I've seen local works also not bad, mine is a local work, there are pics, but they are towards the starting of this thread..

    here....

    I hope it helps you get an idea... I went to a local sticker shop, he did it on the non-radium sticker.. so it doesn't shine and I like it that way.. good quality, survived a fall and a slide on track & street, still holding good.. good quality I'll say.. or lucky me?
    DIY anyday!!, Local sticker shops does really good work, thing is you need patience... Ask for their convenient time and visit them so that they are free and hence are more likely to try and bring out their best, and are more open to your choices, so on and the results would usually be amazing. They even stick it for you in a very good manner, do not risk sticking on your own.

    Not to mention it works out very very cheap than wrapandride or so, and if you can speak local language trust me nothing like it here in Bangalore, else take a friend who can help with local language helps a great deal in conveying things more clearly.

    Cheers

    Hey s1d, yeah they changed the pump itself rather than doing the adjustment.

    I have used it on my friend's Himalayan as well and it was great. Always keep a couple or more of bungee cords extra they might come handy.

    Attached images for your reference. Sorry for the potato quality of the photos though.


    thank u so much bro

    P.S. DO NOT add the entire picture set. Remove all pics before quoting.

    try and negotiate.. but first find the cause of the faulty fuel gauge readings. if it's the float and it can be fixed for a few bucks, just pay up and get it done but if it requires the entire fuel pump to be replaced then try to negotiate for warranty.

    most folks just do their free services (well, because its free) and thereafter neglect regular servicing at recommended periodic intervals. at least stick to the recommended intervals during the 2 yr warranty period and thereafter you can save money by delaying services (i.e. if you don't clock as many km between the recommended intervals). this piece of advice goes out to everyone who are concerned about warranty irrespective of the motorcycle.
    So I finally got the service done in ECity SVC. Fuel setup came under warranty adding a happy ending to my troubles.

    Here i go riding again... Thanks a lot fellas..
