    Labor charges will be different for different activities. The 225 which they charge are for basic maintenance such as oil/oil filter change, washing, air filter cleaning etc. If you planning to replace anything or asked the SVC to modify anything then they are gonna charge you as per their charging list. When you go to SVC ask them for the Labor charges list. Every SVC has one.
    Here also they charge 225 for paid service charge, but in the above mentioned list he listed fork overhaul charge 450 separately, so this 495 should be paid service charge, believe. Pleas enlighten me. Because I get everything separately listed in my bill.

                I should say its better having a local bike mechanic who you know very well and who won't cheat you. I have been giving my bike for yrs to the same guy and if some thing need's to be changed on the bike he will call me 1st and ask before doing any thing on the bike.

                  Yes I agree , the problem is the "family" mech shut shop and shifted ... the guys around are not reliable enough ... they seem clueless when I tell them about some problem with the bike ... the SVC experience has been good thus far ...

                    The service advisor at Muthoot Yamaha also calls up before changing anything faulty

                      yeah they do that here too ...

                      P.S : he showed me today that my rear tyre was leaking air from two puncture's which were fixed , so he said this process would jus keep repeating , fill air once a week and ride till it's time to change the tyre . i lose about 6 psi per week ...

                        Anything special i should get done? Like a particular oil to put in, lubrications, settings etc? Cause after my sixth service, my next paid service would only be after 3k (instead of after 3 months) as my running is low. My total kms so far is around 7.6k
