As you can see, the successful of Malaysia bike brings more R&D, and keep improving from time to time. TO me, these Malaysian bikes are ready to compete with others world brand bike on its class. Many people said this Skyline is a duplicate from a combination Kawasaki Z800 and Ducati Paniegale, but now we know there is originality on this Skyline. People don't call it Kawasaki anymore. They know that this is Skyline.More people know about this brand.
To me,this is one of the best bike for starter. You can use it for both weekend ride or daily use. The maintenance are goo, fuel consumption not good as Yamaha Fz 150 / M-Slaz 150. But the price is good. You can get this bike with below Rm 10,000.00 budget. On mudah.my, the price featured are RM 9,688.00. Its introduced on March 2016, but took place at market on April 2016. Good luck, guys.
