  • Too difficult to Explain this but will try my best so that someone here can understand and tell a fix.

    The Spoket to which the wheel is attached is loose. (Ie) When the Chain Pulls the Socket, it does not rotate the Wheel.

    It rotates a little, then the wheel rotates. Similar to a bottle cap. When rotating the bottle cap rotates first and when the cap is fully tight, it makes the bottle to rotate with it.

    Is this Normal ?

    Sorry I don't have any other examples to explain this...

          Sorry to say that that is a prejudicial view. The mechanics are not changing the sprockets at the time of servicing. The speed of every GS including yours and mine at 4 K rpm in 6th gear is around 56 kmh.
          angle while you drive.
          Maybe its a problem with the speedo calibration then(coz the difference in speeds at each gear is ~6kmph for mine as well as the calculated figures). They did replace the headlight glass, so maybe they did something with the instrument panel as well. tbh I'd be fine with it if only that is the problem.

          Anyway, I know how to read a dial and the speeds I get are exactly what I mentioned.

            It is very difficult to replace the lens in the headlight assembly and the mechanics are not doing it. Instead, whenever needed, they will replace the assembly itself. In your case, the replaced ‘glass’ may be the visor; not the headlight lens.
            The instrument panel (the speedometer console) of our bike is sealed and cannot be opened and repaired. In case of any problem, the console itself is changed.
            Extremely happy to know that you know how to read the dial. Please know this too. The headlight assembly and the speedometer console are two different, independent parts and are not connected together. That means, each can be removed independently.

                    • I am back with the famous "Cling" noise issue from the gear lever in my bike
                      Although many say that this is a non existing imaginary issue I am confidant of its presence.
                      Even the gear shifts have become harder..
                      The ODO reading is just approaching 1000km more from the last oil change.

                      Will go for a oil change soon this time as my next scheduled service is still month apart as I believe the oil is the culprit..
                      But strange that it has lost its character before 1000kms???
