One month back had done the carburettor cleaning job at SVC and the Spark Plug was changed. Everything is stock in the bike. Checked the condition of plug and noticed the tip to be fine with no soot deposits. The only thing is, the starting of plug (after the tip) has turned black.
    What can be the issue?
    Cheerz!!
    Don't know the exact reason, maybe the cleaner carb lets richer fuel than before.
    The tip should be dark brown-light black color. Maybe the bikes running 'little' rich on fuel.

    Ride safe and have fun.

                  Hi,

                  The cost of a new speedometer is 2316 rs. Just to be in safer side check whether there is any small bent in handle bar or if the cone set is damaged or not due to the accident.

                        I had last week posted that I was getting a weird tak tak noise from the front end.
                        Actually it was coming due to the contact between mud guard and the crash guard which had a loose screw. I noticed that while washing the bike today. Silly me
                        And here I though I might have a damaged conset

                        Ride safe and have fun.

                          Guys, have been running on Shell AX7 (semi-synth) oil for sometime now. Although i am facing one issue, whenever i downshift at higher or lower RPM's, there is khatak sound. This was not the case when i was using mineral oil. Anybody facing this issue with FS/SS oil.

                                Thats the transmission banging when you downshift from high speeds, its normal, and the sound gets louder if there is excess chain slack. I'd suggest you first get the chain tightened, and then try to shift more smoothly, like matching revs while downshifting.
