Hi.

 

I would like to join that order.... however i will have the same problem as before with the stickers, having to rely on someone with PayPal, facing delays etc.

 

So i take the advice i was given by someone "don't go for this overseas sending thing" and pass on it.

Hey.

 

I posted a question there yesterday, namely if someone from "overseas" (me, and it's actually only land between us) can buy that shirt. MY QUESTION WAS DELETED INSTEAD OF ANSWERED.

 

Are you all a bunch of chickens? If i can not order that shirt SAY SO and don't silently delete the question.

 

Nice elite club you've got there. Why not bolt a sign above the door "Singaporean Zeckers ONLY".

 

I'm outta here.

 

Thanh

 

 

 

hey i dont want to be the middle man here, but isn't this your post above? its not deleted. please dont misunderstand this.

[Thanh-BKK]

Hi.

 

No i was talking about my post on the ning site (RXZLovers). I asked there "Overseas can? PayPal? Without headaches..?" (screenshot exists as evidence).

 

That question has been removed and i was not even notified.

 

I don't mind if i can't order/pay for/receive the shirt even though i'd like to have one as i like the design and i also have the other one. However i'd appreciate being told so instead of having the question deleted.

 

Best regards.....

[AhGui]

Thanh,

 

Not that i want to say this, but if u find it troublesome to order something here in SG, why do u still want to order?

 

It is not say mean only for wat u say as Singaporean Zeckers Only... But the process of getting it done and the process of sending it to u will take time, and if u cannot wait like the last time, we will have another war here..

 

Let me put it simply, we also have our own commitments and things to do.. lest we forget, to err is human..

 

Hope u understand my point..

[hi577]

hi guys.....anyone here noes how much it is to overhaul the engine (change piston,rebore,change bearing,con rod)?...any shop to recommend or jb shop...i guess jb cheaper.

hey Thanh,i tot u haf posted here already dat,dont go for overseas thing...so we assumed dat u wont go...u noe it will create more problems here n dere..n yeah lets get dis thing straight once n for all...we are not nationality racists,but yeah dis is a singapore website..as dis is where singaporean bikers belong,by helping u out for da stickers,instead of u saying thank u,u jus kept quiet,as dis is our 2nd "project",let da zeckers settle internally first..if u cant wait den dun bother to tok abt it...cos u noe its not easy to get sumone who haf paypal services or so for u..I hope in future,pls stop giving remarks about Zeckers not being helpful enuff aite...

[Thanh-BKK]

Alright.

 

Thing is, i asked a question, ok? Reason for asking a question is to receive an answer, right? Or wrong? Any answer would be sufficient and i would have accepted, because i asked the question.

 

Instead of getting an answer, my question was deleted. What sort of behaviour is that?

 

As for "saying thank you" after receiving stickers many weeks after paying for them, i would have been more than correct not having said thanks, however i DID and who says otherwise is plain lying.

 

@AhGui

I don't find it difficult to order something. I just find it difficult to accept the excuses i get for not receiving what i ordered, that's all. It takes time? Wow 10 minutes....... for which i paid, too. I wasn't asking a favour but paying for a service, hence i expect the service.

 

I sell stuff on E-Bay, not as a business but about as "regularly" as receiving things from RXZ Clan or private members. How come that the day after an auction is ended and i received the money, the item is on it's way to anywhere in the word? I work full time, too.... i don't have a problem with doing that. I just don't waste my time inventing excuses, i simply do what's expected from me.

 

I have also sent stuff to RXZ clan members, no BS and no problems, received money (or other item for swap) and next day the parcel was on it's way to Singapore. If i can do it, why can't everyone..? I work up to 16 hours per day, too..... but there are plenty post offices in this city, packing an item can be done between work and bed and mailing it on the way to work.....

 

@Engineer

That is the exact reason why i asked the question. Because before passing on something i will try to find out if there is a possibility. But my question was not answered, instead it was removed. Can't get much more rude than that. An answer to the tune of "sorry, it is too difficult to arrange" would have been sufficient as i do understand such situations even though experience tells me that "difficult" is a matter of perspective. Simple tasks are difficult if i'm just not willing to do them....

 

Why don't you just ask the admin of this site to remove my account, then you can keep your community for yourself without the disturbing overseas people.... I can be a Zecker without a "Clan" behind.

 

I've got a few leftover stickers in that case, free for anyone who gives me a postal address. Guaranteed on their way next day.

[2strokeONWER]

CHILL AH...Y ppL seems to have PMS these days....haiyoo....btw to all me n ikal tot of goin to SAKURA on 3rd July...sort of double date....any couples interested??? not an event but just goin for dinner....any ting kol me k... ZECKERS MATRIP....

[AhGui]

Thanh, u have to know wat time we work till and wat the THE POST OFFICE CLOSES!!!

