Dude remember me??..satish from Vellore..how are you doing??..I was working in Bangalore and Coimbatore for 2 years and am back in Vellore now..are you still in Kanchee??..

Ogaey.....

Man!!! U sent me the message a little late!!! I gave my car to service only y'day after 2 long months of waiting!!! It could've been very useful had you sent the message atleast y'day morning!!!

No. I have not received any from him.

At office now. Just remind me tomorrow through PM. I maintain the spreadsheet at home.

If you ask me, you needn't worry about the grade - Jeeva will guide you - merely choose your preferred brand. Everyone has their own preference and you through experimentation will discover yours too. Mineral oil is suggested as the lube of choice in bikes during their run in period and you can switch to semi-synth after second service. Full synth is normally recommended if you're going to be thrashing your bike on the track - otherwise semisynth is more than enough.

To be honest, I don't remember the grade - its mentioned in the manual. I know that my bike came with Castrol brand and in the first service, Jeeva (the PBK mechanic who will handle your bike) put in Castrol again. I know because I always wait and watch the entire service. the bike was perfectly smooth and at about 4K I changed my oil and filter in a "mini-service". Not required but I was doing a few long rides and wanted a clean and smooth revving engine. In this unscheduled interim service, Jeeva poured in Bajaj lube, which he said was also authorised. However, I and a few others who used it felt the engine was harsher with this oil, so I changed back to Castrol again during the 2nd service at 6K. The bike immediately felt smoother.

Hi Ram! Congrations on getting yourself the Mean Green Machine

You can also take a look at the Cramster Bionic Guards. They're worth every penny and more. Find it on cramster.in.

DSG, my best bet.
