Didnt do a test drive , but i felt like this bike is only after 11 pm . We cant use this in Bangalore traffic so i cancelled my Dominar booking and booked Apache 200 with pirelli Tyres Matte black.

    I am 78 kgs and i felt the dominar is so heavy to handle but not the case with Apache . I am not sure if i will regret my decision later but for now i am good with my Apache
    I don't think dominar would be that problem in traffic in Bangalore other than mileage if you consider it. I did test drive in traffic, I didn't find any major issue, even other riders says same. Tvs 200 is awesome bike too. Enjoy the ride.

      Today I got so irritated and I can't explain my pain . I saw a strange thing on my tank and I don't know how the hell it happened



      Either some one has hit my bike when I parked or the tank got shrinked or it got expanded . I completed 410 kms . the heat from the engine is unbearable . I am thinking the tank got affected due to the heat from the engine . and I believe we can't fix the tank now . I am going to the service center tomorrow to get it survived irrespective of the kms completed . Also the gear shifting has become so bad . sometimes the gears are stuck suddenly . I feel sometimes like I was given a defect piece by the dealer

      Please suggest what should I do

        I am thinking it is the design of the tank. Because I am also having the same thing and I also thought that somebody banged it while it was parked. We are unable to cross verify because other side the fuel opening is there. Other thing about gear while first servicing tell them about the gear shifting problem it will be sorted out and also after oil change, check the oil level if its proper. Because even less oil can cause the gear problem.

            That's a neat looking console. What's the service interval for the 200V?

                        Got my stead today from SMART TVS,Jubliee Hills.
                        Covered close to 20kms , the bike is quite a charmer, attracting every passer by's attention.

                        DRL was a very lovely feature. I kept fiddling with the switchgear only to be told later that the light is always on.

                        Will post pics once m back home!
                        Race ON!

                          Got the bike delivered yesterday and covered 110kms on the odometer. Gear shifting is so lame. The bike refuses to shift to 2nd and 3rd gear at times and it's happening while in peak hour traffic. I hope this gets resolved after the first service.. changed headlamps to osram night breakers and the front brake has very less feedback. Guys any ideas on improving feedback from the brakes?

                            For the first 5 free services it's like 3k kms but they said 6k kms is the interval.. ✌

                              No the service interval is 3k kms only.

                                Brakes will work fine after some more kms as they too require some run-in. Can you post some pics of your headlight with osram night breaker bulb?
                                Gears will be fine after the first service just complain them about the same.
