Servicing bike in JB(Ah gua lane)

[S750WP]

So how much did they say the cost of spraying was?

 

RM380 for single color to respray for my bike( fuel tank, front mud guard, side panels and tail board), RM20 to respray the wording Suzuki on the fuel tank.

 

Total less than Sing $200 to respray, but must leave the bike there for at least a week.

 

Was planning to spray this color.

I think I can respray my bike for $200 in Sg if I dismantle and send in the parts myself, also no need the hassle to travel to and from to JB

Yesterday wanted to pump at JB after hitting reserve at 230km. Fuel consumption is about 23km/l, ok for this class of bike. At 9pm reached woodlands custom and was stucked in motorbike queues for 45 mins. Didn't expect to jam at that hour, sigh...

 

Then headed to JB ah gua lane for first time and finally found the place. Actually it is very easy to get there lah. The exact main road name is Jalan Tun Abdul Razak, side lane name is Susur 4. Have been passing by the place for many years since taking 170 bus sometimes. Btw where are those 'ah gua'? I will post the exact route with pictures for new forumer soon.

 

So many bikeshops opened there didn't know which one to choose. As advised by forumers, went to Kok Seng (phone: +60167460809). Installed handgrips (RM15, sg bikeshop offered me at S$30++), chrome nudget bar type mirror (RM50), chrome rider foot rest (RM30), carbon-fibre-look airhorn (RM85, sg bikeshop sell for S$45), 2 x front wheel bearing (RM25 for 2, sg bikeshop quoted S$20+ each), 4 x fuse for spare (RM2 for each, sg bikeshop sell at S$2). While fixing the bike, I went for teh tarik at mamak stall besides and ate a ramli double special burger (RM5). Finally can feel the true night life that has long gone since living in singapore.

 

The original S4 oil filter which shd be suitable for impulse is sold at RM25 only. There is a cheaper and normal airhorn sold at RM50 but too bad slightly bigger to squeeze between the forks. Everything there is much cheaper if can find it. And no 'labour charge'.

 

Will go there again to service carburetor at RM100++.

Yea I think the price are all mark up and comparable to SG price now because of the crowds of SG bikers pouring in endlessly everyday.

 

Went to do some stickers over there a few days ago thinking it might be cheaper and was quoted RM40 for a retro RXZ design (which the boss says will customize to fit my bike) vs RM15 for the fanciful 'Kup' design for the local. Anyway I decided to become an ass and give it a shot, when I see how the sticker work turn the plain kup to look really nice. End up spending over RM100 and the result is f**king ugly, the customization which the boss mentioned is just cutting away the RXZ wording, and the sticker length were actually too shot for my bike (Impulse 400), anyway I have tore away the retro RXZ sticker.

 

I want to know where is the real AGL too, although I do see some AG (not pretty one) hanging out at the mamak food and drink store.
