haha yes planet for me is the best.. never chop u plus still can ask discount... My ver s also which i bought 2 mths ago has spent abt 1k repairing it and i still have some minor repairs needed.. tyre wise the chepest n reliable one shld be dunlop arrowmax.. heard of shinko as well but scared nowadays heavy rain.. dunno can perform or not..i think u shld stick with minimum dunlop in my opinion

[STRYKER]

I also change mine at shop at safra tampines, i walk to 4 diff shop to ask for batt price, got one shop selling at $65 yuasa batt, another selling at $70.. i guess next time try walking ard so u can get the cheapest price bro.. anyway, after changing batt, they shld also test to see if ur batt is charging properly also..

 

Yeah its best to go ard checking the price...for myself,i've learnt not to get too comfy with the mechs coz one u r comfy with them,they tends to take advantage of u and do thing chin chai, try to upsell u...so i always shop hop...today go A shop nxt mth go B shop the following wk go Z shop...usually they'll do things properly on ur first few visits just to get u coming back...heehehee....

Wa. Although got logic but sad lei. Some shops may not bother anyway if they suspect u r e few visits type. Then also negative results isnt it?

 

Think best is still be able to find a trustworthy shop. For me, ve been with my shop for 7 years. Never had any after service problems. Somemore can go back do free stuff also when they free.

 

I even ask them help me look after bike when i go overseas. Then for my old bike, everytime service will auto help me adjust chain, lube chain, etc. Maybe standard stuff but i seldom shop hop so dunno market practice. ^^

 

Sadly i agree for every trusted shop there r more than 9 carrot shops. as long as u r comfortable with ur preference then good ba. Then again a reliable mechanic is similar to a doctor. He noes ur bike and ur pattern, preference, etc.

If first visit act blur also might negative results. For eg: some shops tat sells bikes or accessories. ^^ but c luck also ba. And since u not real newbie, can smell carrot cooking so still quite safe. ^^

 

for me, both my 2a bike and cls2 bike not buy from them de. becoz they dun sell bike!! Lol. But they do help but its not their main business. Like they dun mind ur bike put there they help sell, etc. But they dun buy bikes.

 

Ur case.

Its good to go to shops that dun sell bike...coz u wont be tempted by their salesman to change bike n they wont be prejudiced towards ur bike...hahaha...like my case,they noe i bot from their rival company n happens that the shop i bot it from is very negatively rated everywhere,so they tried their luck unsuccessfully with me...like u say i act like newbie but if they try to carrot me,can smell the soup oredi from far far....hehehe...anyway im just here to share experiance as a consumer n rider only...

[seb9312]

[seb9312]

[danielling1981]

I think handlebars should be a standard component? Should be all type can fit all bikes. Except for some with particular angles, lengths or height.

 

I ve seen pictures of those harley high reach handlebar on scooters. E person ride standing. ^^ (poser type)

 

Ps: got a aprilla rider bought my stick fz1 gen 2 handlebar btw. No complains from him. S4 should be fine. But dun take my word for it.

[seb9312]

Navigate to vehicle transfer fee den enter the bike number n intended date of transfer den u'll b able to see the summary of the log card which includes the yr of manufacture,date of registeration,bike make n model,chassis number & etc....
