brotnik Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 hi guys inquire ko lang sa inyo san me makakakuha ng pocket bikes o minimoto na brand new... plano ko kasi paguwi ko dyan buy me... tsaka kung magkano price range of that kind of bikes thanks... Quote Link to comment
Suicide_boy Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 lucky? maybe. unless you consider the fact that i inherited the running expenses along with the bike. But what a beautiful bike it is! if only i can really use it... It even uses different spark plugs!  i've long suspected that that was you, but i never knew you were a 2-stroke guy so i couldn't be sure hehe  brotnik: you can buy pocket bikes almost anywhere now. pati tiyangge, meron na. expect to pay more or less around 35k for it.

stroker Posted January 15, 2006 Share Posted January 15, 2006 well, as they say, you can't have your cake and eat it too. hahaha...=) i remember there was one occasion where a rs125 entered. i just forget which class it was though...it was either the OGP or the 400 unlimited. well, i've always been a 2-stroker ever since i join mcp but i'm also now a v4 guy. now if i could only find a way to be able to race either one of 2 bikes.

Olympus Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Also consider what the bike will be used for. Using a sport bike as a daily commuter isn't worth it. However, for a wekend ride, worth it sha. Quote Link to comment

Suicide_boy Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 may questions lang ako..1) kelangan ba ng separate license to drive a bike? you need to add restriction code 1 (motorcycles) to your existing drivers license. shouldn't take too long or be much of a hassle. 2) ano tawag sa mga bikes like hondas n suzukis? yung pinang kakarera? i dunno what you mean. but the most popular races are for sportbikes (CBR, R1, GSXR, Ducati, etc.) and underbones (XRM, Wave, Raider, etc.). 3) ano ba good fuel consumption ng bike? kungyari sa kotse ay mga 8-12Km/L depends pa sa makina.. eh sa bike ba how much? pinaka magastos in my experience was around 15 km/L pero super laki and uhaw na yung bike na yun.  may nakita kasi akong ad.. motortrade ang name ng company or make ng bike?.. d ko sure.. pero cougar ang model ng bike.. 62K ito specs...cylinder: single cylinderengine type: 4 strokedisplacement: 150ccboke x stroke 61 x 49.5,,max horse power: 11.8kw/ 9500 r/minmax torque: 10.2Nm / 7800 / 8500 r/minignition system: CDI magnetostarting system: kick/ electricfuel tank capacity: 13L wat do u guys think? pang drive around lang naman e.. ndi pang karera.. THANX!<{POST_SNAPBACK}> i'm not familiar with that bike or brand so can't really comment. but as much as possible, stay away from china/korean bikes. Their prices are enticing but quality control is not as stringent. I'm sure there are a lot of reliable chinese/korean bikes on the road now, but it's hit and miss as far as i've heard. You may well be buying into a lot of maintenance expenses. Quote Link to comment

Olympus Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 Nice pics. I won't go for a suzuki 2 stroke bike tho. Mahirap pyesa, based on experience. mag honda o yamaha ka nalang.  Pero for commuting, nothing would beat an underbone since madali sumingit singit and matipid pa sa gas  you mean like this? http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y32/suicide_boy/This%20is%20Me/avatar.jpghttp://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a372/BRC_races/2005%20Sept%2011/DSC_0042.jpg i don't think you'll find anything thats 150 cc with the same looks, sound, 'porma' and reliability.

hoodsy2004 Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 There are some sports bike that is around 150 cc. You can check the honda cbr 150 rr and also the kawasaki krr 150 which i think is a two stroker. both bikes costs around 150 k brand new. underbones are nice for daily commuting. honda xrm's fuel consumption is about 50 km/liter, suzuki raider 35-38 km/liter, yamaha x-1 (as claimed by yamaha) consumes 86 km/liter. just my opinion, stay away from china bikes.... their quality is not comparable to japanese bikes Quote Link to comment
valentino rossi Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 if you're going to use it for commuting and not after speed, i suggest you go for an underbone or a scooter, but if you want some bling-bling, a fat tire attached on a bigbike is what you should get. 150k for a 150cc bike does not justify it for me. you can already find a decent super4 at a much lower price than that. you can even find a good 2nd hand 400cc sport bike on that budget.but sportsbikes are not recommended for daily commute. why? they are heavier and maintenance would be too high if you're on a budget. you're best bet would be a super4 if you're going to use it for daily commute.  here's a pic of my friend's super 4. :thumbsupsmiley:  http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c36/imtoofast/motorcycles/repsol01.jpg Quote Link to comment

stroker Posted January 18, 2006 Share Posted January 18, 2006 but sportsbikes are not recommended for daily commute. why? they are heavier and maintenance would be too high if you're on a budget.<{POST_SNAPBACK}> sportbikes aren't neccessarily heavier. in general, sportbikes are designed to be lighter than standards and cruisers. the logic behind it is loose weight, you go faster. maintenance wise...maybe you spend more on wax on a sportbike due to the bodywork. a bike is basically the same as the next bike. say for example, the super 4 basically has a cbr engine. woulld the engine maintenance cost of a cbr400 be different from a super 4? not likely.

Don Carleone Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 damn ang gaganda.. i want those! pero malaki ba diff ng fuel consumption ng sports bikes compared sa mga other bikes like XRMs? ano ba pinaka tipid sa gas ngayon? Quote Link to comment
Rapsa69s Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 mga tols, hingi lang ako konti advice..... last saturday, inalok ako ng pinsan ko na bumili ng 2nd hand suzuki shogun 125cc...  P3,500 down payment P2,260 monthly for 3 years pa.....  so mga P80T+ pa aabutin ito.... is it wise kung kukunin ko ito? wala kasi ko masyado alam pa sa motor eh... Tenks in advance....

stroker Posted January 19, 2006 Share Posted January 19, 2006 there is a difference in terms of fuel comsumption between large displacement bikes and underbones...and i don't mean a small difference. the only limiting factor for the underbone's range isn't fuel consumption but it's relatively small capacity fuel tank.
