    Hardly matters!
    Its always said that if one is short in height, s/he should put one foot fully flat on the ground to take the weight of the bike, depending upon the conditions prevailing at that point of time and keep the other foot on the brake/clutch lever.

    Tip toe-ing on both feet is NOT recommended!
    Got a $5 head? Get a $5 helmet.
    Because everyone who passes, isn't a martyr!

        I think I have seen this Unicorn with CBS (No rear disc) and dealer was quoting the price ~91k on road.
        While standard Hornet is 94K which is comparatively better option considering Fat Tyre and looks.

                I wanna ask you something about the bike:

                1. That rear fender, is it possible to remove it? I want to be able to install a custom tail tidy for it.
                2. Are both the headlights and tailights running on AC or is it just headlight? Does the Showroom have option for DC conversion?
                3. Is it possible to install a bigger capacity battery?

                    Congrats @Ayns.

                    I did first bike servicing. Engine feels more smoother.
                    Asked for seat cover but no update yet.

                      Can you check under the tail section see if the fender is screwed into it?

                            Hi bro. I have honda unicorn 160. After 1st servicing my bike feels bit more sluggish. Actually they put honda mineral oil costs 310rs. For your bike which oil they put. And what is the cost of that oil.

                              For me it's he same, 310rs. I will update if I notice sluggishness.
                              I am not satisfied the way they did servicing @Harmony Honda, Near BHEL. Bike was not cleaned properly, I have to asked them to clean it again.
                              It's seems they have high volume of bike to be serviced and have very less space. They also put the bike outside, beside road after servicing.

                              Anyone know Honda bike service center near Hitech City. I want to try at different place next time.

                                Let me give you an advice. Try to wash your bike yourself or take it to a local washer where you can supervise the process. The SVC people wash multiple bikes at the same time, they are really not bothered about how they wash it. Its important to preserve the paint, something that they will not care about.

                                So wash the bike yourself and then take it to the SVC. Then tell them not to wash the bike and start the service procedures.

                                Also Anoop, can you please check below the tail section of your bike and see whether the rear fender is screwed in and whether it will be easily removable?

                                Thank you
