Lifestyle The Diary Game || May 9, 2025 || Taking a Motorcycle to a Service Center

service broken down motorbike

Today I had to face a little obstacle in my daily activities, namely my motorbike suddenly broke down in the middle of the trip. The motorbike is my main vehicle in my activities, so when it breaks down, it is certainly very annoying. At first I thought it was just a minor problem, like fruit or running out of gas, but after I tried to start it several times, it didn't work either. Finally I decided to take my motorbike to a service center located around the Teupin Punti intersection, a place that is quite well-known to residents because of its service and experienced technicians.

Upon arrival at the repair shop, the motorbike was immediately checked by a mechanic. After a thorough inspection, it turned out that the cause of the breakdown was quite complex. The clutch lining had to be replaced, and there was a problem with the electrical system, especially in the ignition section, which prevented the engine from starting normally. The mechanic explained the damages found one by one, and gave a detailed estimate of the service costs. I nodded in agreement because I could already feel the uncomfortable condition of the motorbike for the past few days.

The repair process took approximately two hours. While waiting, I sat on a plastic chair on the edge of the workshop and chatted briefly with the owner of the service center. We shared stories about motorbikes, experiences on long trips, and the development of their workshop which is increasingly crowded with customers. While enjoying the gentle afternoon breeze, I was grateful that there was still a nearby workshop that was ready to handle the problem quickly and proportionally.

After the repair was completed, the motorbike came back to life with a smoother engine sound. It felt satisfying and relieved to see the motorbike back in prime condition. The cost I had to pay was 350,000 IDR according to the replacement of the clutch lining, electrical repairs and service fees.

finally ready and can continue the journey

Although it costs quite a lot of money, I feel this is an important step for the sake of driving comfort and safety. Hopefully after this, the motorbike can be used again for daily activities without any problems. Today's experience is also a reminder that routine maintenance is important so that there is no sudden damage in the middle of the road.
