BHPian Buzzaper<\/strong> recently shared this with other enthusiasts.<\/p>\n I have been procrastinating this update for a good few months, and I’d like to share my experience so far. Let me start from the oldest to newest update:<\/p>\n Updates on things from OLA’s side:<\/p>\n A chocolate box and 6 months later, got a mail that my center stand and buddy step had arrived at Guindy EC in early July. I bought those along with the scooter in January. I was out of town that week so called my mechanic from Guindy EC after returning. They said both were “out of stock”. I was confused. I got a mail saying my allocated accessories had arrived. How can they go out of stock when they were supposed to be mine? The answer was “first come first serve fitting sir”. This defeats the purpose of allocation. Complained to OLA customer care, was useless. I then followed up with my EC every week asking if stocks had arrived. Finally after 3 more weeks of waiting, I got my center stand and buddy step mounted.<\/p>\n The original foot peg will be removed and the buddy step will be attached over there using not so good bolts which will start to have surface rust soon.<\/p>\n Before Installing the center stand, I inspected it to see how dependable it is:<\/p>\n It felt heavy and sturdy and had a convincing powder coat finish over it.<\/p>\n While my accessories were being mounted, I had a good look at almost everything in the dealer:<\/p>\n Accessories were fixed, I return home and parked the scooter on its center stand. Next morning when I lower the scooter from its stand, I hear a pop. The side lower black panel had popped off which was being held by plastic clips. Tried pushing them back in but every time I lower the scooter from its center stand, it would hit the panel and pop it off. Went back to the EC and the mechanic replaced the clip with a similar looking one. It seemed to be held in place. But I faced the issue yet again. The next time I visited, the clip was replaced with a much robust feeling and sturdy clip which solved the problem.<\/p>\n How is the center stand working for me?<\/p>\n It works as it should work. No issues. It has not scraped on a speed bump so far. I go over them with some caution. Even with a pillion, it has not scraped.<\/p>\n Charger Refund status: The app showed that my refund will be done before September 30th. Somewhere in the 1st week of September I received the full amount.<\/p>\n Fast forward to present, I have completed 2600kms. No issues till date. My service center experience has been excellent as well. My mechanic never fails to give a prompt response to me when ever I call him or visit the EC. Facing a trivial brake noise issue at the moment but unable to find time to fix it. It has not affected the braking performance. Managed to click some milestone numbers on the way.<\/p>\n S1Pro Gen-2 Impressions:<\/p>\n Visited Anna Nagar EC just to testdrive Gen2 on MoveOS4 demo day. Here are my impressions on it:<\/p>\n Regarding MoveOS4, the scooter I drove did not have it. Responses from users have been positive on all platforms so far. I did not want to try out the Beta as I’m skeptical about OLA’s reliability in things they do. It’s now time to wash my machines.<\/p>\n Ending this post with Ayudha Puja wishings!<\/p>\n Check out BHPian comments for more insights and information.<\/p>\nSome Updates\/Insights on my ownership experience:<\/h2>\n
