2B 4-stroke Sportsbike Comparison

[Danny Danial]

Recently I just got back my license and didnt know which bike to get..So I list down all the factors I need in a bike..

 

I wanted to get a bike to use for atleast 3yrs n maybe more till I get my class 2 license...it must be very economical as it will be for transport for the long run and head-turner aswell as I like the feeling of riding a big sportsbike...performance wise I dont actually mind as no matter how big it is, its still a class 2b bike with at most 200cc..thats is what im looking forward to when im getting class 2 in the future...by having said that I manage to narrow down to these 4 bikes...

 

1) Aprilia RS4

2) Yamaha R125

3) Rieju RS3

4) Honda CBR 125R

 

I went online to compare this 4 bikes and this is what I found...

After much consideration, I finally settled down with RIEJU RS3 125...Im very lucky to get a 2nd hand RS3 from a guy in SBF for $7k few weeks back considering shop is selling for atleast $10k+ and im very happy with this bike...it has most of the factor im looking for in a bike...firstly, most of the riders here in singapore have not heard of this brand before thus making it unique in a way and often riders mistook it for a class 2a or even class 2 bike before they spotted my p-plate of course...many also has the mindset thinking that since its a rare bike, spare parts are hard to get which is NOT TRUE...it is readily available in a few shop across singapore...basic maintenance would be the same with all 4stroke bike for eg engine oil n spark plugs..top speed personally ive tried with a stock engine was 130km/h...good enough for me for singapore roads and of course it can go faster if I decided to modify it which I would rather not...and the best part it, im really really happy with the fuel consumption...with a 12litre tank I can go for atleast 500+km! The furthest I got on one litre was 48km! I can say its very worth it for me and I am sure to keep it for long...

 

P.S. this thread was created base on my personal opinion...Others may vary...dont be shy to input ur views/opinions aswell...

 

Thank you for your time

actually top speed not very important, acceleration is more important when getting out of sticky situation. anyway congrats on getting your sportbike.

nice post for new people around looking for suggestions. i'm personally riding super4 and somtimes i feel riding 2b is more practical in sg cauz i got alot of summon for speeding when traveling at normal road with 50-60km/h speed limit. i usually go over the limit without realising it cauz just change 5th gear already 50km/h... change to 6th gear almost 70km/h already.. lol

I dont quite like nkd's headlights...from getting this, might aswell I just take out the fairings from the sports model...furthermore, this version only come in 5-speed....I wont be surprise if Rieju will have the scrambler version in a year or two...just like megelli who got all 3 version in 125cc...
