  Pass my 2B ages ago (ah-pek already) and been using the public transport but now intend to look seriously for an affordable simple scooter.
  
  budget around $3000. Not thrill with speed or gaget, as long can take me from point A to B without breaking down should suffice. Any recommendation?

  I would recommend that too. Huge underseat space, automatic transmission, comfortable etc. Altho its probably one of the heaviest 2b class bike (just need a time to get use to) and maintainence would be slightly on the expensive side.

  Do you have 2A too? If you do, you may want to try some of the 250cc scooters as they are quite cheap and reliable. Anyway, lots of information here: http://www.singaporebikes.com/forum/index.php?showforum=31

  Please note that mine is 180cc and it has 2 shock absorbers behind instead of one as featured in above picture. It is auto transmission. Runs same engine as X9 Piaggio. Comes with digital and analogue meters as standard.

  Buy the cheapest oldest most broken down bike in singapore, ride to JB and buy a spanking new bike at 50% discount from what you will pay in sgp, change the number plates and drive back.
  
  Don't forget to scrape the old bike properly in JB.
  
  and oh, don't get caught.

  How about a Piaggio auto-scooter? http://auctions.yahoo.com/sg/i:FM%20Plate%20Piaggio:101928422
