  • I dont know whether whether i m lucky in this case or not. As when i went for my first service my first question was related to oil only. I guess the SC guy which was delegated to me was of sound tech knowledge, when i asked which Engine Oil they are going to use he politely said the recommended 20w50 oil will be used then i asked of which brand he said Valvoline 4T i was more releived at that time.. but listening you guys exp. i m having a doubt over them, as one can not judge which oil they are using.. (eventhough he guarantee for good oil) .. however bike is running fine as i have added engine & petrol additive oil . it has increased some mileage but not sure how much (poured petrol for 500bucks on 14thJan) & enhanced performance at 3-4 gear... what say. shall i trust my SC guys....

    • Trusting SC guys is Big question.. On first service of my bike even i had the same question with the attendent...
      First he said they will be using company Oil .. then i asked which company is it.. and wht is the charateristics of the Oil... He said it veedol ... but didit tel me whether they r using 20W40 or 15W50... I have trusted 'em with tht... He said the oil will be in copper colourd.. But i see my bikes oil as dark black colored..

      My Bike has done 960KM ... As i take for office daily.. But i m feelin vibes on my bike ...those vibes were reduced for few kms after first service.. done at 540KM.. but they seems to be appearing again...

      After controlin lot today i took my bike to 70 km/h ... as i cudnt see a passion and activa leavin me behind... runnin in period is so damn difficult

                        The oil is "synthetic", and the price is 275 for one litre can. In small ride it will be difficult to tell the bike performance so wait for some 50-100kms to be completed, right now i too had not ridden the bike after oil change becuz i changed the oil by myself at home.
