Considering that you have crossed the 1000k mark, you can slightly ease out on the self imposed restrictions, slightly increase the maximum rev level after every 250kms. The word to be noted is SLIGHTLY. But do keep varying the speed and avoid keeping it constant for too long.Originally posted by gmagesh14 View PostIn today's world, quotes don't matter. Quotas do!

Vishnu., just now went outside and came after riding for some 10kms..Originally posted by vikhyath View PostConsidering that you have crossed the 1000k mark, you can slightly ease out on the self imposed restrictions, slightly increase the maximum rev level after every 250kms.

Engine is hot now., at idle rpm I could hear the sound clearly..
I increased the idle rpm gradually upto 2k, the sound also increased(frequency of the tik tik) along with the rpm.. When I reduce the idle rpm it also reduces...
Sound didn't vanished at any rpm...
I take ur advice and will consult with the doctor(Engineer)...Last edited by gmagesh14; 11-09-2011, 09:24 PM.

Magesh, me too facing the same tik tik sound (may be mild ting ting ting sound continuously) syndrome from the very first day. So it is not for the rough use of the bike. I reported it to the SC (Jain Suzuki, Pallavaram). They boldly declared it as a chain looseness problem and after service proudly declared that it has been rectified. But it is still there. As it is not bothering me, I don't want to damage my bike by SC experimentation. Anyways if you find any solution kindly share with us.

Thanks a bunch vishnu, I'll not give it for service before consulting the Engineer.
No Vishnu I didn't mean it.. Considering the bike is in run-in and running the bike at this speed for long distance is not a good practice.. That day I not even took a halt to cool the engine.. That's why mentioned it..Originally posted by gmagesh14 View PostVishnu., just now went outside and came after riding for some 10kms..

In every authorized Suzuki service centre, there is an experienced mechanical or automobile engineer in charge of it and it is as per the norms of the company.
My suggestion was to ask him before you proceed to disturb/adjust the valve clearance of your bike. See, that was nothing more than a personal suggestion and I am not losing or gaining anything due to its adjusting in your bike and you are the sole authority to decide whether to consult him or a mechanic there.
Asking you about the correct spelling of that word as you yourself belong to that category and knowing it is essential for me because a very close relative of mine is a BE (Mechanical Engineering) student of a well known institute in Goa, though I am a high school dropout villager.

Partho., My ODO is now 1570kms..Originally posted by partho View PostMagesh, me too facing the same tik tik sound (may be mild ting ting ting sound continuously) syndrome from the very first day.

I'm facing this problem from the last 300kms onwards.. Previously it wasn't there.. My bike's chain also got loosed just some 400kms back..
Didn't tightened it yet.. Reported this to service center also to rectify it while servicing..
And this tik tik sound is not because of chain loose, it is purely from the engine side..B'Cos even in neutral ,at idle rpm also the sound is coming..
Will be giving my bike on Friday at ABT, Nandanam.,
Will update about it to u & others soon..

Nothing Vishnu., I highlighted it because I never thought that there was a engineer in a service center., Till now my mind is struck in a way that all the professionals working in service center are mechanicOriginally posted by vishnukmd View Post

Vishnu, Knowledge is Power.
There isn't any qualification or degree or class for knowledge..

+1 same here; however I didn't approach Local Mech... yetOriginally posted by MSN1 View PostSVC as well as local mechanic are not able to give permanent fix for this screech screech noise from front disc break.
I saw how he(SVC-Mech) try to fix it; all I could get from his actions was
- greasing the screws
- scratching the pads (must have fixed it if dust/sand was the cause of noise)
but the screeching sound prevailed. I guess it's some misalignment that needs a closer look from a patient expert.There is no honest path to prosperity - KoKa

Nice, I am really concerned abt my average...
Last time, i had an approx figure of 45kmpl.... this is bugging me much.
This time I have filled petrol worth Rs 500 (6.9444 lts) in empty Tank.
I also made Trip A reading to zero, to measure.
On hitting 4lts mark, i.e. only one mark on meter, it had a trip reading of 95km.


So, I m really worried....
Additonal Comments:
I ride it mostly to my office.
My Office is 5.5km away from my place. So daily travel is of 11km.. Thus, my travel time is 30 min, so for 23.5 hrs my bike is parked.
It is still in run-in period with ODO reading 505km.
I have maintained RPM well below 5k during a ride.
And on weekend, Max distance would be of 20km not more than that.
I have certain queries...
1. Does "Not Turning feul knob to Off" may reduce mileage?
2. Does short distance travel reduce mileage?
3. Does petrol evaporate during non-usage hrs?
Pleaseeeeeeeeeeeee help what should i do?

@mysti::
1. Does "Not Turning feul knob to Off" may reduce mileage?
NO it is to prevent the fuel from flood into the engine.
2. Does short distance travel reduce mileage?
Short distance with less clutch usage and less stop and go doesn't affect mileage. Mileage could be achieved only in higher gears and in less stop & go conditions.
3. Does petrol evaporate during non-usage hrs?
Yes a little could evaporate, when parked under direct sunlight for long period.

2. Short distances may reduce mileage depending upon riding conditions. Short commutes with lot of braking and acceleration take up more fuel than normal.
3. Petrol does evaporate when you park in the sun. Also, a bike with a partially filled tank is prone to lose more fuel. Try to keep the tank filled.
4. Since the bike is still in run-in, it generates more fuel hence consuming more fuel and requires more oil.In today's world, quotes don't matter. Quotas do!
