Then filled the 10 ltrs at known good Petrol pump. so far meter reading is 290km and has lost only 1 line from meter indicator!!! BTW riding on this bike is fun to the limit, I keep looking for reasons to ride the bike
    It's gonna take a while for you to understand how NS' fuel indicator works lol. and then you'll be like.. omg it's such a dhokebaaz meter !! One thing is for sure your fuel efficiency is turning out to be good. Also I agree with the last part.. "I also keep looking for reasons to ride the bike"!

    Now also do mention what was the solution tocrhe problemcthat you mentioned..was anything replaced ? If yes then which part. All thse kind of info can help other members wjo may face such problems,we never know who might be next.

    Whishing you many more happy miles with your bike.

    Cheers

    yeah as krishna said, not a reliable meter. Just wondering if 220f's meter is better in this case ? it's also digital so does it show correct readings for fuel ?

    I seriously think that Bajaj used wrong Ergonomics charts. May be they used the ergonomic data meant for European/US population (they have bigger avg size than Indians). There seems a blunder in all positions of levers/buttons. Even the seat height is not meant for avg Indian guy.
    I love the seat height !! cause I'm avg tall guy, 6ft. I wish the riding position was a little more sportier, like handle bars footpegs at better places. also a little more seat height pls but even I have hit the tail section with my leg when getting on the bike.. cause it's so high but i'm ok with it as it looks damn sexy.

      +1.
      A sportier riding position would have been awesome , especially a lower set handlebars...plus the high rear seat looks super sexy...infact if I could increase it more , I would !!

I have escaped several dangerous situations due to this issue where the motorcycle stops suddenly in heavy traffic.I had first informed this issue during the SECOND service. They returned my motorcycle the same day and the repairs department assured me that the problem was with Idling RPM and it had been fixed.The the problem showed up again.I had informed the same issue and several others during the THIRD service . They increased the RPM and returned my motorcycle the following day and they assured me that the problem had been fixed. The problem is still persistent and the mileage has reduced considerably from 39 km\l to 27 km\l after the tuning. I am extremely disappointed. I am also shocked at the workmanship of an authorized service station assigned by a reputed manufacturer in the country. Anybody has the same issue ?????????????????? Please post ur suggestions to sort it out.

        --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
        Hi,
        I had the same problem few days back and the service guy has increased the idleing and the issue is stopped now.. However i need to check for few more days if i encounter the same again. BTW is there any misfire on your bike coz i suspect the spark plug to have gone bad.. This happened in my previous bike due to spark plug failure ( Plz correct me if am wrong)

            +1 to the people complaining about the bad ergonomics of the bike.
            Everything apart from my back is not "sure positioned" including the feet. Especially the right foot. You can't let it rest under the brake lever too, unlike the left foot where you have more time to switch gears. Most of the time I'm just changing the position of my right foot.

            The indicator switch is positioned badly too. Forget using the switch while the clutch is depressed, even when it is not, I have to consciously reposition my left wrist to be able to use it. I use gloves all the time, btw. The RTR is so much better in this aspect.

              Mate tje first test mules that were goven to auto jouenalists were the one's you are seong in rhe first pic. The side panels were of the body panel color. In the mass produced models ir's a matt finish. Nothing else,no new scheme is there as of now.

              Erganomics do take time to get adjusted. Each person have different size and the problems varies with each person. I never felt any problems with erganomics other than the indicator release switch. Never had a problem with brake pedal. It's just how well one adapt's to the bike.

                Thanks for the reply. Also,when I idled the bike before switching the engine kill off,the radiator fan started. I was surprised because during the day it wasn't running at all in the sweltering heat. I wasn't sure whether I should switch it off while the fan is running,but when it didn't stop blowing after a minute and a half,I switched it off,the fan turned off instantly and waited tentatively for any coolant overflow. There was none,but I still feel a bit apprehensive. Is this normal?

                  Shouldn't the fan swotch off when the bike is turned off ? And i don't get the overflow part..why you expect coolent overflow ? Sorry,just curious...

                    Yes,the fan did switch off when I flipped off the engine kill switch. And expecting the coolant overflow was just a reaction that was based on reading somewhere that switching the engine off while the fan was running resulted in the coolant flowing into the overflow reservoir and subsequently dripping onto the engine. Hasn't happend in my case yet. Most likely,it's my "ohmygod my new bike" wala paranoid phase.

                      lets get technical...
                      when ur bike was on road running, air was hitting the radiator, having enough heat transfer from radiator coolant to keep coolant below high temp (i think it is 92 or 96 c when fan turns on), when u idled the bike, natural convection was not enough to cool coolant, so coolant temperature reached the threshold temperature where fan starts, so that the forced convection (by fan) starts to cool the coolant....i hope u get what am saying

                      since ur is a new bike, just idle ur bike for few mins in morning and see fan starting (according to manual don't idle more than 3 mins, it might overheat engine), anyway don't worry after runing period, ur bike will be less heated compared to now..bt it will get heated more than other bikes (except duke though...)



                      ODO 7250km ...mileage figs: 39-41km/l in city traffic.

                          Thank you. Yes,I get the science behind it. But what surprised ( and worried ) me a bit was the fact that when I came back after a spin in the day,with temperatures higher than that in the evening + no breeze, after idling for a couple of mins,the fan didn't turn on. But in the evening it did within a few seconds of idling. That was what got me apprehensive.

                            Since the topic of radiator and coolant is going on i want to ask a question

                            My bike is 1050 kms old...2 services completed(ok dont laugh on me) with oil changed at 196 kms with dtsi oil and 905kms with motul 3000

                            I have NEVER seen my bikes radiator fan working

                            some say the fan is audible...so i havent even heard it

                            few times i have felt heat on my left leg near the foot and a bit above...

                            is this the radiator fan at work or simply the engine decided to let out the heat??
                            Reason to ask this is if i feel that heat i try and stop as soon as possible to see the fan work but i find it not working and if it was earlier working(heat wave on left) i should be atleast able to see it moving and rotating and slowing down to a stop but it always it dead still

                              Exactly. That is why companies spend on ergonomics. So that one does not have to adapt to the bike, beyond a certain level.

                                yes it is clearly audible when there isn't much noise around you. i only saw and heard it once on my first or second day of purchase. Never after that and I wonder why. The radiator fan should start running as soon as you stop at a long red light, get into a bumper to bumper traffic which happens alot. ofc it's not easy to notice the fan running in traffic jams as your focus is elsewhere and too much noise around you. But I think i should really verify this, get it sorted if required. Cause there is this one time I was a red light & my bike idled for about 3-5 mins (ppl usually turn their engines off but I didn't) , then I smelled something worrisome, like the smell you get in brand new engines ? while i had already done about 2500kms back then. surely check it soon if my fan is working
