Service is quite ok, but doesnt have anything special to mention. there is one fat old guy, whose bahavior is hard to predict, in first service he was nice with me, next service he was kind of rude.
So, try your luck there.

^^^ Teflon coating is one of the biggest scams that dealers pull off. In fact it may actually be harmful if they are using the wrong stuff (it won't be Teflon, that you can be sure of). F1 carnuba paste wax is also not the right thing to use on a new bike as it is mildly abrasive. Amongst the stuff available in India, try Turtle hard shell wax, 3M liquid wax or even the Waxpol's Super Quality Polish (which is said to last very long).

the only advantage of getting the polish it done by those guys is that they polish it with a rotor brush that polishes the surface very well. You cannot acheive that shine with your hand.

3M bottle is 80 bux (MRP). Turtle MRP is approx 250, but I got it for lesser. Waxpol tin should be quite cheaper than both.

Hi All,

I gave my bike for service last week @ Aryan SC.
During service SC guys agreeed on replacing hangle bar and front shock absorber. They told that parts will be available within 2 days and will give a call then.

Not receiving call even after a week time, I contacted them today.
Still they singing the same song

They agreed to replace parts of other bike, if they don't get them from dealer. Is that ok? Does it really take too much time?
