And since you and I have mention and stressed the same point, where exactly is the sarcasm...??

    And the quoted bold part in your post is just a plain fact. You know it.
    Since you posted it after i expressed my view, its human nature to take it in sarcastic way!

      Have done few 400+ One day rides on the machine and it would never let you down.

      As long as the roads are smooth, its fantastic.
      If you are in offroad mode, then it could be painful for your body.

      Else its fun on the highway.

          Yeah, and it can also be human nature to clarify first and then think whatever you want.

            All lights and controls.
            Check the indicator switchgear, I have seen it faulty in many machines.

            Rest Yammy people are good guys, should not be much issue.
            Ride On,

              PDI check list:

              -All body parts for scratches, dents and misfits.
              -Odometer reading.
              -Instrumental cluster for any defect in lights and lcd.
              -All switch-gears and its functions.
              -Headlights, tail light and indicators.
              -Radiator for bent fins.
              -Engine oil and coolant level.
              -Front shock absorber leaks.
              -Chain slack and lube state.
              -Both alloys for any visible cracks/bends.
              -Engine noise, vibration and harshness. (not that its going to have, but better to ensure it doesn't)
              -Both brakes- Oil level and effectiveness.
              -Tyre pressure.

              That should be all i guess.

                And he indeed owns a major stake of those threads you see. Including the ones out n out about the R15.


                Hey Satyenbhaiya, what's your current ride? Something i've been wondering lately..
                He he I am as of now riding a R15 (which isnt mine) but I do have my R15 too!
                I shuffle between the R15 and the Ninja650, and at times my mutant RTR for mad arse stuff :P

                  1.Please Check for the proper fit and finish of the stickers in the tank. My bike (same edition/colour) has a minute defect. When closely observed a small strip of sticker has a kind of air bubble.
                  2.RVM's alignment should be checked.

                    Remember Oil+Filter is cheaper than a scored engine!
                    Yep. Guru, I changed it on your suggestion, and it felt better.

                        What's the break-in procedure you followed,bhaisahab?
                        Do include the oil+filter change intervals..

                          First change in 200KMs, and then on as per the recommended specifications.
                          However I change the filter when I am switching my oil spec. (from semi synth to ful synth)

                              First oil+oil filter change at 200km - mineral oil

                              Second oil+ oil filter change at 1000km - to semi synthetic(?)

                              Third oil+oil filter change at 2nd service - to fully synthetic(?)

                              Do clarify bhaijaan..

                                I completely agree..!

                                This bike is damn fun touring for single rider.. I generally ride Pulsar 180 during weekdays & take out this babe for fun ride on highways on weekends..

                                The moment I switch to this bike, I feel like gaining extra wings to fly low.
                                The real fun is within city traffic to beat vehicles with swift & killer moves, this leaves other bikers blank.

                                I just love the bike handling 'What you can do with this bike, you cant do with any other bike'...

                                You will surely enjoy this Jet!
