              ha ha guys i have got around 45 no matter how i ride my bike... and now with lean mixture with the filters m gettin around 40 +/-. tried empty tank with a litre and checked after tuning... it purely depends on the way one shifts n revs i guess

                It all begins with a thumb-start -- Oh, wait, I forgot the kill-switch

                  With lean mixture you should be getting more,
                  the famous word- "AVERAGe"

                  And if filters here means the K&N, you're doing just reverse of what you should be doing.
                  Running a K&N, that too with lean mixture will KILL performance, and it will make your engine run super hot too.

                  @ALL:

                  35-40kmpl is God avg for 180 in all conditions.
                  I get 40-45 (45 if i'am not in boy racer mood, 60-65kmpl when drivven below 4500RPM which anyday is not possible with RTR, i got that figure while running in,never got that after that) from my FI in all kinds of riding, you do the math now.

                      • worst i got was 35~ somethingish when i was ripping full on when the bike had finished first service...
                        40 +/- is the normal figure in my friends circle on all kinds of rtr's., i.e., 180,160,fi....
                        and couple of days before i met a guy (40+years) he stood next to my bike at the ring road signal with his white180., i asked him about his mileage n stuff and he said he gets 55 average since 3rd service and i was like WOW... what mileage would he extract from a 220, if given to him.......
                        from then i wanted to know about mileage of others and hence i posted the question of how much u guys r getting from your bikes.....

                        • Hello RTR owners, one small query for my friend , whats the best tyre for RTR180 which can be used in all conditions wet, dry and even for touring it gives less issues which can fit in a budget of 5000/- for both tyres, he uses the bike to travel to office which is like 12 kms a day and whenever he has the mood he goes for some ripping on the highways.

                          Can someone advice please?

                          • Hey guys, how soon does the clutch plates need replacement? I'm now having lil trouble. Last week I had to change the clutch cable due to cable split at the lever end. Even with the new cable, it had to be adjusted almost to 3/4 the adjustment leeway.

                            Besides, valves and tappets needs to be adjusted. At higher revs the engine feels stressed...

                            And oh... all these just when the ride turned 1year.

                                check your clutch settings,tyre pressure,lean while riding,dont do half clutch riding/racing,use less brake/clutch,don't keep braking and accelerating
