Bros,

 

I have to scrap my bike... no point repairing it, the cost is $2000+GST $140...

 

No choice bro, no money, no repair, no bike...installment still have to carry on:cry:

 

I will post the pics of my bike, once I have uploaded them...

 

Sigh.....

what happen to your bike??

[supervivid]

what happen to your bike??

 

The engine got smashed when 1 of the piston con-rod broke. More information here http://doksg.multiply.com/photos/album/15/.and_the_memory_remains..... I have posted some photos of the engine there.

 

If I wanna sell for the parts, I dont think any of the parts are worth it. Maybe the tires.

 

Who wants the tires? $70 a pair. Michelin Power Race.

so serious ah... tires thread left?

[ben2306]

any bikeshop to recommand service carb on sat??

so serious ah... tires thread left?

 

I am afraid to say, the threads on the sides are almost worn out, but the ones in the middle are still quite deep.

 

If you intend on buying it, please give me a week to settle my bike. Seems like my friend found a place which is able to change the whole engine at a cheaper price.

 

I'll let you know if my bike will be undergoing repairs or not.

wah, you must be corner king... wish you gd luck!!

[doubl3mint]

wow the damage looks pretty bad, wouldn't have known if i didn't get a look at the pics.

 

with repairs approaching that kind of figures, i really dont think it would be a good idea to get it done.

 

 

you would probably be better off getting another bike bro, might wanna consider writing this one off as a loss?

 

 

 

btw, with regard to scrapping procedure, it appears that LTA have changed their regulations.

 

according to my mech, whom i approached a few weeks ago to discuss how i should go about scrapping a bike, in the past, it was sufficient to present the engine cover and chassis number.

 

however, the policy has changed. apparently, when scrapping you need to preserve a skeletal outlook, ie. can take out fairings, handgrips, meters, etc. it must still looks like a bike though, so stuff like the rims, tyres must be present.

 

i cannot confirm this though, so if any bros here knows for sure, please let us know

Hey bro,

 

Thanks for the advise. Will take a note of them.

 

Anyway, I have second thoughts about scrapping it. I have not ride it enough. It's been only 3 months, and still under installment to have this thing happened.

 

My friend told me that a bike shop has a g4 for scrap, but the engine is still in good condition, still need some re-working, but as long as it is legal, and a cheaper alternative, I think I'll get more info on this great deal.

 

Thanks for the advise...

[doubl3mint]

ah, alrighty, good luck with that, hope you get your ride up and running soon =)

Thinking to get a beat up G4 for restoration project, I would need the left front fork, tires, chain, who;e set of faring and fuel tank. Alternative you can buy that beat up gixxer and slavage the engine.

Guys,

 

I do not wish to place an offer for my bike parts yet. My bike will be undergoing repairs, if I can get a confirmation from another mechanic about a new engine.

 

I'll keep you posted once I get the confirmation.

 

Thank you all.

You have to check with the insurance company.

 

For a guide, mine was $465, age 25, riding experience less than 2 yrs and applies to Suzuki and NTUC. This was last year October.

That was 3rd party. It is high because I only started riding in 2007. Got my 2A at 2008.
