Hi Pugs, Yesterday my Stormy turned 4. Day before yesterday gave it for 13th paid service excluding the 4 free services. Some of you know that it was an upgrade from Pulsar 150. It was worth every penny & I still don't find a reason to change this bike as I did 4 years ago. I like to thank this group for making me take such a wise decision. I like to share some of the details here.
First lets see what BAL paid for my bike(warranty). 1. Speedometer 2. Side stand pick-up switch 3. Silencer Second is the list of things changed already. 1. Spark Plugs - Twice 2. Choke Cable - Once 3. Disk pads - Twice 4. Air Filter Element - Once 5. Clutch Cable - Once 6. Stay Collar - Once 7. Fork Cone Set - Once 8. Battery - Once 9. Chain Sprocket set - Once Third is the list of changes to be done. 1. Spark Plugs 2. Disk Pads 3. Clutch Plates 4. Air Filter Element Total expences has come around Rs.10,000 for maintanance which includes lubrications, spares & service labours. Lowest mileage returned was 35kmpl when it was ridden only 4 kms daily. Highest mileage returned was 56 kmpl. Normal mileage inside Chennai is around 50kmpl even now. Still its doing good on OE tyres & OE rear brake pads. That sums up its condition. Highest speed clocked as per speedo was 115kmph. -- Thanks & Regards, james.r The Speed Steed....
