Aljunied Motor works

A solid neighbourhood workshop for commuter and mid-capacity riders who want honest scoping and fair pricing on servicing, brakes, tyres and CVT work. Less convincing as a used-bike source. If you are buying a second-hand bike here, get an independent pre-purchase inspection before you pay, and pin every warranty term in writing.

The lowdown. Small motorcycle workshop and used-bike dealer tucked into LHK Building on Sims Drive, a quiet corner of Geylang with ample parking. Day to day it is routine servicing, oil and CVT work, brake fixes, tyre changes, the occasional engine overhaul, plus a sideline in used bikes via their Carousell page. Jimmy is the face out front and does most of the customer-facing work.

What riders say. The pull here is Jimmy. He walks you through what needs doing, what can wait, and what it will cost before anything is touched. Beginners get the patient version of the explanation. Pricing on routine service and oils sits on the affordable end, and Motul and PTT are stocked at fair shelf prices.

Transparent about the costs involved and also explained to me the options available.

Turnaround is quick for bread-and-butter jobs. A simple brake-light fix is treated with the same care as a full overhaul dropped off and collected the next evening. The friction is on the used-bike side. One buyer of an older CBR150 found bent front forks and a near-empty crankcase after collection, and felt the one-month warranty was not honoured. Treat the workshop and the used-bike sales as two separate decisions.

• Walk-in is fine for routine service. Call ahead for bigger jobs.
• Motul and PTT engine oils stocked at reasonable prices.
• Used bikes are listed on their Carousell page, not in-store only.
• Ample parking inside the LHK Building compound.
