    Query Approved

    You need to give much more info about your bike, before you can get any help. Starting with which bike are you riding?
    Biking is not about what you have between your legs, its all about how well you use it!!!!!!!

      This one is definitely an Yamaha engine. the YMI emboss clearly depicts. Is this a Yamaha SZ? How come within 9K the shaft is broke? A shaft should not cost more than 2k I guess but please do let us know of how much they quote? Sprockets are not covered under warranty, but axle should be, but I am really not sure. Find from a reputed SVC, because you have just covered 3 service center

      There are no short-cuts to any place worth going. So ride safe when you are treading uncharted roads.

        i think normally this should be covered in warranty, but i think warranty is non-transferable. kindly read you user manual, all warranty terms and conditions are mentioned in it.

        btw, your sprocket is way more worn out than a 10,000 kms bike.

        kindly introduce yourself in relevant thread.

          Need more information brother on the bike.

          Maybe there was too much load or the bike was not handled properly or you did not pay proper attention to it. I am sure the axle gave in gradually and this would not happen instantly. Talk to the supervisor to whom you'v been consulting on this for the past 3 services. Consolidate all the previous receipts of servicing. If they refuse to budge take it to the next level.

          Getting angry at somebody is the same as getting angry with a bike that just won't go. You should stop and start thinking.
