    Have you been to IBW before. I heard it's more of a Harley show than anything else. I was so disappointed that I cancelled the plans.

    Sunday ride sounds perfect though
    Cheerio!
    Ride safe \m/

                How do you manage using the indicators... While turning right, it's OK... It's really a pain while turning left.

                Do you accidentally step on the rear brake?

                Are you done with your run in?
                Hi Vicky,

                Indicators.. they are working fine like any other bike. No problems while turning left..

                I have a habit of keeping my toes on the foot peg while riding on the highway. I use the lever when feel the need to apply brakes... and never step on to it accidentally.

                Yes Run In is still goin on. Clocked 1400 Kms ... Done with 1st service only yet. Hardly 3 weeks for my Beast..

                I m just facing Buzzing sound from the console and the engine feels rough as of now and the suspension is very Stiff and hard.. even a slight bump on the Road is Felt.... Shifted it to Softer setting during the first service, little better post service.

                Nothing else apart from it..

                Cheers!

                            • Recommended service centre in Mumbai for my Suzuki Swish?

                              Hello all!

                              I own a 2014 Suzuki Swish. My usage really isn't much as I have just touched the 6000 KM mark after almost 16 months of riding. But that's mainly cause I travel a lot for work, so that bike doesn't get used that often. I do enjoy the occasional long-ish ride on it though.

                              I have been giving the bike for servicing to one of the Suzuki authorized service centres which shut down. So I wanted to know if it is advisable to find another ASC or I could give the bike to some other service centre that other scooter owners would recommend.

                              Thanks in advance.

                              KV.
