Inference: Table 4.27 & Graph 4.22 shows that out of 300 respondents surveyed, 76 (25.33%)
two wheeler users do not get their two-wheeler serviced from the unauthorised service station
because of non availability of guarantee, 62 (20.66%) because of no trust, 56 (18.67%) because
of non availability of latest equipments, 38 (12.67%) because of non availability of genuine spare
parts, 26 (8.67%) because of low satisfaction, 20 (6.67%) because it is time consuming, 12
(4.0%) because lack of waiting room facility, and 10(3.33%) because it is Expensive.The two
wheeler users are of the opinion that they do not get their two-wheeler serviced from the
unauthorised service station because of non availability of guarantee.

4.3. Table(s) determining the Reliability Analysis & Factor Analysis
Scale of Reliability or Reliability Analysis
Before conducting Factor analysis, the scale of reliability is used to find out the internal
consistency of the variables to be used in Factor analysis. Reliability is synonymous with
repeatability. It is a measurement that yields consistent results over time is said to be reliable.
When a measurement is prone to random error, it lacks reliability. The reliability of an
instrument places an upper limit on its validity. A measurement that lacks reliability will also
lack validity. If the scale of reliability is close to 1, then it is concluded that variables are best
suitable for conducting factor analysis. Reliability analysis is a popular and frequently used SPSS
method of measuring the internal consistency of the variables.
Cronbach Alpha (α) is designed as a measure of internal consistency. Alpha is measured on the
same scale as a Pearson (r) correlation coefficient which varies between 0 and 1. The closer the α
to 1, the greater the internal consistency of items in the instrument being assessed.
Table 4.29: Reliability Statistics for Alpha Value
Source: Compiled from the questionnaire
Inference: It is seen from the Table 4.29, the value of Alpha (α) is 0.794. We can conclude that
the variables are having high internal consistency and hence these variables are considered to be
suitable for conducting factor analysis.
4.4 Hypothesis Testing
The following hypothesis is tested by using Bartlett’s test of Sphericity to determine the
internal consistency and reliability among the variables used in the study
Cronbach Alpha ( α ) N of Items .794 9
Hypothesis 1
Null Hypothesis (H0): There is no internal consistency and reliability among the variables
selected in the study for conducting factor analysis.
Alternative Hypothesis (H1): There is an internal consistency and reliability among the
variables selected in the study for conducting factor analysis.

Df – degrees of freedom Sig: Significance Level
Inference: It can be seen from the table 4.30 that the significance (0.00) is less than the assumed
value (0.05). So we reject H0. This means that factor analysis is valid.
The value of KMO coefficient should be always more than 0.5. The table value shows that it is
0.789. So this implies that factor analysis for data reduction is very effective.

Based on the table 4.31, the following graph which is called as Scree Plot is plotted to know
the number of factors which is available in the analysis can be determined
Graph 4.24
From the above graph of Scree plot 4.24, it can be concluded that the factors having the
Eigenvalues more than 1 have to be considered. This study determines 3 factors.

From the Table 4.32 of Rotated Component Matrix, it can be seen that the three factors
can be classified as follows:
Factor 1:
• Trust
• Peace of Mind
• Availability of Latest Equipment
Factor 2
• Annual Maintenance Contract • Special Offers • Near To Residence
Factor 3
• Warranty • Guarantee • Original Parts
The factors are renamed as follows:
Factor 1 – Trust
Factor 2 – Annual Maintenance Contract
Factor 3 – Warranty & Guarantee
From the Factor analysis it states Trust, Annual Maintenance Contract; Warranty & Guarantee
are highly instrumental in the two wheeler industry.
