subsequently i added stuff to my box to make it heavier so wont be so wobbly...can ask donghai how vulnerable to wind my bike is when he had the chance to ride behind me...ahahaha...after awhile den get used to it liao, but i find it kinda dangerous still...

 

digress abit, while i was on my way from ntu to eunos on PIE yesterday ard 540pm, there was slow traffic ard the bt batok exit (?) cuz there was tis vespa that toppled somewhere in btw the first n second lane...there wasn't anyone ard the bike when i passed it though, maybe cuz i din look ard at the rd shoulders ba...the scooter looked fine though, no crumpling of metal or anything...so the rider should be ok i guess...just be careful! you're on two wheels after all...stability is an impt factor...

 

back to topic, why did you buy such an old bike?? FE plate is like aeons ago...isit worth the repair n restoration fees? usually it would be more worthwhile to get a newer bike and spend less on changing stuff...

 

i've been to alexandra area before and visited like 2-3 bike shops there...near the food centre there got very obvious big shops (got huge garage etc)...one quoted me quite a reasonable price for a honda fuel injection kup before...so can try it out...can't remember the shops' names but if you visit the food centre there its kinda impossible to miss...

oh okies ya its near the food centre there hrmphs seems like no one from bbdc goes there ! haha.. but always see so many bikes..

 

but dun wish to go alone.. scared later kanna carrot head !

 

anyway wat bike ur riding?

the boss did told me if got any problem, i can go back to his shop w/o charging me.. but of cos if i want to change any parts then got to charge lor.. :cheeky:

dun let him charge u, even if have to change parts..

the bike is supposed to be problem free now..

 

even if u take the bike to 2nd link and open full throttle at final gear.. it still shouldn't have problem..

 

if u dun dare, then get someone to do it for u..

going top speed is a way to test the bike..

not damaging engine or wat..

i think one of the cheapest shops that sell second hand bikes is Bike Production at serangoon there...both mine n donghai's are from BP (did i remember correctly?)...only thing is the guy there (ah swee) is fcuking attitude la...like wan to do dun wan to do business kind...

 

if you do go there (or anywhere else, for that matter), remember to check how many wks in house warranty they give (usually 2 wks, but cuz i forgot to ask before i paid then that guy say 1 wk den i LL), get them to change engine oil in front of you (seriously, i dun trust their words...when i went to change my EO after a whlie it was so damn black even though they said they just changed), and check ur insurance coverage (some pple got cheated before whereby you pay the price of 2nd party (meaning 3rd party fire+theft) but the insurance cert they give u from the insurance co states 3rd party only...when u query them, the bike shop says they 'provide their own in-house insurance' and they will top it up or some story...dun believe them cuz there's no proof at all and they're not supposed to be in the line of insurance...

 

so yea...do protect urself...there are alot of useful threads (checklists and other stories) in SBF, pls pls pls read them before buying ur bike k? those pple out there will chop u like cabbage thinking you're newbie...so dun appear noob to them...

I'm going to Alexendra tomorrow. I'll drop by Serangoon if I can find my way there.

Thanks for the infor ya.

Anyway, I was supposed to go to Ubi today. Haiz!

hmmm.. good checklist but so late then u post.. :giddy:

i tot those interested in buying would have searched ard for tips in sbf first ma...somemore mabel u long time member lor...kekeke...last nite happen to come across again den shun bian post :angel:

 

actually it was because of my desire for info on bikes that i joined SBF...somehow googled my way into this forum and it turned out to be kinda my best source of good reliable and relevant info...if i purely went for lessons for the sake of a licence i doubt i would have even known abt SBF... :cheeky: haha like how i got cl3 w/o ever realising got such ting as car forum...

 

check out the date i joined...lol...member since 19 jan, 21 jan i paid for my bike liao...and i registered cuz only members can use the search function... :lol:

 

didn't come across that checklist when i bought my bike though...think it's even better than the ones i read last time...but doubt anyone can remember all the details unless you print it out... :goodluck:
