if the valves are ok my RTR looses the pressure in tyres by 4-5 PS in three weeks....
nitrogen is not worth in these TVS tyres......
wont make any diff as such....

No man. With air, i was thinking the same. I filled in nitrogen 4 weeks ago, i checked the pressure 2 days back. The pressure lost was 2 Psi in rear and 1 psi in front, which was topped up free.

i never knew that nitrogen makes that much diff.....
with almost no loss in 4 weeks, i think i should switch to that too....

Thanks, dude!!

@Revz.Racing

Like i told you before my bike's pulling has been reduced but i dont know the exact reason for it.Will replace the shock-absorber oil and check the springs.And will again set the steering cone/bearings. If even after that the problem persists i would go a step further in solving the problem..the e-mail way!!

@chicane1879: Check the Chain.Make sure it is proper set,with adequate lube(Light grease/gear oil/chain spray).It can Help in Pulling power.

Arrey i meant the bike pulling to the right side.Not the pulling power!!

^TVS Service is well aware of this issue.overtightening of cone set is the reason as per them.

I have another doubt :
The Left Side Air Scoop of RTR 180 got some Harness inside.There is a tube which is connected to a Heat Sink like thing.I see a slight oil leak there.What is that "transistor heat sink" like thing which is supplied Petrol by a tube?
