harmony_603 0 Report post Posted June 2, 2009 @cyrus43 Hi, i too had been to Jhaveri Honda but at their Fort showroom. Found the guys very lousy. They didnt even have a brochure of the Dio, so i later visited Om Sai at Mahim. Found them slightly better as they had a Dio on display. Cyrus, i think Jhaveri Honda does not have Dio in stock, they are expecting the stock in a week's time. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crazy cat 0 Report post Posted June 2, 2009 Congrats cyrus. But i never knew Dio came in yellow and black color. 25 days waiting period, i guess is because of less production facility, as said to me by our local dealer. All Hondas have waiting period, Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

varun_gandhi 0 Report post Posted June 2, 2009 congrats bro for dio but i think activa was worth waiting as it is new gives better mileage and more power and in my city you can take activa by giving Rs 500 more than the price they will agree. But none the less congrats.! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CYRUS43 0 Report post Posted June 2, 2009 I cant stand the new Activa. Its Ugly. The waiting period is 60 Days for an Activa. And guys, what makes you think that the scooter is going to be Stock for long?? hehehe....Its going to be one Mighty Dio!!! I have a few mods planned..but after a few months!! Also, I will use the Dio as it is for a few months, and then It is getting a Custom Paintjob..Ill give details soon. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crazy cat 0 Report post Posted June 3, 2009 I have booked it at Jhaveri Honda-bombay directly at the warehouse. Where did you book the bike? warehouse? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CYRUS43 0 Report post Posted June 3, 2009 Yes, I booked it directly at the Stockyard. And Delivery will be taken Directly too. @rssh, Performance wise, Shaving the Exhaust Port helps improve performance. Apart from that, Maybe Porting the intake and Exhausts valves etc shall be done in the future. Lets see..Apart from that, It will be getting a custom paintjob in a few months!!

CYRUS43 0 Report post Posted June 26, 2009 I took delivery of the DIO on wednasday..The Customisation has already begun. The moment i got it, i replaced the original lenses with Smoked ones which I had prepared myself. She looks Extremely cool and unique. Here is a picture of the DIO before I took delivery. I promise to post some High Defination photos of the Dio with the smoked lenses, etc.... :-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rssh 59 Report post Posted June 27, 2009 Thought I like the blue colour in dio yellow looks flashy . Also isn't there going to be a problem in visibility issue of the smoked light . How did you smoke them tell us ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CYRUS43 0 Report post Posted June 27, 2009 There is no problem in visibility. Smoking Lights is very very simple..... Take the Lights you want smoked, and spray them with a can of Black paint. (not matt black). Remember to spray them from a distance of around 1.5 feet atleast. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
