    Thats a good info there mate..Please share it on V1 and V2 threads too.

    Do you have any more info on this topic? I mean apart from brake pads what else was covered in this raid. Yamaha Riders is in camp right?

      Yup the one in Camp. I remember when I had the FZ16 I had a terrible experience with them. The chaps there were always very casual even when working. Somehow didn't like their overall attitude. Once I saw them washing my bike chain with soap and water AFTER they had lubed it. This was 4 years ago so don't remember exactly all the details. But I stopped going to them after my 2nd Free service. On the other hand Monarch Auto was a great experience right from servicing to delivery.

      Very True- "Motorcycling is not, of itself, inherently dangerous. It is, however, extremely unforgiving of inattention, ignorance, incompetence, or stupidity."

      I like- "Bikes are not supposed to be a rational decision. If you can park it and walk away without looking back to admire it, you got the wrong one."

        • Words of caution

          For the guys coming on the sunday ride: The only fixed timing is the time of departure. There's no saying what time we'll reach which waypoint. We could be back before 6 in the evening or post 9 in the night.

          This is quite normal for us

            Many of my friends had the same complaints even same was with monarch yamaha too, now it seems they have improved but also heard they still use some bad policies to make money, afterall dealer is sitting to mint money than why will he care for customers.

                  Monarch Yamaha on Tilak road. I used to do regular servicing there (now I'm in Mumbai) & I was pretty much satisfied with them. No nonsense.
                  The only glitch (which I hated the most), you need to schedule the visit, no walk in. Give them a call.
                  Or else try Factory Shop.
                  thanks buddy

                            Call 'em up and tell them to deliver at the office!! Whats the issue?

                            @Mr.Mokashi, just for everyone's knowledge, BAL SVC is NOT at Lal Chowk. It is in Munawar (2.5-3 km from Lal Chowk). Goes by the name Paris Automobiles.

                            Going to the other side, there is no BAL SVC in Manali or Kullu or Leh. The first SVC is in Mandi, Himachal Pradesh on Sundarnagar road, over 1000km away from Srinagar SVC .
