Engine oil RM71 voltronic, chenage every 4k km
Gear oil RM22 LiquiMoly every 4k km
4k km for me mean four month plus
Other service i do every year with NVX
-roller
-pulley, clutch etc usually under RM150

Do you mean you change the rollers?
Are you using original Yamaha or aftermarket like Malossi? Or Dr Pulley? Or Uma? etc..?

ABS saved my ass a few times from hard braking n going down, so do consider a bike with ABS

NVX is quite comfy n torque-y if u ride alone plus rather stable for a scooter due to its larger wheels n tires

Braking is a lil soft last I tested but u wouldn't want instant bite n lock up too I assume

A scooter's maintenence is always gonna be higher compared to kapchai though

ABS is game changer for me
yup braking is soft, so you need brake early
so far i never have problem with brake

Hi guys, I need a recommendation & ur opinion.

I'm working at genting & right now travel on weekly basis from s.alam. I'm planning to travel daily from s.alam to genting soon due to family commitments.

Now i'm using fz150 old model (year 2007) & want to find new bike for daily travelling.

Can u suggest me suitable bike? I'm interested in scooter cause more relax & tired of clutch plus need more space for raincoat & laptop. Currently looking at nmax, vario & nvx (last choice coz expensive).

Budget around 8k but willing to spend more if worth it (2nd hand also can). but I don't know whether scooter can tahan naik bukit hari2 ? or better get kapcai  confused.gif ..

What about 2nd hand 2-3 years old PCX? It's about RM8k. Comfy, huge fuel tank (360km for full tank). Large under seat storage. All LED ligthing system, built in alarm.

As for maintenance, engine oil change every 5,000km (Honda brand RM20 a litre). Final drive oil every 2 years (normal 10W-30 engine oil only, just 0.12L), belting every 20,000km (RM90 original) and roller (RM40). Spark plug every 10,000km (RM20 original). Not that expensive.

Tyres - Michelin City Grip front - RM120, rear - RM160. But plenty cheaper tyre on the market.

Based on my experience owning a 2015 PCX. sweat.gif
