Bro.. I tend to believe its the problem with the sprocket. I've done everything I could think of, including changing the chain link. But to no avail.Originally posted by pankajsingh5k View PostI am also hearing this kut kut sound from the front sprocket . I was thinking that the chain is too tight and so took my bike to a nearby SVC( New and small SVC). The mechanic checked the chain and found out the chain slack is not equal in all parts. The supervisor told me that the rear spocket is damaged and will need to be changed & the cost to be around 1000. The sound is coming from the front spocket and so i will wisely ignore his finding that the rear spocket is damaged.
i asked if it could be replaced under warranty but he said that sprockets and chain are not covered under warranty.
.
BTW, the chain and sprocket, as a set comes to 970. So his saying 1000 is not entirely wrong.
Anyway, I'll change the sprockets sooner than later. I'll update the status then!

This is normal. You dont have to worry about it...Originally posted by avi91 View PostMy bike is having some unusual problem... when my engine heats up after ripping it tends to take idling at 2k. even after pressing the clutch it does not come down to the normal idling. Do you guys have any idea about it??

Need your advice friends...
Hello Friends,
I need your advice regarding the Engine oil change for my Menace. It has run 9500 kms and I'm planning to shift to fully synthetic oil (Castrol power 1 racing, agip racing, motul etc...). Should I change the oil seal too or can I go ahead only with oil change? Also please recommend the best fully synthetic oil available for the Menace because I will be taking her down to chennai for the "california superbike School" training camp on 27th of this month.
P.S : Budget is not a constraint if the performance is upto the mark. So please recommend accordingly.
Thanks in advance

Hey can some one tell what is the right time to shift to a Full Synth? Is there is specific order of oil changes which we should abide by?Originally posted by blazing180 View PostSame here.....i ahev used MOTUL Semi Syn 15w50 it was good

For e.g Mineral Oil for first 'x'000 kms --> SS for the next 'x'000 kms --> and finally FS?
I read about engine oils in one of the post in Help me section. However, it would be of great help if some one can explain this specifically for RTR 180.

There is no specific order. Just that it is recommended to stick to mineral oil at the initial stages (just make sure to change it every 1k kms or so). You can then shift to SS or FS oil after the first couple of thousand kms depending on riding condition and budgetOriginally posted by Lord_Neo View PostHey can some one tell what is the right time to shift to a Full Synth?

For city riding, a good SS oil is more than sufficient. Just try and stick to the grade xW40 for this bike.
You should change your oil filter at every oil change.Originally posted by kpsr17 View Post^^What about the oil filter change??Is it required?? What about castrol power 1 racing, agip racing and motul 300v oils?? which one's better??कृपया यहाँ पर ज्ञान न बांटे

Cone-set.Originally posted by pranav_salieri View Posti get some strange sound from the handle bar(where the RTR logo is) after i cross 4k rpm.what could be the problem
You need to replace it.And if you have crossed the mileage of 10k km,it won't come for free (warranty!)..If you ride like there's no tomorrow...worry not there won't be!
