-
If I'm not wrong, they only have the 200cc bike in singapore, not the 125 one..
sorry can't help much.
X9 can help.. good fren riding..
X8 too new liao. this afternoon just saw one.. FZ plate. -
there's a X8 at my estate's carpark.
beautiful bike... but i think x9 is more comfortable!!!
anyway I'm thinking of getting a X9 in future... it is ssooooooo comfortable! Of course I will have my hayabusa too la for long distance touring
-
i like X9 too....
fav is silverwing actually........
but X9 too bulky........i think X8 would be more manageable for lady........ -
I saw a new vespa in the bike shop today. LX125.. i think..
Red colour w White leather-like seats!! quite cute leh.. and small enough for girls to handle too.. the grey colour one looks too ah pek liao.. -

i know all i need to know about vespa liao
but can't seem to find ppl (ger or guy) riding x8......can't get comments........ -
eh, i ride to work, not ride to market............Originally posted by kopiosatu:buy honda wave la... got a basket, can ride like m'sians... -
you could do what the m'sians do, I was travelling to Melaka with my colleagues and there was this honda cub (honda wave) that had a exhaust the same size as the one on my bike.Originally posted by FireIce:eh, i ride to work, not ride to market............
Ok anyway, my mother is looking for a bike too. Gilera is too high for her, so she's looking at vespa.
X9 and X8's height is almost the same, fuel economy is a gurantee compared to a CAR, ahahhahaha!
You should just do what my mother likes to do, when she sees a bike she likes at any carpark, she just sits on it to try it out. -
i attempted to climb on ST11 beforeOriginally posted by kopiosatu:You should just do what my mother likes to do, when she sees a bike she likes at any carpark, she just sits on it to try it out.

can ride honda wave to johor oso mah.Originally posted by FireIce:eh, i ride to work, not ride to market............
if u want fuel economical, ride phantom.. hehe.. i riding.
but x8 really quite chio ah.. if park at carpark, surely will catch my attention. The other way is to leave a note on the bike if u see one lah. Dun think ppl will refuse to help a fellow biker. Scully think u trying to pick him up. -
I love the goldwing, its so comfortable!!!Originally posted by FireIce:i attempted to climb on ST11 before

Ehhh so far I only like big heavy bikes... I personally find R1 too small. So Hayabusa will do for me.
Anyway, you could consider the Gilera. -

got gold colour X8 meh??
i agree with kopiosatu tho.. X8 and X9, the built look similar.. once you ride off, u wun really feel the weight.. I felt that the bike (X9) was quite light to begin with.
Unless u scared that you will look weird when you're on the bike cos it's too long.. -
aiyah, i jus checked........oni X8-200........
ok, nehmind, no biggy abt the capacity.......
where have all the x8 riders gone? -
x8 is quite new... you should ask the x9 ridersOriginally posted by FireIce:aiyah, i jus checked........oni X8-200........

X9 i ride before
it's the 1st bike i rode (yah, oni know how to ride auto.....)
relli like the feel of it, but found it a bit too heavy.......
X8 is supposedly smaller in frame? not bery sure leh......
from pix it looks smaller lah......
tts why need to find out more.....
X8 vs Vespa.......which one u think better? -
vespa is super super super light. i wouldn't recommend you travelling down the expressway with that, its more of a suburb/town kinda bike.Originally posted by FireIce:X9 i ride before

given a logical choice i would recommend the x8 to the vespa.
x8 - more storage space, more comfortable, steadier compared to a vespa
getting a vespa is almost equivalant to drivers getting a beetle. -
i've compared the 2 bikes at the carpark.
x8 is shorter in length, height almost the same. -
hey! how u know i like beetle?Originally posted by kopiosatu:vespa is super super super light. i wouldn't recommend you travelling down the expressway with that, its more of a suburb/town kinda bike.

only the vintage beetle though.......
my requirements will be cheap and good......
bery important......mus be chio-looking (so can match the rider mah.....)
another qn will be........X8 cost how much ah? -
hahahah yeah getting a vespa is like getting a vintage beetle, its got the vintage yet unique stylish look. you'd look good if you're gonna ride the vespa down the streets of italy, hahahah!Originally posted by FireIce:hey! how u know i like beetle?

x8 ah, well... the last time i checked for a first hand x9, its around $8k. That's a long time ago star wars price.
My friend knows the guy who imports piaggio, you want the number to call and ask? -
think if u do a statistic check on women.. 90% will like beetle.. and 99% will like Nissan March!!Originally posted by FireIce:hey! how u know i like beetle?
