    • Will contact Orion tomorrow. By the way I checked the mileage of my bike, it was 35.56 kms/ltr, but I did rip her a couple of times, it's run only about 380 kms. One more thing, have any of you guys noticed that the front no. plate gets bent in the parking lot. What I mean to say is that they are parked so close to each other that the no. plate tends to get bent. So, I got it removed & got the regn. no. stickered on the black piece above the light & also got stopped by a MAMU just yesterday, luckily it was just outside my office & I knew the cops, so no FINE. I'''m looking for some alternative now.

      CHEERS,

          • I went to Orion, they checked my bike and told the part had been replaced already.

            The part is the one which connects the centre of rear wheel and the rear brake road. (sorry don't know what it is called)

            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.

              • TAK-TAK noise is the metal cooling down, its common on all the bikes.
