    Can excessive coolant levels cause this? At the last service, the coolant was topped up to beyond the "Max" line. Also, I (stupidly) shifted to Motul 3100 20w50 at the service (I'll move to 5100 after this).
    Tune your carb,
    Your bike seems running lean, and don't worry about oil, 3100 is good oil.

          From the handle lock nut, it could be grease which is used in the conset or the fork seals has gone busted. But I dont see any justification for that sticky substance to be on the handle lock nut due to fork seal busting.

          If you are not feeling any handle wobble issue, then ride on nothing to worry.

          I hope this was a small fall, ride safe brother!!

          Cheers,

                Change it if any softest of doubt. Don't take risk in handlebars.also if u see scratches in fairing g change it in insurance if they blabber just push them hard

                    But the problem is with 1.1 idle the bike will have problems in cold start as it will stall when you Start the bike in the morning

                      Cold start is common on every ns/ktm.
                      Carb tune n set idle perfectly you can never face this problem..
                      I set may idle on cold 1k rpm and on heated engine it goes upto 1.6k rpm max.

                        No it's true. I have got 46 kpl and regularly 44-46 kpl when i was doing my running for the bike. But first two times the mileage was bad <36/38 kpl, at least before first service. Then it improved a lot. Especially in first half(1000) where i never took her beyond 48 kph or no more than 3.5k rpm max(you might want to call me 'nuts', or say the enigne will knock or soo soo soo. But did 100% ditto of manual) but it gave me surprisingly such good figures and a good engine. Check ns forums earlier threads. You will see many people claiming 45kpl easily. Also if you weigh less and fill about 3-4 instead of full tank, and solo ride then it can help for even better mileage. But by doing this, you can pull out more kms from her. Trust me....

                        My bike is not lean. How?......

                        At cold start it starts with 1100 rpm and on 3 minutes warm up, it hits 1300rpm. After riding harder, it never goes beyond 1600 rpm.
                        But now my riding habits have changed and I'm getting 34-37 kpl max. No longer interested to babysitting the machine

                        I even see some RS guys claim 40-42 kpl, then why not ns ?

                          Okay that's cool.i haven't got such mileage .in always shift at 4500 rpm and hence get around 35

                            Guys,
                            How is the refinement level on this bike ?
                            How is it compared to gixxer or fz fi ?

                              Refinement is really good.
                              It eats both the bike for its breakfast in acceleration and top speed and power

                                Don't compare the Smoothness of Bajaj with Suzuki and Yamaha.
                                Gixxer and Yamaha have way way better Engine refinements than Bajaj and the overall build quality too.
