hey a quick question for those of you who bought the bike at other shops other than boon siew. the warranty is to where ah?

[bitx]

my 6th gear 3k is about 90 or less and would be vibrating and asking me to go faster...

 

Agree. Comfortable speed at 6 gear is around 105-110km/hr for me.

Need to ask the shop....if bike is parallel import, den warranty to the shop....

But if bike was taken from boon siew, despite being sold from a different shop.....warranty 1year boon siew

ahh thanks alot.. cos i getting my bike from my fathers friend who owns a bike shop but he is not familiar with the model. he called his suppler who has the bike. I also abit afraid that when the shop preparing the bike for the first time, he dont know how to prepare properly since i getting the DCT model which he is unfamiliar with. basically DCT is just extra clutch oil and oil filter hor? any special oil used or any other things beyond the traditional bikes?

[Wizard]

is that bike gonna be an agent bike?

you need to consider after purchasing, where are you going to service the bike and does the bike shop have the necessary mech who are skilled to do servicing for your bike?

 

no doubt this is still a fairly new bike.. but there are some shops who have touches the bike b4 and already have the experience. so you may want to consider going to them also..

[nudgedoink]

yea thats the problem. but i was thinking of going to loois after purchase to do the servicings. i really doubt the shop im buying from has mechs who are skilled for this bike. my only concern now is when they first set it up for me.. afraid that they dont know about "extra" oil and filter for the clutch and oil filter.

[Wizard]

loois doesnt service non-loois bike for your info..

so i am afraid you need to re-consider your options

[nudgedoink]

oh, i just found out from the shop over lunch that it is an agent bike. I guess can go to boon siew to service. either that worst come to worst i go back bikeworks and hope that ah beng knows how to do lor...

 

or does anyone know of any other shops who have the parts and skills to service the dct model?

[Wizard]

my guess is ah beng should know how to service..

but if you are taking agent bike, why would you want to void the warranty by not servicing with agent?

because if you wanna void the warranty, might as well take a PI bike.. there should be some price difference..

 

unless of course your friendly shop gives you friendly price to match.. or ease of transaction that you prefers..

hi fellow nc700x bros,

 

1) will you all be able to enlighten me on the riding speed of this bike? i've seen post regarding its' speed at 5th gear 3krpm at ard 90-100, how is it like on 6th gear?

 

2) I'm considering to get this to replace my s4 spec1, will be using it for daily commuting as well as riding into malaysia and thailand with my wife. how does this bike hold up for rider and pillon over long distances?

 

3) also, comparing the manual and DCT, which is better? is the DCT model like semi-auto for cars - able to switch between manual (shifting gears with button) and auto?

 

thank you bros for the help.

1) 6th gear than 90-100 on 3k rpm

2) you will enjoy a smooth ride as long as you cruise within your comfort speed. you will get the best fc compared to most bike.

3) each has pro and con, dct's auto mode will be very useful in the jam, manual is reliable imo

used to pump 95 for RM30+ for S4 spec 2 full tank in JB, now I only need RM20+. a saving of ~RM10 per full tank which give me the same distance of 300KM+. Hope this help

Bro, don't mind me asking, is it worth it to go JB to pump petrol for bikes like s4 and nc700x? cos the fuel tank is rather small, and can only accumulate to est 300+ km per tank.
