hi guys , i brought my bike in to boon siew recently as there was this very apparent metallic scraping sound between 1k 2k revs between the 1st and 2nd gear. i believe the sound is there too at higher gears, its just that you cant hear it too well as its drowned out by the other noises when you ride. the mechanic took it in and came about 30 mins later telling me i had to change my sprockets and chain. they changed 3 components - 2 sprockets amounting to 227 and the chain drive amounting to 189 plus 45 bucks for labour.

 

the sound is gone and its all good now however when i told my colleague after coming in to work the next day, he said they over charged and a job like this would generally set someone back about 350. has anyone had this same issue before and if so what are the prices someone should actually pay for a job like this? i usually take my bike to them as well for the routine servicing packages and those run between 80 to 120 bucks . should i be looking elsewhere to service my bike in the future?

 

today i brought it in for its routine service (28k) , break down of charges are as follows. should i start looking for other bike shops or is the price quoted fairly reasonable.

 

labour - 30

idiimtsu fully synthetic engine oil - 75.2

filter - 27

washer - .9

total with gst 142.42

 

cb 400 revo (2012)

27k

all stock

overcharged. filter where got 27 bucks. charge labour 30 dollar for what. bring to other place. not worth it. they dont offer value added service nor are they famous for their servicing anyways

Anyone using Lim Ah Boy's cheapo main stand for CB400 Revo?

 

For such a low price, I'm not sure if it's usable. Technically, it's just a few pieces of metal welded together, but the price difference between this and the original is huge, so I'm somewhat skeptical. Anyone knows if it's any good?

[ciscube]

If you bring to distributors, it will always be expensive. The same applies to others ..not only boon siew, including cars.

[drifter2013]

pls share tyre mileage

[kean_81]

Good day, my spec3 just renew coe. I'm thinking to overhaul it so that it can last another 10 years. Any advice which shop to go and roughly the cost of it ?

Too expensive, man. I went to Unique Motorsports to change my EO and oil filter. Total around $75 net for Amsoil 10W-40 Fully Synthetic + ISON oil filter. No additional labour or parts cost. With or without oil filter is only $10 difference.

Hi, I just want to enquire the selling price of super four in the market.

 

spec 3 with Yoshi pipe( half system)

coe till 22 apr 2024

bike is well maintained

is 10k a good price?

[captain_des]

IMHO you're better of getting a brand new bike & brand new pipe.

no amount of money can provide you "peace-of-mind"

 

pros :

brand new never molested engine

0 mileage

no additional road tax add on

everything new

got warranty

 

cons :

engine most likely molested (if its a renew coe bike)

xxxx mileage

no warranty

road tax additional up to 150% (if its a renew coe bike)

 

 

its a no brainer actually..

[idynamic]

I think TS is asking how much he can sell his for, not buying over someone else's bike, haha.

Hi all, I have this issue whereby the idling of rpm during stop going up and down. Been to work shop for so many times, problem is still there. Sometime, the rpm is normal, sometimes dying off and sometime stuck at 4K rpm. Any advise? Carb been service and tune but still the same

[pufferfis]

maybe u have an air leak in the area around ur carburator or air intake manifolds or vacuum hoses or vacuum caps?...try sprayin a can wd 40 around an area and listen to the motorcycle idle if there is any changes....and move to another area...

another probable reason could be a clogged air filter?

another probable reason could be one of your carburator diaphgram is worn out n cracked or dried and can cause a vacuum leak....or not fitted properly?

another probable reason is could be your needle jet...which is the tube looking thingie w holes in it...under your main jet....the holes could be clogged....need something plastic sharp and thin to clean the holes....

another probable reason is the o rings in your carburetor need changing....cheers

hope helps a bit....
