    Thats kool.

    But I guess they need to replace the Air Filter and Oil Filter also in first Servicing (may be I am mistaken).

    So finally the first servicing is over.. So now whats your plan before the second service

      Saw an intruder today while on my way to Bandra. Kept up with the bike all the way from Dadar to Bandra just so that I could get next to it and ogle at the bike! Wondering if it was you? :P

        I am not sure about that, they checked the filter and said it is in mint condition, will crosscheck in the checklist given in the manual.
        After the servicing; rains are a dampener. Lets see when raingods allow me to twist the throttle. I still ride though, albiet slowly

        Just like the famous song - "WASN'T ME". It could have been my friend - Amit who lives in Bandra n works at Worli and also owns an Intruder
        I ride in just 2 weather conditions...
        1.When it rains
        2. When it doesn't

          Thats quite a bit. But then its a "Superbike"

          Oil - 5k

          Labor - 2k

          Riding an Intruder - priceless.

              So expensive services, exhorbitant spares et all are all part of the game

                          Thanks Arun. I have just added a backrest as accessory and that makes it look even bigger and much more comfortable for the pillion to ride as the pillion is always holding on to me for his/her dear life.

                          That it is. If not like god but at least closer to Him.

                                anyways cheers and peace !!!
