Hai.. my SYM RPM react very strange.. it's only operating normal.. after few KM rides, morning when the engine is cold. it's not working at all.. is it the rpm or some cabling fault ? any experience with this ?

 

You probably need to make a check on the RPM cable that's connected to the speedometer.... a few things could be involved like the ignition plug coil or the cdi unit. check with your mechanic

Hey Huferin, you can consider the full servicing package at $190 instead! Thats going to be alot more worth it and it comes with engine oil, oil filter and spark plug as well!

Hi Mark, currently riding a SYM JOYRIDE 200i EVO but my bike only starts to move after 4k rpm is it normal? And by the way I had just changed my belt and rollers about 3 months ago, however I still find that pickup from standstill and in gear acceleration is sluggish. Do I need a clutch and vartiator setting or replacements. Thanks Mark. Anyway how to improve my ride's topend.

Hi Wayne, it is a pleasure to understand what your scooter problems are. It is fine to move off at 4k rpm. If you are looking for a set of performance upgrades, i may have some pretty good and cheap options available for your scooter. If you do not mind, give me a call at 81819511 or send me a text msg to make arrangements.

Hi, My SYM JoyMax300i is hitting the 11k mark soon. Any recommended servicing needed? 1st time scooter rider...

[bike_craze]

Hi Mark, my gilera will stall when i stop at traffic juntion or when i stop my bike.. The engine will just die off when i should be idling.. What could be the reason?

[Shaiek]

Hi. I am a new rider. I don't know much about bikes. Just recently got myself a second-hand Gilera.

 

Any tips for me?

 

Also, the bike I'm riding now has small mirrors which I find it hard to view. Any suggestions where can I change my mirrors?

 

Appreciate all the kind assistance.

 

Have a nice weekend.

Dear fellow scooterist, beware when dealing with Mark Yeow.

 

This is a true story of mine and people who wants to deal with him deserve to know what kind of person you are dealing with especially with your bike.

 

My nightmare begins when I have entrusted my scooter with him last sept. Paid deposit of 250sgd and left it at his then workshop located at Ubi. Kept giving me excuses when I asked him about the repair status.

 

I felt something is not right and went over to Ubi workshop and found out he have moved out and my scooter was missing. Had a hard time getting him to pick up my call. When I finally found him, told me he have shifted to Kaki Bukit. A fellow friend warned me that he had a track record of dishonest behaviour and apparently he was served writ of summon for over charging his client. (Enclosed link)

 

It just coincidently the writ of summon was served at the same time he shifted to kaki bukit which I believed he was force to due to the writ seizure.

 

 

 

Long story short... to summarise.

1. He moved my scooter without informing me.

2. I demanded a refund and was lied twice that he did transfer the monies he owed to me.

3. I lost my 2 helmets; one of which was an Italian Vespa design helmet bought from Italy.

4. At the end, my beloved scooter have to be scrapped due to COE expired.

 

This is not a defamation and I standby my statement and I have all the records, pic, SMS to prove when needed.

 

I have been patience and even give him some time to sort out his mess as long as I am able to get back my deposit which he never delivered. I rejected his offer to meet him at his workshop to settle today unless the monies he owed me was transfer back to my account. I have been lied more than twice and by his untrustworthy actions.

 

I will proceed to authorities and bring this case to small claim court.

You are such a scheming liar. Taking the advantage of a defamation link and hope that we will comply to you.

 

I have moved your scooter because we did not want it to go missing and be held responsible if anything happened to it.

 

1.) It would be really dumb for me to have the intention of stealing your scooter (this is Singapore)

2.) You were not present during the scrapping of your vehicle and (Bikebulance witness the scrapping of the vehicle)

3.) You misplaced your helmet and didn't bother to pick it up only after 6 months

4.) You lied the cost of the helmet purchase and expected us to refund you at an exorbitant rate.

 

I pity the way you are handling this issue my friend. It is very clear that you are twisting and turning your words and i have given u the opportunity to have your refunds in cash and in person so as to avoid a dispute but you refused to make your way down to settle the matter. We take this issue very seriously with you now and I hope you are prepared for the damages you have caused. Good luck!
