[mufc69]

better to ask for quote via their thread before going down... look for ah bee

Team HKL Racing (Hock Kim Leong Trading Co.)

Blk 1008 #01-24, Bukit Merah Lane 3, Singapore 159721, Tel: (65) 6275 6656

 

sounds like we stay very near to each other leh... should have joined us for the gathering at cck park some time back

i also went there before but got put off by the bad attitude, especially that cha bor. there's a small motorshop (a friendly young man) down the same stretch; limited stocks (need to order) and may not be able to do big jobs. but no problem for simple jobs like changing eo & filter. use special eo? bring your own eo and pay him service fee lor

 

check Ah boy shop the bridgestone tyres cost 210 for both tyres.

any comment about their stuff they sell?

bought the battery for sw400 for $140,made in japan battery..

got one battery selling $75,dare not buyo_O

Hi guys,

 

Would you guys give me a reasonable market price for my SW (JDM version). It was registered in Feb 2007, mileage about 16K+. Only accesssory would be a 42L Givi top box.

 

Thanks

yea that is my idea... but if the bike shop is giving a reasonable price i'll probably just push it in. Save the hassle.

no way, bike shop will push the bike price low for this bad market,some will say your bike no value...

 

be patience..can sell yourself..just wait for buyer..

 

i took 6 months to sell my x500 paggio bike for 1k only..

think his prices are among the lowest around but strongly suggest you check the birth month of the tires... in case kenna old stocks for myself, i may choose to pay a little more for better workmanship

 

the $75 batt could be the same as my spare batt Yuasa YT12A-BS. imo, if its to replace your primary batt, it could be better to get the stock one at $170

ok noted.. thank for the advice! how about getting oil fiter,air filter.. cost?

which engine oil u recommend?

[scoobydoo]

ha ha... eo is very much a matter of personal preference n there're lots to choose from; i select according to

(a) full not semi syn,

(b) budget around $20 /L,

© reasonably branded, not those i dunno type,

(d) motortiam service... spend $$ must also feel shiok spending mah

 

for SW, i was using maxima extra 15w50 (too heavy for my liking) and now using liqui moly 10w50 (lighter, so far so good). the other bros are using other eo of their choice.

 

if tight on budget, can Scarab's suggestion... why not use eo for cars like Mobil1 since our bike runs on dry clutch? all that talk about clutch slippage becomes irrelevant

 

best person to ask on DIY is HelmetBOX! & SW9000

[SW9000]

ok noted.. thank for the advice! how about getting oil fiter,air filter.. cost?

No need get 15w50 oil. Too heavy and your bike will feel suffocating.

 

Any 10w40 oil will do.

I've used Motul 7100 and Maxima Extra 10w40 and both have similar performances (including FC).

As for Motul 300v.... it's too ex for my liking.

Synthetic oil can easily last for 10k before change. So no need waste money change too frequently. You can change oil filter together or wait for next oil change. ** 2 oil changes = 1 filter change.

Likewise for spark plugs. Get iridium IUH24 and it can tahan a good 20k.

 

Always remember... the bike is like your baby (gf...). Treat it nice and gentle and it'll repay you with a smooth ride.

[SW9000]

Bros, where can get Arai fullface at reasonable good price?

[SW9000]
