Nothing much actually.

 

Most important warm up engine before you ride hard. If you ride normally it's fine.

 

Once warm up the temp bar will be at 2 bar. Should be the same for 200, mine is the 300.

 

Just remember to go back for your first engine oil change.

 

Ride normally like your X9. Don't worry about run-in.

Ride like you steal it. No tender loving. But be sure to warm up properly.

The 200i has got no ABS. Fuel Consumption wise, I think parotae can advise you.

Eh fuel consumption for 200 i don't know leh

 

@Sianz_OwL84

ahh so you don't know anything about run-in, that maybe a good thing.

 

Anyhow choose a site for topic on Break-in/Run-in

I wonder why Motorsport didn't bring in scoot with ABS. It may help with the sales IMO. I will gladly pay for ABS. Give an option maybe?

A lot of people will thank you for ABS and i've heard people who swear by ABS that they will only own bike/scoot with ABS.

I believe ABS can save lives.

[SGGH]

wah. the ABS seems good ah. haha

[neojava]

yea.. ABS is a key feature I am looking for in bikes every since I have skidded and fell during e-brake while the road is wet

Have asked motorsports/chong aik whether can pre-order/book abs version for downtown and apache rtr (they bring in that too)

was given a firm NO

 

No choice, now aiming piaggio x10 125 (ABS + Traction Control) or KTM Duke 200 (ABS)

[SGGH]

is the ABS version more expensive? why don't bring in?

[neojava]

Normally abs version is more expensive by about 1k.

 

Which I don't mind paying at all for safety. Buang 1 time sure cost more than 1k lor.

Bro, its not that MS do not want to bring it in.. Its that we are not provided with that model. Only heard that the ABS versions will come in in 2014.

[Sianz_OwL84]

1) Bike cover for DT 200, What size should i buy? any cheap and good recommendation?

2) Where can i fix cushion/back rest on my box for pillion to rest on?

3) Is it possible to mount an additional foot rest for pillion?

1. With box cover nicely 3L. 4L if want to wrap bottom so cat won't go in easily.

 

2. What box are you using?

 

3. MS have the aluminum kind. Should be very ex.

 

Another way is to DIY
