    OT - Does this new Avenger 220 doesn't need any run in formalities? Y'day a new blue avenger with temp registration number zooming on the BETL with more than 70kmph
    Mostly what you saw would be new bikes being brought to rural show rooms from near by main dealers. And the guys who rides them could be mechanics / sales people!

The roads are very narrow and only small buses using these roads. You can google for further information on this route.

      Thanks brother. Yesterday morning went to kolli hills at 4 am reached by 11am and returned to b'lore by 8 pm.It'about 580 km .Rs.800/- on petrol (T.N.) On average speed i.e.11ltr petrol and so about 50 km/ltr. I could climb all 70 hair pins on 4th gear occasionally changed to 3rd when other vehicles come against,other wise in 5th the bike pulled with out any problems.

        No i think he was the owner. Wearing the same colour open face helmet and the joy on his face, he must be the owner. Any how this is OT.

        Went on 150kms stretch on Sunday on the NICE road and the new bike behaved well. Felt it was even smoother after riding more than 30 minutes. Head light and the horn is sufficient for this 45kmph speed, but i doubt on the higher speeds.

                70kmph is still acceptable for a 220 cc engine.
                Dont know about Avenger 220, But P220 run-in was to be below 5k RPM and it does 81kmph at 5k RPM. so 70kmph will be below 5k RPM and within the run-in limit.

                    Although this is OT, but the manual for Avenger 220 Dtsi says 65Km/Hr as the max limit for first 1000 Kms.
                    Its not always about speed.

                    • These days I am in a mega-battle with HMC. Will post all the details and stuff once victory is mine!

                      Ride report:
                      1. Completed 2400+ kms.
                      2. Very satisfied with the performance.
                      3. Mileage is a bother (thoda sa! :P )
                      4. Rains making my bike dirty
                      5. Stupid Service Techs fiddled with my great clutch settings. Some problem exists.

                        1.hard to get 60 from 55 but smooth accleration after that
                        2. Last few days in a 50km trip, include several climbs but good road, got 55+ mileage, the speed was 45~55, but yesterday on NH at speed above 60 , got mileage only 35+
                        3. experiencing chocking after 55

                            Pl.check your air filter and clean ,change if needed.If O.k.check the spark plug and clean if needed.

                            Pull the choke lever down, arrow mark is there.Start as usual.,pressing the start switch. Don't rotate the accelerator. When engine is steady(may be 1 or 2 min) push back the choke lever. and start riding.
                            Never ride with choke.

                            NGK irridium SP is arround 550/- but for cbz I doubt recommendation is there.Check their site.

                            • After 1st servicing, I checked my mileage 2 times before posting here.

                              Type : Reserve to Reserve

                              City - 10% + Highway 90%
                              1st Mileage test is 58.72 Km/Liter - Took bike to 72 Kmph , average speed -> 45 - 60 Kmph
                              2nd Mileage test is 61.65 Km/Liter - Average speed 45 - 52Kmph ( Highest in Hunk, i think )

                              Overall, I'm very happpyyy and i think i did my Engine break-in correctly . I'll post my figures again in City only
