    Hell Yeah! We Must

    This has been on my mind alllll the time, never came out. Was never sure if the idea would click coz I know everyone would be pretty busy in their own terms.

    Always fascinated to ride with some 10 white apache and in total around 50 apaches together...ah thats so mouth watering.

    Got a bill that has to be submitted to united India insurance, will take a picture and upload it tonight

      Ditto my friend! I hope the Bangalore boys respond to this. It would be amazing if this happened. I'm sure we could all take time off for a small rtrg2g!

          On next service tell the SVC guys to lessen vibrations and the mechanic, give him some 100bucks n tell him to loosen all nuts n bolts and tighten 'em back. It will reduce the 'vibes' of ur bike
          And try motul 300 oil

              Oh dude! 29!!! That's a little overkill no!? Take your ride to the svc and tell him this! Ask him to check everything that might be causing this. Tune the bike for better mileage. 29 is preposterous! With the worst abuse you can expect atleast 30-35 from the bike!

                    I'm due for second service in three weeks bro. I'm getting a mileage of approximately 45-48kmpl. Maybe you need to time down the speed for a while. Your bike is still new and engine was just broken in. Take things slowly. If you are bent on doing constant 120kph on your ride atleast get a better oil. Shell ultra or ax7 will atleast keep the engine a little safe!

                      Compared the prices on your list to the ones on mine. Everything Seems to be in order. One advice: DEMAND for a return of ALL the replaced parts. Especially the fork assembly, disc and parts that can be fixed with some work on the lathe. I got cheated last time. They charged me for a new fork assembly but actually just removed the bend in my fork and returned it. Be very vigilant regarding such things.

                        All prices seems fine.
                        Which SVC's estimate is this ? Usually SVC s will over estimate when insured as they assume that insurance wala will pay for everything.
                        When I had my first accident bill estimated was 3k, but due to some reasons I couldnt claim insurance, and they re-estimated it for 700, as not all parts needed replacement.
                        Look out for any thing that can be salvaged.

                        BTW how did this happen ?
