    Ya half the amount. But it takes time 10 days can't use the bike . also their is a special insurance for fairing alone if we missed it while buying itself. We can't opt for that. I missed it[emoji20]

      Isn't that zero dep insurance?? . it is add-on package over normal insurance and only given to new bikes for 3 years

        Don't worry bro. Insurance business model is such that it only milks money from the customers and even if you'd have claimed insurance under 0% dep. you would have been in a loss. First you pay more for zero dep and then you also lose NCB for subsequent renewals resulting in higher indurance charges. This leaves a person with no other option than to pay for repairs from the pocket rather than claiming insurance. Claiming insurance gets justified only for large bills for major repairs in typical cases.

          That's the biggest irony.

          Fortunately, this mandatory-insurance works in cities and popular district centers. At smaller towns & villages nobody cares to renew them.; at least at my hometown they don't.

          Those living in cities have to make sure to earn more.

              Any one who has done, pls can u post a video or steps to follow. Any mechanic good at doing this around Chennai.
              I didn't go to the SVC because this is a higher powered bulb and they may not help in fixing it.

                    Hi Everyone,

                    After going through lot of reviews and test drive.... Got my Gixxer SF MOTOGP BLUE on 5th Sep 2015. The bikes ride quality is really awesome... drove in the rain yesterday i am really impressed with the breaking and well balanced drive.

                    I will post some picks in my coming posts.... I felt there was little bit of engine heat because of which idle acceleration is increasing. The service person has told me it will be like that till initial 2000km.


                    I am thinking of keeping an rear tyre mud guard over the tyre by altering FZv2.0 mudguard.

                    I am also want to replace the head light lamp which something suites for night drive over outer ring road. Please suggest me if you know. Thanks in advance

                        Hi, Thanks for the info about the headlamp question I posted. I will probably go there this weekend and get the lamp fixed.

                        I unfortunately couldn't make it to the Gixxer cup this last Sunday, since I over slept [emoji15] . But I am sure it would have been a blast just like last time.
