Tol, I'm sorry but I'd have to disagree with your mechanic.

I'm usually not very argumentative specially in this forum but in this case, I'd make an exception.

The FZ16's engine is not similar to that of the YBR 125's at all.

The engine displacement, the cylinder, the carb, the transmission, etc., etc., are entirely different.

If I'd have to compare engines, the YBR 125's engine IS exactly the same as that of the Yamaha STX.

I've ridden both the YBR 125 and the FZ16 and from my experience with these bikes, comparatively speaking, the YBR 125 is not in the same league as that of the FZ16. Very far from it.

But then again, it is a matter of personal preference.

No offense meant, whatsoever.

based on experiece din.. tagal ko na din may 4 wheels, pero iba talaga pag na ka motor.. favorite quote ko nga " 4 wheels move the body, 2 wheels move the soul..

eto pa nabasa ko regarding sa pag momotor :

The act of riding is a form of meditation, because the concentration that's required to safely ride a motorcycle tends to focus the mind in a way that eliminates other mental distractions that might interfere with the mission.

This creates a single-mindedness that, in effect, displaces the continuous stream of thoughts that normally flow through our consciousness.

Thoughts about what to eat, who to meet, and worries about the common stresses of everyday life, such as pressures from work and home, disappear from our minds during the ride, because the concentration that's necessary to focus on the ride pushes those thoughts far into the background.

The result is that the mind becomes refreshed after a ride just like it would after a session of formal meditation or a relaxing vacation.

Just like some people get "hooked" on meditation, motorcyclists get hooked on riding because of the mental relief that it brings. I wouldn't be surprised if someone discovers that endorphins or something are released during the act of riding. I'm sure you've noticed that you can't "zone out" on a motorcycle like you can when driving a car.

you have a valid point.

if I have his money, I'd buy the d-max and the FZ but I wouldn't sell my sniper.

madaling sabhin yan, pero explain ko situation ko, oo pwed wg ko na ibenta ung snipee ko dahil makakabili parin ako ng Dmax at Fz pero my resaon ako, meron ako 8 saksakyan na kailngan iparehistro every year 1 is our family car, ung 2 for my personal use thats the Dmax and FZ, ung 4 is for business use that include the wave 125 and 3 trucks, so hindi na advisable sa akin na imaintain ung snipee ko since i already have the FZ, and last is nagddepriciate ung resale value ng sniper, and sorry to say that i'm not a kind of person na nag kakaroon ng sentimental value sa isang bagay specially maluluge ako hehehe at meron ako kakilalang katulad ko meron dyan sobrang yayaman na once n di na nila mapapakinabangan or di masaydong magagamit ung isang bagay dnidispose n nila

gaya ni sir wingman hehehe

kung may pamilya na ako at i have to choose... ill choose the dmax... mas safe sa family...

pero kasi may fz pa eh... though ive driven na an fz16 last week... cornering is unbelievably easy! maganda pag pratisan sa knee down.. tapos ung riding height and seating.. super comfortable... would i swap it for my sniper then?
(sa ngayon for sale ang isa ko pang bike just to buy my fz) but the point is dadagdagan ko lang KALARO si barbie ko (sniper) d ko pa rin sya papalitan...
1. may tropa akong sniper boys.. pg fz na ako.. bye..
2. d pede sa bigbikes, maliit sya... d pede sa underbone, syempre malaki sya...

finally, kung napagsabay bili ang dmax at fz... d siguro need pa ibenta ang sniper....

my advice.
Remove the sniper engine and put it in FZ.
with that, you will have the awesome and unique fz16. :D

Sir i think i will not gonna put the whole engine of t135 because it cannot cope to the weight of FZ, and if you compare the tchnical aspect of the two you'll see that the engine of the FZ has the higher Horse power, torque etc. etc and i'm not comapering it only by the book, also by experience coz i both driven the bike in stock form.

Sir maybe the only things that i will put to My FZ is some feature of sniper's engine, the radiator and the 4 valves and then as what you sed i will have the awesome and unique FZ.


sana po walang maglit sa reply ko, opinion lng po to na binase ko sa sarili kong karanasan salamat po :)
