I am selling my stock seat because I recently bought a sahara touring seat. I am from Thane/Mumbai. Feel free to reach out if you want it.

Hey all, I need a suggestion whether to go with the 3D printed mudflap or the tyre hugger. Which one makes sense and doesn't look odd?

Only concern is that for tyre hugger, we need to drill holes into the company fitted mudflap. It would look like this:

Planning to get saddle stays and top rack from legundary customs for my scrambler 400x.
Just wanted to know if the saddle stays can also hold panniers?

IT RUNS!

The £2.5k auction Triumph Bonneville is back, and this time I'm finding out whether I actually bought a bargain or a very expensive ornament.

After flushing out the absolutely disgusting old fuel, fresh petrol goes in… and somehow, the 1979 Bonneville fires into life.

And then, because apparently I have absolutely no sense of self-preservation, I took it out for its first proper ride. 😂

do the triumph 400s have a hidden mounting for spools?

I was checking out the swing arm when i realised there are 2 holes, at the same place on both sides of the swing arm, but placed facing downwards. it's located a bit after the mounting for the saree guard. could this be just a drain for water? but I don't think there's any way for water to enter into the swing arm so this leaves me confused.

could we, in theory, get a strong L clamp and install standard spools using this hole?

Had a small mishap with my Scrambler 400X where the handlebar got slightly bent. Took it to the SC, and after inspection they told me that the front brake disc and alloy wheel/axle were also slightly bent/damaged and need to be replaced along with the handlebar.

They initially told me the parts should arrive and the bike would be ready within around 10 days, but it’s been some time now and I still haven’t received any confirmation regarding the parts.

For anyone who has recently got accident-related parts replaced at a Triumph SC in Pune, how long did it actually take for the ordered parts to arrive? Is 10 days a realistic timeline, or should I expect it to take longer?

I am planning to buy the Triumph Scrambler 400X soon and wanted to get some feedback from recent buyers on the dealership experience across Pune.

My speed 400 is 3 months old.
A month after first service the fuel gauge readings were way off like after riding for 45km ride the reading would show more petrol , i thought the rain might have messed it up. Took it to sc they might have done an ECU update . I refilled the tank back to full. Rn have driven 50km and its just 2 blocks down in fuel gauge.
Showing 250km left for next top up.
Am i just over concerned or is there an actual issue

I recently bought a Triumph Street Triple RS from Triumph Whitefield (Khivraj, Bangalore).

The bike was originally invoiced in my brother's name because we were planning to register it under the BH series. He works with South Western Railway, Mysuru Division, so we went through the BH eligibility verification process at Mysuru RTO.

However, the RTO required employment verification from his DPO, and the BH registration route is no longer feasible for us. I've now decided to simply register the bike under my own name with a normal Karnataka (KA) registration.

The problem is:

The invoice has already been generated in my brother's name.

Full payment was made almost a month ago.

GST/taxes on the sale invoice have already been accounted for.

The bike has not yet been registered or delivered.

The dealer says their cancellation policy only allows invoice cancellation within 7 days.

Since that period has passed, they say the invoice cannot be reversed or transferred to my name.

I spoke to the General Manager of Triumph South as well, and he also said it cannot be reversed, but I haven't received a clear answer on whether this is a Triumph policy, Khivraj policy, or a GST restriction.

I'm not trying to cancel the purchase. I want to buy the same bike, but have the invoice issued in my name so that I can register it in my name.

If they absolutely won't change the invoice, the fallback seems to be registering it in my brother's name and subsequently transferring ownership to me, but that would make me the second owner and potentially affect resale value.

Questions:

Has anyone faced a similar situation with Triumph/Khivraj or another dealer?

Is a 7-day cancellation/reversal policy standard for vehicle invoices?

Is there actually any GST restriction preventing the dealer from reversing the transaction and issuing a fresh invoice to a different purchaser after 7 days?

Has anyone successfully got a dealer to make an exception in a similar situation?

Would you recommend going ahead with registration in my brother's name and transferring it to me later?

Looking for practical experiences/advice, especially from people who have dealt with vehicle invoice changes in India.

When I press the starter button, I can hear a ticking/clicking sound, but the engine isn't cranking/starting.

The bike was working fine before the wash. I noticed this issue immediately afterwards.

What should I check first, and is there anything I can safely try before taking it to the service centre?

Edit 1: Battery is okay got it checked

Pushing the bike is turning it on but then after keeping it for 15min on and turning off it and on it didn't work

Edit 2: SC told the grounding issue in the circuit, cleaned the grounding points, took them 10 15 mins! Working smoothly now!

Hey guys, I know it's all done and nothing will change, but recently I drove the current 350cc Scram 400x, and I simply could not accept the fact that they changed the complete nature of the OG (I have it).

**Not to tense the new buyers, sorry, but actually the current ones are super smooth, and even I want the same smoothness in my bike**, but without compromising the pull it had at every rev.

Guys, I know that Bajaj chose the most cost-effective way, but still, ignore all those things; just go through the figures generated by Gemini.

What do you think? Do you think that my hypothetical engine would still provide a similar or better feeling than our OG engine did to the new buyers? Do you think even OG owners might feel like, "yeah, it's more or less the same"? What do you think if they might use my hypothetical engine on the new Bone 350?

Gangg any tipss??
