Paiseh.TT900.... Maybe i heard wrongly.Cause i asked how much is it for 16" and he just replied 95RM.Couldn't be for a pair right? So whats the market rate like?190RM works out to about SGD 79 only.Can get cheaper?

[alifk69]

u mean the new ah boy at ah gua lane or the old one opposite the petrol station?

[-fazly-]

ahakz! i tot tt100, so rm190 for a pair is damn expensive! TT900 around rm75-95 in kl, so i guess about the same in jb.

 

jb got many accs for nouvo elegance?

[Jixiang]

wah! Is there anything in Singapore? All talking about JB. I understand but I don't know how to go....

[alifk69]

as usual, everything from rice to petrol to bike stuff to eggs to etc etc are cheaper in malaysia. i suggest u go with a friend who knows his way ard in jb.. but i must warn u.. although prices are low, dont expect super perfect workmanship or warranty..

[williamleesg]

yeah,i got bad experience from malaysia bike shop with my 1st nouvo.. everything tell me can can,can fit,in the end cannot fit then they say must cut lah,drill lah.. very jialat man.. my suspension fixed 1 month spoil liao.. never went back there again.. now all my servicing and accessories i get from singapore..

[y2kredbull]

Somethings like small acc i.e levers,exhaust cover ,brake disc can get from jb lah.internal stuffs i do in singapore.i went to jb ahboy nr the orange petrol stn.u must tell them to list the items when paying.if not they will chop u.

[Jixiang]

wah. Malaysian are so cunning ah??

[-fazly-]

tats bad! so embarassed. hak3! they are trying to get every money from u.

 

besides, if u love ur country buy from ur country. ur economy will grown n those parts someday will be cheaper in spore.

 

price comparison good for others who familiar with jb. when they service ur Bike ask them politely and always use ur consumer right, things will be better.

Does it work? How much can I save from this?

 

Actually take a fuel savings with a pinch of salt as most don't work. If it works, you also need to spend first before you can save.

 

A simple caculation:

 

SG average is 20k km per year. Assuming you get 5% savings which I think is really good, at fuel consumption of 40km/l and $1.60 per litre, you only save $40 a year. I think that thing cost $100+. So you are looking at 3 years before you start to save.

 

Just by riding more on highway these few days get me in the 50km/l range. So this is real savings w/o costs

Bro Jixiang, please backtrack on your comments:nono: In the world of 6 billion population, every where there are cunning people. I do have counterparts in Malaysia, they are the same as us. Business as usual as i can say.

Apart of the reason why i stop patronising the workshop there long long time ago....

We, the Singaporeans are to be blame. Only JB the price are expensive compared to Malacca and Negeri Sembilan. Batam and Bintan, their price are tagged to Sing Dollars . Why, you may ask? Singaporeans go there and always have the mentality that " wah, cheap cheap, must buy" and as a business owner, they must think, "Am i quoting that cheap?"

Do ride safely these days, almost raining everyday..
