Buying bike from Shop with lisence. COI

[kynamite]

Hi bros and sis. Is it possible for me to buy a bike for COI and keep it as layup? Gonna take my lisence in 3months time. But i would like to buy a bike. Can i buy eventhough i dont have lisence?

Thanks all for the advise

[Sky99]

Yes, can buy without licence.

 

But i would advice you to wait.

[kynamite]

Thanks for the advise bro. If i were to get the bike. I need to downpayment atleast how much? Since i have no need to down insurance to the shop

[RaidoN]

Depends on what bike u taking.. But is best to wait...

[epk]

Yeah bro best is to wait. Imagine the bike just sitting at your carpark.. its quite hard to resist the temptation to ride without license. Bikes are always there. Wait 4 months or even 4 years later still have one. Maybe you might come across even better ones..

[blacstarz]

its just best to wait... its not guaranteed 100% you ll get ur license in 3 months time also no offence but you know how difficult is it to pass ur TP test nowadays?? i ll would suggest like what most of the forumers here will say its better to wait.. i ve been thru this situation as well wanting to get my sp b4 i get my licenses but lucky i didn't cos i didn pass my 2b until the 3rd TP test imagine half a yr for me to control my temptation to ride my bike without license and whats worst im still waitin for my TP test..

 

what will the consequences be man..

 

caught by TP or any authorities, no more TP test for u...

 

worst case get my life or others endangered... not worth la bro...

If I m my wrg u can't lay out unless the bike is fully yrs.

[kynamite]

Thanks bros for all the advises.

[rubyliang]

you cant buy from bike shop and coi and keep as lay up plus chop

[RaidoN]

if i'm not wrong, if you buy, your bike must be park in the bike shop??

[kynamite]

Any bros, can recommand a bike shop for me to buy from without lisences?

[velocity325]

any bike shop that sell used or first hand bike..just coi and coi and sign on documents.. weather you lay up or not they don't care..lay up is another procedure..5.35$SGD with gst..

Thread title and its content does not match.

 

Is TS trying to deliberately titled it wrongly to get attention?

[velocity325]

HAHAHAHA..now then i relaise..but anyway, he has a plan..hmmm..so weird..more and more now days getting bike before they get a license..can't lta just set a age requirement..

Wait for your licence first. Laying up is not good for the bike since the fluids and rubber will disintegrate over time without being ridden. And like the rest of the bros mentioned, you cannot resist the temptation and risk losing the chance to get a licence should you ride before your TP test. There is always a bike available for you.

Be patient and wait. Focus on your test first. It is stressful enough without having the added pressure or having to pass because you have bought a bike.

[Dervin]

hey bro, are you trying to self practice with the bike?

 

bikes are like that the longer you wait the cheaper it is. So i suggest to wait till you pass you TP test. I rmb there is this frenz of mine, search for his first bike for 6 months after he pass his test.

Get license then talk.

Hi Bros out there!!

 

Anyone able to advise me whats the diff btw getting a new bike from dealer vs getting from those bike shops?

 

Happy new year to all!! Have a wonderful 2013! Cheers!

Let me put on my "evil bikeshop persona" and paint a scenario.

 

"Wahaha, this gullible newbie want to buy bike from me before he evens get a license, lagi best, he wants to lay up and leave the bike here!"

I will show and sell him a bike that is in good condition, then after he pays for the bike, slowly strip out good parts and replace it with rubbish parts. When he finally get his license and ready to collect bike, I will ketuk him again to say that these parts have deteriorated when the bike is in lay up. I will replace new ones, but you have to pay" Since he newbie, then lan-lan kena ketuk from me!

 

Is this scenario possible? Absolutely

Is this a risk you can bear?

 

Your choice.

[faun]

pass the licence first, then buy bike there alway a good bike waiting for you to buy ,a fren pass his class 2 for eight month.bike cant layup in our hdb carpark you know.

Why buy from bike shop when you can buy from dealer? Bike shop will surely mark up the price unless they are the authorised dealer/distributor.
