          So you noticed immediate solution to the problem after he fixed it?

            i did notice the difference. But am not sure if only that solved the problem. Coz lots of things were done during that service!

              Yeah, your bike always goes through a lot of 'things' whenevr it visits the svc!!

              Btw, did they change the spark plug/cable or any other relevant stuff for curing the problem?

                  if you want flying start off the line you have to leave the clutch at 4500-5000....

                  set ur RPM when the bike is "hot" with ur headlight "ON" at 1400-1500...




                  dont go with the speedo go with the tacho...
                  if it's goin to 135kmph in 5000RPM then it's completely safe for the engine during the running in...
                  as you've done with the first serv keep ur bike below 5000RPM and short bursts to 6000 is OK till 1000kms...


                  thanx renni,, my bike s covered arnd 800 km rarely did i take it abv 4000, though top speed s 81 and dat too i did with a very heavy heart.. now im gonna be more liberal with myself.

                      Exactly!
                      Your biking tells a lot about the person you are!

                      • Has anybody booked the white color 180 in b'lore recently (in the month of august)? I have booked it on first of this month and still waiting.

                        Spoke to a guy from TVS who says they didn't expected such a demand for White RTR and they don't have stock. He says it might take another week or so to hit the showrooms.

                        Black and grey are available though!!!!!

                          Even i heard about the dearth of availaiblity of the white 180s in Blore.Dont know what's the reason, but the black was readily available.

                          The White RTR is certainly in demand but then it should not take much time for the stock to arrive in Blore.

                            Nope pulg was changed in the last serviced and the cable is still stock....the plug cap had burnt once...so i replaced it!

                            Is the 180's silencer longer than the 160's?
