      Dude...forget the lamination part, did you get your finance approved to buy a CBR? What's happening on that front? I'm still hoping to see your post here, but, from your posts, looks like you're still in confusion. Waiting for some other launches?

        Yes can be done easily. This is not the first time I have done this but complete tank is first time.
        There are several lamination tapes available in the market.
        Quality can be judged by thickness, clearness and gum on tape.
        This one is 2nd best didn't get 1st in yamunanagar.
        And there are tapes which cannot be removed without blades and scratching like radium tapes. ALWAYS avoid RADIUM tapes on PAINTED surfaces they cannot be removed without leaving marks.

            To Amandeep,

            how to test the quality of the tape?
            I got my tank sides laminated 8 months back and was thinking of getting the whole tank done.

            Thanks and Regards

              If i replace to stock exhaust when ever i go to SVC, will my warranty expire in that case??

              Lamination color turns yellowish after some time also scratches makes lamination to loose its glossy shine. Whenever any of the above happens its time to relaminate, In my case i purchased 19" x 24" lamination paper from mobile lamination store for 100 Rs and Labor charges was 150.

                      I could not find Cost and warranty related issues.
                      Also can i trick SVC by changing exhaust before going for service??

                        What warranty saar? Its implied that when you go in for such mods, the warranty will be void automatically; cost you can always check with PRS & Bahchoo Mumbai, who're authorized dealers.

                        Yes you can, but remember, Honda engineers are no dumb guys either!!! If they know to engineer, they also know how to reverse engineer

                              Buy a Waxpol Vinyl Leather and Dashboard polish. Apply a decent amount on the black panels and give it a good scrub. That will restore the original black color.
                              I faced the same issue and luckily found an old bottle of the same. The panels look immaculate now.

                                VINYL LEATHER POLISH AND DASHBOARD POLISH
                                I have seen panels turning grayish after repeated application of dash board polish on my activa

                                also polish gets accumulated in rough surface of panels and turns white which make panels look even worse.
                                I am also looking for some stuff to make panels look new
