This handlebar-problem shows a common RE-problem: many dealerships today forgot how to handle a bike like this. Especially when they´re selling other brands aswell, a Bullet is treated just like a Korean scooter: drive until something breaks, then replace the module and drive on until something...you got the picture. This kind of job can, in most cases, be done by trained apes.
When maintaining a Bullet it´s necessary to spend a number of minutes overlooking the bike and thinking about possibilities: which nuts will get loose? Wich cables will be vibrated towards sharp corners? Which bolts could be in danger to be overtightened? And so on...Thirty years ago this was the only way to keep any bike on the road.
I have to add, however, that any modern bike today would probably run better if it would be overlooked in the old fashioned way. But it´s not essential to modern quality, because modern dealers as well as constructers apply the following calculation: when trustable components are built in, you can economise a great deal of work when doing maintanence, as it´s cheaper to exchange a defected module if necessary.
In case, though, you´re on of the few unluky ones with a lemon bike, this changing-the-module-strategy that is mindlessly applyed on any kind of problem can drive you really nuts - see above "Suzuki". In this case a typical trained-ape-mechanic rather spend 2000€ in spare parts than to have a closer look at the bike. Time is money - in this case, however, only his time counts
In India the strategy of how keeping a bike on the road as cheap as possible must be a different one. As labour, even when it´s very qualified, is in comparison dirt-cheap, the contructers trusted in mechanics who can afford, and are supposed to, make use of their working time in order of finding current or imminent weaknesses.
Here we have the clash of cultures! In our funky western civilization we have to get that RE is a third world-bike. And I like it that way
