Bike for 2A

[Dirtclimber]

Yo all, was just wondering.....i'm in a dilemma of choosing a 2A sweetie!

 

Should i go for a Suzuki GSR400 or a Super4 specIII

 

Does ducati have a 400cc bike? Monster? I cant seem to find one thats 400cc...

[sikonesis]

ducati has a 400cc monster, but its only made for italian & japanese markets. some are imported here.

 

if u check out the garage sales, there's at least 2 monsters and 1 gsr4 on sale..

more choice if u're looking for a super4..

 

[Dirtclimber]

Oh hey thanks....i remember the person who sold me his bike bought a 400cc Ducati from minerva...

 

But when i went to the website...it didnt show any 400cc...only the big stuff..so does it mean the monster 400 is an old model?

xjr 400....

[Dirtclimber]

hmm wat does the XJR 400 looks like? i still like the sleekness of the GSR400 though....

[AhGui]

I would recommend the GSR400 coz im riding it,

 

Smooth and powerful, big enough for my size....

 

And also better then the super4 becoz my consumption so far is about 200+ km per tank...

 

If u really like the monster, i think it looks sleek too, but rather i not choose that coz it is european model....

 

As for the xjr 400, just go to Comfort Driving Centre @ Ubi, then u look at the black bikes they use, that is the XJR4

Get Honda Hornet 250. I selling mine. See link below.

[Dirtclimber]

Haha thanks all....as for the hornet i dun think i want it....i prefer 400cc haha

 

So Ahgui how much does the GSR400 cost now? Full price and installment. Its officially legal already right? The last time i went, i think Looi's just got the bike....have not got LTA approval but they are taking orders already. GSR400...yum.. haha

It is of coz legal...

 

I got mine from Southern motor...

 

Total price of the bike is $11000 + $70 road tax + $1000+++ insurance (frist hand 22 years old) + All the other misc charges, come up to $13110... got $901 COE also...

 

I downpay $2110, then loan the rest pay 5 years... so comes up to about 243.xx per month....

 

You see how much u wanna downpay... and see how u gonna wan to pay..... then decide lor..

 

But i think go southern buy better, cheaper then alot of other place le..

 

But after sales services not that good...

Must beware that Suzuki does not bring in GSR400. They brings in GSR600. So GSR400 are parallel import. Up till now dunno wat the difference between parallel and from agent. Apart that, Parallel they brings in from overseas not direct from agent. Usually manual in Japanese.

 

Anyway it depends on preference. GSR is a new bike and the design is different from others. As for maintenance and performance wise, should be OK. As for accessories, S4 have the most accessories available. If you are upgrading to a Class 2 bike, get S4 2nd hand. After 1 year can sell away already.

 

GSR400 horse power is about 48 and the GSR600 is about 90. The difference between the price is about $2k. No 400cc bike, if modified can match a Class 2 bike performance.

[hs400]

go for xjr..insurance only 150 for 3 party..maintenace wise is cheaper then super four..

Guan Hoe is the Agent for Suzuki and they did not bring in GSR400. GSR 400 is a PI bike brought in by Looi and Mah Pte Ltd. So far, Loois is doing a good job for the 400. S4 accessories are cheap and readily available but they are less refine as GSR 400. GSR400 is a bigger bike and surely get you ready for class 2 later on. The cheapest price so far was $13110 (info fm this forum) while a 600 will cost u 16k. The HP for Jap 400 bike are cap at 53hp that includes S4 and GSR400.

i got 340km before the petrol sign start to flicker (not reserve yet!) on my GSR400.

 

But i got 222km for 16liters of petrol when i blasted to melaka last weekend. Fuel consumption varies. some people say high fuel consumption la this la that la. it boils down to how u ride ur bike. as for maintainence wise, its the same. 4 bots of EO, an oil filter, 4 spark plugs.

 

insurance premium varies too. doesnt mean ure paying $150 others will be paying the same. dont mislead people. wat if a 19yr old who jus passed his 2A n decides to buy an XJR because of the low premium u (hs400) quoted?

[Dirtclimber]

haha yes i agree on the insurance thing haha

but hey thanks all for the info and help!

i think i have decided on my next sweetie haha

GSR400 here i come baby!

[tooned]

oh i've been thinking of a s4 or gsr400 too!!

seems the gsr is getting a lot of good reviews!!
