Yesterday, the clutch wire broke at the lever junction and the bike stalled in the middle of the traffic. Pushed the bike to a side at S. R. Nagar. Could not locate any mechanic nearby even after searching for an hour. Caught a bus finally and went to Kukatpally and bought the Clutch cable for 67 bucks. Came back and was wexed to look for any mechanic and finally I decided to do it myself, and yeah I MYSELF FIXED IT. I am happy for that.

Actually my bike also has the same symptoms. I have been thinking till now that the cam tensioner has gone (38000km on odo) and has been thinking of replacing it. Now you guys are confusing me. Now, I also have the same question, is it due to loose tappets or cam tensioner?? Let me check with my mechanic and find a solution.
