    It has served me for about 5.4k kms ... months = since may last year ... didn't need to do any top ups as such ... even now the oil comes up to the same level in the botle as the new oil came with ... just that it was burnt out .

      Holy moly....last may....wow....its been a loooong time for the oil to see the outer world.....
      And it shows how gud it is...that it lasted these many days....
      coz even if it is less used the oil degrades due to external environmental factors.....

      Shame that i am not able to find it in our city.....but i m happy with the motul i found
      cheers....

      • Lock issue

        Hey guys.. I have some serious issue with my lock. 2 days back i got my bike back from 6th free service. After driving home, the handle bar lock got jammed and it never got released. But I was able to turn on the ignition alone. This happened to me already. Just a knock at a particular point will fix this. So i brought a mechanic who did that and fixed it immediately. After 2 mins it got jammed again. so the local mechanic suggested to change the whole lock set as it will be risk to drive at high speeds when it gets jammed... so he removed the lock, only the lock, a small thing which moves to and fro inside a hole to get locked.

        So as of now, i wont be able to do the side lock and got to get this fixed soon. Can anyone tell me how much this will cost? the whole Lock set. So the key will also be changed right? and hence the petrol tank key and seat key.

        EDIT: I just spoke to SVC. they said they ll check and tell.. if there is a need to change, it will cost 900.. to change the whole lock set, petrol tank lock and the seat lock...

          No dont buy anything thats not required. Just go directly to the SVC. Ask them to change your settings. Also make get the high beam adjusted a bit low. Because since both our bulbs are single filament when you switch on both the headlights one beam stays high and one low.

          To avoid this make sure you get your high beam adjusted. I am sure you will not be driving on high beam anyways. Dont take it to a roadside mechanic. The SVC will do this mod for just 50 Rs.

                  Just make sure that you expose your engine to various RPM levels in each gear. Do not ride above 4.5K RPM for a long time during your run-in period.

                      • Hi all,

                        My Bike is just new, I've drove 80 KM's till now.

                        I noticed the following,
                        1. Engine is becoming over heat and I can smell Hot kind, Is it normal or some problem ?
                        2. I occasionally over rev upto 6K RPM but it wont last for more than 2-3 seconds.
                        3. I travel between 4K-5K RPM for some minute and i switch it.

                        whether following is ok ???

                                don't worry. the bike acts all crazy in its first few days. if the problem persists after few more days visit the SVC
                                4k rpm is what the manuals says
