Small Scooter

xiper — Tue, 23 Mar 2021 12:21:59 +0800

hey guys, i'm considering to get a small scooter (<150cc) for some pasar/restaurant trips nearby (<10km), having in mind those models from the popular brands like beAT, Vario, Ego Avantiz. I dont mind getting a used scooter for this purpose or a new one as i saw there is some discount on exercise duty for 150cc and below starting on April.

The scooter will be definitely low in usage, on second thought should i consider on getting models from like Sym, Modenas or other brands? I do not have any experience on those brands, mind of anyone that own a scooter from non major brands (Honda/Yamaha) can share their view in terms of maintenance and reliability?

My daily bike to office and longer distance is MT07 and its quite troublesome on squeezing into smaller parking lots with some double parking id**ts blocking here and there. A small scooter will definitely be handy.

Due to the increased traffic as well as limited parking space, I am considering if I should change my transport method from car to motorcycle for daily commute to work.

Anyone that made the switch before mind to share your experience?

If I am to get a bike for daily commute, I would be considering the Z650, MT-07 or CB650R.
I did not ride any of them before except a short ride on the MT-07. From survey these bikes seems to be good starter for newbie.

Recently when browsing on motorcycle e-hailing, this website came up https://nakride.com/

Seems to be having the concept of Airbnb but is for motorcycle where someone can post their bike up for rent and another person can rent the bike. Not sure how the insurance works, etc

Anyone tried to use this before can share your thoughts?

Question for Scooter

xiper — Wed, 10 Jul 2019 22:20:34 +0800

hi all, i'm looking to get my first bike, currently short listed Yamaha Ego Avantiz and Honda BeAT.

My usage will be very low, just to pasar and restaurant nearby (car is way too jam!), which one shall I go for and is the scooter much more problematic than the normal bike?

Appreciate advice if I shall go for a scooter or a normal bike (e.g. Honda Wave or Yamaha Lagenda)?

Improve Handling for FD2

xiper — Sat, 16 Jul 2011 14:42:02 +0800

Hi guys and gals, I am driving a 2009 Civic FD2 and I would like to improve the car handling especially on high speed cornering. May I know what do I need to mod to improve my car handling?

My car is stock condition with full mugen body kit. Using mic PS3 tyres on ori 17' rim (facelift).

So far I read on some articles and saw about changing suspension. Need some advise from sifu here. Is it good to change some of the type R parts to improve handling?

Thanks.
