Somebody enlighten here... also check oil level... now this issue can be something stupid like a carb bowl overflow.... when the bike stalls close the fuel tap lean the bike or keep giving it self or kicks... it it starts up after 2 to 3 cranks its a carb float overflow issue.

    Will get the clutch adjusted, I usually take the clutch if I see I need to stop after some distance and then leave it a little before stopping point so that engine braking can stop the bike.
    Mechanic adjusted the AFR and I got engine oil replaced. He also cleaned the chain with petrol but i forgot to see if he lubed it or not will get the chain lubed.

      Clutch was adjusted and he had removed the fuel tank and tighten some bolts. I had heard the word TPS thou while they were talking to each other in their local language, didnt understand what they were discussing. They told me to collect the bike next day so couldnt wait there and see what they exactly did. I just found the next day that my bike was running better.

        Any idea how much play the clutch lever should have ?

        Is it better to get the carb AFR tuned via a digital machine or manually, SVC guys put a wire in silencer and then tune the AFR by setting it to some value displayed in the digital meter. In my first service he set it via machine while in second service it was done manually

          Engine braking in the initial 1000 or 2k kms is good practice. Dpnt make it a habit. Clutch plates are cheaper then an engine overhaul. Has been discussed in the thread before.

          Clutch should be progressive.... not like... 80% clutch release bike dosent move forward.... last 20% bike moves.... this is wrong adjustment imo and I get burnt smell with this. where as if the clutch is progressive bike behaves better.

          High tech svc ehh go to an experienced mech ask him to tune afr by ear... he will do a good job.

            Prathhappa, got your tire issue solved? I have the same issue with my CBR since 4 months. I use to top up air every 10 days or so. Really lazy to get it checked. But if I keep my bike without riding for 4-5 days, the air escapes faster. Will get the alloys checked, during tire replacement.

                Dude after the bike stalls does it start up immediately after 2 to 3 or more cranks?
                Then its a carb overflow issue

                  Yes, it does if I crank it immediately I.e. as soon it stalled I give it 1 self and it starts but keeps on behaving like petrol is getting over and I have to give lots of raise in 1/2 gear to keep it running. If I wait for some time after stalling then it won't start no matter what.

                    It happened again and I switched off the fuel supply and the bike kept running for 1.5 kms....till it stopped due to fuel and refused to start. I switched on the fuel supply and it started in one self. I then rode it with heavy throttle but it did not stall again.

                    Will try to reproduce it again tomorrow by riding with full throttle and will visit a mechanic if issue comes up, as i went to a mechanic and he ripped it a lot but issue did not come :-(

                    BTW, what is the solution for carb overflow ?

                      I suggest every rider in pune to go in these days to lavasa in early morning. Plan your ride so that you can reach lavasa at around 7am. No traffic, no croud, just you, your ride and amazing whether. Keep posting your experience and ride safe.

                        Carb is overflowing get new float pin... kind of cheap fix... float pin is very small but costs about 120rs
                        Easy fix relax. Try leaning the bike a lot.. petrol wil also fall. Get the float pin changed. Cheers. Also the prblm will not come if you use main stand check it out

                          OK...will now put the bike on main stand for few days and check...it the problem doesn't come then it has to be carb overflow.

                          I ripped the bike for 1 hour on Saturday at high speeds with full throttle near mechanic shop but damn thing kept on going...maybe one reason is the petrol is on reserve, will get tank filled and then try again.

                              First of all I hope you are doing this speed sprint with safety measures. While doing this high speed even a small gust of wind can make it wobble. Apart from this the alignment of front fork can also be the cause.

                                1. I was doing this speed test out of curiosity of the top end I can reach on a empty stretch of highway and I was wearing a helmet only and I am sorry for doing this test without proper gear but I was curious as I have never done these speeds before.

                                  And forgive me for the noob question but does the rear wobbles due to misalignment in front forks at high speeds ?
