I know that am being selfish here,but am hoping someone cancels his booking so that I get it sooner than expected!

uhh... 4-6hrs after booking it.. lol!!! just to rub it in again!!! hehe..

3 days :P , plus 1 day delay thanks to the RTO guys

I deflated the tyre and re filled it with Nitrogen.

But still the issue persists. The Bike vibrates - As though something is in constant touch (or bothering) with the front wheel all the time. The handlebar, fairings and even the foot pegs could feel the vibration and wobbles in slow speeds.

Need your inputs.

@Milan: I got my Ninja the next day after booking (and payment) and RTO registration! You know why too!

Am eagerly waiting for the delivery

Ananth get a stand to keep the front wheel off the ground, and rotate it and see...you may be having either tire or rim run out ie., moving left to right as you rotate....Otherwise you may have to check the front wheel bearing.
Normal air contains approximately 78% Nitrogen

Anant, get it checked at PBK. Could be an issue with wheel balancing/alignment. I dont think its any issue with the bearing or such.

Anybody got this installed?

This is what one of the bikes in bangalore has




But there is a huge gap in the background.

Guys need some inputs regarding storing of the bike for a long period as i will be going abroad for 5 months at least and there will be absolutely no one to start or run the bike. Kindly advise the necessary care to be taken.

^^ You can keep the bike with me I can start and ride it all the time

I recollect Prasanna, the service manager at Blore mentioning that some owners had bought the Koso unit. It costs around 18k for a particular model (not sure which one but these are pretty expensive).

Since the wiring needs splicing which would void the warranty none of these folks installed it yet.

I like the Koso's but i dont want to mess with the electricals and risk the reliability of the bike.

You need a front and rear paddock stand so that the weight of the bike does not rest on the tires. This is to ensure that the tires dont get deformed due to the weight of the bike. If you cant arrange for a paddock then pump extra air into the tires as air will slowly escape from the tires and extra air helps to keep the tires inflated.

Also drain all the fluids like petrol, oil, coolant etc. so they dont clog the pipes. Wash the bike and apply a nice coat of polish and cover the bike with a thick dust resistant cover. Tie the loose ends to the wheels so no one can lift the cover.

Disconnect the battery too.

When you return, ensure you drain any fluid that is still in the bike and top it up with fresh fluids before riding. Battery would need proper charging too. Of course, check the condition of brakes, tires etc before riding out.

@Swaroop: The best thing to do would be to keep this bike at any known and trusted relative/friends place where it would be ridden at least once in a while.
If this is not possible, you can follow n_aditya's advise. To add to it, some good old mechanics will also recommend that after draining out all the oils, you can spray in some high viscosity oil in the block and tap the starter without the plugs. This is to ensure that the cylinder walls are coated with oil.
