Guys a little help needed
can anybody help me the the 250R's booking amount ? how much is it ? how much is the waiting period if I book the bike tomorrow ? and can I book it on my name (I'm 18 btw ) ?
Booking amount is 40K as stated by fellow riders, bike's available within a week in Delhi, so waiting period is not what it used to be

Reason: correction of error
So, how many Ninja have been sold by Bajaj till now? Any idea?
There may not be any alternative to it in its fully faired form, but it seems the viability of this product at this price point seems questionable, if not impossible now with these new proposed launches. Also, Bajaj (for KTM products )and Yamaha won't sit quietly for too long.
Hi Guys, I had a small accident today ...some lady learning to drive a car rear-ended the bike. I lost balance and fell on the right side. At first glance the damage is
1) Rear brake lever damaged (rear brake not functioning now)
2) indicators on the right side damaged, will need to be replaced. The light on the console doesn't blink when the right side indicator is activated
3) Tail panel on the right side damaged...
4) exhaust and faring have scratches.
Any idea how much will fixing 1, 2 and 3 cost? Planning to take the bike to PBK tomorrow...hopefully there is no other damage...
check your front tyre air pressure and adjust a little. other option are all with PBK, that,s they have filled more oil than what is required, the forks will be hard. better to have a PBK check.
Sounds too early for a fork oil topup!! Anyways, if I'm not wrong, it takes some kms before the stiffness disappears. I faced some stiffness when I got the fork oil changed on my R15. But it vanished after a hundred kms.
Also, since they changed the fork oil, it could also be due to a loose steering (nut), if you feel some looseness on the front when just entering a pothole/ hump?
I had this issue until Friday, but got the steering tightened in yesterday's service of my R15. Its perfecto now.
I will wait for a few more kms to see if the issue resolves itself. Thanks.

Sorry to hear that buddy! That hurts. PBK will give you an estimate for 100% replacement of parts no matter however small, so be careful not to opt for that. Just get your tail cover (around Rs. 4000), right indicator and rear brake lever fixed, that will keep your costs low.
What is the extent of the fairing damage? If it is only scratches, go for paint touch-up instead of replacement. I forgot - do you have a green or a black Ninja? If it is a green, I can help you with a small DIY job with an exact lime green paint match. But only if it is a small area.

Sorry to hear that. I only know about these parts.
Indicators : Rs. 1290/- (The non-blinking is normal. Once you replace the indicator, it will start blinking again)
The gear lever was Rs.2200/- odd, so the brake pedal must be in the same range. What kind of damage on the brake pedal? Warped? Bent? Broken?
The lady should have 3rd party insurance (atleast), which should pay for your damages.

Thanks bluevolt... I have a black one, and the scratches are pretty minor so I can live with not getting a replacement... I just hope the electricals are not screwed up... will PM you to get help with the touch up..
I hope the lady is paying up for the parts ! Or the driving school she was driving for !
