I think I'll take motorcycle lessons first. Eto warlock, '98 model Super Four Ver S. Looks like a good starting bike for newbies. Just as expensive as an Enduro S-works frame hehehe www.motorcyclephilippines.com/classifieds/showproduct.php?product=823&sort=1&cat=5&page=5Eikichi, as for tackling the mountain, I'd still prefer to do it using my mountain bike. Don't think I'd have fun powering a heavy and noisy motocross up the mountain and down the mountain. But for those out of town road trips, I think big bike is it. i think riding through the winding Halsema through the mountains, with the clouds slowly crawling up the side of the mountain, you and your bike, stopvover Data Lodge . . . hehehehe fantasy time.

Dude try calling Jun-Jun San Andres of JBS Motorcycles at tel # 291-9758. His shop is located at 41 T. Santiago St., Canumay, Valenzuela City. They sell good quality big bikes including Supa 4's. They also offer other motorcycles like scooters, MX, mini's, underbone, classics, etc...

Marcs being a mtb'er shuld consider dual bikes, yung on/off road One I liked na inexpensive was the Yamaha 600xt That thing could do a wheelie from a standstill on 4th gear. Lakas ng torque Plus taas pogi points coz it looks like an mx on steroids Someone was selling me one a few years ago for 95t kaso not tax paid I'll stick w/ the sissy bikes

Hi Im a newbie here, the reason I cant upgrade my early 1990's diamond back apex is because of my current passion in big bikes - I currently own a 2003 Honda CB400 Super4 Hyper Vtec... w/c I take Tagaytay and Sierra Madre regularly. Pls visit motorcycleasia.com Btw Im now more into road biking now - Giro Frame, Zipp wheel set.

used to have a big bike but gave it up because it's so easy to go fast on it, and the rush is a lot different as you go faster and faster. got hit by a bumblebee on the chest and had a bruise as big as my fist. anyway, no regrets specially now that i have a family. if ever i'll go back to motorized two-wheeled vehicles, i think i'd get one of those scooters instead...

400cc? they say a honda super four (super stock) is aroung 80k to 100k. (kinda rare though) sir what in particular are you looking for in a motorcycle? speed? (get higher displacement. 400cc is above average IMHO) a 250cc MC(short for motorcycle) will run almost as fast (but not as fast) as a 400cc but it can serve you well. try 150cc (the suzuki raider is not considered as a big bike, but rather an underbone) looks? big bike to go. try the cbr150, a 150cc bike that looks like a big bike and power that i think is enough for a non-stop 4hour ride. (or more!) want to save gas? try underbones. hehe hope this helps man BTW: im a member of www.motorcyclephilippines.com/forumslook for Raybrig see yah!

By the way very important, dont forget to invest on Safety Gears - Helmet, Padded jacket, Knee shin protector, Boots, gloves.
