I have send an email to Modenas asking about "My Story" segment in their website, but nothing heard from them till now. I thought En Amir is still the head of marketing, but i believe that guy went to Naza following the path as his former boss mr Nik Danial.

Come on Modenas, better remove it if not serve d customer anything.
Its not wat u ride...d way u ride it dat counts.

What is Elegan experience after 8 years n 9 months.?
Great.

The good;
1. The bike had retained it's speed n pickup all this years. I can still manage 130km at will no problem. Left the new Honda PCX trailing 2 lamp poles last week.
2. Reliable. It has never left me stranded on the street.

Maintenance : affordable but a bit more than for mopeds.

Tips n tricks;
1. I use Bardhal transmission oil for cars. 80/90w gl5. This was leftover from my car's manual trans oil. Using it for the past 4 years, much smoother than rm 25.00 motul gear oil.
2. Engine oil changed every 2 mths. Castrol semi for scooter.
3. Charge battery every 7-8 mths. Add some ipsum salt with battery water before sending for charging. Battery life will be extended. Hv done this even with maintenance Free battery.

The bad.
The paintwork not good. Will detoriate in our hot sun. The black plastic turn grey. Solution, use Eneos dashboard protector seems to work, but after sometime, turns back to grey.
Need to change the drive belt between 1.5 years. If not fuel consumption goes up. Best FC - 32km/l. Worst - 25km/l for me at least.
Ride comfort - still retained in the last 8 years. Have not changed the absorbers.
Brake pads - front changed 3x. Rear 4x. - rear brake pump 1x.
Rectifier for battery changed 2x.
Battery 5x.

I am looking for something better than this bike. Any suggestions. Thanks... smile_cool.gif

Morning Everyone

I ended up buying a Modenas 150cc, 2009 model in a hurry smile_cry.gif . It has done 90000KM, I wanted to know where can I do a full service of my bike.
I havenā€™t been able to locate a service centre like the way you have for cars. I work in PJ and live near Hartamasā€¦..
Also, like a few suggestions on what should I consider changing since the bike has been driven so much.

Suggestions on

1. A Good Mechanic would be highly appreciated
2. Place to Check and Charge my Scooter battery (Around PJ Hilton or Hartamas)
3. Things you suggest should be checked or change once a bike hit 90000KM


Cheers
Brat

My bike is about your bike's age but it's conditions is really bad.
What do major service usually do? Really want to get the performance back
