    The BOSCH twin-electrode plug which presently is doing duty in your bike is the best one unless you settle for Iridium/Platinum plugs!!

          Even i am facing the noise from the fairing part of the bike which makes a constant buzz between 5-7k rpm. I guess i will have to resolve it of my own by trial and error method!!

          Ahhh!!!....Now that's a relief....I had been thinking it might be my imagination....so that buzz from the fairing is inherent in all RTRs.....
          Actually I had thought of asking about that here ....but I did not know how to explain it......it is so simple now....BUZZ from the fairing.....

          Please guys if anybody finds any solution for it please let know....
          I do not have any trust over the SVC guys that they will solve it....
          I learnt a lot about bikes here in XBhp from the experts....
          The SVC guys are really pathetic....

          • Gurubhai,
            Congratulations on your black menace , rule the roads with it but ride safe and carefully.
            RTR180 is one of my favourite bikes, due to some reasons i couldnt buy it, the handling and managaing the bike in heavy traffic is a breeze..
            Enjoy. Keep updating the thread.

                  • What? An Apache 180 with Fi and ABS? Is this true? Lets hope they give it DC lights, maybe a projector beam and better tyres.
