        In my place it is being sold in small packets of 5ml which costs Rs.9.

        I've also used Nulon additive which did nothing but a drop in mileage.

        I think you are mixing up Combustion area and Gear Box area.

          If gasoline is coming out overflow tube:

          1. Check the bike's orientation, is it standing right up or on the ground
          2. Check drain-screw : someone might be stealing your precious
          3. Stuck Float : it's spring loaded to block fuel inflow when float-bowl is full.

          In your case, it's a stuck-float, a tap let it loose.
          i too have faced same problem https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k9mhlqRUNaw

            My friend who owns a Gixxer had tried 3M additive for engine oil...which lasts for 1000kms...he said there is a bump in performance and also a drastic increase in mileage!

              I hear small tak-tak sound when I rotate my rear wheel, might be coming from front chain roller not sure but comes when the wheel rotates. Has some one faced similar issue . I have done 2700 km till now on my gixxy
              Actually it's not a issue..it's the sound of the speed sensor which is connected to the chain in the front...The sound will gradually decrease after you clock some kms (5000kms)....Chain Clean and Lube will reduce the noise..Usually in other bikes you find the speed sensor which connected to the front wheel!

                    I own a Gixxer..even my gixxer had the tak-tak sound...I had argued the same with Service Manager....He later clarified issue...By checking other Gixxer in the showroom and service centre...even it had the tak-tak sound and later showed the gixxer where a speed sensor was removed and tested it,the sound had disappeared!

                          Hi

                          I think there is no connection with speed sensor. If you remove the sensor cover there is a deep hole onto it & exactly the front sprocket is mounted with some metal objects for sensing our travel speed. The metal object is on the sprocket perfectly sets into the hole provide for the speedo & there is enough gap bt the sensor & the metal object. Few months back i even tried by removing the front sprocket cover & rotated the wheel by hand to find the exact location of the noise. If any one of the sprockets is misaligned & chains not perfectly seating into the sprocket teeth's this will create the noise. Lubing will solve the issue temporarily but definitely chain alignment should be done.

                              You can also go for an aftermarket Clutch..where you can adjust clutch play!...which will be available in different size and colours

                                Don't go for cheap Chinese aftermarket levers. They have sharp edges. In case of a crash you may end up with a chopped finger.

                                Apache levers looks good and feel nice to hold
