Servicing bike in JB(Ah gua lane)

[YuaN_]

Hi guys...

anyone of u went JB to service their class 2A & above before?

care to share ur experince on class 2A & above bike??

like Engine? change of Engine oil? servicing the forks and katong? tuning?

 

For me, i went to ask about the forks, cos my RVF fork linking... in SG the cheapest i can get is SG 100 for both... and in JB is RM 168... dunno can trust or not, wanna know ppl with experience to share...

 

And for engine oil, there its cheap, but its it realiable to change there? hehee...

 

And for engine, i think better do it in SG, cos its the most important part of the bike......

 

And for tuning, i not sure about it

 

 

And there are more like chain and spockets.... etc.....

[ali_baba]

their engine oil what's their highest grade ??

do they sell maxima ??

hmmz.. feel like fixing up my suspension too ..

bro, trust me... their skill is there. I serviced all my previous bikes there, including 2a bikes like my g4 and cbr 400 as well as my cousin's s4. full service, engine oil change, forks, all done there. 2a bikes must look for ah hao - the boss. he is usually at his new shop - the second bike shop after you enter AGL.

Hou Heng de best! The boss there very responsible one. I serviced all my bikes there which includes SP 150, CBR 400 RR, K2 1000 cc.

 

Since SP time, my SP serviced or repair in S'pore can still pistol jam 3 times, then when i bring to Hou Heng, everything smooth, swee swee, somemore many times cheaper than S'pore. Only the 4th time, i itchy butt go whack the bike without enough 2T.

 

 

Then comes to CBR 400 RR time, the bike when i first bought got lots of problems. Eg, fuel pump, wiring, throttle not smooth, tunning is not correct. Then i leave my bike at Hou Heng for 2 weeks.. For much cheaper pricing than S'pore, my bike swee swee, very smooth and fast ( throttle dam sensitive ). But pity that i never bring tat bike to track.

 

Now my new era, suzuki K2 1000cc, the red original with yoshi ( lousy ) pipe bike. ( surprising got 2 other same colour K2 go hou heng also ). Till now, i let Ah Hou ( boss ) do every thing for my bikes. Engine oil, spark plugs, tunning ( surprisingly, he knows how to do my EFI model ) but of course no dyno tunning la. Then my wheel bearings. The boss can say much better than most mechicians in S'pore. He served ppl with his heart, ( main aim not to chop ppl but want ppl to come back his shop due to good pricing and good service ). Then now my butt itchy again, learning wheelie, then my front forks ( oil seals i think leaking ) and dunno why my main frame bearing is gone, so i will be leaving my bike with him for few days again. Pls dont scratch my bike if you all see it.

 

IMO, he may not be the best in the world but give him time and he can do a good job for you. Now even when coming to mod my bike or something spoil, i will also seek his opinion first before doing. for this shop.

 

 

* Pls dont flame me, i really experienced good worksmanship from this shop since yr 2003. Me not having any comission or any shares in the shop. Me is just a normal rider who wants cheap & good service. *

[siaopig]

Forgot to add on, can jio me go in with you all next time or mention my name to the boss. say you know Edward and he will chop you more!!! waste no time, join me!!! haha

 

but do take care when travelling in JB roads. I met with accident there not long ago, luckily i'm ok..

 

In finding places to service your bike...
