2T Oil ? you mean shell 2T oil ? the manual says Iftex, Penzoil etc , is that also ok ?

that is what i do...when i stop hearing fuel splashing here and there in tank i know its time to get refilled. but the when the fuel indicator is full ,oddly it feels very self satisfying.

Also guys do any of you do the zig zag driving on stock TVS tyres(on dry road )??? i think it helps to navigate through traffic more easily.

Castrol makes a 2t called POWER TT which contains PIB.this particular additive prevents petrol from fragmenting and controls the spray droplets to uniform size.This helps in preventing pre ignition and also homogenized combustion.This was used extensively in avaition fuel to prevent petrol tank burst when hit by artillery,during WW 2.
This property also makes the engine run smoother,and i had been using it in both my KB100 and Petrol Lancer.Any 2T oil meeting or surpassing the JASO smoke test FC level will mostly contain PIB
I had not used the oils mentioned by you so cannot comment.

yes i am doing it.. the reason of zigzagging though is its superior handling, nimble control and great response

However there is a disappointment. TVS victor is a great handler among the 110 cc bikes of its time. its road grip is amazing, and i remember scratching my foot pegs a number of times on the corners. however RTR disappoints. As soon as i have cornered just enough, the tyres tend to give that negative feedback which means i have to stop tilting it further. This, was not expected

Hey Couldnt Find Power TT , but found this in my locality . It says there it meets JASO test , is that ok since being a 2 stroke oil(2T) and btw what is TT Oil ? couldnt find it in that site also

Where to give service?

hey guys..I am Vivek from chennai..i am not satisfied with the way in which service is done at Adyar Ramkay...plz just where can i give my RTR 180 for service...Castrol Bike point..?i heard is good....plz help..

Yes the Power 1 2T will sufice since it meets the JASO FC standard,which is for low ash content.
PIB is added for getting this rating.

Lolz...Same feeling here!!

And still RTR is one of the best handling bikes available in the country!!

Hey guys can anyone tell me the OTR price of this bike in Pune, thinking of swaping my ZMA for the RTR180. thanks.

Rtr

Well got to say that my RTR is giving me an avg of anything from 42kms to 52kms driven on bombay highways and revved a few times driving between 50kms to 70kms on normal usage.Love the way the bike makes u feel even with the front suspension not so gr8 which gives a thud sound on a pothole even at low speeds of 30kms and even worse are the Tires they slip on wet roads and the Fuel guage is erratic and my top speed shows as 160kms and 0to60 shows as 2.25sec still i can say no bike can ever give u the feel and the pleasure of driving like RTR.......

Something around 76k. Not sure, call the showroom rather

same feelings. Average not yet calculated.

I noticed 1 thing today. i got off my bike, and revved it to 5-6k RPM. at specifically 5k rpm, the visor of the bike was making an irritating sound, specifically from the left hand side. it was like when a vibrating thing touches something stationary. I am aware of the slight vibs, but specifically from 1 area of the visor didnt made sense.. any of you noticed the same?

I thought RTR 180 shows 180 , mine shows 160 now

Welcome to the tribe

Yup the mileage should be pretty high when you ride below 4-5k rpm.
I get between 35-40 kpl and I'm rarely below 4k

Get the suspension piston checked

The thud sound is due to the suspension piston. Its a common problem in all TVS bikes but it can be rectified. Refer to one of my posts previously, when the pressure in the piston gets disturbed it throws such sound i faced the same but got it rectified, as it grew like anything and even on slightest jerk it started giving tak-tak sound.

Also guys this is for all those who are getting screaming sound from front or rear disc pads, well we all know when we get the disc pads installed they are a bit tight and this is a general excuse that SVC guys give us that as and when they will get rubbed things will settle down..........CRAP its all CRAP what they say........i have rectified the sound, just go to any local mechanic, ask to open the disc assembly now if u see on the back side of PAD there will be kind of two cylinders.
THe reason why we get that chiiiiii-chiiiiiiiiiiii sound is that when u apply breaks then those two (i should call not exactly cylinders rather but sort of) they expand but if they dont retain theri position on releasing the brakes, the disc gets started rubbing against them.
Just add 1-2 drops of oil,,,yes i am saying OIL...all they say ki "ismein oil nahi daalte hain".........crap its my personnal experience, apply few drops then press and release the brakes for couple of times.
Do this for sometimes so that those two will get lubricated properly.
Tighten up the brakes assembly and check........it did wonders for me,brakes are running smooth without any crunching sound ......

Absolutely true.....

THats absolutely true..! i mean i had a taste of u know what they call:THE fastest indian and even R15
But the kind of punch that this machine gives u is totally unbeatable upto 200CC segment.

Wowo....i was just wondering i just had a fight with a R15 rider, i was just wondering no matter if it is a liquid cooled then also engine size does matters. I mean 150 and 180 makes a difference, i beated it in pickup as it was a city race, but just wanted to know opinions ........guys what u think abt this
