I think the question on whether it is good or not ultimately comes down to yourself.

 

1) Affordabilty

2) Light weight but sturdy in design

3) Strong firm hinges for flip up

4) the helmet parts and shield should not rattle at high speeds

 

Previously, i bought a RJays Tourtech.... it was really affordable about $150-180(buy from LAB!)

 

Also tried the HJC from Motoworld, when i was looking for a full face for my wife recently...I think it was the CL-Max and there's also the SY-Max both they are selling at $130 (on sale but till 20th Jul...THIS SUNDAY!!! Hurry!!! At Kaki Bukit...)

 

I ended up buying another Shoei Multitech for her, solid, firm, will not rattle at 220km/h speeds, good strong hinges when put up, protected me from stone chips flung from the road.... but killed too many a bug!!!!

i'm looking for a big bike yet wan a fuel efficient bike..tot street bike like fazer can save more fuel..

 

With reference to your needs....

 

the rule of thumb..

 

more Power = less Fuel efficient

 

Larger capacity = Need more fuel

 

The TDM900 is a proven "fuel efficient" and some can vouch for that for a big bike, nacl aptly mentioned that their " power " is greatly reduced compared to the Fazer. The power from the Fazer is indeed commendable imho:cheers: .....at least for me!!

 

But you want fuel efficieny because u aim to ride about town and commute to and from work?? Or you need the bike to do errands??

 

Big bikes will not be your cuppa tea/kopi/poison......

NEED HELP!!!!

 

 

how to get from first toll at 2nd link to woodlands checkpoint. . . . .

 

 

the other day i tried this - after paying toll at 2nd link - i bypass 312c. . . went straight all the way towards pasir gudang. . but saw some s'pore plate bikes exit putrajaya if i m not mistaken and i was like wondering where did that lead to and lo and behold i met up with them at caltex (b4 jb cutom) - all 8 of them relaxing smoking. i guess there is a shorter route than wat i took. so here i am wondering

 

 

 

how to get to johor from 2nd link?

 

can sum1 help. . .

 

thank u

 

The way you use is the most fool proof way to go JB from 2nd link.Will not get lose.

 

The cars using small roads leading to JB.Alot of turns and traffic lights.

I saw a gal pillion using that last 2 weeks at custom.looks good IMO.Do you know how much it cost?Is it light?

[James996]

take a look at the following models.

 

yamaha tdm900

kawasaki er-6n (or er-6f, fairing)

 

as far as my research tells me, they both can reach 24km to the litre.

 

the tdm has 20 litres of petrol. so u'll easily reach 400km wif just 17 litres.

 

the er-6 has only 15.5 litres. but 300km to reserve is possible (12.5 litres).

 

no other class 2 bike i know of can reach such figures (given practical riding conditions, not a steady 70kph).

 

on the other hand, neither bike has more than 80 rear wheel hp. if dis is important to u.

 

TDM is no doubt a good transport class 2 bike.I can easily get 400plus km (Res can reach more than 80km),best mileage is 530km per full tank and thats spore traffic riding,highway blasting,etc.

 

 

FZ6 is another contender.

one full tank can reach 300-350km then Res(Res can reach more than 80km).

[Xgrind]

Good choice!

It cost at $180 but the boss there quoted mi $150 if u r really interested. But i have to do more research so i didnt get it. Feels abit heavy but when u wore it, not too bad bt look quite big leh. Actually the design look the same as rjays tourtech. Onlt branding different. Btw its at chiap lee.

Tank capacity?? Its 18L

 

Max mileage till dry.... 200-280km depending on how you whack....

 

Is fuel capacity and fuel mileage your criteria in choosing a bike?

 

I guess not many people like to read and do a search on website on these info ... its been mentioned countless of times... i believe i answered this very same question of similiar nature twice.....in the last 24 hours.

 

But i will keep going till someone is willing to take over..like i took over from some of the others....

well I can't expect a litre bike to 'save fuel' like a 400cc so i guess i have to 'handle the truth'. just wan to know how much milelage i can stretch b4 empty if i purchase this bike.

Cheapest to date if memory serves me right is $18k OTR at BP. But then again depends on yr age and NCD.

Is it that expensive??

 

I was looking at it and i could be wrong..... but its $130 when i saw two grey/black..... full faced flip up from HJC at Motoworld.

 

If it was really $250... you could double that amount an get an excellent Shoei Multitech (not approved as well!!!) And you'll probably do not need another helmet for the next 5-10 years!!! Unless u have road rash..... or u changed color bikes!!!

 

Consider the Multitech if you really want a good helmet.

 

Someone is also selling a HJC FF Flip up....on Garage Sale

 

I was there @ Motorworld and met a couple of the guys there. We had fun... made our purchases and of course created a ruckus there!!!!

 

All in good fun!!! I will be heading there again (Kaki Bukit) after work on Monday... to complete my shopping and collect an item, i ordered!!!
