is buying fz16 worth it?

[daftziq]

Is fz16 good for a long run? Cause i want to make it as a side bike and get ktm4 when i got my 2a license. And is there any reviews for M1 Motoring?

I don't own one but i have many friends who do.

It's a damn popular bike, so spare parts will be plenty and any shop will know how to fix.

 

Bike wise: kick-starter + e-starter, single cylinder, air-cooled. As simple as an engine gets. No oil filter, just change oil every 2000-3000km. No coolant, less things to leak and to go wrong.

Economical, 30-40km/L depending on your riding style. Looks decently good.

 

Only thing is price now: expensive. Used to be cheaper but all thanks to COE and popularity of this bike, prices now a bit inflated (8k for second hand when you could get brand new Pulsar200NS for about 7k a few years ago. But means resale value of the bike will probably be good when the time comes to sell.

 

Don't know about M1 Motoring, but considering it's such a popular bike, maybe try to get it cheaper off a private seller? But to each his own, your circumstances might vary. Gd luck.

No doubt it's a good bike, but thanks to COE, getting a 1st hand fz16 will cost you a bomb, I would recommend you to get a 2nd hand one instead, 7-8 years COE left, or like what imjustin say, get a pulsar, but beware, research on pulsar first, you will see many reviews on the net, including this forum, then make your choice.
