Before finalizing the deal for the new Twister, I gave a thought of taking a TD of Dream Yuga for which the MD obliged.

Wasting no time, took the keys from another SE who is in-charge of the TD vehicles and asked him not to accompany me for TD (as they usually accompany the customer for TDs) and went on a long test drive alone. The engine was butter smooth and the initial pick-up was amazing, just like Twister, and I was really impressed. After returning from the TD, I changed my mind of taking a new Twister and changed the booking to Honda Dream Yuga.

After having a chat with the managing director regarding replacement of Twister by Dream Yuga, I was directed to book the Dream Yuga through the same SE who had dealt with me during my booking of Twister.

SE: Sir, why not happy with Twister? (she actually knows the reason as to why I am exchanging the Twister for DY).
Me: Yes, very much happy with Twister, so replacing it .
SE: Okay sir, Dream Yuga is also a good bike, but you have to buy accessories for this.
Me: What? Your MD said that she will be giving me all the accessories free of cost (FOC).
SE: No sir, she said that you will be exchanging your Twister FOC
Me: Okay then, let me speak to your MD once again

(Meanwhile, MD comes out of her cabin and blasts the SE left and right and says to give all accessories FOC)

After MD goes to her cabin:
Me: What do you say ma'am, should I have to buy the accessories?
SE: Please buy at least something from us sir.
Me: What do you want me to buy?
SE: At least buy tank cover and accelerator grip.
Me: What is the cost of both? (just to pull her leg I asked this)
SE: Tank cover is 150/- and accelerator grip is 100/- and totally only 250/- sir, and you please don't worry sir, we will re-pay back the whole amount in the form of chocolate box and bouquet worth 250/- as a compliment from our MD during delivery !!!! I could not control my laughter
Me: Please do not force me to buy anything, just follow your MD's orders.
SE: Okay sir, as you wish.

Ex-showroom price: 49717
Insurance : 1002
Smart Card : 230
Accessories : 1100
Registration & RT : 120+5518
Total : 57687/-

Later, I just signed a few papers stating that I have exchanged the Twister with DY signed by the MD herself and as usual, my photograph with address proof.

SE asked me which colour I am interested in and I was a bit confused with red and Black. Saw a black one in their showroom and it was looking awesome, so decided to go with DY Black. SE informed me that DY black self/alloy is not available right now and waiting period is around 10 days. I was okay with it. After completing all the formalities left the showroom.

On July 17th, got a call from showroom stating that my bike is ready to be delivered. I was like dumbstruck. I had informed SE earlier that I have to do the PDI myself before registration, but she informed me that the bike has already been registered in my name. I rushed to the showroom at 4 p.m. the same day. My black beauty was parked in their showroom and they did the PDI in front of me. I asked the SE to check the oil level out of curiosity and lo and behold, the engine oil level was not up to the mark. I asked the SE that how can you deliver the bike without checking the oil levels, which would have led to a serious disaster later? For that, he apologized and filled it to the required level and handed over the bike to me.

I saw that they had fitted all the accessories on my black beauty except the tank cover and seat cover. I inquired about this and the SE stated that as this is a new bike, those two covers are still not available and will give a call once they reach their showroom. I took delivery of the bike around 5 p.m.

Pics of my Black Beauty

Features I liked in Dream Yuga68 km/L in Bangalore heavy traffic, and this is even before 1st service; I think it will increase further after consecutive services and I am very much impressed about this. I am yet to take it on highway. I am damn sure that it will give 80+ if driven between 50-55 km on highways. Riding position is also awesome. The handlebar is short, and due to the seating position and the short handlebar, you will get a feeling that you are not riding a normal commuter bike, but a sports bike. The handlebar position was not comfortable for me as I had to lean a bit forward to grab it, so I changed the position myself.

A few more pics of my "Black Beauty"

ah cool the thread's finally up congrats dude and, honestly, i loved the DY's ad too

Congrats!...

Bike looking nice and mileage (68 kmpl) too is very good....

Yes bro, thanks so much. I have not seen the DY ad yet

Thanks dude . I am riding it in a range of 40-45 km/hr, so that might be the reason for such a mileage.

Guys, I am getting a peculiar sound when I switch off the ignition each and every time consistently on a daily basis after returning from a ride, both short and long drives, sounds like "tik tik," and fades away after some time. Is this normal?

It's the automatic engine cooling, nothing to worry

It is normal. Don't worry. Its because of cooling.
