Talking Buying> Sports bike you recommend for a small man! hehe

hi guys, im planning to buy a mc which is suitable for my height of 5'3. and about 125 lbs.

i want a sports bike like motorcycle, CBR150 and the kawasaki ninja r250 kung meron d2 would be in my option list. pero gusto ko sana yung totoong sports bike na.. a 400cc kung pede sa height ko. the cbr 400 rr is 760mm mas mbaba cya sa kawasaki fury na 765mm..

can you guys recommend na mababang seats like 776mm(cbr150) o mas mababa pa na sports bike.

and considering that im a beginner riding mc's, and i ngayon lang ako nagkaron ng interest sa mga sports bikes, pero marunong ako mag motor with gears.

budget would be like 150k below or pwede din pong mas mataas.. where to buy? recommendations pls.

Re: Buying> Sports bike you recommend for a small man! hehe

sa palagay ko di naman problema yung height sa pagmomotor...IMHO

yung kumpare ko, i think mga 5'4" lang siya, tsaka yung kumare ko (misis niya) nasa 5'2" ata yung height .., parehong nagmamaneho ng XR200 nila...alternate sila kung magmaneho, knowing na babae yung misis niya at medyo may kaliitan pero nakukuha niya pang maiangkas si kumpare (minsan lasing pa si kumpare nun)...

nasa skills lang yan...practice lang yung katapat niyan...kung makita mo lang kung pano sila sumampa sa motor ng naka sidestand lang...

Re: Buying> Sports bike you recommend for a small man! hehe

i'm 5'4" and honda super 4 and other 400cc bikes fits me nicely. but if you choose to ride a 400cc, i advise you to at least work out for 2X a week since these bike are a bit heavy when manuevering and parking. also it would be better to enroll at jake swann or honda riding academy for good measure.

madaling sumakay...masakit kumalat!!!

Re: Buying> Sports bike you recommend for a small man! hehe

the Honda CBR400RR NC29 should fit you very well, it has a lower seat height so i think you can handle it bro.

cbr's are a good choice for 400cc motor bikes. or kung medyo mas malaki ang budget mo, go for a RVF.


tama si papa MO, mababa lang ang seat height ng mga CBR400's.

oo kaya maganda rin etong cbr 400's kasi mababa talaga seat height nya so maka atleast 3/4 of my foot nasa floor.

is this good for beginner?

kasi nga first choice ko since beginner lang ako eh ang cbr150 or the ninja250
pero parang mas maangas ang 400cc bikes than of the lower cc's.

can you guys tell me places where to canvass these kinds of bike.

a very nice beginner bike but i couldn't justify paying 230K for a 150cc sport bike, only an idiot would buy it at that price.

good for beginners? i never drove a scooter or an underbone when i got my CBR400, yet i was able to manage, control and drive the bike na wala namang problem at nag-aangkas pa ako minsan.

i have read before in an article that kailangan daw ang dalawang paa mo ay sayad sa lupa at hindi nakatingkayad. for the NC29, pwede to dahil mababa lang ang seat height good for beginners talaga. Sana ma-correct ako ng ating mga kapwa forumer kung tama itong nabasa ko....

you can look for the classified ads regarding sa for sale na CBR400's.

try mo yung post ni papa sphinx, meron yata syang post na NC23.

...or kung malaki ang budget mo.....yung bike ko na lang....hehehe!

Re: Buying> Sports bike you recommend for a small man! hehe

sir gary magkano yang bike mo? hahahaha kanu yan ha??

thanks pete il check it..

@nasty, kaya naman pero ang sasabihin lang sa akin ng dad ko magkotse na lang ako. hehehe

the ninja 250r looks good

heres the thing, these i have in mind.

1.for a beginner like me, parang mas gusto ko muna magstart sa 150cc sport bike like mc.
2. but i dont like the sound of a 150cc mc
3. i like a 400cc bike because mas astig cya tingnan and the bulkier the better and okay ang sound.. zoom zoom!
4. nagdadadlwang isip ako, kaya ko kaya ihandle ang 400cc bike? becoz nga im a short guy.


ehehehe i want an actual test drive between the two.
150cc vs 400cc

Re: Buying> Sports bike you recommend for a small man! hehe

sa height mo na 5'3", sigurado ako kayo mo ang CBR400. adjustable ang seat height nito. meron akong nakitang pic dati sa internet, babaeng hapon na may taas na 5'3" to 5'4" ang bike nya ay NC29.

price ng bike ko? offer ka na reasonable....hehehe!
