I just wanted to know if you faced the same problem, if so what did you do to set it right....

Thanks!
Bend the link rod correctly as given in the pic and use spacers to make more space between tire and link rod as i did and try adjusting tire after that.Pics included.

The gear shift doesnt make any TAK noise. Try to compare the TAK noise before and after you tightened that nut. I am no expert, however, this is a good way to find out.

the same noise is there in my bike for a few weeks, i thought that the chain link must have gone kaput and took an old link from the previous chain as link was not available,it ran well for a few days but the sound has returned.anyone had similar issue before?

Yesterday tried working throttle with only one cable...ie., only the pull which actuates the throttle when you twist it.There was no idling or acceleration difference, but the throttle twister went further down(clockwise) and there was cable slack at the carburettor end..There seems to be 2 inches of extra cable length . ..So it is possible to work the throttle with single cable...The second cable actually stops the throttle twist from reaching the end clockwise when we reduce it to zero...may be designed to save the twist from getting damaged and have a free rotation .

Would that remind of quick throttle set up kinds?

No in a quick throttle the larger dia spindle does the job, while here there are two cables from throttle twist to carb...while one pulls the other pushes...I guess it is to take off the slack in cable, and give a precise throttle feeling. The throttle twist also stops using the carb throttle valve stopper.Parts 2 and 3 are the two throttle cables.

@PSR: I am having one question. Which part of the engine got damaged during knocking? Its the knocking caused by pulling the bike in very low rpm. Please explain.

I too have 4.00 M45 at rear in zma r but its not scrapping the sides. I have run about 1000km on it. Does the tyre bulge ones it gets older ? I think the alignment is not centered properly in your case.
