any bikers here?

thinking of getting a scooter (never ride one before yet). any biker can give me their comment? the few model i am looking at is piaggio 500cc. or the silver wing 400-600cc. etc. looking at old bike for transporting at a value price.

hope get feedback for bros.

cheers.

and of cos, must be able to tie the golf back on it lah. haha...

Hi,

I am now riding a 500cc Aprilla scooter. I recommend Honda brand for higher reliability and easier maintenance.

I used to sling a Sunday bag on my back while riding, wouldn't recommend that. Cause quite dangerous.

Good luck

But my wife asked me to continue dreaming.

to sam, i saw a paggio liberty 200cc on sales with 3 yr coe +- at hand. 2k i think. took another scooter riding pal and they feedback overpriced.

well, now is thinking only. will be getting one asap as i am pretty sick of buses now.

mi5,

Agreed. $2k not worth. Try your luck at the local bike forum.

TDO,

Vmax is a monster. Seen an ex colleague performed wheelie using Vmax.. Woo Hoo...

sam. ya. if only he accept my highest offer, then i can ride a bike now. hehe... bro. what is your est price for this scooter? i means just for chat only about your view only.

tdo, i don't know about wheelie on vmax, but when i ride a vmax, it does hae the pull power. very exciting.

i never rode a vf740 magna before. but i heard it is a muscle bike too.

LC tong does have it fun, it is 2 stroke mah.

by the way, vmax have new design afew years ago, i think is your picture type. i recall very ex. hehe... but good muscle bike.

i tired riding a RD350 before, amidst without a 2A licence before, yes, the pick up is crazy fast almost lost control. hehehe.. awesome smelling 2T. : )

to sam. saw anothe paggio x9 500cc. do you think 2-3k the seller will agree? (what would you offer if you are buying this scooter). 10 yr old bike with renew coe. so still have 9 yr to go cos this yr ending liao. hehe.... i heard it is very heavy bike.

Bro Mi5,

U may try but I doubt owner will accept cause COE already over $1k. If u offer $3k, u might need to fork out extras to replace the transmission system. 10 year old bike quite problematic, Italian somemore. My Italian scooter only 6 years but repairs already costs me a bomb.

I once rode a Honda steed for 7 years plus. Other than the meter cable snapped twice, this bike never failed me. The rest just normal wear and tear like batt, tyres, normal servicing. My next bike will be a Honda, or at least Japanese.

Good luck!
Sam

Check out the new Yamaha Tmax. Nice




My friend use to have one, bought used for $6k. Tie his golf bag on the bike.

To TDO: The new Vmax cost abt $50K now, else i will get one. Used to own one in yr95, cost me just $17k then, and i sell it 4yr later for $16.5k



I am dreamiing too

Wow! RD350. Bring back so many memories. The road trips to Desaru with my kakis. This bike flies, man! I was cutting in and out of traffic (altho light). What a thrill.

Have stopped for many years. Now, thinking of the 3 wheelers Piaggio. Lau liao kiasi - damn bloody true. with wife some more - almost no chance.

Bro, Cam Am is a 3 wheeler with lots of muscle too. But bery expensive for a used bike.3 year plus and still asking for $35k. This bike will draw lots of attention too and make lots of nice exhaust noise.

@bro TDO - maybe I change my car for this when i get older. My last hurrah! 106bhp = my lousy Mazda3 power.

But can take golf bag or not?

Cam Am distributor in Singapore is my friend and customer. If need, i can refer, hopefully get a discount.

Soon to be biker though. Getting my 2B soon!

woow...
