Inspection - Enquiry & Advice

[Huggable]

Like mentioned earlier, the light test at inspection centres is to test the beam angle. In europe, it is considered a pass/fail test. In SG, the centres have such facility, but the authorities chose not to implement it. If you noticed, most european cars have headlight leveling switch, to compensate the beam angle due to different number of passengers.

 

Looks like LTA has relaxed the headlight bulb requirements, previously only yellow (non coated) bulbs and bulbs which attained some certification (Like Philips Vision Plus) are allowed. Nowadays they allow blue coated bulbs, but still very vague on the requirements. They should specify eg, how white/blue is ok, in terms of kelvins. Aftermarket HID is still not allowed, unless you vehicle comes factory-fitted with it. No change.

How much does it cost to ask the shop to send for inspection?

Will it cost more or we go ourself to send..

 

Coz i dunno whether to let my shop send or i do it myself..

[duckit]

i think its more expensive to ask bike shop to go inspection for u . they need to earn some $ also . if ur bike no mod and everything go by e law , i think its cheaper for u ..

[ralliart_ray]

Y wanna ask bike shop to send for u? Go urself, experience alittle, quite fun!

[osiris]

yeah...

go by ownself...

cheaper.. jus pay the inspection fee and then tats it.

simple.. not complicated at all..

 

well... sending to bike shop wait they change some parts and replace older or abt to spoilt parts in your bike then will be

 

then again if the shop is decent then above will not happen but still hard to say...

 

hmm... heaadache ah... scare this scare tat.. hahahahahha...

 

experience it yourself to get a feel of it.

DIY is good and u know how they work on the testing of your bike.

Come to think of it, think all the inspection I go , the headlight part always fails, but all the time , they just tell me & still lets me pass.
