    I'll document it on my blog at sgbikerboy.com when I eventually get to go at it.
    Great!! Please put up a post or a pm when you post it on your blog, will surely be checking it out.

    It's usually once at the first service and thereafter at every service or as required(if you hear ticking noise)
    500km even a RE would go longer without fingering the tappet adjustments!
    Oh great!! I didn't have yet got the ticking sound but I am facing a little vibration issues, also a mileage droppage.

    No, actually I read somewhere that the tappet adjust was required at every 500, and it just got stuck on my mind. Glad it is required only at every 5000km. Thanks for correction

      I saw some oil/greasy stuff leaked over the engine case this morning. I tried searching previous posts looking for solutions, but could not find anything. Can anybody shed some light on what it might be?

      The last time I saw this, I had mentioned it to the SVC guy, and he told me that he had tightened the inspection window bolt, which was probably the cause as per him. Not sure whether it is the same issue or something different.

      Also, there is squeaking noise from the front tyre at specific intervals. It started after the bike fell from standing still position. Can anybody give me an idea, what I should get checked?

      Thanks in advance.

        Is the oil coming from the magneto side wire opening? If so, seal it using anabond

          I am sorry, I didn't get you. Did you mean the cable that is going into the case? If so, then I will first seal it at the joint and then wash the area to check for further leaks. Plus, is it usual for oil leaks through this area?

            Yes. Seal the portion of cable coming out from the casing. I have seen this issue in some of NS's of my friends. They got it sealed.

              Guys...
              Which tyre size is better for cornering on our stock RIM?
              140/70 or 150/60 ?


              THANK YOU! ☺

                140
                150 is overkill IMO

                  I heard that 140/70 is heavier than 150/60

                        For oil changing part, I recommend you to go through the DIY section of Xbhp. There is a post specific to changing oil in 200ns. You can buy an oil filter from the SVC separately. And I believe Xbhp members from mumbai will guide you on a good mechanic part!!
