FZ has its own problems.
- Cant modify anything on it. cant even think of adding aux light, for highway rides.
- Expensive parts.
- Tappet noise seems to be the norm of it.

There is another product which is ~15K cheaper and promises
- Cheaper spares
- More power
- Cheaper maintenance costs.
Its the NS200, which again has some problems.
- EuroSlips tires

Thinking of these. Don't know when i will take the plunge and buy one.

Guys anyone can help me here please...

I am looking for a test ride in chennai. DP motors in tambaram doesnt have test ride bike neither they have stock of new models. According to dealer it will be bought in based on order. I tried calling few other numbers in google all of them landed in service center and none of them were helpful in providing a contact number for sales.

Mojo owners please help me identifying dealers in chennai with test vehicle with them...

Good evening riders.
I've been in Vizag for 2 years, bought my mojo here 3 months ago.. Clocked 2900 km as on date. I've been transferred to Kochi and I'm scheduled to move in Jan. I initially planned to make the journey by my car, however now I've decided to make the trip on the mojo. It's about 1500 km. Haven't done such a long ride on a bike before. I would need suggestions for you all on the journey, route, gear etc. Would be of great help. Thanks in advance.

Hi Tribes(wo)men,


A prospective buyer here and really hoping the Mojo dream becomes reality.


I hate how the manufacturers, nowadays, replace metal with plastic parts to make bike light and fast (!); even the fuel tank enclosure is no exception.
With Mojo, though, as eccentric as I thought it looked in the beginning, I am willing to take the plunge. But, there are a few troublesome questions and I request your help.


I think some/many of the questions are covered here and there throughout the threads and I'm still putting them forth for the latest views.


Suitability: I'm in early Thirties, 5-foot and 9 inches tall, with a slender build (less than 70 kg). I am a sedate rider (Just as Captain Slow from "Top Gear"). My daily commute is 75 kilometres in Mumbai, consisting of bad quality, pothole-filled roads. Some respite may be provided for about 25% of the travelling distance, where there is freedom to speed. There may be an occasional weekend ride with the wife. Given the mostly hot and humid weather, is it worth considering the Mojo, in terms of the mileage, durability and pillion room?


The price: Most important point, perhaps! Honestly, I have been thinking of buying a bike, since before Mojo was launched; however, I couldn't just 'settle' with a Pulsar or Gixxer or Hornet or Unicorn, because the "money-to-comfort" equation never matched (KTMs are not my cup of tea). I would by Fazer 150, if it weren't for the puny tank capacity and felt the price tag was too much for its features. Costing INR 220000 (or more), although Mojo's worth its price, this is going to be the second largest investment of my life and there's obvious resistance from the 'folks'. It's almost the same price one would pay for a small car and hence they are not really supportive. To be blunt, is the investment worth ignoring them?


Durability/Reliability: I don't like changes, am still using a Third generation iPod touch device (that I bought in 2009). So, can I trust Mojo to be my companion even after my child completes their high school (which is not going to be for another 13 years)?


Resale: If I am being rude or ridiculous or out of line, please excuse me. But, just in case I accumulate debts and need to sell my assets including the beloved Mojo, can I rely on it to fetch some of the investment back?


Modifications: I am keen on adequate visibility at night, clean (read "mud-free") rear for pillions and less/no heat directed at the rider. I gather from the posts that there may be more than normal heating experienced in slow traffic and fog lamps are highly recommended. If I instead replace the stock headlights with more powerful ones (perhaps LEDs), what is the maximum power rating it can take before straining/damaging the battery?


Service: I know many owners travel more distances. For me, the nearest service centre is 25+ kilometres and I'd like to know if the servicing takes overnight. I mean, like in a Hero or Honda station, there are tenths of bikes coming in for servicing every day, which means the wait is more. Does it take long to complete the routine service for Mojo?


Only these for now; if I think of more, I'll come back later.

Hello bro...

I am shocked to hear this regarding the test drive vehicle.

Actually, 3 or 4 months back I took the test ride of the mojo on the same showroom which is in sanitorium. That time, one of the showroom/service person has taken the bike somewhere and the showroom person have asked to wait till it comes. To our luck, that guy took the bike back in 10 mins. Then proceeded with the test drive for 20 mins atleast due to the love and feel when I rode it for the first time. Try and pressurize him for the test drive bike, because in chennai we only have one showroom for Mojo and you cannot get the test ride back anywhere.

Hope this helps.

Happy Biking !!

Sathish (gsknocks) gave me few contact numbers, but before i could call them DP motors called me for a test ride. Gonna do that tomorrow. Looks like Sathish spoke to Karthik in mahindra and he personally called me to arrange for test ride. Overwhelmed already by the service from Mahindra. And thank you Sathish for the help.

That is really great. Karthick from mahindra is a nice guy. When I had doubts about going with Mojo, he called me personally and explained all the doubts I have and we nearly spoke for good 40 mins.

There are bunch of nice guys in mahindra to support with the issues which we have. No matter if is a small doubt or a big one.

Go ahead tomo, spend some time with the bike and feel it by yourself. I test ride bike which I rode was a first gen mojo which is a red and white model, not sure whether they have the same bike for test ride even now, if it is so, dont be amazed with the poor brake response from the bike, it has all been sorted out now with the newer model and the seat has also been expanded unlike the older model. So have fun.

And do me a favor if possible, when I inquired, the OR price of the bike is 2L for standard edition and 2.20L for the tourer edition. Get me the current quote and paste it here if possible.

Thanks in advance bro. Have fun.

Happy Biking !!

Update on test ride.
Had a very short test ride today. Unfortunately by the look of the bike didnt feel like riding though. Oil dripping from the pistion head was the first sight. Anyway...took it half hearted and found gear shifting hard, bike just vibrates in every gear. Loved the seating and the pick up aggressive after 4.5k rpm mark. Bit disappointed, DP motors informed me that the test ride bike was bs3 model and it is from 2014 model. I understand these are common issues in all the test ride bikes, but whats worrying is this bike just went for service last friday. Which makes me worry how the quality of service will be. On the otherhand i also tried dominar, did exactly the same distance ( both mahindra and baja are few meters apart). Bike felt smooth and easy. But it heats like hell. Now confused. Have 2 weeks to decide, which one of these beauty will be mine.
