class 2. license and ownership advise please.

[fraggershell]

good day to all,

 

i have stopped riding since 2 years ago after a severe accident and gotten a car since then.

 

well, cut the long story short.

 

car too ex,

parking is pissing me off! not just paying for it, but finding one is a *****.

and, i missed getting to work on time.

 

anyway, my license stopped at class 2A and hope to achieve a class 2 license.

but before me doing so..

 

just wanna check these few things.

 

1. how long does it take to obtain a class 2 license?

2. what are the ownership cost of a class 2 bike? i am looking at R6 or FZ6R in terms of insurance and road tax.

 

thank you and happy CNY

[fraggershell]

or shd i just get a GSR400 or a S4 Revo and carry on life? haha

[thrasher]

ur already riding a vtec3? stick with it dude. for singapore roads, its the most convenient.

[GuiNNeSS]

Stick with the class 2 a. unless you wish to tahan thru another year of only 12 points demerit points.

 

Class 2 like class 2a, requires only 3 lessons and a test.

hey bro, for cls 2 it could only take about 1 week if u can chiong all the 3 courses..it took me 2 weeks just to complete mine..if ur looking at fazer6, its a gd bike man, cheap too in my opinion but for the maintenance wise its about the same as keeping a super 4, 4 bottles e.o, oil filter and 4 spark plug..

 

hope u make a gd decision man..

[ChaoPuzzy1968]

1) Class 2 is same as Class 2A, 3 session then TP. Cant remember if got theory lesson. If im correct, there is 1 theory lesson.

 

2) Well for your current condition i will not suggest an R6 since you say you have severe injury. But you knw yourself more. Cos i would suggest a much comfy ride like an FZ6R if you were to choose between 2. But please be minded that class 2 road tax will be slightly higher insurance interms of bike age and your licence age and your age.

 

Maintenance wise for a class 2 but below 1000cc will be still ok like a 2A. Not too drastic amount.

[louisyhw]

i believe u can obtain ur license between 5-7 weeks consisting of 3 practs 1 theory...

no more fazer6.. only got 2nd hand..

[aRcHeR]

class 2 dun have theory.. 3 pracs and then TP..

 

TP usually about 2 months waiting time on average.

[DM]

dude, just follow your heart. i say take that class 2, get a used class 2 bike to cut down on expenditure and live your youth with no regrets! when you get older and had enough of riding, you can always sell that bike and drive again

[barefoot]

i can still see the little dim flame of passion in your heart.

mai tu liao, time to fuel up the flame

this lady is urging you to ride her

[prettymussel]

just go bikeshop walk one round. confirm straight away inspired to get ur class 2.

 

can go Loois, they have quite a nice aircon showroom!

[fraggershell]

thanks for for the advises.

 

even thou i am driving, in front of my dashboard is a Ducati 1198S model. so you shd know what i mean.

 

i miss the wind blasting in my face from the front.

i miss the moment i wacked my S4 until my FF touches my nose.

i miss the moments where i would meet up the usual gang for the usual gelang patah hoon kee, petronas and ramly.

 

the only hurdle now is family and wifey.

 

i have nv considered drz400. seems like a viable option.

[aixin]

As you ve stopped for 2 years....it is always goodness for you to go thru the class 2 course before considering riding again. As riding courses provide you the necessary upgrading / developmental skill of handling bike and proper technique of managing the road condition thru managing yrself.

freaking awesome.

 

how much for insurance 25years old with 4 years exp?

 

is DRZ hard to maintain? fuel consumption? any idea?

[RageMyDream]

If u have the time and cash (anyway not much) to spare, get the license. Who knows u may want to get a class 2 bike in future

[jtzx]

freaking awesome.

DRZ is a super cheap and easy to maintain bike... more or less maintance of a 2B bike.. If u can maintain SP or Kr u can maintain that too..

[SparkerS1]

get a drz 400

gd:thumb:

i have nv considered drz400. seems like a viable option.

last time i also nv consider drz cos i only wanna try out only but found out tat it worth the money and quite practical on SG rd

Well let me show you the REASON why.

wanna buy my drz few yrs later?

is DRZ hard to maintain? fuel consumption? any idea?

insurance for 2nd party should be less than $1000 bah, must ask for quotation.

FC, maintenance wise pls click on my sig below

If u can maintain SP or Kr u can maintain that too..

 

in fact its cheaper, FC also better than kr/sp

[bernardk]

I really wish i got a chance to try the bike. But we cant in SG damn. Anyway your bike so bling i how to buy sia hahahaha.... Must strike toto first :D:D

[darkhorse2009]

Haha! Make me wonder if i should go to take 2a when its time. But cost of running a 2b bike still the cheapest.

[SparkerS1]

Must strike toto first :D:D

belanja makan ah bang

But cost of running a 2b bike still the cheapest.

 

if no intention to upgrade, might as well keep riding the bike for transport, cost saving:cool:

Belanja makan? Not problem dude haha. Not my first time to belanja hahaha.

 

Well cost of running a class 2A also not that scary la. If ppl can own i car i dun see any problem in owning a class 2 bike.
