    1) No aftermarket levers are there for RTR. So anyone had any luck with those?
    2) The handle guard, just like D390 is available for around 1400-2000 rs pair.
    3) Found lever protectors for 1400 for a pair
    4) Could not find Vega BT headset and the shopkeeper was not sure whether it has Intercom or not.
    did you search for indicators?

      Oops sorry to mention, yes I did. Retails at around 300 for pair. Different designs, different colors.
      But stopped myself from buying any. Motul chain lube itself burnt a hole

        There are 3 colors and 3 shapes available. Red, yellow and blue are the colors and each indicator has 15 LED's. I bought it on ebay, here is a link: LED Small Indicator Lights Yellow Universal FOR ALL Bikes | eBay
        It was delivered in 3 days. Infact, the seller is from delhi :P

        Edit: 4 colors and 4 shapes.
        Do these indicators have flexi mountings unlike the stock ones?? If they are flexi ones they have less chances of breakage due to a small impact.

          No these don't have flexi mountings but at the same time they are much smaller than stock indicators and don't protrude out as much as stock indicators. As a result, chances of impact are reduced.

                    @susheelkumar : [MENTION=41586]Divya Sharan[/MENTION] might know. Plus if you find any good electrician, take the diagrams with him. He might do it too.

                            before getting my apache 180 delivered, i decided to take my friend's black apache out and get used to it. as i rode it for long, i felt i was lugging the engine, if thats the term. whenever i slowed down i came to first gear and when i released the clutch, the bike started to roar and my friend said i came down way too much and i should ve been at second. this has happened to my 100 cc suzuki but i got used with it and rectified it after sometime. after this when i slowed down i was in second and that i felt it would be okay. but to my surprise the bike again roared and my friend said i should ve come down to first. so what is the maximum speed for the first gear? or when should i shift down to first gear if m braking from third? my friend said he did the same thing as he was riding scooter before but got used to it with time. he couldnt tell me how he did that but he just said it comes with the feel that we get from the engine sound.

                            i now feel its a nice upgrade from a 100cc vehicle and i ll learn better riding but i also fear that if i continue this with my new bike then i might be stressing its engine and evetually kill it. so please help.

                                Hey guys, I just want to know, when was your Front Disk Pad changed?
                                I have ridden for 8500+ kms and today completed 4th service. The guy was saying to change front disk pad. Is it true that disk pad gets weared off in less than 10k kms?
                                I am feeling the brakes have gone weak, so want to confirm from you guys if its really disk pad wearing. Kindly respond.
