I just bought some parts.

 

semi synthetic oil: rm19 (castrol) discounted: rm16

tyres: Shinko, 80/90 17 - rm 125, discounted rm 115

90/80 17 - rm 135, discounted: rm 125

 

[dunno if shinko is good. i think michelin is better. also the same price. Mechanis says mechelin better. Shinko some korean brand that i dunno off. So far seems good.]

 

Spark plug: rm 12

brake pads (back): rm 28, discounted rm 25

 

 

Total i spent rm300. equivalent to about sg$125. (exchange rate SG$1 = rm 2.42)

i wonder if ah boy singapore offers the same price. i asked the owner, he say his prices are slightly cheaper. if it is at leats 30% cheaper than it is worth it to travel all the way down.

 

additional info: i also asked the indian mechanic and he told me that kips full service is only rm 120. dunno if it is worth it. Share w me what u think okies...

This is known as "old shop", the "new shop" is at AGL. Been patronising them for 4yrs.

[duo]

You promoting the shop to get better discounts is it?

[fabianau]

wow that's quite cheap man. where the place at? is it also at bapok lane?

[Ronsonal]

TS, can u provide directions to this place? thanks

[chinhuahaw]

when i saw the photo, suddenly my heart " piang " i buy that item price also same, but is in SGD

[bikesbikes]

Hey guys. i am not promoting the shop lah! hahaha. Just sharing some pics since i was there. u ungrateful snorts. hahaha. just kidding.

 

Anyways i consulted my cousin in malaysia. To get a super cheap price, he advised me to go to 1. Larkin Perdana (about 5 mins from AGL aka lorong bapok) & 2. Jalan Indah 1 (Bukit Kempas there).

 

There at Jalan Indah 1 serves mainly spare parts and accessories at WHOLESALE prices.

Disadvantage: May not have all the accessories you want in AGL. But super cheap price.

And the place is about 10-15mins riding distance from AGL.

 

 

Conclusion after have an hour talk with my cousin: Avoid AGL because that place is considered very expensive and malaysian bikers do not patronize that place normally. SO, another option is Larkin Perdana.

 

There are a few shops there. (I'll take some photos if i go there to do my full service again.) The price there would probably be 10-30% cheaper than AGL.

Route to Jalan Indah 1 (there's only one shop there) -turn right to jalan indah 1. Map

[bikesbikes]

Alternatively, for easy route, you can head to ANgsana and ride straight (about 5mins ride) until you see BHP petrol station on your right. AT this junction turn left.

 

You will be riding in a uphill and once u are going downhill, on your right will be the Jalan Indah 1. Turn right and the shop is somewhere there. I think the bike shop is quite obvious.

[bikesbikes]

Here's how you go to Larkin Perdana.

quite complicated leh, i scare i can go in cannot come out, LOLS when you will be going in again ?

[bikesbikes]

[kok_07]

[liangzai]

any bros know any bikeshop open at 12pm+??

[rxz19]

Good lobang.

Good sharing with fellow bikers.

[gohjohan]

so this thread is in the Cubs section. No wonder I can't find it. I'm hoping to go in next month, after I get GPS back from my friend

[wiseco]

yeah jalan indah (kempas area) the shop named was CHAMPION,so many people know it when u say where is kedai sparepart champion ?

but if u ask wrong person maybe they donno lol ~ the prices is yes,super cheap there.but the services im not really recommended.

if u just want to buy things and go back u install it by yourself then its ok.

other things is,not all items available there also about the quality,but not all the items are worst,depends on your luck on it

if u want buy a tyre there or sportrim , disc rotor the simple2 things,like engine oil,oil filter,spark plug,tubes,chains,sporcket,its ok.

but if want to overhaul there,then im not recomended.just want to do monthly services its ok.u can do there.

the places when u go in pick hour,yeah then u will see how many people there lol,u need to wait for a long time or u just potong line.

 

other shop that i recomended is at kangkar tebrau in the kawasan perindustrian kangkar tebrau with so many kilang2 there.

the shop more comfortable with,not crowded,the items are so many,yeah its really many items there lol.

about the prices it liltle bit expensive,maybe +RM15-25 from the shop at jalan indah (kempas).

services also nice there,got amoy furthermore lol...but still for ouverhauling im not recomended here.

if u managed to do overhauling,prefer go to authorised branch of your bike,if honda then go honda,if yamaha go yamaha.

if anything happen,yeah,u can hentam they that make ur bike more rosak. if u hentam at normal shop,they dont care lol.maybe they will ask to change other parts..lol.so just +++ money there.

 

one more thing,if u want to buy MPS (michelin pilot sporty) tyre,better do not to do so.

the tyre at the 1st time was ok,when after 2-3 month u use,then u will see how bad there tyre are.

in wet road / raining the tyre not work so well.so licin,u can feel then u ride in raining ur bike dancing lol.if u take a turn it will more dancing.

 

rather than MPS better use DUNLOP tt900 or duro,shinko is ur right choice than MPS.

dunlop tt900,shinko,duro,maxxis,corsa is all recomended tyres.

michelin pilot sporty i call it melicin,lol.

 

maxxis m6002 - 70/90 = rm85 , 80/90 = rm95 , 90/80 = rm115-120

maxxis ma3d (diamond) - 70/90 = rm95 , 80/90 = rm110-120

dunlop tt900 - 70/90 , 80/90 = rm75-90 , 90/80 - rm120 , 80/80 (rare size) = rm95-115 , 70/80 - RM75-85

 

for dunlop with **/80 at the back,a bit expensive because of low profile tyre

the side wall is thin.
