    I too get similar kind of sound but only sometimes that too only when 40 KM/h+


    Btw, what is recommended interval to change Oil?

    First oil was changed at ~700KMs, now it is at ~3500KMs and only 2 services have been done, without Oil TopUp.
    Initially I was getting some vibration sound when at 20/25kmph speed but it goes once we cross 30kmph. This problem got over after running 1000kms...

    They recommend (also the manual says), Oil change in the 1st Service (500-750kms), 3rd service & 5th Service. Oil top up during 2nd & 4th Service.

    For me they replaced the oil in the last (3rd) service, eventhough the speedo shown 1258kms), and now (4th service),they did top-up.

      My first service was at ~700KMs, second was at ~2600KMs..
      They did change oil at first but didn't top up at second. Service Guy was reluctant, just tightened few screws and washed in second service.

      Now third service is due at ~5600 or in next 70 days, whichever is earlier.

      My scooter vibrates for initial 10KMs. The vibration reduces at 40KMs but when compared with Suzuki Access it feels much more. That's why I guess it has to do with oil change. Also the sound coming from the bottom of scooter. It makes sound like some metal part is stuck. (Like if you put metal wire in bicycle tyre spokes and rotate the tyre, the similar sound) I did report it to the service guy. The sound disappeared for 2-3 days, but again showed up.

        When you go for next service, as them to check center stand as if it is lose then also possible to produce unwanted sound. It was the case for me now the sound has totally gone (atleast for now..!).

                      your issue is vague, what do you mean by jerk when moving from stationary? However there can be jerks for many reasons as follows:

                      1. Try adjusting throttle cable for better throttle response.

                      2. Adjusting idle rpm.

                      3. Oil change and clutch adjustment.

                      4. Cone set adjustment and wheel alignment/ check for wheel bend.

                        I meant the "Thada thada" sound it produces when moving from stationary. Will ask the service center person to check.
