Hey Dude,

Maybe u can try lower down ur fork so tat ur corner will be

much stable.Btw Can anyone tell mi wad the price for seat wrapping.

The price for seat wrapping varies. It depends on the design you choose. A simple one with no design can cost less than 35 bucks.

I did this at the auntie shop opposite the foodcourt for $50 if memory serves.

i gt my 2b last yr 1st august. almost a yr le.. i'm 21. i haven been riding cos my mum doesn't allow me 2 buy a bike till recently i finally persuaded her! haha..

hw much will my insurance b? can some1 fill me in abt the diff between 1st, 2nd, 3rd party? i'm kinda confused here. thx alot!

 

i heard tt the manual 4 the new gilera runner is in italian.. is the english version out yet?

 

any1 gt any gd lobangs? which bike diam has a gd offer n gifs lots of freebies? haha..

 

will the person at the bike diam entertain me wen i call up n ask abt the prices? or muz go dwn 2 the bike diam n ask?

 

does any1 noe whr i can check the current, latest coe prices ah?

 

wat's the market interest rate nw if i pay by installments ah? budget la... haha

 

for those already riding their new runner(*envy) hw's the fuel consumption.. thruout the forum thr's mixed reactions leh.. some say 20-22km/l saome say 30-32km/l... kind souls pls enlighten me..

 

i read tis topic n realized tt thr's a shortage of stock 4 the new gilera runner late last mth n early tis mth.. hw long will i get my bike if i buy nw? hoping 2 get within tis few wks.. 1st time buy bike very excited la!

 

thank you guys! i really appreciate the help!

hi there welcome..

 

1stly 21 yrs old no riding experience n although almoz a yr u got ur license u still consider very new.. avg insurance will b abt 600+

 

theres no need fer a manual actually..

 

i thnk moz of d new runners were bought during d rd show.. asphoon was d organiser.. they gave lotsa freebies.. btw if u buy a new bike frm any shop try to ask fer freebies.. u shld b able to get it.. eg. helmet box raincoat moto cover etc.

 

sumtimes if u call mebe theyre beezee.. its best if u can try to get a day off durin wkdays n go down to d bike shops urself or wif a gd fren whu noes abt bikes.. u can go frm bkt merah area down to ubi.. changi etc. to compare prices.. ask d boss to breakdown d price of d bike.. frm there u noe whc shop try to eat ur $$..

 

coe?? http://www.onemotoring.com.sg/publish/onemotoring/en.html

 

interest rate i thnk abt 5%

 

avg fc is abt 25km per litre.. sum can go higher or lower dependin on how heavy u r.. ur riding methods etc..

 

theres no shortage of 06 models.. its wether u can wait fer a beta or gd price.. if ure d hurry type esp newbie whu wans to get a bike fast.. i thnk ure paying more fer it..

 

well gd luck

Here's an advice..don't care what others think.

 

I think riding a runner wearing a OW helmet is very cool. Contemplating on getting one myself.

bt i stil dun understand the insurance part... wats the diff between 1st party, 2nd party n 3rd party? the insurance u quote me.. abt 600+ is 2nd party rite?

 

i gt an offer from a motor diam at alexandar thr. otr 6.8k wif 2nd party.. wat do u guys tink?

1st party includes fire & theft + u can claim from ur own insurance

2nd party same as 1st party except u cant claim from ur own insurance

3rd party is only for other ppl to claim from u... fire & theft cannot claim

someone correct me if i'm wrong

 

for ur age... should be abt 600+ for 2nd party but i cant cfm

u have to check with bikeshops for the exact amt... they have a table for that

 

6.8K sounds like a reasonable amt... but what freebies r they giving u?

i guess the most worthwhile item to get would be the rack & box

that would usually cost abt $150

the rest like helmets, raincoats, bike covers etc etc r cheap stuffs

but of coz best if u can get all of it

[boostron]

hey guys, ive got this problem of starting my bike.. it seems tat sometimes when i wanna start it, it sounds as if my battery is flat out or there is smtg wrong wif my starter.. smtimes it gifs out a scary sound..haha

 

any advise?

[BottleCap]

i also wearing a scramb FF. I am wearing the MHR red color .... Don think too much about how pple think. its ur head thats more important

my gf is slightly taller than u

she cant plant both legs flat on the ground

but anyway i'm riding the old VXR

not sure abt the 06 version

anyway, when u collect ur bike dun straight ride home

ride a few rounds ard the bikeshop to test it 1st

if there's any problem at least its a nearer distance to push the bike to

 

ur insurance cfm not cheap. now still P plate?

for new bikes, think at least a TPFT insurance & based on ur age & if P plate should be abt $600 or so? best is to cfm with bikeshop

sure can... tip toe abit... most of us need to tip toe for runner....

 

now best... i tiptoe while riding my new baby....
