          Not good as motul.. But they are cheap and value for money.. Buy in least quantity.. About 250ml or something.. I have used that.. Ok product. Now i m using w140 gear oil with frequent cleaning.. That works good in my case

            Loose cone set will have such an issue. Get it tightened.
            The real beauty lies in throttle's twist!!

            Headlight can be replaced, Head cannot be. Wear a helmet.

              I have removed the air filter cap (above the air filter element) . Throttle Response is quick, sharp, and exhaust note is punchy, and I feel acceleration is marginally improved .

              Does it make anything wrong in long term....??

              Local mechanic said, nothing will happen except the air filter will last 5k rather than 12k kms.

              Thanks for reading...

                what to use for cleaning the chain?
                => motul chain cleaner
                => petrol
                => kerosene
                => diesel

                please advice guys, as this is my first bike?

                  It is economic to use kerosene/diesel to clean the chain and then lubricate it with Gear oil (EP-90) or Motul Chain lube (it is less messy).

                  Go through this thread: http://www.xbhp.com/talkies/general-...brication.html

                  There is no specified way to know on when the air-filter will give you, be it 5k or 12k. Since you have remove the cover, make sure you clean the air-filter more often (~500kms) or else be ready for a choked bike.
                  Ride safe and have fun.

                    Tha air filter will dance when you pass over rough patch or road, during that time there are chances of the Air Filter jumping from it's slot and remain that way. This will harm the engine with unfiltered air entering the cylinder.

                      I have got an misaligned chain even though the rear wheel is properly aligned. With both side having the same number of marks & position. I also tried refitting the front sproket but even that didn't help. How to align chain?

                        Don't use Motul as it dries out faster.
                        I was using Motul but now using TribCor. It is available with online websites like Amazon, eBay & Snapdeal.

                        Hi Kartik,
                        Can you share the photo?
                        Double check the markings on the swingarm on both the sides. Check the axle.

                            Hi Sebhul,
                            From the second photo seems like a grease to me.
                            Did you see the oil on the floor?
