Had pushed out a Honda CB400 REVO within the week of me passing my practical test. Been riding it consistently for a fortnight already. I have to say, the condition is really good. I somehow have the luck to get good bike and price from Mr Lee at Looi's motor, and I am not the nego-seeker, I just pay what is stated usually. haha! The REVO is a ABS version, which are more expensive, all in all, the bike is 1 year 10 months from first registration, and I got it for SGD$12000.
A little on my bike, it is black, the mileage when I ride out from Looi's is 9413km. I got a pretty nice registration number, 6667. The previous owner had retained the number of '10'. I had fixed scottoiler, a voltmeter and a GIVI topbox so far. More projects in future, but all on practical uses. I will get them as time goes by: GIVI windshield, bridgeport air valve at my next tire change (the valve are angled 90° for ease of pumping air), gear indicator.
The bike is way smoother than the S4 in driving school. Nice whrrr when moving, and it's silent! I'm not a noisy exhaust, "here I am announcing my arrival" type of guy. I like to zip around without annoying people.
Still learning more about my new bike as time goes, need to be comfortable to the extent that it's an extention of me. I have lots of time to do so, I simply love this machine and likely to keep it for a long time.

Incoming! Super four REVO!
Wheee! Passed my 2A on my second attempt on the 3rd. First attempt failed due to a massive accumulation of 28 points. Ordered a REVO from Looi's Motor 5 days before TP... and I'm getting it this Saturday, when all paperworks completed.
If you asked me, what about my small bike, well, I post a sales thread in SBF and got a response on the 2nd day, and I sold it on the 3rd. Now, with no car and 2B bike in my possession, I'm all out to ride a decent proper bike.
Will post pictures of it in my facebook, wu_shunwen@hotmail.com is the address to add me, and also my MSN.
I would be planning a trip up to Malacca soon, just to get a feel of foreign riding, ops1tour will preceed when I'm really comfortable. It's just a matter of when, and not if.
