220 dts-i problems
Hi XBHPians, I am Tushar from amravati.
With due respects, I want to thank all of the members here, whom suggestions made me to decide on 220. I LOVE MY BIKE!!!!
I am usually a silent listener but now due to some problems in my bike i have to speak up. I have some idea although but still i want to ask for suggestions.
PROBLEM 1 :: I dont know what to say about this one. It disappeared in the same way as it came---Surprisingly. The whole story goes like this. One day i took my bike for a usual evening ride. That day I found somewhat difficult to handle the bike. So i returned home, put the bike on main stand and closely examined it. I found the problem was in the Handle bar[I don't know precise mechanical terms still i will try to explain it]. It was the case that the handle was not freely moving. At about 30 degrees on both sides it was a little jam. So my direct conclusion was that it may be due to somehow wearing of ball bairings(Which I suppose is present in that handle assembly----God, I am total NOOB about motorcycles). Now it happened almost a week before my exams, so i was not able to take it to showroom and rectify it. I decided to take my bike to showroom after my exam(It was my semester papers). But surprisingly, on the last day of my exam, I noticed that the handle is no more getting jammed and now it is moving like butter. I can feel the sudden increase in handling.
So, this PROBLEM disappeared in the same way as it came---putting me to get surprised. SO I WANT TO ASK YOU - SHOULD I GO TO SHOWROOM AND CHECK THE HANDLE ASSEMBLY OR SHOULD I WAIT UNTIL IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN(IF IT DOES)?
PROBLEM 2 :: The second problem is quite clear. The front disk is touching the brake pads and making squeaking sound. Now i know it is not a new thing. But for me it is because the disk is not touching the pads in uniform manner. I mean that when on main stand when i rotated the front wheel, it appear that the 2/3rd of the disk circumference is NOT touching it while the rest 1/3rd is touching the pads. So it is making squeaking sound. So, I came to the conclusion that THE DISK IS OR MAY BE SLIGHTLY BENT OR TILTED.
I am going to the showroom the day after tomorrow. So please suggest me what to do on this issues.
I know this are not big one, but where else should i ask for the opinions!!!
