Yamaha Mio Soul: Is it worth it?

[yapoy86]

I'm very saddened to hear your dilemma. However, we all know that before going out of your garage, you must be able to know the rudiments of defensive driving. What do I mean by this? You should learn to anticipate the presence of uneducated drivers who ply along our busy streets within the metropolis. That's the reason why the LTO mandates that all drivers must have working horns, responsive brakes and visible side mirrors and rear view mirrors.

I’ve been driving a car for years and I have never experienced your aforestated account. What I find disturbing are public utility vehicle drivers who bully other road users every second of the day.

Moreover, we, motorcycle riders, pay our registration dues to the Land Transportation Office every year just like any other road user in the Philippines. These include the road user's tax and other taxes which are imposed upon the one who registers his vehicle.

In behalf of all motorcycle riders out there, allow me to state that we are, as a matter of right and privilege, entitled to use our roads responsibly, save, of course, for restricted roads.

I fervently hope that you'll not be offended by my post. It is just an expression of my viewpoint which is also a matter of right and privilege. Good Day and God bless you!

OT: i have no problems with motorcycles and riders as long as they respect other motorist like the cagers.. moreover how can you do "defensive driving" if the traffic is STOP and yet those pesky riders will still find their way to make it in the front!! and worst while finding their way "eh masabitan ka sa fender or side mirror" tapos titingnan ka lang at lalayo na.. di ba nakakainis yun??

also if may i ask "meron bang brakes" yung mga motor?? if yes, then why is it so hard for other riders to step on the brakes and make a full stop.. there are case when i cross an intersection some riders will still try to go past you eventhough you are already in the midst of crossing the intersection..

nakakatawa pa nga minsan sa laki ng kalsada at liit ng mga motor, minsan may mga nagkakabanggan pa na motorcycle to motorcycle as in HEAD ON collision pa

I like the looks ng mio soul. ok yun nasa pic na mio soul, double disc brakes na sa unahan? totoo ba yan? im not sure pero sabi nila mas malaki daw ang compartment ng yamaha nuovo. twist and go din yun parang mio but mas mahaba at malaki compared sa mio. kung fuel economy yamaha x-1 daw ang pinaka matipid pero yun nga lang wala halos UBox ang x-1

ah ic! akala ko kasi double front disk na ang mio soul ngayon. medyo iba porma kasi akala ko bagong labas. medyo hindi ko type ang scooter type bikes kaya kung ako siguro papipiliin ng TS eh i'll get either the yamaha x-1 (for fuel efficiency) or suzuki raider (for handling and acceleration) maganda sana yun sniper kaya lang hindi disk brake yun likod and parang bitin yun gears for a 135 cc. 4 gears lang yata yun AC version, im not sure kung 5 yun HC

by the way, thank you very much for all of your inputs. however, instead of getting a mio, my father and i have decided to purchase the new honda xrm rs because we are not used to full automatic motorcycles. i'll post the pics soon.
