also try sp or kips should be fine but they r 2 strokers

[piggyfeng]

getting 2A, buy 2nd hand.

Long term riding, buy 1st hand.

 

For Transport, get kup zai or paulsa(damn i forgot the spelling)

for comfort, get chopper(ie phantom) or skipper

For style, new RS125.

 

for short term and sporty, sp or kips

 

dun go for speed, no use

 

 

[squallgoh]

here's a list of suitable bikes, IMO:

1) Gilera Runner (2-strokes ones are quite fast too), easy to handle oso

2) Honda Wave

3) CBR150

 

no. 1 and 2 u wan can add alot of mods make until v nice... wave cheaper.. cbr look more sporty

all quite light

[neuyihs]

hey all~! thanks fer all ur advice! ^ ^ i think i might wanna try sp thou i feel that it might be abit heavy for me.havent got my license yet,but ah,super gan jiong over it.pai seh. hehe.thanks all thou!if got any good lobangs don mind can tell me.i'm going for first hand.and actually if i wanna buy bike oso quite difficult,cos i reallie know nth bout it.scare ppl cheat my money.haha. so i think reallie need alot of advice on it.

the new RS125 is not value for money, just abt 3k more, u can get a brand new S4! but i guess some ppl would prefer to go for a gucci than a bonia.

neuyihs not sure if u can still find new SP in e mkt. Mah motor has but not sure if they r sellling and price wise is about 6 pr 7 k depending on which particular version. perhaps if u r still keen, uou can chk w them. honestly i dun think it's worth the money, might as well get a new kips and price is about 5k. if not get the cbr150 which u can find new ones too. price wise am not sure.

[j1605198987]

cbr 150 is 4 stroke... sp 2-stroke... fuel consumption... sp is more... but sp oso more powerful... bike outlook oso different.. u can search around and see for urself.. sp heavier if im not wrong..

u havent have license so kancong looking wat bike to buy already... hehe... anyway... for the 1st bike i recommend the kapcai.... cheap, light weight, easy maintenance, very suitable for female.... and etc.... riding a sportbike right after u get license is not a good idea... the riding position and power delivery is totally different... .

[neuyihs]

haha...sry lor.kan chiong ma.cos i tink i dono anything so must know abit more first...den when i get license can go buy liao.

[Jocelyn]

sp nice i also ride sp.. im not beri tall either abt 158 haha.. i got my sp stright after i got my lincense.. 1st 2nd time ride it is really heavy.. but will get used to it after a period of time.. jia you for getting ur lincense soon
