Cone set issue. Surprised to know that it's on a new bike. To be on the safe side get the front forks alignment checked too.
Also while braking, ensure the bike is dead straight and not tilted.


Sent from my phone. Kindly avoid it while riding.

twice while braking I experience skidding. One at the signal where it was covered with gravel as I mentioned. Another while turning when a cyclist came against me while exactly turning and I lost control of the bike while pressing both the brakes for a sudden stop. And then some throttle and wheel spin also happened. I was thinking that it was due to the bad tyres. The signal incident should be definietely due to bad tyres as I was almost at standstill.

Practice braking! Tires are important but in most cases, we are at fault. Use the front brakes MORE than rear brakes!

My bike tends to go towards right if I set it up straight and release my hands from the handle bar. It happens in all speed ranges. Tested with other apaches and they are fine without this issue. My bike is due for the first service. Is it a problem and what should I tell the SVC guy to correct, if so?

The bike seems to vibrate with irregular intervals. Like it vibrates once in 4k rpm in 3rd and 4th gears but the next couple of times it doesn't. Around 250km on odo and the bike pulls smoothly in all gears. Took the bike twice in 60-70 kmph range when the roads I rode on were lil free. The posture seems to be a bit tiresome but I referred to the manual and found that the handle bars can be adjusted. I think its given only for the width of the handle bars. Is it possible for the height? The tyres gave me heart breaks twice while braking on uneven road surfaces with the gravels loosely coming out of the road. To my shocking surprise this happened once at signal where I was rolling the bike at 5-6kmph to adjust between the vehicles around me. The front wheel went to the right when I braked at almost standstill at that signal. I am getting used to the bike and I feel it will be alright after first service.

Initially I filled 9.5 litres fuel and the tank still appears good with fuel. I do not believe the fuel level indicator. It has just reduced only by 1 bar and I feel its deceptive. I opened the fuel tank to check and I can feel a lot of fuel inside moving. But the SVC people say the fuel level is good enough and I can top up at the worst only when the indicator shows reserve.

Yes, please mention in the service center about the handle bar swerving issue.

And didn't you get the Remora tyres? I am really loving both the grip and the look of the tyres, they are extremely confidence inducing in my case.
and since my bike is the ABS version I don't really have to worry about a lot of Skids, that said the tyres are quite decent for our daily commuting.

Get the RPM to 8-9 once before the service.
Even I feel the fuel bar is faulty, its perpetually in 1 bar for me but I just had 50km mileage !

I would say you try the tyres on different terrains. It works well on normal roads. I have the ABS too and it works depending on how I'm speeding. Like with sudden starts and brakes when I hit the lever hard, it worked thrice preventing my front wheel from touching the vehicle before. I love everything else about the bike except for the vibration which has become more nowadays and the painful seating at times.

You hate Tires, Vibrations and Seating position. I am seriously thinking, Why you even like the bike!!!!!.
Dude, give it the time. Even 1st servicing is not complete. And you are not riding your bike frequently. Do a thing, go for a 100 Km ride before the 1st servicing. Connect with your bike. Then tell me.

I sure will do. Since its the first bike I'm owning I feel the tyres on the herohonda and suzuki max 100 which I used to ride were doing better :P I love the bike because it looks so good and it gives me adrenaline rush. It's easy for me to handle it and its economical too. I am determined to find the suitable seating posture with time B) And I have no clue why its vibrating more nowadays. Regarding tyres, I am clueless too. I'll get used to it too. And I don't hate any of those . It's new to me and other bike owners complain least about such troubles.

Is the front disc brake rotor covered under warranty? Mine has pretty bad scratches on it and has lost thickness at the point where brake pads come in contact with the disc rotor. I asked at one svc, he said disc rotor is a wear and tear part hence not covered under warranty. I've not heard of disc rotor undergoing wear and tear such that it loses most of its thickness within 20k km. Brake pads have always been changed well within the wear limit.
So is it covered under warranty?

You mentioned yours is an ABS version right. How did the bike skid ? I have tried a few times, never had a skid till day unless it was extremely sandy and handlebar was very cross.
