There is no use in friendship with an ungrateful person.

Anger comes as a result of intolerance.

One who can maintain peace of mind is happy.

Happy is he who killed his own anger.

yupyup..if you could be so kind...maybe next time u go down juz help me ask if they can service ET8...at least won't make wasted trip...

 

thanks so much :smile:

Ok, I've check and they do service ET8. I was there just now and saw them service the transmission. For ET8, you can either tell them what you wanna do beforehand so they can get the parts or leave your bike there in the morning and get it back in the afternoon.

OLD NO GO, NEW NO COME.

I used their service afew times since I moved there, so far so good, in the pricing. They seems to do many over-haul as I am always seeing them doing it.

 

There's Andrew but I dunno if he's the boss but just watch it as he's kind of talkative. If you like the silent worker, look for the younger chap that's almost bald - he's pretty knowlegeable as well.

Thankew kenny for the replies.

 

went to testride 150 cc et8 in eurosunrise b4....2nd hand.....selling for 4000+ for a 3 yr old bike... i kinda like it...but erm....due to financial problems, din managed to clinch the deal.:cry: I'm kinda short..haa...1.57m, may nd to scrap some height off the seat i guesss...

 

piaggio centre sells any 2nd hand et8's?

 

 

 

Btw shinkai, i tink a new 150 cc et8 costs ard 6000+...

things to share on my ET8 xp:

My bike all my frens ride liao all say swee, they wan to buy, asked me to helped them look out for it. But to be honest actually ET8 not much, & ppl dun really wan to sell, reason: cant bear to part wif this cutie, 2ndly, sell low but motor tiam sell high, bo hua for us.. so its kinda word of mouth sales.. depend on luck.

 

look at phantom... 'fan lan' man!

 

I bought mine at 3k. 4 yrs only mileage 20k. I find it very worth the $ so I buy without hesitation. But my fren said u nvr know wat happened to this bike which is true lor, I mean, if u dun wish to take the risk, buy a 1st hand la! But to be honest, little chance ppl will buy et8 @ 1st hand.. unless we're staying in italy where everybody rides a scoot!

 

1 thing abt et8: when i ride on AYE 90kmph onwards, when i reached my workplace, i can smeel 'chao tah' smell, like engine overheat.

so et8 is STRICTLY meant for 70-90kmph ONLY!

 

BUT pick up really scary, and i mean it! traffic light chiat super4 & kips.. jus becos they relak, i know..... :cheeky:

 

As for the petrol, its 10% off island wide, so full tank is merely $7.50 MAX.

 

Any more xp??

Actually hor, I wanted to get runner 180 or 200 before i got this ET8 one.. cos i like the sporty look and i see it a potential 'mod-able' bike..

cos I've seen a malay riding this half modded with all the accessories.. i was like: WOW!

 

Psst..... wanna exchange bike to ride someday? :cheeky:
