    Am not scaring him mate ... i am just alerting him

      Oh!!! That's HSRP; is it enforced in AP? Certainly not in TN which should get implemented along with RTO (if at all its done )

      Anyway, I guess we've gone too much away on OT & better to stop now before xPolice deletes the posts

      • Did a long ride yesterday. Some 200+ kms. This lil blade is just perfect for highways and long rides. It ws handling the highways pretty well and also during crosswinds. The sound it makes at 70+ kmph is pretty good. I like it more and mroe day by day.. Specially when you duck under the punny windscreen and twist the throttle... Got over 32 kmpl for sure. ( I was doing an avg of 80 kmph )

        OT : Yes I meant HSRP. It's not enforced in AP yet. All I meant to say is that It's a waste to spend 500 bucks for just embossed number plates. Just my opinion.

          Good to know your machine did well.
          About HSRP, it is not just an embossed number plate.
          I think these number plates can be read electronically.
          They as well have a hologram on it.

          It often takes a humiliating overtake to understand that an early jump off the red light won't help them lead the pact. All I want to say is - Go after green.

                  • Well, I hit ~143 on the 5th gear at 11k and the ECU limiter kicked in. Hence the rpm fell and the speed dropped

                        As far as i know and out of my experience most of the service centres accept the free service coupon even it is a week late. You can right away call your prospective service station and inform this in prior that you will be late, they will certainly accept that.

                          • Well I went there and ordered one! But sadly it seems the hole to fit it in will directly come right on that hologram!

                            Yup thats the one !
                            and they dont do the sticking BUT you can still try in G.P road ( as far as i am concerened G.P.Road is for cars and Pudhupettai is for bike's ) I wouldnt recommend you to go to pudhupettai ( would say very very very dangerous place )
                            IND and the Hologram are embossed on the plate btw! Not Stickering it seems! I touched and felt it today!

                            And no Pudupettai my dear brothers! Went there once with my friend and never going again! Saami enakku sticker'e venam!

I've personally seen the local ones (Rs 400 etc) rusted after a while. But Utsav's are pretty easy (actually damn easy) to clean & DOES NOT accumulate dust. My Rx's plates are pristine clean even after 10 months & are perfectly clean. Even the tar spots seem to fail on Utsav.

                              • Few things i thought,i should share with the CBR owners. This is what i did the 2nd day of the bike.

                                1. Wash and Dry (Used only Optimum No rinse No wash as it was not much dirty)
                                2. Tried using Swirlx on couple of scratches created by the Pujari who did the puja to my bike, could not remove it. I believe its because of the lacquering on the paint(No sure, just assuming).
                                3. Tested Meg Tech wax and Collinite (As most of the parts in CBR is fiber less of metal)
                                4. Masked the black fiber/plastic joins (Very important when applying Tech wax)
                                5. Applied 303 Aerospace/Meg Ultimate Protectant on all the black fiber/plastic area
                                6. Treated the bike with Meg tech Wax and then after 4 hrs with Collinite. Generally we need to wait atleast 12 hrs after Tech wax but due to cloudy weather, decided to do it after 4 hrs.
                                7. Applied Tire gel.

                                And guess what, evening it rained and the water beeding was excellent.

                                Few pics.
