    Sometimes my bike sounds like am autoricksha at time of start...

    And also I find lack of acceleration in 4th and 5th gear..
    I mean bike takes a decent pick till 4500 rpm than their is lack of pick up till 7000 rpm... And than after 7000 rpm.. It again boosts...
    As anyone found this effect with any fog your bikes...
    Pleas advice...
    what type of knock?
    is it the typical bajaj knock or heavy knock?
    try richening the mixture?
    if its only happening while starting then its probably too lean
    open the fuel screw by 1-2 rounds

      is it normal for the headlight to be slightly dim at idle speed less than recommended value which is 1350-1450 and become brighter at and above the recommended rpm?
      it isn't very noticable, but if you pay attention very closely, you'll notice it
      I keep my bike idling at 1200rpm

        Am not sure whether this behavior is normal or not, How ever jus to be sure, you can walk into nearest battery dealer, ask him to check the voltage of your bike while idling and revving. It would hardly take 5 mins to find this out. If it Exceeds 14+Volt then you better change your Alternator, or else on longer rides you may endup with dead battery which spoils ur CDI. Thus a big hole in your pocket.

          Thanx, I know that
          I'll check it myself with a multimeter
          You mean the regulator/rectifier right
          not alternator?
          If even one coil of the alternator blows, the voltage wont exceed 14volts as a matter of fact the voltage will drop because some coils are in series
          the battery wont charge if the rectifier blows because it will be getting AC current
          and it will over charge if the regulator is blown. but both are in one heat sync unit so I guess both will blow together. and either way the battery wil also get damaged, due to AC current or overcharging.

              My front disc brake is also making squeaking noise since yesterday.

                I didn't have any accidents, not sure why my fork is acting that way.
                When i leave the handle bar, bike kind of pulls me to the left, does this has anything to do with the fork?

                  I don't think the fork is so feeble
                  But once i had a sqeeking sound from front fork which i corrected from svc and again occured and then stopped
                  Maybe u might have some other considerable prob i think kindly check with the svc more then once cause its life

                    Don't do anything, the only thing they do about squeeky noises is that they will sand paper your brake pads and put them back, the noise will start again after a few days. I've done this twice in the service center and the feel of the brake totally changes after that, leads to an over all loss in confidence in braking because you can't ride the same with the brakes acting differently. Just check the wear on your brake pads once. The noise might also be there because of something stuck in the disk or brake pad. Check that as well.
                    I would rather be riding my bike thinking of God, than sitting in the temple thinking of my bike.

                      Btw, its okay if installed a mod on your NS but its better if the mod specialitst that installed the mod on your NS ,
                      and that is incase if you're in Indonesia. I prefer on india not like in indonesia, that people just installed a mod on they motorcycle with easy steps and not safety, like insalled HID without check the battery first, etc.

                        Has anyone faced starting trouble where the bike's display itself gets resetted? It started once in the morning, but couldn't manage to start it again. Any ideas?

                        I checked for air lock and also tried a feeble push start attempt. No luck. And petrol is not in the off position.

                        I have a video but don't know how to attach it. So if someone could guide me, that'll be appreciated.

                            Pls Search the thread it was being reported earlier and issue is with your battery or the terminal's of battery being loose check it from a battery shop ..
                            To push start youll have to put it in second gear and generously push it !
                            You can try 1 gear also...

                              Push start in 2nd gear. Is there any tech behind this?, keep seeing these suggestions around in forums rather than doing it in 1st gear...

                              Good luck, you have selected a best in performance bike. What was the money it stole from your pocket?. (I mean the selling cost on road ).
                              As for the run-in, please be kind to her, be polite and dont rip at any time.. Atleast till 1500kms. For de 1st 1000kms, try her <50kms (ie, not >3.5k~4K rpms), then for the next 1000kms, keep it <5k rpms. With a sane speed, this bike will please you with a wonderful mileage figures of 45kmpl and above. Enjoy..drive with suits always....>!!

                                Generally the 1st gear is kept short on bike in order to make it roll of or say get it moving easily without much input of throttle... that being said 2nd gear is slightly taller than 1 ..
                                Now momentum required to set the ignition cycle in motion in 2nd gear is less compared to 1st gear .. 3 and so on will be to tall to start though !
                                2nd is ideal but no issues in starting the 1st .. Only you would have to push more !
                                This is from my experience though..
