If the part as "N" on it, that means it is the new one!!

I think the TAK-TAK sound is there for all bikes, but I haven't seen any liquid coming out of mine!!

BTW:

Yesterday, I found out the lock of my seat doesn't lock. The Orion guys told me, they will need to open up the bike a bit as the cable from the key hole is not engaging the lock properly.
I am reluctant to get that fixed by Orion guys (a lot of bad reviews in the r15 thread). Can someone suggest a better ASC in bangalore where I can take my bike.

try perfect riders from JC road my frnd is pretty happy about them

n 1 more thing is in my consideration is, it should b able not only to save legs but the fuel tank as well,

Got my 1st service done today. Yamaha service people are idiots. I lost my temper for they are arrogant; they just took my keys, filled the service book and left me to myself. I told the mech abt the clutch prob and a few issues with the suspension, he said he will look in to them.
I returned in the evening 1hr past the delivery time they gave- they just changed the engine oil. Nothing else. Water servicing is NOT available, didnt even clean the bike with a cloth. Battery check not done- no instrument. Clutch is not fixed. And the service supervisor told me that is all they can do for now, end of 1st servicing. Take your bike home. I even doubt if they changed the engine oil.
I was mad.
I refused to take delivery and warned them about complaining to higher people. These arrogant idiots didnt even respond! I left the bike there and returned, fuming.

I had a call 2 hrs later from them - asked me to come and take delivery. This time they fixed everything. Cleaned the bike with some cloth(? oil/wax). I took a test ride and it was okay.

Changes I found-
1. The engine sound is more deep. Its a feeling...
2. Now I agree that the gear shift is butter smooth! They are perfect now, previously they were very hard.
3. Took the bike to 55kmph in 3rd gear for the 1st time and its poweerful pull! I love it! I dunno if its gonna harm... is it okay guys?
