        bro, i guess i will be going to the service centre to resolve some minor issues. have noted things down. when i go there, i will ask about the price and will get back to you immediately. if possible PM me your number.

Now i get a doubt if they had actually done that coating prior because i am suffering this problem from day1. thought it would be the dirt or grease from the lever as it is a new bike and didn't bother to peep into the problem. now the problem is going worse and that to if i go to some food court i m intended to hide my left hand as this thing doesn't go easily by washing.

            Also i want to if others are facing the same problem.
            I too have this problem. i dont mind it, but it kinda gets irritating at times. the only solution i could think of is either to wear gloves else, change the lever's to A150's.

            I have changed the clucth lever again. lets see if it continues.

            Its was around 90-110 the last time it was changed in my bike. i think kiran SVC should have stock of it. i'll find out!

              I have purchased the rear fender for Rs.371 ( just the fender without rear num plate light and cover ) , but i didnt get the cover which is above the number plate light . Not getting it anywhere , so the entire fender is lying useless. I can fit it, but the TVS guy said it wont look good without the cover . Will wait for another 1 week, and then install the fender without the cover .

                I guess Renny got this fender for Rs 350 + 50(labour charges)

                I will remove the existing A160's fender and will make a DIY fender eliminator.Lets see how it turns out!

                • 600rs includes everything, rear fender, flap, no plate light, frnder bracket, reflector and bolts.

                  Changing the fender is such a pain in the ass! becareful when ur fixing it. you might end up cracking the rear panels. My left rear panel and middle panel gave way after abt 3 months coz if was fixed improperly!

                      @ SVC. they should have it. I had to wait for the bracket for 1 month. Ask them to install it.

                        Go ahead and get the fender fitted, it wont look bad, i rode my bike without the num plate cover and reflector for almost 5 months.

                        You dont need any bolts, bracket or other things.
                        the existing ones are direct fit.
