We recently published the story of the launch of the Kawasaki Bajaj Dominar 400, a new motorcycle that Kawasaki claims is highway legal due to the 400cc rule: only motorcycles with a minimum displacement of 400cc can use toll highways. However, an eagle-eyed reader pointed out that despite its name, the Bajaj Dominar 400 was actually not 400cc. The engine of the Bajaj Dominar is actually 373.3 cc. The local motorcycle industry offers several highway-approved scooters that are perfect for busy city streets or for exploring less stretched provincial roads. Another popular highway option in the Philippines is the KTM Duke 390. The naked motorcycle has a 373.2cc engine mated to a six-speed gearbox that produces about 44 horsepower with about 37 Nm of torque. We contacted the Department of Transportation (DOTr) and the Toll Regulatory Board about this, and they quickly replied that only 400cc motorcycles are allowed on the highway. No surprise, and that means the Bajaj Dominar 400 isn`t technically free. However, given the answer after the book, we asked if bike manufacturers could give the 400 displacement if they were reasonably close to it. Round the number to 400 if they are slightly lower than the mark.

Whether motorcycles are actually legal or use a loophole to be legal is something that is left to lawyers. However, the local motorcycle landscape continued to grow, especially the segment that gave people more freedom on the road. Today, we`re going to look at some of the legal highway bikes you can buy here in the Philippines. Crosspost mo sa r/gulong, saka afaik, pag papasok ka ng expressway para mag pakabit ng rfid for toll, iccheck ata nila OR/CR ng motor para malaman yung cc. This low-cost, highway-homologated motorcycle has a 373 cc engine connected to a six-speed gearbox. This configuration allows the Dominar 400 to achieve a decent maximum power of 40 horsepower with a maximum torque of 35 Nm. For example, Yung Yamaha YZF R3 (321cc), Kawasaki Dominar 400 (373.3cc) and Kawasaki Ninja 400 (399cc) are all listed as 400cc motorcycles. Dahil lang ba mai 400 sa Name considered na silang highway-legal? How can law enforcement even determine if a motorcycle is highway/400cc legal or not, kabisado ba nila ng ng-motorcycle specifications mga? I hope someone can help you. Launched in the Philippines in 2018, the Kawasaki Ninja 400 is a monster motorcycle that offers a combination of performance, agility and controllability in a muscular body. Originating from the widespread ninja family, both the ABS version and the KRT variant of this road-legal sports bike are available at the P331.000 price.

With strong DNA circulating through its body, the Ninja 400 also inherits many great qualities from its big siblings, making it perfect for new and experienced pilots. In addition to its aggressive design, this new bike also features a lattice frame similar to that of the Ninja H2, an assist and sliding clutch, as well as incredible braking power with large 310mm semi-floating front disc brakes that are the same as those used on the Ninja ZX-14R – the largest in its class. For driver comfort, the Ninja 400 is equipped with a radiator fan and side panels. Other new features include LED lighting, digital instrumentation, anti-lock braking system (ABS) and immobilizer for safety.

This powertrain is then connected to a 6-speed manual transmission. The other motorcycles homologated by KTM are the RC 390 in the Supersport category. At the time of writing, maxi scoots allowed to enter and use Philippine highways include the SYM Maxsym 400i and Suzuki Burgman 400. This means that the TRB accepts LTO registration as the sole basis for the registration of motorcycles in the expressway. If the paper says it is 400cc, although it may not be, the motorcycle will be allowed.

For example, a manufacturer may declare a motorcycle as 400cc, so to speak, so to be able to say that it is subject to highway or toll charges. „What is stated in the LTO record will prevail. This is what is being monitored,“ was the response of Mr. Abraham Sales, Director General of the Toll Regulatory Board. Other notable features of this commuter motorcycle include the dual-spring single-shock suspension, dual-channel ABS, and split inverted LCD.

Currently, it is one of the cheapest ninja bikes in the world. The bike is aggressive in style and can be used by beginners and experienced cyclists.
