        Yeah you can , but the shine will last only for 2 or 3 days and it s not usefull as it only makes the bike shinier, put waxpol caranuba wax i.e the scooter polish the wax stays longer and it will protect it from dust and water.
        Sure magga. Thanks.

                Yes,you can get it done.Its called 'parking lights'.I had done this in my bike.Any mechanic can do that.Requires a switch and a couple of wires.I had inserted this switch in the console by drilling a hole in it.In the same way,as like that ABS on/off button.This way it looks neat and clean.Plus dont have to worry about water damaging the wires.

                  • Ok Guys, got My bike serviced today. Unfortunately had to go with the TVS oil as couldn't find even a single shop in the area where I live!!
                    But the positive point is that, bike just asks for more and more speed each time I ride Her and I certainly oblige!!
                    ALthough I have done My first servicing, My 1000km are not done yet. So should I still keep it under control at 50 or go for speed upto 70?

                        keep it below 50 till 1000... you will not regret it..

                              I just got a message in evening , sc was closed by that time , I will call up tomorrow, it also said they are giving away apache caps (dont know if its a freebie) nothing else in message.
                              @pranav: take it to sc da, get it checked for a/f ratio and get air filter cleaned , not sure if it will correct the issue.
                              @mirhawk: chill maadi take it there slowly now you shift at 4k rpm isnt it ? after ~1k shift at 5k and so on , dont ride constantly at 70s not good for engine with mineral oil.

                                ya!!! had been to this Event last year... Must say it was great time watching the bikes!!!! But keep in mind to reach at least an hour early than the scheduled time to get a seat
                                U need passes only to hav a seat and watch.. and it was a max. of 100-150 seats or may be even less
                                I too got that msg last year.. but never collected mine though.. as my cousin's place was quite close to the event location.. had to stand for the whole time..
                                EXACT LOCATION : take a Right at Nagwar signal and head straight till Thanisandra.. Take a left from Thanisandra bus stop (a huge banyan tree i suppose) It's very close to Actor Shivaraj kumar's place
