  • Just a quick clarification. Is a free service doable in any service center other than where I took the bike?

      Yes, as long as the service center is an Authorized Bajaj service center, you can get any service done from them.
      Not at all an issue, just make sure that its recorded in your owners manual.

      P.S : Congrats on your purchase.

Use a soft, porous cloth and wipe it clean properly and tighten the oil drain nut. Check it again the next day, if its still leaking and not much in quantity, its ok, else run down the SVC.
        No, am still @ 323 kms. Never been into SVC. Will check tomorrow for any further leak.

        I had the same rear disc brake noise. Seems, its fixed permanently. There is some axle issue which is now rectified permanently.
        In my case, it's not all over engine. Its only in under part of engine. More on near drain screw. Will check oil level tomorrow.

        Thank you guys

        btw, here are the pictures.

            Seems to be from drain bolt but it is also on the other side , ie Oil filter side also.
            So cant be sure, clean it completely and check tmrow morning which side is the leak coming from. That will give a better idea.

                    I think there's sum problem with my bike's fuel indicator also...

                    sumtimes it shows 1 bar..den again wen I go for other trip it shows 3 bars,sumtimes 2.....Apart from this in other bikes when petrol comes in reserve , the bike gets off automatically and when we rotate the fuel tap to reserve we can restart.... So y is it different in NS? If so then

                    I think this is bad move made by bajaj .....

                    And that rear disc sound....Do we need to splash the water lifelong during rainy season??????????????? If so then

                    Its really irritating

                      Digital fule meters are all unreliable, its not a bajaj specific problem, you must live with it.

                      And the disk sound, once the pads set it, the sound will vanish , only will resurface if too much dirt accumilates or pads wear out completely.

                          Buddy, just spend some more time with ur bike, and u will get a hang of the issues.
                          The Fuel Indicator being a digital one will never be accurate, and will keep shifting One or Two bars. It will only give u a fair Idea of How much fuel there might be in the Tank.
                          The rear Disc sound will go off once the breaks are properly set-in.

                              Nope.. I had that Same thing right on my P150 right from the start. The SVC guys couldnt do much. They would only tell u need to fill full-tank and check if all the bars are showing or not.

                              U ride the bike for a few months and u will get the hang of it.

                              • First Week Impressions

                                Exactly one week since I got my bike...

                                • Total ODO: 465
                                • Maximum speed: 89
                                • Maximum RPM: 7k
                                • Avg Speed: 35-60
                                • Fuel Efficiency as per tank full method: 35


                                Problems so far:
                                • Lot of noise from front forks (rectified by SVC guys)
                                • Rear Disk Brake was giving out loud sound (rectified by SVC guys)
                                • Fuel Indicator acts crazy many times (Suddenly from 6 bars to 2 bars, then after restart around 4 bars, again 2, then 3) (Not rectified/able)
                                • Warning light (round orange one on top) turns on randomly for no reason, sometimes goes off after engine kill/restart.
                                • Quite a lot of vibrations initially (rectified by SVC guys)
                                • Rear Tyres tend to lock easily, at slightest provocation
                                • Rear panel gaps uneven (didnt have a choice, all bikes were same)

                                Oh, and since the rear tyre hugger wasnt doing its job well, I removed it... It now looks ultra-sexy, but now sprays water not just on pillions entire back, but even upto main riders's helmet, not to mention tail lamps, under rear pillion seat etc etc

                                EDIT: Have had a few self-start issues with the bike refusing to turn on at times... (No, not a cold morning... But yeah, when fuel was almost nearing reserve)
