Hello! Got my motorcycle last May 2026 - it's a Motorstar Cafe 400. And I am currently slowly posting up again in social media (lots of backlog) and would like to share my experiences on it and about motorcycles too.

Since it's expressway-legal, having an RFID is definitely a must. It’s super convenient to have one so we don't have to line up in the cash lanes anymore.

​We have two types of RFID here: Easytrip and Autosweep.

​These days, you don't actually need to have both installed since we now have the One RFID system. Because of this, I decided to get an Easytrip RFID since their station is closer to my area and their mobile app—MPT DriveHub—is much better.

​Tip: I suggest booking an appointment at your chosen station ahead of time to make the process much faster.

​I chose the Shell Balagtas station since I wanted to combine the trip with my break-in ride. I booked the 6:00 AM to 7:00 AM slot. I brought my bike's OR/CR and one valid ID, and arrived at Shell Balagtas by 5:45 AM.

​Their booth is located in the first building right after the fuel pumps. I suggest parking near it so you’re closer to the installation area.

​I was first in line when I arrived, and they started serving by 6:10 AM. Since I already had an appointment, I just presented my appointment details along with the QR code. They asked for my OR/CR, verified the document, assigned an RFID account and sticker, and then proceeded to the initial top-up. The RFID installation itself is completely free.

​After topping up, we proceeded to the installation. While heading over, I asked if it could be placed on the windshield or visor. They said yes, explaining that they only avoid mounting it on metal parts. So, I had it installed on my windshield. They just verified if the license plate matched, and that was it! The whole process took less than 10 minutes, right between 6:10 AM and 6:20 AM.

​Ride safe, always! 🤙🏻✌🏻
