when your bikes engine is new, it heats up a bit more than after everything is set in...

even I felt the heat when I got mine after some time it gets less...

oh! yeah try to keep it below 4k rpm for better performance later buddy.. i made and intensive study on run-in and it says for Ur engine wells and piston to mate well the run-in period plays a very important role. so try keeping the rpm well in range with varying speed below 50 kmph so that the "menace will last longer"

Smile Dreaming about MENACE
Hi my entire MENACE friend…

Yesterday I have booked my dream baby “Apache RTR 180 menace”. I have chosen white one. The TVS guy told me that he will deliver my bike with 7-8 days. One black & one gray were already there. Especially blue backlit display & ‘racing’ logo on rpm meter impressed me very much. Just I’m dreaming about my MENACE now……..

Thanks.