 

Sometimes we cannot even leave our workplace..... If u dunno how the workings of things are in singapore, PLEASE DO NOT ASSUME....

 

As for your question on the ning site, i also did not see it...

 

If u asked the question here, i think ppl will reply u but if they missed it, they cannot be blamed...

 

Yes, u do sell stuff on ebay or swap stuffs with ppl here or anywhere else, but u dun understand how difficult it is to find ways and means to SNEAK out frm WORK, go to the post office and do the deed.

 

I have also sold stuff online and sell them online too, normally i would put a prefix to let them know that shipping time may vary....

 

Regarding the stickers issue, i put it simply as that there was miscommunication between both parties, there were other items involved together with the stickers...

 

Lastly, if i never remember wrongly, during the sticker issue, u said that u will not be posting anymore, but here u are, saying the same thing again, the mod need not remove u, u can always remove urself if u deem fit...

[Thanh-BKK]

Yeah yeah.

 

Of course you did not see the question on ning BECAUSE IT WAS DELETED. That's the whole point, nobody can see it because someone DELETED IT and that someone must be the admin there! Even i myself can not delete my post there, but SOMEONE can - and DID. As mentioned i have the screen shot to prove that i did indeed post it, because if i go into my profile i can see all postings there, also the ones that "magically" no longer appear on the site itself.

 

The post office in on the way to my office opens at 8:30 morning, closes at 12 for lunch, opens again 1 pm and closes at 6. That's Monday to Friday. However there are post offices in malls etc that have the same opening hours as the mall, which can be 10:30 am to 8 pm seven days per week. Although i don't have one anywhere close to me that is open on Sunday, but the one at Central World is.

 

So if i WANT to send something i CAN send it. Nobody works 24/7 and at the same time does not know anyone else who could drop something off at a post office. Did i mention "excuses" before..? It's the same with payments, i know PayPal is a pain in the behind however i asked (during the sticker period) multiple (!) times for the presence of Western Union, which usually is conveniently located at malls, office buildings or bank branches - however those questions were eagerly avoided and i never received a reply. Sure, if everyone keeps pretending they are unable to receive money then sure nobody needs to send something.

 

Why am i still posting here? Because at times technical questions come up that remain un-answered and i CAN answer them, after all my diploma says something about "motorbike" and "mechanic" and i like to help people. Plus i gather experience in riding an RXZ, every day some 50 kilometers more, and can and want to share tips and tricks. Is it appreciated? Well, i don't know. If you want to stay among yourself feel free to do so. But if i see "tips" such as "no need to change the EO, topping up is enough" then that HURTS. And the newbie who receives such "tip" and follows it due to lack of knowledge will wonder why his clutch will be damaged.

 

This is not the only forum i'm on, there's also a Germany-based Zundapp forum (the brand i worked on and rode before) as well as an India-based forum where i participate in a couple of Enfield-threads because certain Enfield-Models are equivalent (license builds) to Zundapp.

Excuse me, have u ever been to singapore? or even stayed for more than a month?

 

I also ride at least 50km a day, no diff, i have knowledge in the automotive field as well... I would say u are being arrogant with that sentence, if u really are unhappy here, why would u bother if someone gave the wrong tip?

 

And even if so, i can only call the fellow stupid and brainless..... if u feel that u can CONTRIBUTE to something here, go ahead.... WE ALL GOT COMMITMENTS also....

ermm, i can also answer when i am free, but just i did not phase it properly thus causing confusion:sweat:

ermmm, experienced in rxz, i believe some of us here can dismantle the whole bike and assemble it back for troubleshooting/maintenance.

regarding the "tips", if u really know how the EO does it job, u will not make this comment, damaged clutch can be caused by other factors if u really know ur bike.

:btw:no offense to anyone:popcorn:

[Thanh-BKK]

Hmm.

 

@AhGui

And which part of your rant has got anything to do with what i posted..? Where, please, am i being "arrogant"..? If you can't read the sense in my words don't comment on them.

 

Everyone who can change a light bulb has knowledge in the electrical field.

 

Everyone who can change a spark plug has knowledge in the automotive field.

 

I myself however have gone through three and a half years of practical education ("professional training") with one theoretical and practical exam in the middle and at the end an i have earned a diploma which makes me precisely a "Zweiradmechaniker Fachgebiet Zweitakt-Verbrennungsmotoren", i.e. (translated) "professional motorbike mechanic, specialized in two-stroke engines". I have various add-ons (additional training courses) which permit me to also work on cars, by the way, such as clutch/tyre/exhaust service and auto-electrics (but to be honest i am not that good in the latter). Hence i feel qualified to answer technical questions, the only issue i have is that of language barriers. As some things i do not know in English.

