      Just increase the number of vendors per city and see how things progress. In Vadodara Harshil motors is the only vendor and they are looting public left and right as far as spare parts pricing goes.

      EDIT: Funny thing is, you can negotiate with this guys and at-least save 300 - 400 rupees.

          Nothing new, have you been to Hero Honda service center ? They are nothing less than our politicians

          EDIT: Yes, i am from Baroda.

              If they do come with a winner I'll cancel the booking tomorrow.
