After lots of research I have narrowed my motorcycle search down to two motorcycles. I am looking for a motorcycle for commuting to the gym, going to meetings and quick errands. Have started a discussion of Adventure Rider, which has been a great help. The reality is a 125cc or 150cc bike is only good for around DF. At first was looking at the Honda GL150 used by delivery people, but people tend to get very angry at delivery motorcycles. Also thought about a Honda Wave or Yamaha Crypton thinking will get more respect on a slower motorcycle, but would like a real motorcycle.
My Requirements:
- Easy to ride in traffic
- Less than $2500 ?
- Able to ride on the weekends
- Ride two up
- Easy to repair and maintain in Mexico City
- Buy a second bike for weekends?
- Mono shock rear suspension
- Front disk brake
The decision comes down to replacement parts and Yamaha and Honda are the most supported motorcycle in DF. Many of the Federales ride the FZ16. Then I found a video of the FZ16, which got me more excited:
I have visited the Honda dealership twice, and the Yamaha dealership twice. The next step is to visit the Yamaha dealership to see the service department before I purchase the FZ16.
