    No, it wont. Many of the mechanics at the ASC do not even know that headlight works only while engine running. And I had this mod by a bajaj mechanic(outside the ASC of course)
    I also asked the same question at the ASC (after doing the mod), they said It is not a big deal as there was no additional load on the battery.
    there will be only one wire that will be cut, one that of the headlight switch, which now will be connected to another wire that of the engine kill switch.
    Just a simple mod.

    If I have time I will post some pics this weekend.

      Height of stupidity from ASC mechanics: when they put some oil on the disc when I asked them to rectify the disc sound problem. But my persistence and anger finally lit up their tube lights and the problem was solved in a sane manner .

        • Going for the first service tomorrow. The spanner icon showed up when I reached 450 on my odo. Should I go for SS or mineral oil (It'd be nice if u could tell me the name too.)? Seniors pls reply ASAP. And thanks in advance..

            Yes, Kerosene is what came to My mind as well.. Will do that While cleaning up the Chain.

            Anyways, acetone Is the word that I was looking for. I somewhere read that mixing Acetone in the Petrol gives good result..
            I am more inclined toward mixiing acetone with kerosene while cleaning the Chain.. What Say?? ..
            NO . Acetone destroys rubber too . Your chain has rubber O-rings in it . Use only kerosene to clean , and that too sparingly with a soft toothbrush and very gently(so as not to damage the rubber rings) . Then wipe off the chain with soft cloth and apply a bit of light oil like fresh motor oil . Baas . O-ring chains need no lubrication , the oil is just to keep the rubber rings supple and keep them from drying out .

            • Few days ago my NS developed a very unusual issue witht he speedo console. The ODO digits seemed to flicker constantly unlike in trip modes.
              So i went to SVC and got it checked, the manager offered me a prompt replacement under warranty for which he took 2 days. That being solved, there was another issue with rear disk brakes. They kept jamming randomly bringing the bike to a screeching halt . SVC guys took out the disc and oil and cleaned them and checked oil pressure. But the problem was not solved. Disc would jam roughly after every 15KMS. So they took another look at it and found that the rear brake lever play was very less, so now they hav increased the brake lever play, no problem till now, its almost been more than 40 KMS.
              Anybody here had the same issues as above?

              • My front disc plate is screwed up...changing it under warranty...but stock will come after 20 days. Disc plate is bent and bike making a very very loud chik chik sound from the disc... Svc guys said that few ns owners are already facing the same issue of bent disc plate resulting in noise... Called up bajaj customer care from the svc itself at that time and just blasted them like hell...got a call from pune in less than 30 mins and they arranged another free service for me tomorrow at another svc...after that got two more calls..one from the svc where i serviced my bike today and another from OSL highcommand...now hope to get it solved... So guys with disc squeeling plz check the plate..might be bent at a particular location. Mark the plate with a marker then rotate the wheel and see where the marker is erased...that place is bent... Mine is extreame

                  And, you never look into speed meter.... look in to RPM meter. Keep it under 4K or 4.5K maximum upto first service. After that slowly raise RPM to 5K or 5.5K RPM max.
                  Thanks man. I will check with the service.

                    Ah ha! Exactly the procedure I follow. But instead of fresh motor oil I've been using 90 grade gear oil from Castrol. The stock chain on my earlier P200 lasted for ~30k Kms. Following exactly the same procedure on the NS.

                        Showed to my bike to service centre today morning. Service guy took a ride and then concluded that right handle got slightly bent when u fall and resulting in a wobbling kind of feeling. There is a need to change a handle. Which is not available. Will call service people in afternoon and will ask them to make it available. Fingers crossed

                          Wobbling of rear tyre due to a bend handle!!!!
                          Double check if the issue goes out after the change of Handle. Otherwise, you will be paying for a new handle, without any gain.

                            I am thinking how come a bend handle causes a wobling in rear tyre ??

                            I feel it is lose fit of rear tyre or your alloy has gone kaput at some point in circumfrence!! Bend handle has to be changed else that will sustain a different ride style to you!!

                              Hey shibadip.. actually slight wobbling is there but i am not sure if it is in front or rear. I have called for handle today. The guy on a desk told that he will order and will take a week. Let see if this issue goes or not

                              • >500 kms done after first service and I bought the chain lubricant. But idk why I am not able to find kerosene in my locality for cleaning the chain. Can I use turpentine oil instead of kerosene??
