Â oo nga pala.. 10-15 kms per ride patag na daan or up and down a mountain? Quote Link to comment
czecho123 Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 thanks epfdee and leviticus. yung 10-15 kms sa city lang yon. kung sa mountain ba may malaki ring difference. type ko as entry level yung yamaha mio nga ata yung automatic. got to see some jackets and helmets sa motoworld trinoma. maporma pag suot. di naman siguro overkill kung mga yamaha mio ang drive ko. he he he Quote Link to comment

epFDee Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 yep yamaha mio is a good choice... ...a buddy of mine got the mio fino a coupla days ago... classic!! ganda Quote Link to comment
bigpapa_pimp Posted July 17, 2008 Share Posted July 17, 2008 i started from a 400cc bike. I seldom use it for manila rides but i guess with the prices of gasoline rising fast i sometimes opted to use my bike. Now i have a 1000cc bike and a 400cc motard bike for city driving. If you really love bikes sometimes you prefer using them than your car. I wear the right gear if we have out of town rides but if i'm just driving here in manila i just use a jacket and a helmet for safety. Have 2 helmets a motogp replica kbc and an agv mat black for city driving. better safe than sorry that's what i always tell the other bikers. :thumbsupsmiley: Quote Link to comment

Try the manufacturers that our other fellow riders here have mentioned.  Riding is a continuing process of gaining experience and maintaining safety. I have two Harleys and i ride often, in the city and out of town. I have come to prefer bikes to cars. There is a saying that that there are two kinds of riders who have never crashed or spilled: the first never left home and the second is a liar. We consciously or unconsciously think accidents can never happen to us. But accidents can and do happen in the blink of an eye, and they can happen to anyone. As riders, we try not to do stupid things, and to gain know-how and experience to increase our safety margin, and it never stops.  Have fun, keep the rubber down, and ride safe. Quote Link to comment

redshirt Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 sayang nabenta ko na Ver S ko.... dun sa beginner I suggest mag scooter ka muna or underbone kasi magastos pag nalaglag mo ang mga bike.... and to those na balak mag bike isipin muna natin yung gastos kasi maraming bumibili ng bike and na stock lang pag nsasira kasi anamamahalan sa pagawa. usually ito ang gastos: tune up 2.3k-5kchange oil 300-2500 (sa mga hindi marunong)Oil filter 500-2000chain guard 200-8004t oil 235-300+ (per ltr)medyo mahirap pa hanapan ng parts compared sa ibang kalseng motor at mas mahal dihamak ang parts. ex. yung lens ng signal lights nawala... p950 na kaagad yun. lens lang. tapos pag may nacirang kung ano ano extra gastos nanaman. mahirap din lalo na pag marami kang dala, masakit sa left na braso lalo na pag traffic. I loved my S4 don't get me wrong. maporma sya. YES! pero hindi cya ganun ka practical. Mahal pa ang gas nyan kasi hindi pwede yung basta basta lang. Will I get another CB400 if funds allow. Definately But now, concintrate muna ako sa vespa ko. Medyo nagsisis nga ako kasi swerte yung nakabili ng s4 ko. wlang sira SUPER kinis, alangang alanga ko. every week nihuhugasan ko sya.... mura lang nya nabili..... Quote Link to comment

JHP Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 Just saw the aftermath tonight of a collision between two bikes at the intersection of V.A. Rufino (formerly Herrera) and Salcedo Sts. in Legaspi Village in Makati. According to one of the security people onsite, "Nagkahiyaan yata kung sino ang magme-menor." Just another reminder for all of us riders to be super-defensive (hayaan mo na mauna siya) and to expect the unexpected (bulaga). In this accident V.A. Rufino had the right of way, but we can't telll how much of a factor this was because we don't know the actual dynamics of what happened. Usually, the right of way at an intersection belongs to the bigger or major street. If not (correct me if i'm wrong, fellow riders), the one on the right has the right of way. Too bad, that accident could have been avoided with prudent, common sense. If we have to do the avoiding, so be it. An accident just isn't worth it. Intersections are always tricky, so it's better to be careful than sorry. Ride safe always. Quote Link to comment

Major road intersection or side street intersection: the driver/rider on the right [to your right] has the right of way. Here are some pictures I got from the internet of the Kawasaki 125 fury: Green siya.  Also, need some thoughts on this motorcycle:   Any input would be appreciated Quote Link to comment

My fervent wish is that all bikers enjoy their bikes and rides, and stay safe always. Maybe we could start a thread, or even do it here, on safety ideas and tips that are good to share with fellow MTC bikers. Ride safe.
