                Every manufacturer have their own stories to share, not just HMSI. Some could be even worst.

                  Well If you are comfortable with the riding position of the bike, then why not? It takes time getting used to, especially in the stop & go traffic. Apart from that possibly if you have a good Secured parking space wherever you take your bike then definately you can.

                  Same here harsh. Venetian never had any accessory & as per to my knowledge they still dont have any. I bought the same black cover which is to real good quality.

                    The best(worst) part was when i left the showroom and just about 200 mtrs away the fuel got over and i was like wtf. They got a serious huge thrashing from my dad. Then they come on a twister and fill about 1L of petrol.

                      Jetblack, are you talking about a local dealer(broker) here? (if borivali, then i guess the one next to korakendra flyover?? He's the biggest) If yes, please do confirm about the warranty. Consult an ASC and ask them if everything is fine. I had seen a bike which was bought from a broker (ABS for Rs.2.4lakhs) in the early days and had lot of problems. The ASC manager told me that some parts of the bike had been replaced or played with. Plus he told me that Honda does not provide warranty for any honda vehicle bought from other than honda showroom. Some money saved may cost much later. I dont mean to scare you or anything but thats what i saw and had told the same to everyone in the CBR launch thread too.

                      ? Got over? Like, what exactly happened? This is the first time i am hearing of fuel empty on CBR.. So want to know what happened and how it behaved. Light blinking? fuel pump noise? Bike stalling? Or fuel injector burn?

                          When i took the bike the last line of fuel was already blinking. I asked the dealer about it and he told me that he had just filled 1L of fuel. He was reluctant to fill it up a bit more. Checked everything. and after leaving the showroom, just few meters away the bike started lugging. I thought it might be because of low rpm on a higher gear or so. (was driving the bike 1st time). If this was happening on my previous bike i would have known that the fuel is over. And after some time the bike stalled. I took it to the side and cranked it up, it started but then stalled again. Behaved like a normal carb bike when fuel gets over. I dont think if anything got damaged(fuel injector), i hope so.

                          me too from mira road

                            • Hi

                              Hi guys,
                              I'm new to this forum. After going through a few threads here, i'm excited to be a part of this community.
                              I've got my CBR in last august. Till now aorund 2800 kms done. Recently I've done a Mangalore-Kottayam-Mangalore which covered around 1000 kms. After this ride, i'm getting a strange rattling sound post 6k rpm.
                              Any idea how this can happen??

                              Also does anyone know where i can get motul chain lube in mangalore?
