Hi,
Currently I am looking for 2nd hand pajero & fortuner. Those who have try both do you mind share your input?
Reason I go for 2nd because it is much cheaper(save about rm70k)compare to brand new.
Which one more enjoy to drive? Which one more robust/reliable? Which one cheaper to maintenance,service & repair?
Both available in diesel?
Thanks

Speed Triple R, Monster 1200s, Bmw R1200, Z1000

Hi Bikers,

Planning to get my 1st Big bike..All these while been riding moped and for the last 2 year been riding clutch moped (125cc) to adapt/prepare myself into clutching motorcycle. Hv try ride friend 650cc naked bike once and the transformation from moped to 650cc bike feel ok. not much change except add weight whn idle but when moving, the weight are not that significant but feel very stable and safe indeed may be it is due to the weight.

MT 09 (RM47-RM50k) 890cc 1st Choice
have been eyeing MT 09 ever since it launch 2 years ago. love the style and very unlike any other bike.love the seating position which look relax. only concern about is the throttle response which magazine/online review claim are very snatchy. how snatchy is that? suitable for newbie like me? soft suspension is not a concern at all.

MT 07 (RM38-RM41K) 690cc 3rd choice
like the look of this too and feel more suitable for me (newbie) but it just look too small for me as my height is (5ft10) as the throttle response are very positive as what is review in magazine/online, just that it look miniture too me.

Versys 650 2015 (RM41-RM44k) 690cc 2nd choice
one of my favourite. however new model also added weight to ard 215kg if I'm not mistaken(the heavyiest) among all of the above. why i like versys,
1.fully adjustable front & rear suspension
2.better looking face, but I love the old looking face too
3.look big and better value, got lot of bike for the money.
may not that suitable to ride around town especially around traffic light. it is the best.

riding mode usage, 90% town riding, 10% long distance ride(seldom)

Any MT 09/MT 07/Versys owner willing to share your thouight?
Thank You.
