        • its summer on its top guys
          hear in new delhi ever day the temp cross 40+
          i have to ride bike for 20 km or for 1 hour in this hot noon 1 to 2pm
          sun is always on head and sucking my energy may be of bike also
          the air is so hot that you cant go with a helmet which has no visor otherwise you will burn your face ,the tank scoops are in this season is failing to to their work i think they are making engine more hot by passing the hot air to it
          the tarmac is so hot you cant go with naked legs on them ,tire stick like glue on them the tyre preasur increase by this hotness
          i always do hurry and take bike to 7k to 8k rpm to reach home early so that i can cheat the sun
          but my bike gets over heat the accleration decreases

          please guys give me some summer tips to maintain my bike health

          is there any engoil which cool engine or what grade is best for summer.

          • Okay guys i am very worried...

            this may sound like paranoia but today while cleaning the bike i found it had around 3 black spots in the tank..my RTR 180 is white in color and these minute black spots are looking like insect droppings but when i tried cleaning them i found that the paint was gone.....

            has anyone else faced this??? i just bought the bike on 9th june this month and now this is happening...

            • Got my one way clutch and the TCI changed under warranty. The mechanic (from another service center, not from the place where i generally get my bike serviced) who serviced my bike asked me to do it because there were some weird gunshot like sounds coming at times when the engine was switching off. He said its a common problem in most 180s

                  I have faced this issue in my Black Pulsar 180. In my case, the black spots were due to the 'Mango True Glue' like substance. As my bike stands under the shade of Mango tree at my home so the black glue like substance was spread all over the tank. Though they are not visible in my case. And I have not managed to screep them off.

                    Replaced it thrice under warrenty. Problem not solved. Ultimatly it was not a problem with the carb but with something else! SVC folks and the PBK engg could'nt solve it....got pissed off soo much that i sold the bike within an hour!

                    Now am happy with my RTR 160. Wish i did'nt had much troubles with 220..!

                          Like what i assessed the 'real' culprit for the problem.

                          Probably your bike's cone set needs tightening.

                              The handlebar vibrations are still there. It starts from 4k and stays all the way. Earlier it used to vanish after 5k. Any idea what might be the problem? I had tightened the nuts and bolts.

                                Vibrations can be blamed to multitude of factors and in the case of the RTR they are just too much and really tough to point out the 'exact' root cause.
