    Regarding that crrrr sound from the rear, Duet also had that same sound in lower speeds that is in between 10 to 25 kmph. Once the scooter goes above 30 kmph, it will be smooth without any rattling or vibrating sounds. I found the reason lately. The culprit was the rear number plate and the rear mudguard. Both were touching each other and thus the crrrr sound. You can insert a small rubber piece or a small piece of cardboard in between them. After some 3000 km, you can remove that as the engine will be opened up and the vibrations would've disappeared by then.
    I have inserted a rubber eraser between number plate and mudguard (kept two pieces in right and left side), the sound is now almost nil - Nice idea Jeswin.!!

      Have you completed first service bro?. Engine should get smoother after first service.

        No No, 1st service due on 7th of June (but in the manual they have wrongly written as 29th May. I have booked the scooter and paid full amount on 7th March and Invoice date also 7th March) i.e 60 days or 600kms, whichever is earlier, from the date of purchase.

        I have driven the scooter yesterday night (first time night drive since delivery) and found the headlight is very powerful (High or low) comparing my Wego (its only my opinion please).!

          Last time I have filled up 3 liters of petrol and the scooter ran 120 kms (with fuel gauge showing only one bar) which means now the scooter gives around 40kmpl. Big improvement than the last time. Hope the fuel economy will improve further when it run more and more kms. Today, again filled up 2.94 L (Rs.200) speed petrol and will see how much it will get.!!

            Amazing bike congrats on your new purchase bro.

            The fuel tank cover very cleverly covers up and it doesnt show that there actually is a fuel filling provision. The single.key single hole operation for ignition handle lock boot and fuel looks amazing.

            Whats the on road price of this bike

                Thats good comes to around 64000/-. Thats the price for my TVS Jupiter (purchased last week on road - price). My friend is looking to buy a bike and yesterday while roaming just hopped into a hero showroom at 07:00 pm they were enthusiastic to offer test ride at 07:00 pm and explain the features. They had a special demo vehicle which according to them had run 800 kms , but vehicle vibrated a lot, engine vibration passed on to handle when it started from 0-05 kmph, after 05-10kmph it became normal, when we enquired with them they told its normal in all vehicles, and the vehicle is not serviced and run a lot. Do you feel the vibration at handle at extremly low speeds or while starting from 0 kmph / stationery position which then stops once you reach speed of >5kmph. Vehicle is awesome and i checked the features on the real model. Its a breeze to operate the single keyhole. Closest competitor to TVS Jupiter. Literally felt that should have bought Hero Maestro Edge. I have recommended him Maestro Edge over Jupiter (For Side Stand indicator, Immobilizer Key, Boot Light, USB Charger (from company itself, my Jupiter just has provision only)). Price diff of fully loaded version of jupiter & maestro edge in chennai is just 300-400 rs.

                  Yes, the vibration at low speed is there and what I understand is that it will go after couple of services or once the engine become smooth (may be after running 500kms or more...?). But it is smooth and comfortable after 30/35km speed..!!

                      -Still time for 1st service
                      -Braking & handling is very good
                      -Engine performance : Scooter is still like new one. Only 220km so far (it is used for shopping purposes and Car is being used for other family outings and functions etc). Engine will get smooth only after running good mileage...!

                        My Maestro edge Ran 600 km until now. Recently i have filled 1 ltr petrol for checking actual mileage. It was ran out at 52km (17 km in city+35 km in hhighway with the speed around 35-45 kmph). Slight vibration is there in handle bar in very lower speeds especially in initial acceleration.

                            Ya... 1st service was over around 500 km ODO.
                            Still i want to know about the Reserved Fuel capacity. I bought Maestro Edge for my Dad. And also i am not in my home town. So i am not able to check it.

                              According to Owners manual each bar of the fuel gauge equal to one litre petrol. So, when you see the last one bar which means the tank will have one litre petrol remaining but once the bar started blinking we should be ready to refill the tank immediately.!

                                No bro. I think that may be a false info(approximate)... Actually we need to check it in real time
