Hindi pa nga lang ako marunong ng manual transmission, so malamang scooter muna para automatic tranny. What's a good starter scoot ba for a reasonable price? I'm thinking below php50k sana. Would appreciate tips and suggested options 😎 No japanese scoot goes for below 50k. Usually 70k up. Chinese brands baka Meron. Quote Link to comment

I suggest that you try checking out their showrooms. Try their bikes Ktm in general has a hight seat height. The 390 duke even has a higher seat then the 790 Duke. Same with Vitpilen whixh is really just a re-skinned ktm390. My vote goes to Kawi Ninja/z400 which has a the lowest seat height than its main rivals Quote Link to comment
KapitanBoom2009 Posted April 29, 2022 Share Posted April 29, 2022 im 5'6"... duke 390 ok lang naman sakin ang seat height... i suggest you test ride para ma feel mo saan ka comfortable Quote Link to comment

Cf moto has better quality control than the motorstar.  Go for the Nmax - Benellis are just SYMs pretending to be Italian. If you’re fixed on the classic look at a bargain, consider getting a honda scoopy instead. Quote Link to comment

If not, a 125 cc scooter is the best option Edited May 4, 2022 by mrbokals spelling 1 Quote Link to comment
Panibugho Posted May 4, 2022 Share Posted May 4, 2022 All my life, di ko nakahiligan mag-motor. NIlampasan ko college and 30's ko ng hindi nahilig sa motor, and samen magbabarkada dito, ako lang walang motor, hahaha. I was fine with that though.. Until recently, siguro a month ago or less, I had this weird vibe. Parang gusto ko matuto mag-motor, kumuha ng license. Currently lurking in FB Marketplace looking for bikes like Yamaha R3/R15 or Honda CBR 150. Haven't pulled the trigger, just found it weird.

khantan Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 Go to different driving schools, try different kinds of bikes. Watch different youtube videos about motorcycle accidents, try to put yourself in their shoes (or sandals hehe), think about what you would to to prevent that kind of accident. Good Luck!

pjay Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 sa mga undecided kung anong motor ang kukunin, ask yourselves these questions first 1.) para saan? saan gagamitin? 2.) budget.  kung pang city/daily errands/short rides - definitely 125/150/155cc scooters. cheap to maintain and acquire, cheap insurance, light, easy to lug around, tipid sa gas, madali i-park, madami din pagpipilian - Honda Beat/Click/PCX/Airblade, Yamaha Mio/Aerox/Nmax, etc  400cc and above - naked bikes or scooters. pwede sa expressway, practical, relatively easy to use, comfortable, economical, mejo marami din pagpipilian like Kymco S400, Yamaha TMAX, KTM 390, Honda CB650/CB500, Kawasaki Z650, Versys Family, etc.  ** 600cc+ leisure bikes - sports bikes, bobbers, cafe racers, 900/1000cc bikes, adventure bikes, etc. Not really suggested as your first bike, has 1 or more disadvantage than you'd like, hassle sa traffic, mabigat, usually mataas seat height (especially sportbikes, some nakeds, adventure bikes), lakas sa gas, mahal insurance, most often than not mga "weekend bikes" mga to. in short, tiis pogi. hehe Examples -Yamaha R6/R1/XSR900/XSR700/MT09/MT10/Bolt, Kawasaki ZX6R/ZX10R/Versys 1000/Ninja 1000/Vulcan, BMW S1000RR/S1000R/S1000XR/F900/GS1250/GS750, Ducati V4/Multistrada/Panigale/Hypermotard, Aprilla Tuono/RSV4/RS660, Honda Fireblade/CBR1000/CB1000/ADV 750/Rebel. These are the usual bikes you see roaming every weekend sa NLEX/SLEX.   and lastly, kung mag decide kayo mag motor, please do yourselves a favor and get good protective gears - at least helmet and jacket, pero ideally head-to-toe sana.  Quote Link to comment

Here’s a tip for those that want to get into manual motorcycles. it’s much easier to operate a higher cc bike than a smaller one because it takes less effort to balance the clutch and throttle. The stop and go traffic is the most difficult part of riding so having less things to worry about will boost your confidence as a rider. Another caveat of learning from a low cc bike -150 and below- is that you won’t be able to appreciate the importance of throttle control since you’ll always be using high revs to make any power. The sweet spot for beginners would be the 400 - 650 segment but whatever you do, do not get a 600. Quote Link to comment

I told him to sell his bike then bili siya nung mga YAMAHA na AUTOMATIC na 400-500CC alam ko mayrun na ganun eh.. I have an NMAX v2 kasi kaya sarap na sarap ako dun gamitin, Quote Link to comment
