        Hello all,

        I feel there is some problem in my engine..
        The sound of engine changes from 2.5k -3k rpm in some sharp manner and if we keep speed in between 2.5k-3k rpm some tic-tic sound comes from engine .
        I have seen other bikes engine also..
        They are having that tic-tic sound very low and some don't have that.
        Mine have that more..
        What causes that sound???

        I have changed the cylinder kit too and then also the sound persists..
        I have shown to various ASC's and they also say its normal as they are not sure from where the sound comes but it is there..

        Please let me know the solutions for the same as it is very irritating and I love my bike very much...

        IN NEED FOR URGENT HELP!!!!
        May be engine road has got damaged. Or problem with timer

            Is this petrol leaking?
            Just visit nearest mechanic to temporary fix then visit ASC.

                1). Which Variant did i go For Single Disk or Double Disk With CBS?
                Some People are saying Double Disk is Causing Problem Due to CBS Technology, Bike is Getting Unstable while Braking On Top Speed. Is it True?

                2). Is suspension Stiff, It Is PainFull On OFF Road ?
                I Have to Ride this Bike in City as well as Village, So in Village Roads are not that Great. Will it Cause Much and Give me Back Pain?

                3). Which Color Should I get?
                i am Totally Confused Due to Addition Of 2 New Color in Special Edition (Blue with White & Red) But Still, i Want to Go With Orange/Black. i have not seen Blue and Color yet, Please Let me know your Opinion, Will they are More Good Looking than Orange.

                4). What is the Cost Of Accessories?
                Here in Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh. 3 Different Showroom Offring 3 Different Price of Accessories Costing Rs. 2600, 1800 & 1600. What is the Real Cost of Accessories and How Should i know Which i Original And Which is Duplicate

                My English is Not So Good Please Ignore it.

                1. Single disc i.e Non-CBS would suffice. There are situations such as sand, gravel etc. where in you need to use the rear more prominently. CBS might be a hindrance in such cases since it the rear in tandem with the front in a specified ratio. Moreover even in normal situations, you would need to use more of front than the rear. IMO it does not make much of a difference unless you are a learner/new rider. In such cases CBS would be better

                2. Suspension is definitely stiff even if adjusted and certainly not the level of a Unicorn regardless of the adjustment. Yes it will certainly be jarring.

                3. Colour is subjective and individual preference. However i prefer plain and bought Neo Metallic orange in Oct 2016

                4. Saree guard is free. Rest you can get it fit outside. Would be cheaper.

                  It is readily available in coimbatore , palakkad. Price Rs 854 . Chain sprocket full kit. Excluding Fitting charges and tax

                          Had my second servicing today at 3650km. Changed oil to Shell Advanced U Fully synthetic oil 10w40.

                          Just disappointed that gear shifting is still hard. Its a bit smother than before, but just slightly. The ASC told me he'll change some spring if the gear shifting is hard.

                          What do I do?
                          I love everything about the bike except the gear shifting.

                            How's shell oil compared to mineral? Did you notice any difference

                              It's been just 10km since I changed the oil. I can't clearly make out what has changed.

                              Although, I can make out a bit of difference with engine smoothness. Not sure if it's just in my mind. I will ride the bike for a few days and get back with my findings.

                                Does this motorcycle seriously need a tyre replacement? My brother took a heavy bruising after it skidded on sandy road today.
