my first post ! :)

been reading in this forum and found most of the ppl here very helpful.. hope i can find answers..

being a bigger size .. i was hoping to get a bike that'll look not so cartoon when i ride

after reading and comparing only the picture, found that

1) comet

2) roadwin ( is this smaller or bigger than the comet?

3)ta200.. ( though i still find this kinda small for me)

 

so.. any other bike that i should be looking into?

speed and be home 5 mins early or 7 days late.

Comet, Roadwin, like you said, but please note they are small CC and you need to rev more / spend more on fuel.

 

Suggest trying Pulsar.... or for better and sportier performance, Yamaha FZ150i and R15. Fuel injected - never need to tune - part of Yamaha LC4V engine series - easy availability of spare and in future, performance parts.

 

TA200 indeed is meant for smaller riders, the ancient rear suspension design gets squashed easily. Although I know someone who is MUCH bigger than me on a TA200 that he wants me to convert into CBX performance mode. I think his weight makes the bike damned fast! Lol :p

4) Cagiva Mito

5) Cagiva Planet

6) Aprilia RS125

7) Aprilia Tuono 125

8) Yamaha YZF-R125

 

The Planet and Mito are the same, except that the Planet is the street version of the Mito. Same goes for the RS125 and Tuono 125, they share the same engine and frame but the Tuono is the street version of the RS.

Judging from your other choices, I'd say the R125 fits in the best as it's a 4-stroke bike.

On the other hand, if you're big sized. No offence here, but you might want to take a look at the 2 strokers as they have much more power than the equivalant sized 4 strokers. Low end torque and power is compromised with a 2 stroke but once you get higher up into the rev band you'll have more power making it easier to ride and overtake.

i tink CBF150 is also quite big and taller than most 2b bikes...

 

CBF with LeoVince full system, touring package, BRC remote programmable CDI and carbon fibre parts = pwnage :D

 

Bigness - if normal bikes are still too tiny well, there's always X9, MP3.... just watch the maintenence...
