KPO abit (not mitosis but still answering your question.. hahaha)..

 

I heard from one guy that it's $320, but from a bikeshop that it's $400-$500.. in the end, I still went for a semi good condition 2nd hand rear suspension.. for $150. But if it really costs $320, then it's worth it to get a new one. Just my thoughts.

well gsx is like that one, u prepare urself for alot of problems, especially wear and tear stuff...

since it's cheap to get a g4, for a > 10 yrs bike, i would advise u to prepare ard 500 to 1k for repairs and maintenance becoz u nv know what problems will arise when u ride it out subsequently.

If u're lucky, u can even spare some to "Zhen" the bike if it had been carefully taken care off by previous owner.

 

For my case(new bird buying 2nd hand bike, gan cheong so nv notice the condition), juz becoz i fancied the PS2 paintwork however only after the day i rode out, the condition was really jia lat.

 

List of Major Wear & Tear Maintenance(Within 1st 6 mths)

 

Bike unable to start 3 times for the 1st mth(Have to Tow):-

- cdi koyak(Kena rain water, or maybe the time is up for the poor cdi)

Fixed: Changed 2nd hand RR cdi $150

- Wet plugs(YEs, after a big rain) then i realised that all the 4 plug caps are spoilt, water can easily sipped in.

Fixed: Replace the caps with 2nd hand original caps($30 bucks for 4)

- Clutch cable snapped

Fixed: Replace the cable $48(Inclusive of tow)

- front tyres wrapped

- the rear rim was dented

Fixed: Replaced with a 2nd hand rear rim, changed a set of new front and rear tires as well as wheel bearings $500

- fuel consumption is 180km(AHEM I MEAN Full tank, NOT until Reserve)

- Plugs keep fouling Changed 4 plugs within 1st mth($12 each, so total is $48)

Fixed: Carb service, changed 4 x big o seal, and 1 x small o seal $120

 

Total cost of the 'touch up' is abt $850 juz to fix up my bike into a normal and 'ridable' state within 1st 3 mths... of coz there r more stuffs which i'd done up subsequently. This is juz a rough guide of my own g4 experience. all depends on case by case basis. Hope this can help a bit..

 

Has never gave me any major headache or breakdown since... and of coz there are other basic maintenance like EO change, plugs and chain which is quite standard la.
