    Ask him how many twists your bike's carb sports now?

              • Please help... after a recent 1200kms ride, a squeaking sound has developed from the somewhere near the front wheel. I don't think it's from the brakes cause it squeaks continuously even when not applying the brakes. I tried putting the bike on the main stand and revolving both the wheels but no sound comes, only when riding. Anyone here having this problem?

                  The noise might be coming from the hub of the front axle.Might be some loose bearing.

                      You should check the front shock absorbers

                      • Got my bike today. I am a noob when it comes to riding a geared bike. It got switched off when I was driving slowly.

                        I am scared to rev it hard during the initial run in period.

                        I really wish there was a gear indicator in this like in the Suzuki GS 150R.. would have made my life much much simpler..

                        Guys, a very very basic question for you:

                        when to shift gears? I mean I will know when to upshift, but while downshifting I won't know whether to brake in the same gear and pick it up from there or do a down shift. The bike doesn't do more than 10kmph in the first gear - revvs at 5k. Is it normal?

                        The bike suddenly stopped when I was riding in like 3rd gear and slowed down. WHen should I apply the clutch? I tend to hold the clutch whenever I am driving slow as I am scared where it will get switched off..

                        Some basic biking tips, please..

                          Well, it would be better if you ask some of your friends or relatives who know riding bikes to be pillion with you. That way, you would learn faster.
