Just Got A Honda Deauville 650

[slush]

I have just bought a NT650, 7 year old bike. This is my first tourer and my first class 2 bike. I need some advise, where is the best workshop to send this type of bike for servicing. I'm planning to hit down M'sia after a month or 2 and prefer the bike to be fully serviced. Pls suggest some workshop with good workmanship with reasonable price. Do provide with address if possible.

Tks guys..............

You mean Looi's quoted you 18K OTR

 

That is a good price, one month ago I was quoted at 21K

 

Well is a better or more reasonable price for those who wanted to get De Deauville, dont quote me

[slush]

Guys, internet was down on and off, so couldn't reply. Well the Deauville I got for is $4900 machine price, all in on the road came about $5400. FS plate, condition so far ok. Front disk break only, standard brembo.

 

I seen a few of these model including the NT700, but my budget wise has to setlle down with this. On top of that I was holding to a Honda wave which this shop take in for $2100. The shop sales man is a friend of mine, so that how I've got the deal.

 

Anyway, I'm interested with the new ST1300 which I plan to get next year end or so. Currently I'm pretty happy with Deauville, good bike to ride around S'pore. I went Segamat 2 weeks back and it was fun cruising around 160, pretty smooth and comfortable.

Hi bro Slush,

 

I advise u that better buy Honda ST1100..Don't buy STX1300, sometimes got problem.U can ask around St1100 & STX1300 club.

Mine ST1100 are no problem.

That is a good price, one month ago I was quoted at 21K

heh heh... i also tot so, sound like a good bargain right?

but later i found out Looi's deauville is the non-ABS version lah... that's why

21k is for the ABS version which most motortiams have.

but if dun want ABS, then should go for the 18k and save the 3k

I have to quote you so please don't flame me ha ha...

 

How can it be a reasonable price when I could get a Yamaha Frazer 6 plus two givi side boxes and still cost cheaper than $18k? It just doesn't make any logical sense comparing in monetary value. Eventually, it is all about the likes and dislikes at the comfort of your expenditure.
