[Spearfish]

you service your every 1000k's?

[actionjackson]

Yes I do, that's what is said to do I acordance with the manual that came with the bike and what the guy who sold it to me said, why is this to often, ( just to let you know it's a Chinese made scooter)

[The Baron]

Most motorcycles are serviced every 6000km some at 10000 and some of the new ones at every 15000.
I would look at every 3000 to 6000 for your scoot.

The owners manual says every 1000km...

Dont know if this is a question or if you are just stating but yes my manual says 1000km

[DangerMice]

every 1000kms? Jeez, I'd be servicing once a month at that rate. My Jog is every 6000km.

Man, that sounds expensive at 1K intervals... What do they do for your $67? Bring it round to my garage and I will do it for $50!

You know it might be a bad Chinglish translation, they may have missed out a zero... :doh:

Oil change, clean and check spark plug, clean and check carburetor, check tire pressure, check and replace gear oil, check drive belt, adjust or replace if necessary. Check brake performance. Check
and set valve clearances. Check all light bulbs, adjust or replace if necessary.

something along those lines i believe, Dont think all of that is done every week but thats what the receipts i have so far have written on them.

Where is your garage??

The true cost of Chinese scoot ownership.....$67 a time...
Are you sure its not first 500k's then at 1 thou then 3 to 5 thousand after that?

Yes that is the true cost but driving my car to work each day cost me around $60 a week so it is heaps cheaper and that was the purpose of buying it . I only do around 30km in 4 times a week so take a while to do 1000km

Na mate am sure it is every 1000km but sure I could stretch it out (although that could be tempting fate)

As long as its doing the job and your enjoying it.

[DangerMice]

I guess $67 for that is ok, assuming it includes the oil etc and you take ages to do 1000km. My first 500km service which was much the same cost $110 at what was then Henderson Yamaha.

Did you mean you do 30km a week, or 30km 4 times a week?

What size scoot is it and what particular brand is it, my chinese scoot was the 1000k check, 4000 and then a 6000 check I believe.
