        Happy birthday to your post....
        Jokes apart....your getting the bonus service since you have completed each and every service

        May i ask which things were changed during the non-free services and their costs?
        And are they bonus services free like the first 4?

        And how is your bike after 1 year of long term usage

          Thanx Buddy...

          Yes.. Since my usage is 70 Kms a day, I completed all the service ahead of schedule...

          Bonus service (9th Service) is free iff when you have completed all the free & paid services on time... (Extra free serv)

          During paid services, bill was approx 1,000 Rs.. (service labour + engine oil + lubricants) and any additional stuff if reqd...

          So far

          - Have replaced spark plug twice.
          - Replaced disc brake rotor under warranty.
          - Clutch coil replaced twice under warranty as oil leakage...
          - Suspension set to Hard - 4
          - Due fork oil replacement..
          - Tyre due for replacement...

          Itz great.. 70kms of commuting/day on weekdays... Slight rattling noise from rear mudguards...

              Until 7th service Motul 10w40 mineral oil was used by service center



              From 8th paid service, service center had changed to same grade Synthetic oil... So using this for the moment...

                Forgot to add...

                Have changed the chain sprocket in 8th service (28,000 kms).. I used to clean & lube (Motul) the chain regularly every 1200 Kms on ODO and in between service intervals....

                  Guys.. The back part of the bike.. The number plate especially vibrates a lot on rough roads.. I've removed the the extra guard they they provided as i find it too long.. Any solutions to stop the vibrations? A friend of mine suggested to pull the number plate upwards a bit.. Should i try it?

                    The company states the mineral oil has a range of 1500 km....how much does the synthetic oil states?and how are your observations regarding the comparison of two oils?

                      Hi All,

                      Recently I've changed to MOTUL10w40 and also I gave bike for 3 service
                      There is mileage drop from 45 to 40 and throttle is not free it's struggling to reach 75 kmph

                      Is it because of oil change or any other factors?

                      RPM Set at 7500

                      Please suggest me what to be done?

                      Thank you
                      Harsha

                        Everyone uses the motul 10w40
                        Its the grade of oil
                        You have to be specific if its mineral or synthetic or if its given from the svc and how much it costs?
                        Or is it 5100 or 7100?

                          And for the record rpm indicator just doesn't restrict your capabilities
                          It is just a flasher which awares you of you are going over the pre designated power band

                            Not sure buddy.. But i guess mineral oil should easily last 4,000 Kms... Synthetic oil probably more.. 7,500 Kms... I have bough 1 ltr of engine oil from the service center to top it up myself when the oil level dips below the low level...

                            I think with change to synthetic oil, the heat has come down a bit...

                            Gear shifts are clunky sometimes...

                              Depends upon the bike (engine tech, tolerances etc), riding conditions, riding pattern etc to name a few.

                              My observation in the busy streets of Bangalore is that mineral oils don't last more than 2000-2200 km and synthetics maybe twice as much.
                              Got a $5 head? Get a $5 helmet.

                                May be that was the reason, that authorized service centers switched to synthetic oil's..
