    So i booked the white version , and the delivery will be within 2 days
    Pls give me suggestion on pre - delivery inspection, and what all things need to be checked before taking delivery

    I have 1 more question,

    Is it advisable to take the bike to a long ride ( 280km) within one day of delivery if i keep the bike in rev limit , vary revs accordingly , and give proper breathing time of 15 to 20 min at every 60 to 80 km??
    I have started with 327 km on very Next Day after delivery and gone for service on 3rd day itself at 587 Km . But u have to keep some patience for run-in Period. Domi is worth .

        Do it it would be a great ride just keep varing the rpm and try not to go beyond 100kmph or keep it to 5k or under. It would do just fine. Take break every 1hr. And to be on safe side keep coolant with u as new bikes are filled with lesser quantity and a new engine tends to consume more. Or just get it topped up to the max mark before ur trip. For the initial 100kmph try keeping it at 4.5k heck i took it to 5k on the first day itself.
        And go for an early service as soon as u hit 500kmph.

            Hey bro,
            I must admit that the breakin procedure is nearly impossible during long drive bcz eventhough speed varied the rpm was almost constant.
            So i did the procedure of varying rpm in the initial 25km. Then took the ride as usual.
            But kept the rev limit to 4.5 k and speed less than 90kmph. After pdi , i actually checked almost everything on the bike (took around 1 hr for self inspection😋😋😂 as ramchalla explained)

            The coolant level was at max before starting the ride , reached the destination sound and safe.
            Domi is also fine , it was an amazing ride with her.💐😍.

            Gave 15 min breathing time every 60 to 80 km

            Ride safe |: obey rules
            Thank you

                Hey pals ,
                Can anybody help us contacting a bajaj headoffice person regarding our issues..
                We in our state are facing a lot of issue with our bike and with the service guys also..
                Whenever we open up our problems with them they behave as if the company has'nt given them proper training..
                We are from bhubaneswar , odisha our service centres are vianayak bajaj and bharath bajaj..
                Me n my group members are facing a power lag issue and vibration from all the edges of our bike..
                As we have heard here in our forum that power lag gets solved after the new update , we asked them to update ours and there reply was that bajaj told us to testride each bike and if the power lag happens then only the software will be updated.. in no ways they agree to update our bike and spares availablity are a serious matter , as a friend of mine is waiting for a bolt which they said will be available after 1 and half month..
                So for this issuea we need to contact any such person who must be having some knowledge.. as i have done a mail regarding this to bajaj and there is no reply from them..
                Kindly help us.. thanx in advance..

                  It should be 8.5k , the light should glow at 8.5k rpm irrespective of older or new ecu. And once the light glows u can feel the power cut but it can go till 9k with a modulated throttle.
                  If u are facing any lag or power loss or missing get the ecu updated . Otherwise ask for it when u go for service.
                  New ECU map is made available post 17th April.

                        Try to specify the service centre Name and address. You may also call up the call centre and follow up for updates.

                              Look at this video's 1st and second comments.
                              Bajaj has replied to this video with contact details.

                              Best of luck. Hope your issues will be sorted out soon.🤗🤗
