    Re: TVS Apache RTR 180

    Found a good sticker shop near my place, I got Motul(Bigtime Motul fan) and NGK Iridium stickers The best part is both stickers were designed by him, he customized it into my needs. Also ordered NGK CR7EIX with local shop, I'll have it by tomorrow. I'll post pics of stickers tomorrow.

          Guys I hav a peculiar problem! The bike starts with just one kick in the morning but when i pull the choke it dies. And after that it takes 3-4 kicks to start. But if i don't touch the choke it does fire up in just one kick.
          Also when i pull the choke n try to kick start, it doesn't start

              Why do you want to pull a choke when the bike is already started?? Are you upto some negative testing of your bike.
              AFAIK its because when you pull choke, more petrol is flowed in which clogs the input.

                Every bike does that. Choke is necessary only if temperature is too cold and bike does not start. Under normal conditions, it leads to extremely rich mixture and the bike stalls. After which the bike doesn't start till the excess petrol is used up.

                        Anyone know how to connect SplitFire cables ? I bought NGK plug, but existing cable seems to be permanently fixed to base ! What shall I do to use SplitFire cable ?

                          Took my existing bike to exchange for gixxer and finalise the booking. But then they asked it for a very low rate of 58-67k Rs. I wish to sell my RTR for a higher rate as its just 2014 december ABS model and run only about 1560km. Since my exams have started, I have to wait for another month to exchange it and the rate will still decrease during exchange, with time. So booked only a scooter separately and came back disappointed. I wish to sell my RTR for a good price meanwhile and if not, I will have to go for a lower price during the exchange in the same or different showroom.

                          PS: Meanwhile, anyone from Chennai who is interested in buying my RTR for 75-80k Rs. can PM me And the reason why I am selling my RTR is because I am getting persistent body pain as the dimensions of the bike are very tight for my height and I couldn't get accustomed to raw nature of the bike.

                            Sad to see that you are selling your bike, it's unfortunate that you couldn't accustom. Try moving gear lever and rear brakes forward with SVC, I heard that you can set it forward position, I never done but heard it somewhere.

                                AFAIK, they are replaceable to current cables. Let me check my bike's and revert if they are permanent or not.
                                BTW just curious, why NGK and these?

                                When you bought it, didnt you notice it? BTW what is your height? My friends have the old one, and did numerous tours, and never complained of any pain, apart from usual butt sore
