[maniahk]

hey dudes.. i'm taking my 2a on nov21 actualli, but came across quite a good offer for a dragstar so i'm thinkin whether i should actualli buy it first? any comments? haha

[dreamwalk]

put 10% deposit and take his log card 1st lor.

 

after you pass den do the transfer.

[sgstarrider]

NO.

After u pass practical test, den u go shopping.

 

If u F--L test, what will happen to ur deposit money?

Seller will not want to wait longer if u F--L.

 

Seller will lose many intrested buyers because have to wait for you to pass, but den u F--L.

 

Mai kanchong, there will always be many offers.

[dreamwalk]

actually depends on sincerity of buyer and seller la.

 

but best is you pass den buy your bike lor.

Do call him n arrange for viewing. He really really wants to sell it. Cos now he riding FJR1300 already.

 

About the xfer thing, i not sure if ur details like Class of Vehicles that u can drive/ride will show when the LTA counter clerk check ur I.C leh.

 

But u can try. Dun try, dun noe.

You can buy the bike without valid license as it's common that rider is not the owner.

LTA doesnt check for valid driving license at all.

you have an option to lay up the bike. If the bike is laid up, it will be exempted from road tax. The value of the remaining existing road tax will be refunded to the new owner.

I only 2B lic but I own a Shadow ACE 400 (laid up)

lay up is different from de-register. Lay-up just means that the vehicle is temporarily not in use.

 

Mine mistake. Thought the link is for lay-up, I must have a pair dizzy eye when searching the site ha ha. Thanks for the correction.

It's very simple to lay up ur bike. U just go to LTA (10 Sin Ming Dr i think) (no need to go with the bike)

Ask them for a lay-up form. Fill up the number plate n the effective date, pay $5 and it's done.

When u got ur 2A, u shld buy the insurance 1st. Then tow ur bike to the inspection. After that u can ride the bike home alrd. :-)

 

Yah my Shadow was in very good condition with very low mileage so I just get it first lah haha .... It wasnt that cheap but heck care .. I aint gonna find this kind of engine condition anywhere else ... :-D (that's what I'm telling myself so I wont feel so bad for buying it so early hehe)
