    hey dude, not doubting 300v's goodness for our R15s, but was just taken aback when i realised there's no 20w40/50 grade of that. hence wanted to reconfirm about it here, that's all :-)

      Something strange happened today. When I was returning back from a ride, the bike started vibrating badly(I could feel the vibes even when idling). I also felt that the throttle response had detriorated as well. Thought of taking it to the ASC, as its almost due for a service, but when I took the bike for a spin gain later today, everything returned back to normal. I have no idea what has happened . I am gonna ride it for this week to my college and check if the issue resurfaces.

            It is the bush that is used on the panels near to the meter console. It can easily fall if the panels are not re-installed correctly when removed.

              Yes just place the bush below the panel holder & push it through the small mouth of the bush upward, it will nicely get fit in there... Without those bushes the console panel tends rattle in uneven surfaces.

                  Go to the svc . They will remove it. The part costs around 1.5k

                      Not at all. It will cause the brake oil to leak. You have to replace the screw with the same type. Experienced hands can take out the damaged screw out and put a new screw in place.

                        I looked the panels around the meter console, but not able to figure out where this thing goes. I'll really appreciate if you can post an image for reference.

                          This pack, in 2012, costed a whooping 25k.

                              I looked underneath panels on both sides, and I can feel the bush already present there. I also found similar bush where radiator is attached with the frame. Don't know from where it fell off.
                              Anyways, there are no strange vibes even when I ride the bike on uneven surface.
