All that glitters is not gold

This is my first posting on this site.i ill writre about my expirence with the bike rather than dwelling much on the techinical aspect of it.its been almost 2 1/2 months for my purchase and I dont find any thing pleasent to write about it other than its appealing looks.i brought the bike thinking that nowerdays performance wise almost all bikes are on par & choice is just the matter of lookes of bike appealing to u but I was wrong.

first month of purchase ride used to be pleasent and smooth even though I dint get good milage(got 30-35kpl) I enquired the dealer about the milage beeing far less than ther claimes he said he ill tune up the bike during first service, and after first service I am getting milage of 43-46kpl and performance has deteriorated a lot and now ride has become jolty nad jerky and pick up has compromised went to the dealer to rectify the problem for 3 times every time they took the bike inside the workshop they say they have tuned up but till date milage and pickup problems r not solved.and other problem I have is malfunctioning fule gage I think its a dummy one kept for looks it never show near correct reading.some people whow have brought the bike have said they r happy with it so I dont know whether I was tad unlucky to get a manifacturing defective bike but any way niw I fee its always better to play safe and buy a tried and tested one.any quires write into me at prash_patil@yahoo.com     26/11/06 RETRACTION TO MY EARLIER REVIEW, 2-3days after posting my review on this site I took my bike to a mechanic(not the dealer) & he told me taht there was some problem in carburetor & spark plug setting and tuned them up and since then I am getting a milage of 75 to 80kml and ride has also becom smooth but puck up has gone down a bit with all that improvement I find it to be an ok bike.ill update if any developments
