The recent floods in Kerala and neighbouring states have caused massive devastation in the past few weeks.

Homegrown manufacturer, Bajaj Auto has already started conducting service camps across Kerala. Bajaj motorcycles owners can avail free check-up and service across the company's dealerships from 28 August to 4 September 2018 in the state.

Hosur-based manufacturer, TVS, too will be organizing statewide service camps from 27 August to 3 September 2018. Customers can bring in their motorcycles or scooters for a comprehensive check-up of any flood-related damages. TVS will also waive off the labour cost and oil replacement charges as part of this initiative.

Honda has also chipped in to help its flood-affected customers in Kerala. The bikemaker will be organising a free service drive and offer special exchange benefits. As a part of this initiative, Honda two-wheeler owners can now avail an exchange bonus of Rs 2,000 if they want to exchange their flood-affected Honda two-wheeler for a new one.

Yamaha motorcycles will also be organising a 'Vehicle Refresh Campaign' in Kerala starting from 30 August 2018 to 30 September 2018.
