His bike just need tappet adjustment, AFAIK. Its nothing horrible or to worry, just a normal task to be done. The tappets get loosened according to how much you rip your bike.Originally posted by Krish1417 View PostIts coming from the engine.The pick up has also decreased a bit.Its only 4200 kms old.Wondering what should i do now?Should i go ahead and book it?Please help me guys.And what's the mileage are you all getting guys?Join my facebook Page: Life On 2-Wheels | Blog: Life On 2-Wheels

Go ahead with your purchase or else the P220 if you are interested in more outright acceleration.

Hi guys,
have done 2800 kms in my A180 and after the 2nd servicing the bike was smooth for a few days but now i am facing a lot of vibes between 4-5k and a little over 5k rpm and bikes feels heavy(read: struggling) while accelerating in this rpm range. maybe partially this is because of the 10w30 engine oil and so i am going for an oil+oil filter change today from an outside mech.
Also guys why is that whenever the speeds go low in any gear the bike turns off and i have to take self to start again??

Idling of your bike is below the recommende setting of 1400 RPM. Check the tachometer when the speed go low in any of the gear. It should be howering below 1k RPM.Originally posted by pankajsingh5k View PostHi guys,
