Re: TVS Apache RTR 180
hello guys
completed 10k km last week and got the 1 paid service done.
the service guy didn't changed the Spark plug
nor cleaned the carburetor
he just cleaned the air filter, replaced the oil filter and oil gave it a wash and returned to me. Simply saying(bhai jaisa manual mai likha h vaise service krenge toh kaun service karaiga)
The Acceleration of bike had reduced (can feel that)
also top end had reduced drastically it isn't going above 110 with a pillion
for milage it returns me 34 (without ripping)
Another problem i might think
when i put my bike on centre stand and rotated the rear wheel
i heard kut kut kut.. kut noice (damm sure it was not of chain)
the rear brake works like a drum brake
the front one like discover's disk

Re: TVS Apache RTR 180
You are right Rahul. My bad I keep forgetting thatOriginally posted by Rahul.g View Post
Anyways the only reason I suggested him to stick to Tru4 or other mineral oil is because the oil change interval is frequent in the first few thousand kms and other semi synthetic oils (eg Motul 5100) can last more than 3000kms easily.
Do exactly what he has told. You will even get to hear an apology from the service manager!

Re: TVS Apache RTR 180
had complained already on phone between my free services and yes got a call from service manager too but that is not going to work, as every time
i take my bike to svc a mechanic checks it and says everything is fine
We all want our bikes to be perfect and not just running. From this forum I learnt that big problems start with small defects and those mechanics always try
to manipulate us by saying everything is fine.
i m not the one who can tell them what is wrong but i m the one who can feel that something is wrong which they dont understand.
just want to get helped by you all to know what exactly the problem is and then getting it fixed by some local mechanic or claiming it to svc.Comment

Re: TVS Apache RTR 180
@Devesh : You called the SVC manager? Or on the toll free number.
If I know correct, whenever I complained the mail reaches the head of service of that region and then they pass on the message to the svc in question. During my complaint I was so agitated that I called the Northern Head of Service to the showroom and told him what happened.
Its India, thats how they work. They need a "bambooo"Fare thee well xBhp, All the best for being the biggest name in corporate world

Update on my Bike
@VinayakVerma: You can get it on ebay or vickly(dot)in.. (Remove l)
Update on my Bike
Went to the svc to get all things checked. I rode 1000kms and the oil was in between 200-300ml.One way clutch will be changed. Piston rod is having play, quite a big one this time. Things to be changed/repaired
Whole cylinder assembly,Clutch Plates, front fork seal, rear shocks, disc pads, Timing Chain, Rocker Arm,Leg Guard etc etc.
Estimated amount Rs11500, might get it reduced by few thousand as per mechanic.
I know I am spending too much on it, but I need to do Leh on this and then it would be on sale. Selling it right now would have meant depreciated value and loss for me, thats why too the decision of getting everything in working condition, atleast for the last few months of its life.Fare thee well xBhp, All the best for being the biggest name in corporate world
