      Hi Everyone,

      Just completed 100km on my new bike.

      1. Had some problems in getting the bike into Neutral: Mechanic fixed that.
      2. Reneav had suggested me to keep the bike below 4k rev count: Have been doing that, will do till 1k km.

      Some Questions:

      1. There are lot of vibrations around 5-5.5k rev, is this natural? As a newbie biker, I am not sure of this.
      2. Do you guys use any specific liquid cleaners/protectors to protect the paint-job/plastics and so on? If yes, please do suggest a good product.

        Congratulations!

        Let the engine run in till 1k. Don't just stick to 4k RPM. Vary the RPM steadily. Wax/polish helps for detailing. Carnuba is a good product.
        Got a $5 head? Get a $5 helmet.

        • Abhishek congratulations buddy.

          Keep varying the rpm as mentioned above.

          To protect the paint you have good packages available in 3M and if you want to do DIY then Eagle One, Meguires, Mother's has very good products in the market.

          I use Eagle Washnwax shampoo, Meguires swirl remover, Amway Silicon glaze and Eagle spray wax for my car n Dio.

            [MENTION=62389]Abhishek Nama[/MENTION] , take the above advice on rpm. Finish the run-in if the problem still persists then take it up with the SVC

            For detailing if the eagle one nano wax is available in your area go ahead and use it, never found anything better than that and it's totally worth the money.

            Else go ahead with either mothers or meguiars carnuba wax, currently I use this and it gives great results

              Heard taking the bike for a long ride would have a better run in.. dont remember from where. Is it true??

                I am not sure if it's a fact but I had a great experience when doing it similarly, I finished my run in within 24hours of the bikes delivery, had done a nice run to salem and back though the heat was unbearable at a certain point

                However I don't think there is an added advantage of completing the run in on a single/longer runs than completing it over a period of time, guess [MENTION=32286]psr[/MENTION] sir can throw better light on this


                Edit:
                LOL [MENTION=27501]rreneav1987[/MENTION] sorry hadn't seen the second part, just glad you mentioned toy bikes

                  A Long ride gives a chance to set in properly PROVIDED you keep varying the RPM and shifting gears .....there should be phases when you close the throttle in top gear and let engine slow the bike down...this helps in good ring seal....A short ride or a ride within city with a lot of stops and idling will not let the engine set in correctly....

                    yes, thats exactly what I wanted to convey and I think it was from you [MENTION=32286]psr[/MENTION] sir that I heard about long rides during run in period

                    and yup, what is the point in riding at idle speeds when you have to stop and go every minute...

                              The only thing you can do now is when it reappears, take a video of it and keep it as a proof just when it doesn't happen when you take it to the showroom..

                              tell them it is happening again and after spending all that money, it has gone a waste
