          I got the old shocks itself heightened slightly, handling seems better but I'll know properly once I straighten my swingarm which is causing little Tyre wobble. It costed 350 bucks.

            I might take time to change it coz I first have to change the footsets so need to collect some cash. Better buy a new handlebar its about 300 bucks I guess.

              Just calculated the mileage that my bike is giving. Did a full tank to reserve calculation. Gave 706 kms when the fuel hit the reserve button. With 11.7 lts, that's a whopping 60.34kmpl! And all riding is within thick city traffic. Bike is in complete stock condition.

                  P.S-This is my first bike...and ~200 kms done.
                  Are you newbie for geared vehicle? you have to move forward-backward while trying to shift gear if engine is off. otherwise just hold clutch and self start then try gears.
                  No need to change oil at just 200km. you can tell service guy that you will change oil on 2nd service. I had covered 450km on first service yet service guy said no need to change oil now, it can be change on next service. I felt Honda oil was not good. so changed to veedol super swift after 800km that works much better.

                    Oil should be changed at any cost at 500km for a new bike even if the oil is ok. Honda oil is not good but its better to use it till running period is over in case something goes wrong also u can claim warranty, but u can't do that if u used another oil.

                      Hi guys,
                      How much km of running period is enough to cross 55km/h speed ? I have run about 800km so far.
                      when go beyond speed of 55, I get vibrations.

                        You can ride between 50~70 kmph at top gear. Make sure you don't keep constant at any particular speed.

                          Best to be within 55 till 2nd service is done

                          • As I had mentioned here I had sent an email.
                            Well I got a phone call not ones atleast 6 times from them. They are changing the block piston again. Oh! God I just hope this time I don't go through all this or I was thinking before anything goes wrong I might sell the bike.
                            Well yes its true after today when the bike is made exactly after a month or 2 I will sell her off and go for some other company but Honda.
                            Baap rai Baap. No more honda for me.

                              Tell them only if they think changing block piston will make the bike new again then buy it back nd sell it to someone else.

                                Friends I am dishartend badly and would like to share this with you I am selling my bike well for the reason of the bad quality which Honda is giving.
                                Today as on 20/06/2013 again they changed the cylinder kit but before the cylinder kit was being put here it is what you can see there quality
                                also I am attaching here with the photographs of the old cylinder kit well in the snap you can see there quality as on the walls of the kit u can see the markings also when i saw by holding the kit in my hand yes there was alot of play like the new one and it was making noise imagine when the bike becomes hot what sound u hear.

                                Please see for yourself. Shit quality yaar seriously I am fed up of letting the have fun with my bike I just wish our judicial system would have been good like Americas then we could have got a real good product in our hands.
                                Anyways all the best to all of you I am selling her.