 

No, i have never been to Singapore but i know a large number of Singaporeans, some of them since 10 years because i was in daily contact with them when i was still in Germany (i was a channel operator in a Singapore-based IRC network). Chinese, Indians, Malays. Initially i was even planning to move to Singapore however my plans got changed and it was to become Thailand instead.

 

Anyway the issue at hand is the fact that i posted a harmless question expecting an honest answer regardless negative or positive, this question has not been answered but instead was removed. So i was not only blunt ignored but outright "kicked out" for no reason and that's what i am complaining about. And i do believe i have all the rights to do so. If you can justify what happened there (on the ning site, to which i was invited by the way, as i was to the polo shirt - i received in fact an e-mail with the offer!) then i'm satisfied. As you know from before i can take many things but just one i can't stand - unfairness (and distortion of the truth).

 

@SparkerS1

And if YOU really know how engine oil works then you wouldn't post such nonsense either. Do you think ALL manufacturers recommend a certain change interval just for fun? As they don't recommend certain brands of oil they can't be sponsored by oil companies either.... so it might just have got something to do with the longevity of the engines, no?

 

Dismantling and putting together a motorbike is no big deal if you got tools (and as long as it is not a Ducati). However knowing what's wrong with it, WHY that is wrong and how not only to fix the symptom but also the cause, THAT is why some people go through professional training. Everyone (well most at least) can change a clutch, specially since on an RXZ it is REALLY easy to do. However not needing to change it in first place, isn't that a better idea..?

I am trained in the field of automotive technology, but do i say it here, NO, but because u are saying it here, i am saying it now... secondly, i am experienced in both the theory and practical aspects of both 2 and 4 stroke engines, does not matter if motorbike or car or boat or plane...

 

If u were invited to the site, i dunno who invite u..

The email sent is auto-generated email informing all member of the site to a new alert....

 

Seriously thanh, i dun want to waste my time arguing with u, if u think u are right, go ahead, i have read what u have written many times and i have not replied much, but this is too much...

 

i am normally a mild-tempered person, but this is too much....... so wat if u have friends of more than 10 years in singapore? SO DO U THINK I GIVE A DAMN?

oh well, u are indeed the professional here.

just tat i am not qualified enough thus ppl think i posting nonsense, nv mind time will tell whether wat i shared is true or rubbish, sometimes it takes to try to believe, not to just based on written facts, change EO at intervals yes correct but for 2 strokers at every 3000km is a waste of money IMO, nv mind again, i can share wat i know but u sounded like i am forcing ppl to do wat i said, after all its up to individual on who to trust and believe, its their choice, i not forcing anyone to heed my suggestions either.

life must move on, i think tat alot of ppl thinks tat i post nonsense advices in this thread, haizzz, off i go, no more of seeing me in this thread i guess

i am normally a mild-tempered person

haha, i am chill and relax person, time for me to give u a hug?

Then simply stop wasting your time replying

Then don't ask me about my experience with Singapore if you don't give a damn for the answer to your question. At least i answer questions instead of deleting them.

 

Any more questions or can we go on with life?

Stop lying will you?

 

I never "told you i will not deal with you again", neither in private nor in public. In fact i said something completely different when i was in touch with the one guy who actually made up for the other's failures.

 

If the possibility is 0 that's fine - if i am told so!! Again this is what it's all about, my question was not answered but deleted. If it was answered i would have no problem.

 

And nobody "helped me out of goodwill" because last time (why do you keep bringing that up anyway? Still trying to save face??) i paid at the same time as anyone else so it became a business - i paid FIRST (i.e. before the item was even available) and everything that was to follow is no "favour" or "goodwill" but simple business - get me what i paid for. I paid for shipping as well AND i reimbursed the person whoever had to go to the post office for their time, too! So yes, after i paid you (or whoever agreed to the deal in first place) was indeed my salesman and i was his customer, no more and no less.

 

Just stick it with that old story because it has nothing to do with the new one, here and today it is about "why can't i get a question answered and why was it deleted instead". If i receive an e-mail offering me to "order here now" then i expect to be able to do that. Out of courtesy i ask first, expecting and accepting any answer - finding my question removed and no answer given, and my complaint about that kicks up a war with old topics brought back to life.

 

In the future better mark your sales "local members ONLY" and everything will be fine.

hello guys..

i jus got my bike and im thinking of changing my sprockets to perhaps 15f 42r rather then my stock sprockets size.

Dont mind me asking, where do u guys usually change ur sprockets? oh and how much does it cost?

if im not wrong, its better to change ur chain together with sprockets kan?

So total eh, the sprockets and the chain how much eh?

 

thanks a billion in advancee! heh..

 

In singapore change to whole set of hard duty cost between 30 - 50

In JB maybe between 50-90Rm

Change must be the whole ste with chain and sprokets.
