Now again I ride my pulsar daily to office (32+ kms ). I own a May 2003 model of pulsar - the first one that came out in the market.I am very happy with it having ridden some 60K+ kms on it mostly in the city as I am not much of highway rider. I am facing some peculiar issue with front disc brake.After getting the brake oil changed last year in Jan, the disc brake jams the front wheel sometimes - The brake handles goes stiff and is almost unmovable as if there is no room for movement of disc pads.Though I got it to service station many times they are not able to figure out the issue - they do the usual stuff changing brake oil (due to some air getting in) changing brake pads etc etc but all this has not helped.I got it serviced from popular motor and after lots of convincing they agreed to look and fix the issue.They kept the vehicle for 2 days but alas the very next day i faced the problem again.Took the vehicle back to them, they again kept it for 2 days got the disc pad & some disc kit changed which in total costed me 600 rs but I again faced the issue the very next day.Now the problem is so severe that every morning on the way to office the wheels gets jammed. Any pointer as to why this is happening.I am also facing chain rolling (near the engine) when i try to speed up - this again is not fixed by them though told repeatedly.Also, I would like to escalate this issue with senior people in Bajaj as I feel the service center guys have done a perfunctory job and charged me for changing unnecessary things.In total I paid 3K for service in Dec 2008(which included engine head cleaning) but I don't see that big a difference in my bike before and after service.In fact, I strongly feel the more I get it serviced from them the more sooner I had to go back to them for the same issues. My motive is not to defame them ( though I would not recommend Popular motors service in Bangalore to anyone) but I am really facing this problem for the last one year and off late it has become everyday issue and I would like get this problem resolved once and for all.So guys any pointers would be very helpful. Cheers -Amit PS: In case any of you face similar issue, the quick solution is to drain some brake oil out by opening the valve attached to the brakes on the disc brakes - I do this whenever the wheels get jammed and have brought a spanner for it.
