got around 50+kmpl till 800kms on my odo....during running in period!Originally posted by cbz_edge View Postdid my 100 kms today..very comfortable byk great engine ...took it up to 73 easily bt only once...
grs suspension amazing..engine yet to get smoother,HOWEVER IT Z GETTING SMOOTHER...hope it ll get perfect after 1st service...no vibration in my byk at any speed...
bt the problem is i m getting mileage of just 30 kmpl till now
wot i want to know is ....is this mileage acceptable in run in period???
but before answering consider the following 2 points
1.>>>the city in which i live in is called "muzaffarpur"....this city is too conjusted
and crowded with 2 wheelers and 4 wheelers....most of the tym 1 have to drive in 1st and 2nd gear....sometimes in 3rd and getting 4th and 5th gear is rare...most of the tym i have to use the clutch and brakes..
2.>> the day i bought the byk i oserved that it was nt idling properly ...when travelled for 2 km the byk idled at 3.5...after 2 days i adjusted the idling speed(by simply turning the idle speed screw) n now it is idling at 1.4-1.5
now u say under these city conditions is this mileage acceptable in run in period??
or is the adjustment of idle screw the major culprit???
BIKERS I NEED UR HELP
my average speed was 45-55 kmph....
SIngle Rider...mostly Highway driving!
so i think 30kmpl is ok type of millage considering your points!
i ususaly avoid city driving during running in period in order to avoid maximum use of clutch and brakes.
after 800 kms i have extended my speed upto 60kmph max.
will try to be in speed limits till 1500-1800 kms and then i again change my engine oil to gear up higher speeds!
dont worry....with my driving experience i have noticed that the engine will get smoother after you will complte around 500 kms...
and pls make a noke...dont drive her beyond 60 kmph..atleast not before 500kms.
make sure you change your engine oil at 150 kms...
RPM is just fine at 1.4...warm ur engine for few seconds/minutes everyday in morning before riding her.
and at last...ENJOY YOUR RIDE!
Drive Safe....RIDE HARD!

Even i noticed the same...but you should always remember-dont cross 3.5-4.0k rpm limits in first 500 kms...and 4.5--5-5 in nxt 500 kms..!Originally posted by itssaurabh.negi View PostThankx a lot for ur comments,by d way it looks even better on Road.. everybody around keeps asking me , is it 180cc? its good to have a unique bikw like dis... Pulsar's are too common as on date...
tell me one thing i fell like 1st 2nd gears are having tooo much torque instead of higher gears,could it effect my mileage..
as per other experts on xbhp remainning in speed limits (aka rpm limits) till 2000kms will help in settle down of engine and will return good millage in future.

loads of thanks ANEESH....n 1 more thing i adjusted the idle rpm screw myself ...simplt turned it a little....will it affect the performance n mileage ....n if yes then what should i do???Originally posted by Aneesh@4GHz View Postconsidering:Riding mostly @ 1st and 2nd gear,traffic and run in period,your mileage seems to be fine for me.Always keep your bike below 40 till 1000kms,aftr 500kms,you can start bursting to 60 or 70 or 80 for a few seconds,after 500kms,vary your speed between 40-70km/s,donot ride in a same speed for a long time,it will help the engine to settle faster and If you need more mileage then keep it under80km/h till 2000kms.
If you kept it knob ON,you have reserve,If you kept knob on RESERVE,there is no reserve.

No...self tuning of JUST rpm screw does'nt make any difference to performance nor the millage...condition apply is that it should be in Hero Honda recommended Range.
as per my experience anything between 1k to 1.5k to pretty okay as per new bike.
experts please shed some more info on this!

Idle rpm above 2000rpm will reduce your mileage.Set it to 1.4 or 1.5k when your bike is hot.So it will be 1.2 or 1.3 at cold,may feels little heavy during mornings,but it will be ok after riding a few kms.Originally posted by cbz_edge View Postloads of thanks ANEESH....n 1 more thing i adjusted the idle rpm screw myself ...simplt turned it a little....will it affect the performance n mileage ....n if yes then what should i do???

Got my Hunk today..Drove 6Kms
in bangalore traffic from showroom to home.
Good:
Awesome power at lower RPM's upto 4k rpm..Dont know about higher RPM yet
Solid build quality
Good Suspension
Relaxed Seating position
Perfect height for me
Bad:
Hard gear changes
Brakes were not as effective as expected tat too in a dual disc bike
Missing engine kill switch and kick rod
Overall had a good impression but i found the engine quite hot when i reached home. Is this normal?
When do you suggest for 1st oil change? SVC guy said 500-750Kms / 1 month but i think tats quite long and also can you suggest a good brand for engine oil.

congrats buddy for ur bike
it will take time for ur disc break to come under full effect..be patient..
Engine smells BAD and does Heated up very much initialy because at the beginning of its life,it has to undergo a lot of friction from engine counterparts, its normal for the starting few KMs
Oil change: as far as i have know, first oil change shud be after 150 Km..
Safe riding mate!!! and upload ur bike's pics as wellsigpic

Congrats for your new bike.Originally posted by Ravitej View PostGot my Hunk today..Drove 6Kms

Keep your bike below 4000rpm and 40km/h till 1000kms ,for best engine life,keep below 80km/h till 2000kms,and you can give sudden bursts to 100 or after 1000kms for a few seconds,after 500kms,vary your speed from 40-80km/h.Awesome power at lower RPM's upto 4k rpm..Dont know about higher RPM yet
Mineral oil is the best oil for a settling engine,So complete the run in period with Hero Honda engine oil.and also can you suggest a good brand for engine oil.

Thanks a lot for the suggestions guys...Will follow each and every points you made..
Will upload the pics soon...
I dont have any plans of modifications even in future but the only thing i will like to do is get the white rings on the rims as in the new FZ as i feel it will enhance the look of the Red bike. What will be the cost of this? is this done by hand or using some machine?
