Just posted it on that website with your suggessted corrections regarding gear ratios.

That gear ratios are of the latest model GS.

I removed the clutch cable, used the chain lube oil which the local oil guy says it is SAE140 which is not thin as normal 2T oil nor as thick as grease.
Placed 20-30 oil drops at both the edges of the cable and moved the inner cable so that the oil flows in and left it bent with its edges facing upside for an hour or so(to let the oil flow all over the length). Now the clutch is almost butter smooth and i donot feel any pain in my wrist.

As far as I know, the clutch cable is already lubed at the factory and additional lubing with oil or grease causes its breakage. So be careful.

Think, only cause of our reviews, Suzuki is able to sell this number

It is true up to a certain extend.

@Punarvasu:::

In my bike oil drain bolt doesn't tightens properly...Checked the bolt and it's ok..Checked the threads in the engine case and found that the threads has gone because of over tightening by myself..

I'm going to replace the parts involved in the coming service..
Which parts needs to be replaced? Any idea?
Checked with the stores person at SVC and he said it'll be only the oil cup which costs around Rs.200.. He again asked me to inform him during the service for his reference..

Replacing the cup he mentioned is enough here as it is a separate part. Ask them to clean the oil strainer at the time of replacing it.

Thank god I didnt messed up with the engine case.,

To my surpreise,they got the stock of that oil cup and didnt bite the pocket though which now brings a big relaxed smile on my face..

Noticed some metal particles during the oil drain today..
Some particles are left inside and found them while filling the oil..

I'd replaced the oil filter too, so can I run the engine with this oil itself or I should opt for an oil change

after servicing..

Your bike is not new and it is not the first or second servicing and the possibility of seeing metal particles in the oil is rare.
If the oil is collected in a clean bowl, you can use it again but it depends your mind. If you feel that it is to be replaced, do so.

Strange behavior of Ape RR

Your posting is useful to all but please correct the gear ratios because it is modified now. The bike you bought is of 2011 batch.

Are you trying to use the stock coil?

ya. using the stock coil only.

Ape RR is not charging the battery as soon as the engine is switched on. suddenly its gives the charge after 1 or 2 mins after engine is started. Since I have the ammeter i can monitor this...

Friends have you anyone got the similar behavior of ape rr ?

Dont know how the metal particles does present there.. Might be bcos of the damaged thread, while opening it would've entered the corners of the oil cup ..
