    Correct to the core. Keep a quality check on the watchman thingy (Just don't assume that since you are paying him 100 bucks he is taking care of the bike. Test him once, twice)

    Don't play with electricals. Fi bikes are anyways difficult to steal.
    I guess that's the only thing i can do. Thank u guys for this.

        • Cheque issued

          Hey guys,

          Went to chennai pbk and gave a cheque for 114K

          And the guy said the total was 134260 incl RTO charges

          The thing is when I booked, in the breakup given the Amt was 133270 anyone knows y this difference of 1K???

          And also he said not sure when they will issue the bike, might be this weekend or next week!!!

          Please provide ur inputs...

          And for the power parts, the price goes as below:

          Tank pad 1450
          Crash pad 2180
          Rim Stickers 1270
          Tankcap(sticker???) 1820
          Jacket large/medium 14890
          Gloves large black 5270

          IMHO they r way too costly and the gloves and jack are made in Pakistan ???(it was imprinted) and yet too pricey

          Update: I also asked them about the coolant leak/ chain loosening frequently / the footrest vibration... The coolant problem they said the level will b checked and given and also the coolant won't work before the engine heats over 90degz ... They will give a lube spray which must be used on the chain every 500 km to ensure quality ... And the foot pegs , he even showed a copl of bik and suggested that it was a rare case and they will check all these during delivery... Hmmm sounds promising

                  this happened to me as well. I was quoted 1,32,666

                  but when i got a call for balance payment they told me price of 1,33,916. saying there were increases in RTO charges.

                    They must be 100% premium grade leather... I have Teknic Racing Gloves which are brought from the states and are made in Pakistan. To update you on some knowledge, these gloves will provide you maximum protection against other ones. Pakistan is famous for leather made products, other brands might manufacture them in Italy or China but their leather intake is from this country.

                    I was in a fix too when gloves were purchased in the States were made in Pakistan...

                    So its alright to use them for touring, another thing would be they are extremely comfortable in hot weathers, i dont know what is it but my hand never sweats in summer riding and it does not have vents either yet the glove is a full gauntlet one.

                      Hmmm so no way to know the exact price anyway let's just think that the 900 odd bucks are for the bike to get delivered sooner

                      Hmmm thanks for the info bro!!!
                      Anyway since it was from the neighbouring Pakistan (manufacturer / importer unknown) I dint expect it to be priced at almost 6k... Anyway I'll try to wear them and see during delivery to check its comfort ,quality and most of all check if it's really a vfm

                        rjswaroop2004 if you have already booked, then you will not have to pay anything more than what the current price is.

                        They will first stop bookings. Clear the backlog - Re-open bookings with the new price tag. Exactly the way they did for Mahindra XUV 500.
                        Khat Khat sound comes when the chain touches the swingarm, called up the vashi showroom guys, there is some rubber to be added which the showroom/ service stations guys will be doing it .......... just ask for it ........

                        i was expericient the same issue from day 1, but after all sort of checking the kulprit of the noise was found........

                        apart from that some time the gears slips and few times false neutral

                        We can change the oil to Motul 20W50 which is KTM approved .......cost will find out ............. A.H. Helmets in Andheri West gives discount for Biker groups ......... and he has also got some parts for KTM

                            I too heard this from someone that all the good stuffs are made in Pakistan. We need Bi-lateral trade agreement ASAP.

                                Let's do this.. what say?
