    probably a bad "cone-set" (i.e. steering stem race/bearings)
    only an inspection can point out the cause. go to a mechanic and have them check it.

    Clean the carburetor , particularly the fine holes on the idle jet .

    what do you think?
    its 0.12 to 0.14mm for both. i recall seeing it in the manual

    AirFilter(OEM-stock) is 2k kms old
    SparkPlug(CR6HGP) is 5k kms old

    What's the spec for intake/exhaust Sid?
    iirc the clearances should be between 0.12 - 0.14 mm for both on the 102cc activa/dio.
    as for the stalling problem, i suggest you try to increase the idle a wee bit by turning the idle screw.
    if that doesn't solve it, then you might as well get the air filter and carb cleaned and adjusted correctly.
    At 20k, it would be a good idea to change the air filter (best to change it every 6~8k max) and spark plug (if it hasn't been changed in over 15k km) [MENTION=65015]Anuj_Gupta[/MENTION] , try to get the clearances adjusted with a feeler gauge and let me know what is the value it is set at. i know a lot of mechs do not use a feeler guage
    with a feeler gauge you will know if its at the recommended values and still causing an issue.

    Also if the spark plug has done over 20k km, time to replace that as well.
    Do these two and let us know how it works out and based on this we can proceed further with checking other things.

    Problem.- it takes hell lot of time to start now days, once started, no problem in riding, you can still do 80kmph with it, engine works awesome. But only problem is of starting it.
    Too many kicks and then it starts, what is the problem?

    Is it an easy job ? Any special sized tool required ?
    you will need to remove the clutch side cover and the 'bendix pinion' thingy will be located on the top left corner hidden under a cone shaped cover. if you watch closely, you will notice that cone shaped cover in the video below
    Enjoy the videos and music that you love, upload original content and share it all with friends, family and the world on YouTube.


    I suggest you get it done from a mechanic.

    btw, where exactly is the rust ? If its under the panels and not visible outside, you could apply a thin layer of grease around the area that's prone to rust. get hold of the nulon grease spray..it isnt as thick as regular grease.

    And yes, you can buy just the side stand spring from any local spares shop.. should cost you around 20 bucks.
    Thanks,mate.Yes it is under the panels.
