O.. thanks.. but i heard from a shop tat a valve of pgm are quite expansive too, $1000+++ .. tat owner juz broug it less than 3 month than spoil le. lol.. he also quite suey ..

[speedkills]

i think the parts wise concern is not whether the parts very ex anot...its that its hard to find. personally believe that PGM is a good bike...fast and powerful.

[fibre]

hearsay is normally exaggerated...especially if from shop

 

only those who own the bike b4 will have a better idea of the prices

[MC28]

For example, 1 of my pgm valve was stuck before..Only have to change the valve stem assembly which cost $16 buden the labour is gonna cost and so i send my whole bike for top service..

if you so worry this and that about this bike.....then scrap the idea of getting it.....i don have pgm...if not,i will sure let you try out the bike,,then you will understand what does 2STROKE means.....what is maintenance or comsumption if you love it and using it for satisfaction??? :smile:

[ravenSP]

well, any bike can be a problematic bike. depends on luck and if the previous owner takes care of it or not. but yeah a 250 most prolly will cost you more money, but i suppose you'll get more fun out of it if you like a stroker ^^

 

 

just get what you like man, i still regret not getting a pgm last time. hope you'll find a good one

 

 

oh, and of course, if you have money to do up the bike nicely, it CAN be problem free for some time.. all bikes same ma.. never take care.. prob come

Let me quote you a few prices...

 

2T pump which cost $120 will have to be change once every 3-4 years.

CDI if spoilt will set you back at around $950

Speedo itself would cost you around $400

If you so damn suay kena piston jam, one side of the engine will cost you around $1.2k..Do note that pgm is a 90degree v-twin engine..Which means that it has 2 piston and 2 blk..

no wonder its pick up so fast...

wa... the breakdown damn chor man..

 

But RS250 parts more ex rite?

it goes without sayin lo.. cos italian bike ma.. compare to japan manufactured bike

[honam24]

anywae it depends on the age or the bikes cum the previous owner also..

 

If u get FN plate.. confirm ten yrs bike.... wear and tear is for sure. count urself unlucky if u get those problematic wan.

if u have the 250cc bike, dun tell me u wont wack ur bike meh.. impossible lo.......

previously ride my friend's aprilia 250cc cos still waiting for my bike to be transfer... i also wack.. not because its my friend's bike.. partly also better performance.. in term of pick up also faster.....

 

and if the previous is those so called 'Racer' then say to u first lo...

 

Some time ppl concept also change, anywae it up to u to decide. 2T bike is fast in pick. Non 2t bike got top end.. no need to worry about ur 2T i. NO OFFENCE juz my preference........

Rs 250 is a good bike but heard from my friend tat it cant reach it real top speed cos rite now in the market if u get Rs 250, mostly are old ones... unless u get 1st hand

 

Partly because it piston is racing piston. heard form my friend tat every six month need to change, if not it would reach its best performance , tat y he give up is bike...

Pgm indeed a veri nice and powerful bike.

 

I like the dry clutch sound

[Sesshou]

that's the ex part... clutch. B'cos is a dry clutch so wear and tear is super fast ( if you are those who like to lunch fast or track user) . most of the bike on the road have is very load tin, tin.... sound , if you clutch is in good condition is not loud at all.

[Guest Nick_li]
