Baal Supersonic August 26, 2014 Share August 26, 2014 Scoot is better for me now cos I only ride around the neighborhood ... But my hands are very itchy for an Enduro like a GS ... My Heart is saying YES!!! ... But my Mind is saying NO!!! ... Think I can put groceries & food in the Side & Top Boxes ... Solution = Get a GS650, put the hepco double side panniers & top box. can carry 1 week of grocerys..:) SM has is very ideal for Sg roads. Immediate power & torque. Only thing for me is seat a tad narrow... Good for shorter distances I guess. This narrow seat thingy is also my may gripe regarding the Yammy's MT09.

Thats the bike I rode !!!. Awesome. 1st gear drag to 11500, speedo = 75kmh. Shiok !!!. called the K model. When I rode it in 1999.....it was aka Lao Gui Bu lol Got the sticker Slingshot. Those were the days....... Damn Japs, why they stop these machines. At the very least, bring them back in the form of Street fighters. Now only left modern tech/semi retro styled S4 & GSR400 (PI only). But as seen in the Yamaha pricing......these 400cc IL4 pricing is really not quite competitive. Could be due to the Jap licensing system. Whereby if above 18 ( or maybe 21,...but dont think so).....a licensee is allowed to medium size bike defined as 400cc. As for 16yo, limited to 125cc. But when they reach 18 then its 400cc. iinw. Stop it! ... Here I'm trying to resist ....There you are tempting me ... By the way GS800 is nicer leh ... Actually, in view of putting all those panniers.....ur suggestion is true. ok ok, I stop.

Sorry to hear about that bro. But did hear that Suzy started to get its act together (generally speaking) for the better from 2001. Gixxer 1 onwards. Will u give suzy another chance ? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
