Dear all,
Greetings. I'm moving to Vietnam next week and will be there for a year or so. Looking at buying a cheap bike (USD 200+) just to get me to work, a 4.5km ride each way.
I'd like to ask, why are Yamaha Nouvos so cheap? Does it have anything to do with quality? Also would appreciate if anyone can recommend a good shop around D7 that sells and services 2nd hand motorbikes. I've rode a Wave 125 in Singapore between the ages of 18 and 21 and it served me well. How does the Nouvo fair against the Wave? Is the fuel consumption good? Is it a low maintenance bike?
Out of curiosity, how much does simple maintenance cost? i.e change of engine oil, changing spark plugs, changing air filter, tightening/loosening the chain, and the likes. I can do these on my own but if it is reasonable I'd just let the bike shop do it.
Also, to purchase a bike, what documents do I need other than my motorbike license?
Cheers guys!!
