I ride a 2.5yr old RTR 160 with 26k on the odo. Oil = Shell Synthetic Xw40. 95% redline shifting and hard riding. Off late i ve noticed the following things.
1.Engine Overheating - Even after 500 kms after changing to FS oil
2.Hard Gear Shifts
3.Dragging Acceleration like someone has engaged the brake pads a little.
4.Poor Mileage
5.Top Speed Hit badly maxing out at 112.
6.Engine roaring like am strangling it
7.I park the bike on main stand,engage into first and pull the clutch.The wheel doesn stop.Tried stopping it with my foot.Stops till the force is on but gets running once i remove my foot.
Are these symptoms of clutch plates gone or is it anything else.Every passing day i feel i am stressing the bike in this condition but i am not able to figure it out.
Cant take it to the ASC without figuring out the problem as the only one here is absolute s**t.
And there is one more problem,with the front wheel.New tyre 2k back. Stock specs TVS.
The wheel kinda drifts away when i am leaning even for 5 to 10 degrees.Its super scary.Feels like the wheel is sliding out.Checked the alloy orientation perfect with a very negligible offset.
Has it got to do with something other than the wheel or the tyre.Wheel bearings probably??
And finally is there any customer support email id for TVS ,wanna write a long love-hate story to them.
And i dont mind riding it to the Hosur factory to get the whole engine checked for wear and tear and the whole bike.Wanna get this checked by their factory engineers.The guys who know the RTR like the back of their hand.The guys who pour life into these babies.
Will they entertain such requests ? i wouldn mind sitting outside their factory for days to get them to agree to this :P.
The ASC s here are bad and i dont want some random mechanic to diagnose the problems.Need a doctor.
Yelp!!
