  • Engine heating very quickly in a new Apache 200 bike

    Hi Awesome Bikers,

    i have purchased a Apache RTR 200 4v (carb) version on Jan 14th 2017 and since a couple of days i can feel that the engine is heating a lot . i can feel it in my legs , Is this normal for a new bike ?

    I have driven 250 kms now since Jan 14th and this issue started at 200 kms , is there a risk for the engine , do i need to check with the service center already . Also i feel that the acceleration has been decreased . i am maintaining only 50 - 55 speed even in empty roads . I live in bangalore so the most of the time i am always in traffic .

    Also what should be the idle RPM for this bike . i have it at 2k then the showroom person decreased it to 1.4k

    Please help with your suggestions

    Thanks
Working...
