Its not about the police check, its for education; just want to know what's written on RC.

And what short of problems u'r facing so far so that i could be more careful thanks
I get my chain lubed at the ASC every 500-1000kms/ chain slackness adjustment etc.
And i always redline my bike everytime.
Im guessing Chain+sprocket will last atleast 10k kms for me but if sanely driven below 8k rpm, it would last you a bit longer say 15-16k kms.
Just to be on the safe side, order anything you need from spares Well in advance. For eg, if you are going in for a service/oil change, grab the filter atleast 2 weeks in advance. That way you dont have to wait.
Same for the chain or other parts which will need to be replaced due to wear and tear.

2. Pant(M, L, XL, from 8 - 8.5k)
3. Gloves(M, L, XL, from 2.5 - 3k)

I likes it !!!!!!!!!

I would go for an official CBR jacket if not the pant and the gloves. BTW, did you inquire if the jackets were mesh. Woul;d help in summers.

1000 is less, atleast that's what my experience taught me. Do lube generously for once in 1500-2000 Kms (HMSI recommends every 800 Kms with their stupid lube, while I use Motul). Slackness, I agree, every 2K kms (suggested by HMSI), as for me, I check every 500 Kms & adjust on need basis, so I'm not sure on the interval.

I really doubt on this; anyway, I don't disregard completely though.

You can redline, but how fast you get there is important. If you think the road is a race track, then for every race you'll need to keep changing the spared. While redlining always is not recommended, once in a while, its does good.

Last but not the least, don't go with what ASC lubes, spend sometime & lube yourself; but Motul or equivalent good products from the market. Though they cost you a lot, but very economical in the long run.
