    There are plenty of varieties in Wax polish.
    You can go for Motomax or Formula-1 wax polish. They are available for both Metal and Dasboard polish.

    For Lube, Motul is the best bet.
    Thanks!
    Just one doubt .. No waxing on plastic parts right?
    The equation is simple mate,If you can't REDLINE ​it you don't deserve it.

      whats your ODO reading? did you change the spark plug from the one that was there when you took the bike? did you change air filter anytime before?

      check the idle rpm, it should be around 1.4k rpm in these weathers, mine is 1.3k. and does this happen in first gear when you leave the clutch and try to accelerate? leaving the clutch too much before accelerating even little can cause that problem, happened to me too.
      My idling is set at 1250 rpm... it ll b little high when I start the bike but then reduces to 1250 after engine is hot which I think is normal.. regarding clutch release I dont release it early, spark plug n air filter changed at 10k odo reading... now I hv conpleted 14,500 kms on odo... . Oh ya, how did I miss posting this question in YRC, will do tht n see what Dempsy has to say :thumbup:

        Also what is the grade of the engine oil you are using ?

        My idling is set to normal, I mean its little high when I start the engine, but after the engine is hot it ll b around 1250 rpm... I use Yamalube semi synthetic engine oil, regarding the exact grade I have to chk.. and yes I completed 14,500 kms on odo n did change spark plug n airfilter at 10k service

I hope its nothing to do with fuel injection...

          Right Vivek, its a spark plug issue. If i'm not wrong once the engine turns off you need to crank it a couple of times to get it started. right? Get the plug cleaned / replaced depending on the condition. how many Km's on the ODO ? i had the same problem at 17K KMS. too much carbon deposit was there. get it cleaned and you are good to go! if the FI system misbehaves, your bike wont start. so rule out that issue
          Keep Calm and Kaam se Kaam

          To all those how-to-run-in-the-bike-oh-it's-so-confusing. Here's an advice.
          Read and follow the OWNER's Manual. Keep it simple.. Old School technique will do more good than harm your bike

            Guys I get a "khat" sound(something like metal expanding sound) when I sit on the bike and some times when I go over big bumps... Is it something wrong with the rear suspension or the chassis?? I hear this after my crash ( tyre and fork took most of the damage.. No side impact) so I guess chassis is alright also tried riding with both hands off to check chassis damage, it went perfect.. What's the problem?? Will lubing monocross fix the problem.. Am bit worried please help

              Yes, you are right.. sometimes it takes a couple of press to the start button

                Recently got a HTC one v. Wanted to test its camera[ or say needed an excuse to head out of town]. I am a novice in photography nevertheless the images are looking quite good, its all down to the camera.
                Coming to the bike,its been 13800Km on the odo and the engine has opened up nicely. Clocking 100kmph and holding it, is as easy as a pie

                    Damn! ..Your R15 looks really neat in that black color. The '46' adds a nice touch too

                          Please check the connection of the Battery with the HID Unit. Also, turn on your headlights in the day to notice if the above mentioned night symptoms are taking place or not. I guess you are loading the battery and that's why the switching off.

                          Apart from the light issue what is your idle RPM? May be lower RPM and Temperature may turn off the bike.

                            What does it mean loading the battery?? I have using this setup for at least 6 months!!!! Can you please elaborate clearly? And the idle rpm is 1k

                              Loading the battery more means adding or installing electronics which have more intake of power than the recommended voltage setup.


                              The way I see it, since you are using this setup for 6 months and this is happening recently then idle rpm is the culprit, keep it between 1300-1500 as mentioned in the manual. Also rains have caused the ambient temperature to drop during night time, this does slightly affect if you have low rpm as mentioned.

                              Again, try the idling first, if it works then good or there is some electrical issue which has cropped up recently, Report to SVC.
