    Hi,

    This is the absolute best one it seems, https://www.facebook.com/polyvaultsheltersindia/


    Then this one made by Raida also seems to work well for the 650 twins, https://www.amazon.in/dp/B07N8VGYLK/..._kQFzEbW6VCME1

      Thanks.

      I had checked the Raida option; feedback (on this and for RE bikes) seems to be that the covers are a bit tight. The PolyVault options seems fantastic but expensive (5.5k onwards); but I wish there were options in a more affordable range.

        Amazon basic keep an eye on that one it covers everything if not raida then this one.
        I am using local one made like gun bought more than 2 years ago for 400 rs from local market. Azad market Delhi.
        Attaching 2 pics one is of amazon basic shared by someone using it and other is my Sirius under the cover.

          Hi guys,

          Got this from our TN 650 Twins Group.

          Did anyone else also get this information?



          5299 for 4th and 5th year looks like a nice offer. An another one month time is also there to decide on the same. Thinking about getting that.

            They were offering it for other models but not for twins here.

                  Hi everyone, did my first service today and the bike feels peppy and awesome. I noticed during my test drive that the check engine light on the console was lighting up, I took my bike to the service centre and they said it should be fixed after some kms. They connected some diagnostic tool to ecu as well to check if there was an issue. Should I be worried? or light malfunctioning is common after a service?

                    Check engine can light up for a lot of different reasons, from as simple as a disconnected wire and water ingestion to as complicated as critical components failure. The diagnostic tool check up is not at all a thing of concern. It's connected to make sure to check the health of the vehicle, errors if any and clear them. The MIL should turn off once the engine has started, as a thumb rule. If you see the light, light up during riding, it means there is a fault somewhere and it requires the riders attention and should be attended sooner. I'd strongly suggest you give some time reading your owners manual, it's a boon in getting to know modern bikes and warnings and relieves unnecessary tension.

                    Cheers,

                    The girl said, 'NO!'


                    And the guy lived happily ever after and rode motorcycles and watched sport on a big screen TV, went fishing and surfing, and played golf a lot, and drank beer and scotch and had tons of money in the bank and left the toilet seat up and farted whenever he wanted.


                    THE END

                      As vj mentioned , it should not be the case.
                      I suggest to check for lose relay or sometimes water is the cause. Check mains relay and fuel pump relay. I have faced it once ,Mine went away after removing and re fixing the fuel pump relay.
                      Nothing came out wrong in the ecu diagnosis , could also be a sensor error.

                        You must insist that the service centre guys do a proper check. I went to Kaytee in Mahipalpur Delhi for my bike's service and same thing happened when i was leaving. I went right back and they found out it was water seeping into one of the relays near the battery. They tried to clean it but it didnt work and they gave me the same assurance that it'll go away as water dries, I didnt take that and asked them to fix it right away. They then replaced the relay and it was fine.

                          Thanks everyone, got it checked today and they fixed it. I didn't see them doing a lot of things though, some minimal adjustments and the light was off. Also the service center Go green motors in gachibowli provided excellent service. Got bike in a day and they were ready to fix the problems as I brought them to notice. I was very wary of the service center going by the google reviews but it was a pleasant experience.
                          Also the bike likes macho AF with the round headlamps. I wanted to get the fly screen accessory but the look is growing on me. I was also considering getting the X tape on headlight https://www.tripmachinecompany.com/p...-classic-black, what do you guys think ?

                            Re fly screen is waste and very flimsy. Look for carbon racing windshield if u want protection form wind blast.
                            X tape looks good .

                              Hi guys,

                              After ordering them before lockdown initiated, eagerly waited for more than 70 days and received them only 5 days ago after manufacturing resumed, and installed them 2 days back.

                              The ATOM slip-on exhausts from Barrel Exhaust is such an irresistible deal.

                              Not only do they reduce the weight by around 7.4 KG from the stock exhausts, they also sound like an old school motorcycle now, with a growlier rumble. Being made from stainless steel is another bonus.

                              Inspite of not having db killers/baffles, they don't sound too loud(like it's name suggests) and are rather surprisingly less vocal below 4000rpm, and go under the radar easily.

                              From my initial impressions of riding about 200kms, highly recommended for those who want a smaller version of the stock exhaust looks.

                              Cheers!

                                Nice but be aware of cops.
                                Here in delhi ncr today cops at Gurugram inspected parked Motorcycles for modification and fine the ones with illegal mods and also impounded the vehicles.
                                Few got 10k fine for exhaust DB killers doesn't matter.
