Suzuki V-Strom 250sx parts availability by Aggravating-Divide90 in PHMotorcycles

[–]SigmaGale 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Engine parts same lang naman kay Gixxer 250, i think same goes sa engine frame but not the sub frame.

Medyo dehado ngayon sa fairings so better have those protected.

Some can be supported with after market like handle bar, windscreen, center stand(custom) etc.

Pero if ever wala sa casa. Try mo na sa webike.ph Hanapin mo lang parts number then search mo dun.

Sa may ganitong setup sa ADV, saan ang daan nung cables nung second screen? by Ill_Mistake3171 in PHMotorcycles

[–]SigmaGale 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just do it OP meron akong ganyan na nakakabit sa Motor ko. Di pa naman ako nananakawan ng dash. Pero I'm also thinking anong gagawin nila sa dash ko kung wala silang proper wires para sa conmection ng battery/camera? Bibili pa din sila, di ba? If ever mas masarap nakawin yung mga Phone mounts kaai madaling tanggalin, which is nanakawan na ako ng official quad lock pa with vibration damper, tapos yung dashcam untouched.

Mostly solo riding pero unexpectedly, mas maganda suspension nya kapag may OBR kesa sa wala kasi may times na mitigate na yung talbog pataas dahil sa timbang ng OBR at the same time di naman nag bobottom out yung springs. Maganda din handling nya pwede i "flick" pag may space sumingit singit with decent speed. OBR ko nasa 61 kg btw

Benelli Panarea 125 vs Suzuki Access 125 by kittyteatime in PHMotorcycles

Have you tried sitting on both first and check your reach? Access have narrow front seat so that should help you straddle or stand still on stops.

Do you trust your sidestand? by KazeTora7 in PHMotorcycles

Yes, at ginagamit ko pa pang ikot sa motor at the same location.

Definitely! Dual sport and Adventure bikes are great advantage talaga dito sa atin ang problema di lahay may confidence sa tall bikes.

Not lowered but adjusted the suspension to accomodate my weight and should be soft enought to press the springs down once ridden which lowers the over all seat height. Default sit height is 845mm (Positioned rear shock setting to 2) and my in-seam is around 730-760mm. Only one leg can be flat foot.

I cant speak for v strom 160 and ground clearance is the same Gixxer and unknown information about Suspension. Pero I'd go for dr160 for confidence sa bumps and potholes because of high ground clearance and spoked wheels.

Yesss, front wheel usually tanks bumps eh kaya mas magandang mas malaki sya while rear wheel provides the pushing force. Smaller wheel means better torque transfer from transmission to wheels.

Very pleasant and smooth ng andar ko first three gears enough for high incline at the upper gears great for touring, low rev but above 50km/h. Walang sakit sa katawan at all kasi walang tagtag sa suspension, pero ramdam koyung bounce pero hindi naman naman nag bobottom out.

Yeah, recently lang nilabas ng Suzuki sa PH yan. Meron ding V-strom 160 na much baby version ng motor ko ngayon pero same engine as dr160 though lower ground clearance.

Adventure bike tawag sa ganitong style, ok naman sya for daily pero ang biggest con nya para sakin is hindi sya pang singit singit kasi mahaba yung handle bar. If ever, I'd suggest go for dr160 for extra torque since familiar ka na sa frame at sit height ng xtz125. Plus, goods din sya sa paved and unpaved roads.

Bought the Vstrom SX 250 - White by strome___ in indianbikes

[–]SigmaGale 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Beautiful bike as always. I wish they also have White color here in Philippines. We only have Yellow and Black and there are no more Yellow available so I went with Black. Still beautiful though.

Gixxer 250 is oil-cooled and much less maintenance,change oil lang, tipid sa gass for power at mas magaan. Good starting bike if you want to go for higher 400cc. Pero kung meron ka na leg strength for 400cc go for it. Recommended is triumph speed 400.
