I got fucked by Royal Enfield Perungudi and I ain’t letting that happen to y’all.

Please pardon my language and do read if you own or know anyone with a ROYAL ENFIELD. Hi guys your friendly neighbourhood chettan here. I WAS FUCKED! AND THATS A FUCKING UNDERSTATEMENT. 2023 I gave my bike, a thunderbird 500 for service in RE Perungudi service centre as I hadn’t ridden for quite a while. This is where I my biggest mistake ever in Chennai, I trusted those motherfuckers. I left my bike and I had to leave to Kerala. Two weeks passed getting no updates I called the guy who was assigned my bike and I had to send him around 5k for some industrial work on my bike and then it all went haywire. So I’m back in Chennai after a month and a half and still the bike ain’t ready. After a few more weeks (I guess 3) I get my bike back and wow the bill is above 33000. THIRTY THREE THOUSAND MYRU. Let’s do some math, not meth… Math! 33K + 5K + surprise they fucked over my battery too. 40,000 PLUS RUPEES SPENT and yeah I have the bills too (I paid btw). DOES THE BIKE RUN SMOOTHLY? They made that shit undriveable. I fucking made a scene and they said I need to do work for 16 k more. Ommale kiss my ass. The workers started getting worried as customers were also there and they sure as hell didn’t want to lose any potential prey. One mf was kinda like squaring up to me as if he wanted to fight, I remember he’s in his 40’s and has gray hair. Everything was only calmed down because there was one guy de-escalating the situation. I took my bike and left as I knew these retards ain’t gon do shit. IMPORTANT: They claimed the bike needs to run a bit and will take a week to adjust. DO NOT FALL FOR THIS. THEYRE TRYING TO VOID YOUR 1 WEEK SERVICE WARRANTY. I noticed this a day after and my bike gave 10kmpl literally and was stalling every 10 metres and it drank 3 liters of petrol from Adyar to sholinganellur and it died there on my way to my place I left it there, went home, sent emails to every REtard official in the south and it was a Sunday. Obviously no reply. I contacted my friend who’s a lawyer and I sent the addresses that I will be filing a complaint in the consumer court for deficiency in service and fraud. And viola I got a response within 10 minutes. They took my bike the next day itself. I talked around and asked around to know the situation of that place and wtf is happening. An ex employee gave me something vital. VERY IMPORTANT : 1. THE PARTS THEY SWAP FROM YOUR BIKE STATING THEY REPLACED IT ARE OFTEN SOLD TO OTHERS OR THEY USE IT THEMSELVES IF THEY HAVE A SIMILAR BIKE. 2. THE PEOPLE WORKING ON YOUR BIKE GETS A COMMISSION OF THE TOTAL WORK THEY DO AND THEIR MONTHLY WAGE IS ARSE. 3. IF YOUR BIKE HAS WARRANTY, YOU CAN EXPECT SOME PARTS TO BE GONE. 4. idk how much of this is true but, SINCE COVID MOST PRE-EXISTENT SERVICE CENTRES ARE AT HUGE LOSSES AND WILL RIP YOU OFF. Took a week to finally “fix” my bike still the bike was in a bad condition. Some fucker claiming to some biggie of the branch showed up and started apologising and I made the mistake of calming down. I’m not mentioning his name because I do not remember his name, I don’t want someone else getting framed and I won’t give 2 flying fucks about exposing shit like him as he’s one of those fucks that steals parts for his interceptor from ones that come in (I got to find this out too). He asked me for 20k…… THIS MOTHERFUCKER’S AUDACITY! I GAVE HIM HELL. I got my bike rolled outta there with 40 something thousand missing from my pocket. It would’ve been 60 or even more. They saw a kl registered bike and took advantage. Find yourselves a place specialising in Royal Enfield. It’s Chennai, there are many. This was my worst experience from Chennai, I won’t let any one of you endure it.
