Definitely not practical or ok after paying big bucks for brands, but that’s the way things are.

Things like these really make me think is it worth the headache owning premium bikes/cars in India.
Don't get me wrong I'm a true blue petrol head. I just absolutely adore performance automobiles but even the good ones which sell in India have stupid service issues either because of the dealer or the company itself. In some worst cases, by both!

Consumer protection levels are anyway dismal in our country. But when it happens to a premium automobile owner it hurts more as they love their machines more than the average guy.

In this specific case, I think OP was not wrong in expecting honesty. But the real world is far from ideal. He should've been aware of the issue earlier, I'm wondering how did he not see the difference in the way his bike rides after removal of a part which many here admit improves the lower end driveability and has other benefits?

Maybe OP will be able to shed light on it

Booster Plug is one of the best after-market parts on my Bonnie. Really sad to know its lost.

I am very surprised you didn't find any performance difference between stock and booster plug in the intervening period!

This aftermarket ' performance ' mod has been sold for ages.Mostly snake oil .At best a poorly designed solution.In cars, you have Racechip and various other potato chips providing ' increased power ' .Good riddance to bad rubbish .

Sorry to hear this. Hope you've been able to get this back from the dealer. To avoid such issues in future, it will be a good idea to state that you have the add on upfront at the time of servicing. You can also tell them that you will be checking the vehicle when they have finished the servicing. Many times, things that you care for will be 'misplaced' by the ASC. Its very stressful to deal with this later.
