I am not able to transfer my bike from Mumbai to Kolkata.
Apparently, BS3 bike cannot be registered here officially.
What a bummer !

Anyone else face this situation...?..Don't want to sell my bike...

Hi Friends,
If you recollect I had posted this (see above) earlier.

Finding that there is no way out and not wanting to let go of my bike I got the bike transported to Kolkata and the transporter messed it up.

I got an initial estimate from the service centre and its for Rs. 86k..for some reason they want to replace the frame as well...I am not sure the insurance will cover all of this expenses...
I am pretty sure that there is nothing wrong with the frame..the bike runs straight without any problems even when I let go handle grips when its coasting...

wondering if I should get a second opinion...
attaching a few pics

regards,
Jawed

Changing frame just because bike dropped while it was parked?
Dosent look logical.

exactly...though it was not simply dropped in parking...it fell down in the transport truck and was carried for some days in the truck in that condition..

I can't make out any difference in the bike handling..but the SA is certain that the bike is pulling to one side...was checking with the service centre..and they say that the frame will take 10-12 weeks to come...if its ordered now.

I will wait for the insurance survey to be over and then take a call..

regards,
Jawed

You can re-use the barbeque grill to make Saddle Bag stays on either side!
Do keep you posted about the sliders, spools purchase.

Also, do research about Running In.
