    I rode my bike for 200 kms today and took a short break of 5 mins. When I started riding my bike again a weird tap tap tap tap noise started coming from engine...I stopped and checked and the sound was from engine.
    Never heard this weird sound before. Any one facing same problem.
    Please help thank you....

    Odo reading 2800 kms...
    kat kat, tap tap, tup tup, all sound the same vernacular, plus it's hard to pinpoint exactly what your problem just by a vernacular. If you can post a video clip or sound clip through a link, it would help all who are trying to help you and potential of this issue.

    Secondly, does it continue throughout the ride or stops after a while in riding, and does it sound the same after starting for the first time in morning.

    Cheers!

    And the guy lived happily ever after and rode motorcycles and watched sport on a big screen TV, went fishing and surfing, and played golf a lot, and drank beer and scotch and had tons of money in the bank and left the toilet seat up and farted whenever he wanted.

      That's normal on RS200. That sound came because your engine was hot. Once it's cool the sound disappears

        The sound was due to engine overheat. It disappeared in the morning.
        Thank you VJ

          If you observe this sound only when your engine is turned off and you stop the bike, say after riding more than 15 to 20 KMS and you hear like fast tak, tak tak sounds, it's due to the expansion and contraction of the metal plates inside the catalytic converter, the exhaust pipe itself and anything that hot metal cools down, so you hear tik tik, sometimes you even hear multiple sounds, absolutely no problem.

            Hey guys.. I'm planning to get an RS 200 by January... Actually the cash would be ready then. So I was thinking if I should wait for the 2017 model to be released..and would bajaj slash the price of RS since dominar is also on the same priceline..and some of my friends suggested that the dealers would give neat discounts if I'm buying a 2016 model..senior guys.. Please help me out by giving your valuable suggestions

              Guys..
              I am planning to stiffen the front suspension.
              RS200 is very good at cornering, but the huge dive when braking. I I COMPLETELY HATE THAT.

              DUE TO THIS DIVE , we can't brake late and tip in to a corner.

              Even on a corner,if a sudden bump or undulation comes, it feels like we are gonna throw away.


              I think most of you guys would have felt the same,the front forks bottoms out too easily.



              **So am planning to make the front a bit stiffer, and after going through a lot of stuffs on internet, from CBR250 and ninja300/250 forums, the easiest way is to increase the quantity of fork oil, +10 or +20ml.
              And with that using a heavier oil can make it a lot better, using castrol or motul 20w fork oil (our stock is 10w).**


              _What you guys think about this upgrading?
              Any other suggestions?
              Has any already done it?

                              Hello Riders,
                              Need one suggestion.
                              On my second complimentary service i.e on 3500 km I topped up with Motul 5100 15W20 and left with 800ml.
                              Now My third service is approaching and current ODO is 3743 km.
                              I am planning to switch to Motul 7100 engine oil.
                              Is that okay to mix left over Motul 5100?
                              Please suggest.

                              Cheers...
