    Ask them to check the engine foundation bolts and tighten if necessary. Also ask them to check ALL the body work fasteners.

        Since you are getting all of the above done, you may as well get the swing pivot, rear shock absorber mountings greased. Ask them to remove the swing arm completely and also remove the shock absorber from the top mounting and do the greasing. They normally tend to take a short cut by simply removing the swing arm shaft and applying greasing and reassembling the whole thing.

                Common man, that depends on the riding style and where he is riding. I myself have my tyres at 20k and still a little more to go, where as I know many who has reached 30k with it and who hasnt even reached 12k with it.

                  There are tyre wear indicators on the tire tread (tiny raised bars in the siping).
                  If the tyre reaches the wear limit or has poor grip or is causing handling problems then you must replace it.

                  Ofcourse, as Ivin has mentioned, tire life will depend on your riding style and riding conditions.
                  The front tire will usually last much longer but i would recommend replacing both tires together.

                    This is true,
                    My bike was ripped hard from day 1 and my friend was doing manual stuffs and more soft approach
                    My bike has more grunt and feels like more powerful and can cruise very nicely @3.5k apm in 6th gear with pillion.
                    Now my bike like tiger his one is a pussycat

                    as all know i owned 2 r15v2s till now. the first one i treated like a drag bike at it was just amazing in terms of acceleration and top speed but obviously with vibes. had done 152kmph on that.
                    the 2nd bike was done a very boring runnin till 2.5kms by the first owner so it became a softer bike with lesser top end and not the same acceleration as first bike. top was 148kmph something after riding miles together crouching. so totally 2 different behavior depending on the way you shape it to be. think wise.
