Well, IMHO, there really isn't a class 2 bike that is practical and economical for SG roads, so if you are going for the 2's, its time to step out of the comfort zone. Let passion take over, go for the dream, don't compromise.

 

Take me for example, I skipped 2A and went straight for a Harley, most definitely not an economical or practical bike in any sense. 3 years of extravagance & opportunity cost has led me to think the dream is fulfilled.

Currently not riding, but I'm super inclined to get a kupkia... see how..

 

Anyone thinks otherwise?.... just for discussion.

 

cubs are cheap, agile, can be fast, can mount box... well they are very practical... why not? :cheeky:

 

so good.. you wrote email in also?

 

yea... a massive essay...

agree with you kmax. so you really need mech to triple check the bike. See that nothing major repair works needed before purchasing wohx..

 

1~3 year old bikes probably shall not need any major repair.. unless previous owner is dumba$$ and dont know how to take care of the bike.

you probably have sent your appeal to the wrong address... I am not too sure for ura, but tp and hdb will acknowledge your appeal instantly by automatic reply, and state that the deadline for the penalty would be non-effective...

 

don't bust the deadline... I don't want to see you in court...

 

as for my offense... I cannot reveal it... or my reputation would be in the drain... :weep:

practical and economical... yes.. TMAX 500.. silverwing and burgman are bigger engine and bigger size.. but TMAX is just nice.. can do 190kmh on NSHW.. and handling is...

I know the owner of that bike, it runs well and the owner did do the repairs he claimed to have performed so mechanically wise there shouldn't be anything wrong with it.

 

Is it a good deal? Well like kiamh says it's only a good deal if you treat it as a one off expense and only if you can full cash it. If you think of the resale value as an vital part of your decision making then it probably isn't the bike for you.

 

I don't know much about export so I can't help you there. The pipes can fetch maybe 1k? GPRs are the only legal pipes for Monsters as far as I know and second hand ones are exceedingly rare on the market.

 

I would advise you to analyse your finances thoroughly because with bikes that old you should set aside at least 2k of 'just in case' repair costs even though I don't really think the bike will need that much repairs. It's not an advisory against reliability of Ducatis, it's a yardstick anyone who wants to own a bike should measure their finances against to see if it really is within their means.

 

who care.. go for termi... i been searching for M900 termi on ebay then mod it to TDM.

lol.

wonderfull.. hahaha.

yea, was saying..

how you weigh your bike?

i mean, literally weigh it..

 

I didn't weigh it... its the manufacturer's claim... its meant for the dry weight though... but then again I have removed the airbox, purge system, changed some plastics into carbon fibre... so it should be more or less 85kg... :smile:

The ones from the forum are ridiculously overpriced...$1300 for pipes in that condition? Pssh. The ebay ones are for the 748/916 series, you would have to mod them quite abit to fit I think...
