    People have used normal petrol at bunks in remote places and have had no issues..
    how come?

    anyways what is the recommended ron?
    and the question remains why do i race?
    every finishing line is the begining of a new race.

    #i have learnt to manipulate my own adrenaline and the perception of biking is different.
    #overkill is underrated.
    #how random roads may appear there is always a destination.sigpic
    #i don't subscribe to co-incidence,either it is the rider or the other moron on the road

    (:)people keeps on saying add spark to life, bajaj got hold of that idea and added an extra spark to bike.

            Right..the heating slightly subsided on my bike after the 1st service and oil change. And I had put in the above mentioned Motul 7100 only. Lets see how good it is

            Its not the best...even with the slight press of the brake pedal..the tyre starts to lock, which is not good.

            And start using Multi quotes..as I did above.

                    • Serious problem

                      I got the delivery of my bike just 4 days back and done around 320km. Today evening I went for a ride and after 10km I was in 5th gear pulling from 4000rpm and I got a sudden forward jerk and engine died while me at about 50-60kmph . Then I pressed the started again and It started but now it was showing warning light glowing red (fuel injection lamp). I continued to ride and I noticed that on the console rpm was fluctuating from 1k to 7k but actually engine speed was constant. The engine shut down 2 more time on my way back home. I will visit the service centre tomorrow.

                          fuel level was just 2 bar less than full...I am sure Its fuel injection problem because its written in the manual that red light warning lamp means fuel injection problem.

                              sorry to be dragging this along further. did you fill the fuel after delivery? what fuel did you put? speed? shell? extra prem? or regular petrol?

                              I could be wrong but seems like somethings jammed the FI system, or the fuel was of very bad quality?
