  • Re: TVS Apache RTR 180

    Went to Karol Bagh. mainly to get Chain Clean and ask what all can be added on RTR and to search for BT headset

    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.

        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.

                Hey guys...anyone know who can do complete DC' fy of rtr bikes in Bangalore. Any contact details will be great. AFAIK its not an EC job like every mechanic can do. So if I go and ask anyone in JC road all will claim they can...that's y asking if any of u guys have tried and have contact details of the person and some approximate cost.

                      @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.
