    bigger than 600cc, yes that would be overkill . except I do love those new Ducati scramblers though for their light weight and all the good quality bits but at a no-frills design , and good safety features to like the ABS and top shelf Brembo brakes. For an 800cc bike - their size is actually...

    Im still waiting for my 10 year old scorpio to retire , but still going strong as like new (modded better rar shockm and with 17 inch wheels and wider sticky bridgestone tires and rear disc) .., but if I was to upgrade , it would still be the Kawasaki KLX 250 Dtracker (supermoto type) but id...

    ..,and what levels may they be ? .., so apart from Jakarta toll roads, AFAIK there is no restriction on bikes using them, especially in Bali . As for the rest of my bike comment and your opinion they are wrong on 'so many levels' - to me that sounds like just your opinion , as I have mine...

    What didn't you bring here that you wish you had...?

    what a sad (for blokes) story .., I am aware of that .., mine are locked in many toolboxes , that are in a locked big builders trailer, that is locked inside dry garage .., and everything in the toolboxes has been drenched with WD40 to be on the safe side. The only thing though is I'm guessing...

More distant features they may know about though, could be a significantly...

    .., but It's not about the top speed, it is ALL about the torque .., With a 200 to 250cc bike (comparing it to a scooter) - this bigger bike gets you there safer because the suspension far is better than a scooter, - the brakes also are better, - the carrying capacity is better, - the...

    Hi Happy man , Ive been on a Kitap for 4.5 years now (and away from the forums also) ..., Are you saying WE (as foreigners on a Kitap) are now also required to apply for a KTP ..., I'm confused ? .., As I always thought the KTP only applied to Indonesian citizens ?
