      A rubbing compound would help remove scratches that are not deep. As your bike's paint is not worn, please use it where the scratches are. Wax after using the rubbing compound.

If you remove the guards and for some God forsaken reason ur bike falls your tank, handlebards and uR LEGS are gonna take a serious hit..

        Now the sari guard - can be removed ... but I find only one use of it and that is to hook up bungee cords
        This.
        Guys never remove the leg guards.. It's their for a purpose. My own bike had a minor fall on the side once (after applying front brakes as a bus dead stopped in front of me) & the leg guard took the entire hit & weight on it. If leg guard wasn't there the bike would've had damage & scratch marks on the tank, tail cowl etc..
        lol I learned a crucial lesson that day.. never trust a bus driver & always maintain a safe distance from it's rear or go around it. Buses usually stop unpredictably to pick up passengers.

        I also think the tire huger is a acceptable addon & it shouldn't be removed either. just my opinion. but 99% of NSians remove it

            Please do not try anything like that . You are likely to aggravate those minor scratches like that(with abrasives and rubbing) . Just keep applying wax normally and ignore it . In some time the scratches will become invisible as they lose their edges . Also it is unlikely to affect your ride or make you go any slower .

              I had an accident a while ago and got the bike repaired with insurance
              Most of the parts replaced was metal. I paid 16065/- for the repair and I received 8410/- from the insurance. Most expensive parts were fork assembly, front tyre and head lamp.
              Plastic parts were at most 3500/- as far as I can infer from the bill. I can list the entire bill if someone wants a clearer view. Is that a fair amount that insurance covered?
              thats a huge sum... please do post the breakup of the cost

              Cost :-

              ---Brush : 10 bucks
              ---1 Hour & 15 mins to do the complete job.
              ---Smile on my face : Priceless

              Lack of a centre stand was a pain when I started to do it on the left side ...but did it anyway...

              Also , my earlier post regarding the vibration of the black coloured components on the tank got resolved on its own somehow...also the tyres perform really nice after the run-in...
              thata looking wow.... btw bro what happened to your nails? you chewed them all? lol and those tank vibes come and go on their own...strange stuff...making the afr rich smoothens the engine with no drop in mileage

              remove the saree guard but dont remove the leg guard... it will firstly protect your legs and secondly and most importantly it will protect the radiator...in case of a fall if the radiator is gone then you will be stranded...you wont be able to ride the bike...

              thats the exact reason i didn't use a rubbing compound on my scratches... i just apply 3-4 coats of carnauba on the scratched surface and keep it like that... its a bike aftrall, it will get scratched eventually... everything is good till the engine is good

              • Power of Email and a good news

                So i had sent an email to "sai service" customer care and got no reply about so many service jobs not caried out..sent an email to bajaj customer care and BINGO

                after 2 days i get a call to come again and get the incomplete jobs done...

                if anyone wants i can put the long email with my complaints..

                Also the manager has told me the rubber grommets have come and will be installed...bajaj has made grommets for each bike and sent to their SVC so i was told by december end all bikes will get rubber grommets. I dont know how they plan to do like may be call each owner or something else but yes the manager himself confirmed that yes he will get those installed in my bike

                Since i am busy with exams till 18th dec i wont be able to go,so on 19th i am going to SVC to get my incomplete jobs done and get the tank vibration problems solved.


                Also

                The manager told bajaj has organized some training sort of stuff for the NS owners and for me as i stay in mumbai and in kandivali he said ur neartest SVC is in borivali so you will be invited.

                It will be for 4 days and over 700 NSians will be coming..

                All NSians..just contact your SVC branch manager...they will help you out every time u have a problem and ask them about the rubber grommets...
                If they dont help out...you always have the bajaj customer care....very happ that atleast a customer was heard and given a chance to get his complaint resolved

                        I feel the same things sometimes over the speed breakers. Guys, anyone else facing the same issue? please help.
                        previously, i thought that the sound is not coming from my bike but now i'm sure that it IS coming from the bike.

                        to reduce/permanently eliminate the vibrations.

                          to reduce/permanently eliminate the vibrations.

                          Try riding your motorcycle over potholes without the tool kit inside the rear pillion seat. Its probably the sound of those tools hitting each other inside.
                          If the sound still persists,take it to your nearest SVC.
                          Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take...,
                          But by the moments that take your breath away...

                            i did mention that the sound is not metallic so tools could be ruled out...
