A motorcycle functions entirely in accordance with the laws of reason, and a study of the art of motorcycle maintenance is really a miniature study of the art of rationality itself.

congs for your new bike
trip a and trip b is your trip meters
both record your trip length since last reset. to reset go to trip a mode by pressing upper button and long press lower button it will become 0.0. same with all the modes like trip b,highspeed,0to60.

Nops, the road was wet then.

@Drifty

I see some orange coloured cloth kept near the engine. Remove it. That space needs breathing as that leads to the air-filter unit.

I hear the weired sound from the engine while i accelerate. On highway it was very much audible in the speed range b/w 70to 75kmph. And one more thing while i deaccelerate the weired sound is not there. Do tapping sound appears on acceleration and disappear on deacceleration?
