    Yes it is new Repsol, ha ha those two numbers are New owner oriented. Choose the number you want, then they will stick that no and give it to you.

    I booked the 2017 Repsol edition with ABS.
    They told me to wait 60day..


    Also they did not say anything out the numbers.. :\


    I think i need to visit the dealers once again..




    Did they say that they will stick the number as per user prefference?

      But instead, I was also considering to buy RE 500, either TB or Bullet. Can you guys please explain what all issues you had faced with your RE's?

      and Im also considering CBR, Dominar, FZ250 & but not mojo because Mahindra have spares/service support only in metro cities.

      Thanks!

        I seriously need to change the indicators. Slight touch and they will break off. Why cant Honda provide flexible types. Will be getting leds for rear and flush mount for front soon.

        Can someone send me toolkit picture? Looks like I have not got something

            Just 10k kms is waste of a Honda. Keep it as your temporary commuter, incase the d390 is a lemon.

                I meant if there are any problems with the Duke which would need some days in the SVC to repair. Lemon is the term used to describe a bike that's screwed from the factory itself, that has some manufacturing defects that render it useless for "quiet enjoyment" of the product.

                  I know right. I am scared of lemons.
                  Anyway, If I intend to sell the ceeber, how much should it fetch? I am estimating 90k.

                      Given that it's only 10k kms, you can start with 1 lakh assuming it's a STD model.

                      Do you have service records since purchase?

                        About the indicators, Honda should have developed integrated indicators on the outer edge of the headlight dome. Plenty of space there. Instead they rummaged in the parts bin and came up with the Stunners indicators. Adding insult, they charge ₹120 something more for the same indicators!

                          I would strongly suggest against selling the bike, firstly the resale value is not so good for the CBR's demand is not high enough. Then the cbr is such a no nonsense, reliable bike, it's always good to have it around.
                          Unless of course finances do not allow to have both, then sell the cbr.
                          Cheers

                            I have Duke indicators fixed on the rear, it could be done but needs some juggad.

                            KTM indicators are plastic sheathed pluggable type connector's, where as the CBR has metal pin inserts. I have posted a pic of the Duke indicators a few pages before asking for suggestions on how to connect.

                            Oh and they cost 600 rupees a side.

                                If its minor scratches or just swirls and all, then waxing is a very easy way to maintain the bike spotless.
