tingtongfarang Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 I warned her look after it and wear a helmet always, seen her the other day riding flat out overtaking everything with a dee on the back and of course no helmets, also noticed the headlamp glass is smashed I bought a 2nd-hand bike for the GF's family to use. They agreed to wear helmets and not drink and drive, or else. Drunk-driving, sans helmets, with children aboard, led to me to taking it back 2 weeks later. Walking is good exercise. Just thinking, the parabon is due next month and i doubt it would go through the inspection with a smashed headlamp glass, if the glass and tax-insurance does,nt get done i,m taking it back!

dave_boo Posted February 18, 2015 Share Posted February 18, 2015 Have to confess that in fact I don't know that much about small bikes. Lol. But yr correct. A rotary clutch? Interestingly they have put in on their lowest spec model it seems. Ever buy a car in Thailand? Try to get ABS/traction control/airbags/leather seats/etc. with a manual transmission. Nicky: rotary clutch; never heard of that before. d_b: Yes. My Thai made Honda car has manual tranny & airbags. And what other premium features? Not trying to be ornery, but one bullet point does not invalidate what I was saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papa al Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 (edited) I missed the bullet point. "Ever buy a car in Thailand? Try to get ABS/traction control/airbags/leather seats/etc. with a manual transmission." Unclear to me what you are trying to 'say' regarding Wave/Spark.

NoshowJones Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Had a Honda Wave 125 for seven years, and never a problem, had a Yamaha Fino for two years, fuel consumption terrible. and value dropped drammatically. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewrooney Posted February 19, 2015 Share Posted February 19, 2015 Had a Honda Wave 125 for seven years, and never a problem, had a Yamaha Fino for two years, fuel consumption terrible. and value dropped drammatically. Finos are garbage for sure, but I don't know if one should judge other Yamaha bikes by that standard. A friend of mine had a Mio which was a pretty good scooter. I also agree the Wave 125 is a great bike though. I own one and love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papa al Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 (edited) In my opinion the purpose of a Fino is to haul a small female rear end around town which it does admirably. They depreciate less than a Scoopy, unless you are silly enough to buy one with all the goofy lights. Edited February 20, 2015 by papa al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
01322521959 Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 I have a Yamaha Spark 110cc 2012 and its been a very good bike but having OCD I don't take it out in the rain and instead use my Honda Tena which cleans up more easily. Also got a CBR 300 that doesn't see rain either. But before you say it, I also don't know what that's got to do with the price of fish. OCD going mad in this rainy season, by the way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
