how can u be sure that watever the mechanic said he will change was actually changed? they might tell u they change this change that and charge you a whole lot of money but actually they didn do anything if it looks like it could still be used and still charge you money for it bcos u can't tell anyway. for example the oil seals, con-rod bearings.Originally posted by tHoMiE:at last my bike is back from the lonely overhual trip~!~!~~~~ spent abt 800 dollars changing pistons rings, swingarm bushing, skimming block, carbon reeds, decobonising pipes, new muffers/stingers, new plugs,con-rod,some super ex bearings near con-rod,new kick starter,new piston pins/bearings, new coolant water, new enjine oil,all oil seals,most gaskets,hahahaahaha finally for the 1st time in my life i have to run in my bike. 0_o sianzzzzz

kinda depends on the shop you go to la.. perhaps thomie goes his trusted mech? plus usually, you can keep tabs on the mech/shop by visiting them often, where you can actually watch them do up your bike... i make it a point to stay around or be there when action on my bike is taken... 
how's the blade? -
Do you think i go to any shops or trust any mechcanic.... Firstly the shop is new and is getting better because of the good service and workmanship. So i am not going to reveal the name of the shop. I have been to all the 6 bike shops in that part of JB.
I was suppose to go there to change my barrels but then the con rod is shaking from left to right and the bike as per normal is enjine louder then pipe. After the waiting ... both at home and the 12 hours waiting at the shop from 4 pm to abt 4 am .. i can be sure that certain amount of quality is present. After the job is done he and 2 mechanic has tested the bike. Which met up to their and my super low standard. Now the enjine does not have a knocking sound and is shaking so much lesser. oil seal wise.... i will know if the oil seal last for the reasonble period of usage. Last but not least he also showed me the bearings he taken out and he did buy from the Yamaha suppileir in town, whom i know personally.
Back to killing the mosqitos!~!~~~~~~~ but now i use premix also lesser smoke. -
