      I will check the issue of the air pressure built up in the tank after long ride today. I did have a feeling that there is some issue with fuel line. On neutral after switching on the bike it stutters for a bit. Actually managed to cut off a couple of times also. So I have to get it checked.

      About not being able to put the bike in neutral its not a major issue yet. Just that in a traffic jam sometimes it becomes very difficult to hold the clutch till there is movement as the bike will not go to neutral. Will report that to SVC and see what happens. Same issue while parking also. On first gear moving the bike backwards seems to a bit hard. I can feel some kind of BRAKE force stopping it going back. Is this normal?

      Can someone advice me how to interpret the serial number of a bike. As in where does the year of make and model number etc show in the serial number with an example. It will help all others also.

      You are doing a MRI scanning and whole body scanning of your bike as a result of your post purchase axiety, which is absolutly unnecessary. Whatever you describe as issues are common in all GSs. I can understand your anxiety but there is nothing special in your bike as it is not specially manufactured for you.
      The shuttering you described is due to low rpm of the engine; not due to fuel vapor. If it does not make any major problems, let the rpm remain the same.
      To engage the neutral gear, disengage the clutch fully and apply a slight pressure on the lever and at the same time watch the nuetral indicator. The brake force you feel is not braking; it means that you are not disengaging the clutch properly.

      So, my suggestion is to stop the MRI/whole body scanning of the bike and let it run in the present condition up to the time of its 1st service. Read the owners manual thouroughly when you get enough lessure time. All the best.

        You agree that the bike is smooth. If it is true, there is no need to aproach the service center with unreal – imaginary – problems because they will make changes in the original settings of the bike as per your descriptions which will lead to unnecessary or unexpected results.

        HMM...well i am as worried as anyone would be about their bike mate. And whole idea of not going to the SVC directly is because i discuss issues here to find out if they are actual problems or something just i am thinking is a problem. Isn't that the whole idea of the thread, discuss about the bike?? it is a bit of relief for me that i am not the only one who has faced issues, but i really cant go back 1000 pages of discussion to see if the problem was discussed or not. hence i ask them here. Apologies if anyone is getting irritated by it.
