Saini is in it for cash, do not expect favours. Buying- a ready to go 350 should cost Rs35000, when you sell, how much effort are you going to put in? It is tricky to get a decent price, everyone knows you are leaving and have little choice but to take what you can get. Beware spurious mechanics. Anyone with a spanner reckons he's a mechanic. In north Goa Dr Joe in Calangute, or Hannuman in Mapusa both know what they are doing, Dr joe can also be persuaded to store a bike at a reasonable price. Better Goa than Bombay if you are a little unsure, there are many unscrupulous people around and at least in Goa the "small town" set up of the place provides some safety. And as said above, India will ruin the rest of the world for you, there's nothing quite like it.
