1) which Petrol stations do u guys usually go to pump petrol?..How much do u guys normally spent on Petrol a mth..Is there a certain type of petrol to recommended?..My bike is Yamaha Spark 135..

 

2) Is the P-plate oni available at the Driving centres?..can i get it from any bike shops? at how much it normally cost ther?

 

3) Is there any recommended place to get repair jobs..Any particular bike shops in Ubi area for repair work and Stuff..Bcos I live in Hougang Area..I think it will be more convenient for me juz in case smthing happens..

 

4) How much does it cost for season parking a mth?

 

5) I have read that carrefour sells one of the cheapest bike care stuff..Is that true?..Any other places to buy good washing and cleaning equipment?

actually, petrol is subjective, but most tend to like to pump more expensive high octane patrol like esso 8000, mobil/shell 98, shell v power. for bikes the diff in price not alot cos small tank, but performance can mean alot cos ours small bikes.

 

2) Is the P-plate oni available at the Driving centres?..can i get it from any bike shops? at how much it normally cost ther?

 

even harware shops sell, i suggest just post a want to buy advert and someone will approach you, infact some kind souls will just pass on for free if they no longer need it.

 

3) Is there any recommended place to get repair jobs..Any particular bike shops in Ubi area for repair work and Stuff..Bcos I live in Hougang Area..I think it will be more convenient for me juz in case smthing happens..

 

hougang, you can go to this bike shop near serangoon mrt. its some super old shops just after the mrt going towards potong pasir. cannot remember the shop name, but owned by this uncle. very fas job and honest, won't cheat you and not expensive.

 

4) How much does it cost for season parking a mth?

 

not sure. sorry.i park at home

 

5) I have read that carrefour sells one of the cheapest bike care stuff..Is that true?..Any other places to buy good washing and cleaning equipment?

 

thats a good place to start with. but bike easy to maintain. the stuff you buy probably will las you at least a year. infact bike just wipe down every few days with wet cloth can liao. then polish every month or so.

 

6) I like to knw the CBDs areas in S'pore. Very blur abt that..

 

too many friend. guess you just have to put in you cashcard into your iu when you ar riding just incase you see one. bike entering cbd not so expensive so don't need to worry too much. anywya something you did not ask. parking coupons. i suggest don't stinge on it cos you only pay 65 cents for the whole day so summons are not worth it.

Hi..I'm also riding Spark 135...

I can answer some of your questions..

 

1) i usually go either Shell or Esso/Mobil...98..

 

2) P-plate available at many shops..not too sure abt pricing..

 

3) If Ubi, u can go down to Planet Motors..

 

4) Season Parking is $15/mth...

 

5) Not too sure abt this...But i heard from one forumer carrefour got sell 4T quite cheap...

 

6) i also blur about CBD areas..

[skai]

1) depends on individual. choose the petrol company of your choice, and stick to the octane level. try not to pump different octane/company's petrol. e.g for me i always pump shell95.

 

2)hardwareshops, bike shops, supermarket, easiest place - petrol kiosk confirm have

 

3) i think bike shops in defu lane and yio chu kang rd(serangoon stadium) is nearer to hougang.

 

4) open carpark is $15/mth. multi-storey carpark i think is $17/mth.

 

6) go to onemotoring website to check. you'll know it by heart after riding for sometime.

Hi there,

 

I started a thread comparing whether scooters or cubs would be more suitable for ladies.

 

Scooter or Cubs for ladies

 

Do visit it and give your opionions please.

 

Thanks in advance.

[nonipops]

Hey Cubs come in and share about your strengths vs scooters...

[Ah_KinG]

My friend and i just got a second hand sparks recently, both FBA plate

 

but when we put our bike side by side and Rev, my friend bike engine sound is abviously louder then mine, and sounded bit rough.

 

then i heard from him that maybe the ex-owner did not do a proper run-in.

 

1. so if the bike is not run-in properly, will it cause this?

 

2. what is the remedy? (i.e. will change piston and piston ring help)

 

3. Other things that might help.

 

please advise...

 

thanks

 

[thepunkz]

juz wondering how do we know tat our kup is up for overhaul?

btw, does juz changing piston helps?

hey everyone. im intending to get an x1. a fellow gf of mine got an x1 too but she isnt very sure abt the pros and cons of the bike. care to share so that i can think twice before getting it. right now what i have in mind is either a 125z, x1 or a sparks 135.

 

btw i just gotten my license so do you think x1 would be a good bike for a new rider? thanks alot!

125z is a 2 stroke bike...so need to use 2T..whereas spark and x1 is 4 stroke.. either an x1 or spark is a good choice...
