i don't have the details but i can assure you the cost will be higher than your run of the mill honda's and yamahas and kup chais. this bike is highly tuned and fussy. not that it will break down more often but it will require more more attention to maintenance and cost of repair parts might be high due to the fact that you can't just pick em up from the usual stockists and have to go to aprilia specialists. the bike is fussy about 2T and requires you put good stuff in and the power valve is quite sensitive and if you don't clean it often and open it often it will certainly jam and cause extra headaches. per service its probably par with other bikes but it will require more frequent servicing.

 

I don't mind the frequent servicing and all because i think I'm quite a fussy guy when it comes to these things. As for the costs of each servicing, how much will it generally cost? You have a RS too right? :)

Rijac, don't give up. your fundamentals are very strong, you sure pass. You came so far. I think its worth it.

 

Its not just a 2b but a gateway to all the class two bikes where all the fun is.

 

Anyone knows how does a sports bike feel? Long time ago I sat on friend sports bikes and remembered the hand like very uncomfortable and the fuel tank like very in the way. Its been so long ago. Is the sitting more comfortable than a school ybr. Does it feel very stable to be sitting on it?

 

Will never ever forget the first time I officially sat on my SP (with a 2B license) and rode it. Felt great and still feels great. Lol. Okay HONESTLY, the first time I rode the SP I felt nervous, and completely clueless. I moved off with two legs down and couldn't find my footrest till a few seconds later (they were racing footrest and were rather high up unlike school ones that we're all used to) As with all things new, it takes a little time to get accustomed to it but that's normal isn't it? I hated the racing footrest then but I wouldn't replace them with anything else now.

 

The vibrations on the handlebar does make my fingers numb after awhile but it doesn't take anything away from the bike.

 

You should and ought to get a two stroke bike before they become extinct! :clap:

 

Noisy but proud! :smile:

mine is under layup until i pass the test. for basic servicing which is replace gear oil, spark plug, wash and clean carb, clean power valve, lubricate chain, clean air filter is about 50 to 100 bucks depending on where you go and what brands you use. for e.g. a normal gear oil should be under 20 bucks to change. a spark plug is 10 to 20 bucks. these are the basic. at certain intervels need to do piston rings and top overhaul. the other thing is must use good quality 2T which will increase you running costs. and don't break your power blade. thats over 200 bucks to replace. lol

Wah... Quite a lot to do. How often do we have to change all these?

the riding position more lean forward, so its slightly harder to maneuver for slow speed especially u turn for class 2a class2 sport bike if full lock turn the handle bar almost touch the tank already, so imagine u turning like that. but sport bike cornering, weaving in traffic, much easier. can lean more.

 

But if u sit on 2B sport bike, dont feel shiok as riding class 2 sport bike especially 4stroke like rs4 125, r125, r15 and cbr150. may be 2 stroke feels better. But i think 2 stroke bike is a nuisance, the sound of the high pitch exhaust, the smell of exhaust amd the smoke. Sorry guys just my opinion.

 

Bro, ur gf passed already?

Lesson 3. Hmm. Slope fig 8 n crank ah. Slope easy.. If you known your bike biting point. Fig 8. Maintain throttle don't ease n off.. Scare fast? Press rear brake more. Crank? Throttle lesser than fig 8. Use rear brake if too fast

slope. just remember to check away from the Kerb (you can be either left or right so check inwards away from the kerb). they want to see engine braking on the way down the slope so be sure and release your clutch fully on the down slope (half clutch on the way up after moving off). to move off - procedure 1. check mirror; 2. signal away from kerb. 3. keep pressing foot brake but release front brake and throttle up and release clutch to biting point. 4. when bitting point is reached check back away from kerb then move off while maintaining your half clutch until you reach top of slope.

 

f8. secret is to keep a constant throttle (more better then less) and control speed with rear brakes.
