I liked that the guy was honest about the belt and was like, "No, you can go another 2000 km." They realize there is no reason to rip off good customers. When you can trust people, it's nice to relax and let skilled people do what they do.
Your bike maintenance is very important chubz, good to keep on top of it, it’s a loyal little bike with plenty of miles yet, if it’s up together,your far safer riding it, it’s all the other stuff around you,, 👍
One of the last things you think about bike maintenance so a good reminder. Also good to see that they they did not upsell the belt and was good for the next service so kudos for this. And your dream bike is?
cleanliness is next to Godliness when it comes to vehicle maintenance. I would pay double (if necessary) to have that scooter serviced at the stealership...
I'm wondering if paying double would even be enough? Nah, I just use the "local" shops, I see no point in me paying for the nice shiny showroom beside the service department.
dealerships usually require appointments and i dont find them necessary here when small shops are just as professional and most likely quicker friendly and if you want to monitor they have nothing to hide
They know there bikes for sure… they do there work well, and most are very honest, not like car dealerships, where they take your car parts and replace them with used parts or cheaper parts…
😵 that’s crazy but i could see that happening Motorbike shops are a dime a dozen and will compete for devoted customers.. find the right place and youll always receive top notch honest service
Haven't seen that in Angeles, although many may stay open until perhaps 9 or 10pm, Mr. JJ's IS open 24 hours 363 days per year, however as yet they DON'T service bikes!!!!
Every time my mind is blown with the prices of bike maintenance in the Philippines. How much would that have cost here? My son is going to Bohol for 3 months starting February. He was hoping to rent a bike but he doesn’t have a motorcycle endorsement. We’ll have to see how that turns out 💵💰
i was surprised how low the cost was for the servicing i recd 😃 that same service would be about $200 in the US Some motorbike rental places will look beyond the endorsement, and of course money speaks
If you ever want to look for another shop, I highly recommend Patiu's garage on McArthur Hwy. Doc Patiu is one of the most trustworthy mechanics I've come across. They all ride N-Max's or Aerox's and they specialize in the yamaha scooter repair and maintenance. In the States, I have one mechanic I trust and I do most of my own bike work at home. I'm so lucky that Doc was recommend to me here. He has proven to be trustworthy and expert at working on my aerox!
Chubs, Would be great if you could answer my question re the Scorebirds bikini contest in that video’s comment section. Or maybe you could do a “How it works” talk-only video? Thanks! 🙏
some comments dont make it through 🤔 bead totals determine the winner, some girls have supporters that will spend a lot to insure a girls win; the girls get no money from beads only drinks and winnings if they place in the top 3

👍 some day a larger CC touring bike would be nice.. not sure of the brand, research and test rides will determine
Good job...did you mention the total service cost...yes you did...40 bucks ...that was worth it

One day I might rent or buy an ass-rocket lol. Thanks Chad.
there ya go 😃 best way to get around 👍
I saw in Thailand that bike repair shops open all night long. Is it same there?
Haven't seen that in Angeles, although many may stay open until perhaps 9 or 10pm, Mr. JJ's IS open 24 hours 363 days per year, however as yet they DON'T service bikes!!!!
i dont think theyre open 24 around here
