since u r comfortable wif ur bike although its juz an SP, DUN CHANGE dude! .. u mite regret after changing.

 

Y ppl change / upgrade?

1. Need for speed or power.

2. itchy backside, can't stay loyal to 1 bike for long.

3. see others change oso gian want to change.

4. interest wise. eg for trail, track, touring.

5. Tooo much money to spend.

 

well,my main purpose in changing is basically so i can finally follow my riding buddies up north on their roadtrip, as i dun trust my little sp to keep up with my fellow frens who goes touring.

 

i dun go touring mainly coz i ride a small bike,so have only been hearing all about their trips up north.

 

im not much of a tourer but the feeling of travelling miles and miles with my own bike exploring new places up north is something that i wanna do before i get old.

 

hence i thought of changing to a decent bike for touring like super 4 or maybe since i have class 2,

 

a 2nd hand fazer 600 which is my honest dream bike with side panniers is the machine i foresee

 

to get me through my touring dreams,

 

why 2nd hand? coz im not rich and i never really was into big bikes

 

call it silly but changing bike coz i wanna tour is my main reason though =/

actually, any bike can go touring, juz as long u do ur maintenance. But of coz, if u tour using a 2B bike, u can't ride fast, hence u will take longer.

also depends on ur touring kakis, if all r riding bike bikes, den u will b left alone lor, coz i dun tink they will wait for u.

 

if u really intend to tour esp to Thailand, in my opinion, the minimum u shld get is a 400cc bike, mayb Super4. Riding 120km/h on NSH is a normal pace, of coz at times u wud want to rev higher coz the long roads is calling u to ride faster!

 

u can consider FZ6 since u got class2. My Fazer has evidently served mi well, the furthest ever rode on a Fazer is at Maesai, Myanmar border.

and maintenance for 400cc & 600cc is almost the same ...

 

For FZ6S1, on average 2nd hand is ard 6-8k, depending on condition.

FZ6S2, 2nd hand 9K & above. Since FZ6 no longer in production, replaced by XJ6 aka Diversion600.

 

Juz my 2 cents, of coz buy frm bike shop abit higher lah.

its not silly but due to practicality.

 

I was happily riding a scoot, PiaggioX9 200cc for my daily transport until like ur case, been hearing soo much abt the fun of touring up North, decided to ride up to Thailand and upgraded instantly to an FJR1300!!! ....

[Yatz86]

don upgrade lor.... i've had my 2B for 3 years now.... i love its agility and mobility. And now with RON95 being able to be pumped in MY again.. i pump RM17 worth for 300km+ of mileage while other pump $27 sing for that same mileage...

 

so good..i got around same mileage as u and pump ron95 but total cost RM$27-RM$30

IMO, S4 is good enough for some decent touring, parts available anywhere, tires definity cheaper due to smaller tires compared wif FAZER, FC better due to its a 400cc, gd resale value.

 

Cons is the top speed is around 180 km/h only, depends on u wan speed or u wanna enjoy the ride

i pumped almost RM50 for RON97

 

2b bike specially 2 stroker vibration is not practical for touring, can tour but not as enjoyable as a 4 stroker.

The pump attendant dun let me pump cos he dun understand english and dun even know how to read English & Malayu.

 

Caused me to waste another RM15 for RON97

Mayb depends on ware u pump. I always pump during lunchtime at SHell Gelang Patah, no prob. But still i pump Ron97. With lunch + petrol + ciggy + toll still cheaper den I pump in SG. :D

Hi bro, full time working, full time bf, part time study.

 

basically no life once u start study. Weekends burnt. Annual Leave basically used for exam period. I only apply 2 days of AL for myself. And that is Hari Raya. However if got long weekends, i take the opportunity to MC so i can jalan jalan ...hehe

 

im a dip in IT, but heck didnt get into those companies I wanted, and IT kindda redundant in most companies i would say, long story short, i just dont see myself in IT 20-30 years down the road....

 

But for my degree, im taking supply chain & logistics..basically its a supplement to my career.....been in logistics line ever since i ORD? and find that logistics is alright for me...in my line, dip can only bring u into the industry with an ok ok payscale..if u wanna get the comfortable pay and role, u have to have few years experience with degree paper qualification....

 

At the end of the day. Study + Work = Madness

definately go crazy at one point or another:p...but still can survive:)

thats good,hmm basically u guys might freak out if i tell u my occupation im just leaning towards business degree,lots of my friends are saying that.

 

truth in told i wanted to take an IT degree since im quite good in it but someone who haves an IT degree told me that having a IT degree is nothing as technology phases out over time.

 

so im leaning towards business or sociology, mind sharing a bit how ur schedule is like bro yatz?

IT degree ha...not recommended. especially part time IT degree. In today's company's its best to equip ureself with diploma and lots of relevant certification ...dont waste money on IT part time degree...

 

and if ure job is incline towards business, why not take a degree in business related fields? it is better for u since u have a foundation in IT and just need that business degree to get a shot into a more management position in future...

 

My typical schedule ha...

Monday: Class

Tuesday: Gym

Wedneday: Revise

Thursday: Class

Friday: 2nd link blast

Saturday: Park toh

Sunday: Park toh + revise..

 

and the cycle goes on and on and on till school holiday...oh ya if have projects to complete....can kiss goodbye the weekend and stay at home do....
