  • Got this Polish for Stryker today

    Waxpol Premium Ultra Glo polish (pic attached)

    Got it for Rs 90 for 100 gms. Its a solid paste, hoping it will bring shine to black color of the bike. I am refraining from imported brands for sometime, as i remember polishing my Dio couple of years back with this polish and it use to shine like hell. Also, imported polishes are costly, Saturday or Sunday will apply it and report back on Monday here on the thread.

    Tip-
    1) Its hard paste so its a time consuming affair, do it only if you have like half day free or something.
    2) It penetrates deep so you actually need to wait till it dries off completely on the surface of the panel.
    3) MF cloth is advised for wiping off the hard polish.

      Any answer to my query?

            I am less knowledgeable about the mechanical part of it - but the ECU and the fuel injector are programed to deliver more fuel and kick at those RPM bands.

                Hey there congrats on your decision to go for the V2

                1)Monarch Auto - Tilak Road, i know this is bit far but trust me buddy they have good dealer and after sales service. You wont be disappointed in the long run.
                2)Same Monarch auto, if you go back couple of posts you will find that YFS charges too many taxes so the service cost increases by around Rs300-500 only for taxes. Also, the service out there is not reliable. In Monarch there are customers coming from PCMC area, its far but worth the cost. And the service out there is quite decent, the thing is they are into automobiles from years now. I'm not a paid marketing professional of Monarch but I'm assuming that you are either a college going grad or a working employee who needs to manage his funds properly.
                3)Dont know the price change, one suggestion go for regular colors. Cost and availability of LE parts takes time and is slightly overpriced above regular ones.

                Hope this helps, I'm from Pune too... Do come for g2g's on every wednesday. Keep looking at Pune thread for latest meets and rides.
