  • Hey guys,
    I ride a Red ZMR. So far too good. Done 1000 Kms. 1st servicing done. I had told the service station guys to tight clutch and front brakes a bit. They forgot to do what i said. I noticed it later. So if i tighten the clutch and front brakes by myself will warranty void? And I'm experiencing medium vibrations @ 6000+ RPM @ fairing, is this normal.

        Guys Be careful get ur bike checked properly before going on long rides....
        Came to know about your bike from Riaz. Now good to know its ready too

        But scared now to go on long rides

        BTW how was ur experience in the NIKHI motors wrt the way they handle the bike ?

        Its a ball bearing set under u r handle for free movement of handle and vibs of fork. Basically if this is gone ull feel the handle tight or fork moves or get noise like tak tak when u go over pot hole etc.

          What actually did they replace, and what was its cost ?
          From variable Bhps to a constant 17.6 Bhp.

            I guess it was done in warranty. Probably the fuel pump failure.

            • @all: My Machine Update: 4700 done so far no big issues. Mileage 40kmpl (+/-2), little bit of vibrations experienced after 2nd service, will get it fixed in the 3rd service may be some loose bolt.... every thing else just fabulous!

              @sathyajit: hey there, are the vibrations too serious or just a hint of them?
              All the wise men of the world are called wise only after they spoke their mind, so dont keep the ideas to yourselves!

              • @fast_ferocious : As i said they replaced the fuel pump,the filter kind of thing inside the faring near the gear lever....Yes the changed it free of cost under warranty but the guy was telling it costs 10000/-...I think maintaining the bike after 3yrs warranty is going to be at tough job...

                And the service people a Nikki Motors have a good knowledge about the bike this is what i noticed and they handle the bike little roughly but if ur infront of them and u bring it ti service manager notice it'll be handled nicely...Contact the Supervisor Pranav or Muniswamy....
