I bought the Honda Shine 125cc after exploring the entire market. I noticed when I went to the RTO for registration the vehicles are brought by the Rag pickers paying them a menial amount. They never bother about the customers and drive the vehicle with a speed more than 60-70 kms. to complete atleast 10 vehicles in a day to earn more money. When the customers take delivery the shop owners(and representatives and service people) advise us not go beyond 45 kms speed until the first is completed. I do not know how the shop owners who have taken the entire money from a customer and did not bother whether the vehicle driven by a professional or not.
On the they brought my vehicle to the RTO the vehicle was giving lot of problem i.e. switching off and on several times (every km.). This complaint was lodged by the rag picker who brought the vehicle to an incharge of the shop who came for registration. He did not notice me the customer was standing there. When he came to know he lied to me that my vehicle had no problem , only the other vehicle had problem which was not pbysically present. Then I asked him to drop me on the way.
He hesitated first then allowed me to come with him. The vehicle stopped several times before reaching the shop and that boy also gave lot of problem to me. When I went to the shop and complained they told this and that and finally they found the problem is with Petrol Tank and changed the same and pacified me and delivered the vehicle. Is it the way a dealer who sells a prestigious company’s bike to take care of the vehicle bought by the customer paying a huge amount.
Another problem I face daily while starting the engine in the morning(First time). It does not start using kick starter or self starter. It starts only after using the choke and I have to give the throttle immediately.
