          Both are looking just okay. Make the tank clean. Like complete matte without orange stripes(only tank). Then it may look great. Cheers

            Noise in the sense while we accelerating upto 40 KMPH at 4500 RPM, engine is struggling in 2 nd gear

              Not just struggling but at 4k constant a ticking sound from the engine comes in which is evident. This sound is not thr when engine is cold. Only after 5-7km of ride this appears.

                It might be the loose tappets
                It will be more like a sewing machine sound
                If that's the case go to SVC and ask the Mech to adjust the tappets
                This should be done when engine is cold

                    They already changed a lot of parts from my engine so I m sure they would have checked the tappets . Let me give it some time and let the odo cross 2.5k then I'll see if things get better.

                        AFAIK, if its the issue with the clearance of tappets, it won't go until you get that done
                        Let's hope for the best

                          Looks cool. Did you get it removed from SVC or outside

                            All you need to do is pull out the sticker .. it comes out easily. I left the sticker that's close to Honda logo and pulled out the other 2

                                IMHO, the synthetic oil will delay the bedding the engine as it is smoother.Ideally, you should change your oil to synthetic after 5000 kms.
