    Isn't that a bit high? In Mumbai, servicing used to cost me just around 950/- along with an engine oil and fuel filter change.
    Any other parts you got changed? Or got the chain cleaned and lubed from them? (This costed around 350/- inclusive of tax but I never told the Honda guys to do it as I bought the Motul Chain Cleaner and Lube and did it by myself.)

    Quality service also matters a great deal to me. So is their service and expertise satisfactory?

    Also, the battery of my bike is almost 4 years old and is showing signs of dying out now. Members, please recommend me a good battery too! Thanks!

    I have an upcoming service next month. I shall try to live with it till then.

    I changed air filter, engine oil, chain sprocket also some minor repairs cost was around 3k. Service quality is really good, dont worry they dont charge much extra. I will say it is best place to service cbr.

    I'm pretty sure its the windshield. When it vibrates, I can actually see the left side of the windshield vibrating. When I hold it, the vibration stops.



    Oh. I'm not really capable of such repairs. I'm more of a software guy Besides, I'm not comfortable with the idea of using sticky tape. Is this vibrating common with other CBRs?
    Yup, pretty common. try adding rubber washers on both sides of the screws. It should reduce the vibrations considerably. if nothing work out, thin strips of double sided tape is the only answer. All you have to do is open the screws, stick tape in between the windshield and headlight assembly and put back the screws.

    Double sided sticky tape is the answer. Open up the windshield, stick 2 pieces of narrow 3cm long double sided sticky tape on both the sides of the headlight assembly where the windshield touches the headlight assembly. Screw back the windshield making sure that the screws are tight. Hope this helps. Cheers.

Before I go to the service centre, I would like to know if this is common and is there an easy fix for this? If I push a cloth down the windshield, the vibrations stop, but I don't like having a cloth there.
