It will definitely protect the paint AND stickers. The first to go are the stickers. Paint takes longer. Because there's no lacquer, the edges are exposed. Dust will get into the edges, making them peel. If the bike's been in the sun long enough, the glue will have hardened and the peeled-off bit might break off leaving the rest of the sticker intact. Or it may just keep peeling. A nightmare scenario which i'm going through right now. One major spot is the tank stripe just behind the cap on the left. About an inch or two of the edge (about 2mm wide) has peeled and broken off.
But, be warned, you will loose the matte finish and it will be super glossy and shiny. I'm not sure but i think using a rough grinding paste AFTER lacquering, would give a kind of matte finish. That's the theory anyway.

Chain spray has a perfect consistency, unlike any ratio of oil/grease mixed with kerosene. Almost like a thicker wd-40. I haven't used it here, but in muscat. Some american brand, not 3m. And the chain still looks lovely. Just have to wipe off the non-mating parts.

^^What he said! Cheers mate.

How about a spray of WD-40 only???

WD-40 is not a lubricant. It stands for Water Displacement#40!!

It is used to replace water and moisture from the metallic surfaces threby reducing the chances of rust/corrosion. And there is a highly debatable rumour/fact that the compound used in WD-40 could possibly dissolve the lubricants present inside the O-rings.

You can use WD-40 for cleaning purposes only but not solely for lubing.

Try the new Tru 4 chain spray from TVS, should work well coz its meant for the RTR only.

Yes, I have seen the same in the SVC. What should be the frequency of usage?

But that thing is really good for the switches and ignition.
Man i'am happy with the dry chain even if it takes the life by 5000kms..

i'll lube it in rains to save it from rust, till then i'am running it dry.

Guys tell me something, whenever you go for servicing your bike at the svc or with some problems, do they ask you to keep your bike for a day at least? Or do they do the needful while you wait at the svc at hand over your bike after that?

heheh still facing problem with u r svc guys those saha guys are really lazy a** need 3 days to service 8 bikes it is better to complain to higher authority at least they deserve that

Nops, not never.

Unless you visit the service after 2-3P.M or you have some major problem/work to be done. They should not keep the bike's meant for free services for overnight job.

I have sent an email to TVS. They have replied back by saying sorry for the incovenience caused and asked me for the registration number and the dealer name. I think TVS will now take some steps I have also mentioned about your dissatisfaction with the svc. Lets see what they do.

Yes thats how it should be done. But the svc here is so damn lazy and indifferent. Whoever comes for servicing or with some problems, they ask him to leave his bike. It doesnt matter to most of the customers but it does to me if i cant ride my bike for even a day. Hence i complained.

The best way to avoid this is to make a sc guy your friend, and i still recommend to find a good mech out there after getting your free services donr from the Showroom.

Hi Guys..!!

Recently I went to Service Center due to that self start problem i mentioned about a month back or two...(Can't make if earlier due to personal reason which made my bike just standing in garage for a month..)

Problem: Self-Start making BANG sound at the time of startup..

1st Day at Service Center: Went in told him the problem and then he asked another person to confirm the parts and all...

He told me to go and register the complain. I asked him what was the problem, he said that something about one-way clutch and about changing frywheel. (now please tell me if there are any parts inside the bike like this and all..!! ) He told me that they will change it...
Then i went to register my complain and he said that there are enough bike for today inside the service center so I may come tomorrow.

2nd Day at Service Center: As told to me the day before, went to svc and the guy there ONE MORE TIME refused to take the bike and telling to come once again tomorrow..!!

3rd Day at Service Center: Went there and left my bike there at morning 10. And took it back at 4. And poof!! The problem was gone...but..!! a new problem arised..! My Tachometer...it is working fine till 4-5k reading and then it starts rushing very fast...I mean when i accelerate to about say 7k the tacho would be showing about 11k

Any suggestions what can be done of that...???
