      My nelli is almost ready for its 3rd service and its gonna cost be 6 times of the price you just quoted.
      For third service it'll cost you something around 6500... Because it's a periodic one.. Fork oil needs replacement... Wheel bearings, swingarm bushand cone set are recommended to be greased... Air filter to be replaced too...

      My Review of Yamaha R3 at 100K ODO

      Ride a motorcycle if you want to live free, but above all ride it safe and make others' lives safe.

                  1. Duke 390 -
                  2. RC 390 -
                  3. R3 -
                  4. TNT 300 -
                  5. Ninja 300 -


                  Now you can choose based on your requirement & usage. year ago, we were stuck with either CBR 250, R15 or Duke 200/390 as an option available or only Ninja's costing 4 Lakh or more in the name of premium-ness...

                  Cheers !!!

                  PS _ I own TNT 300...

                  Iam really confused between Tnt 300 AND Yamaha R3....Please help me in deciding any one out of it...

                    Hi Anurag reddy,

                    Even i had this confusion and my final decision was Yamaha R3.

                    Here are some of my personal preference

                    1)U get a killer looking motorbike with gud dash.
                    2) The perfect big bike feel.
                    3) Easy and pocket free maintenance.
                    4)The suspension setup is excellent.
                    5) The most important Gear and clutch is so soft you ll love it.
                    It's bit expensive wn compared to TNT300 but it's definitely worth buying

                        Price diff atleast here in Chennai between the TNT 300 n r3 is just 20-30 k, I'll go for the r3 with my eyes closed.

                            How much they charge for chain cleaning and lubricanting the chain?
                            For me they charged 200 for cleaning and 200 for lubricanting. Is that followed as standard for R3 in all service points?

                              For the cost you mentioned you can buy a Motul chain lube and a cleaner and use it for 5 times atleast
                              No replacement for an engine Displacement

                                It was just 150rs for both here. Although I'd suggest to do this by yourself.
