Hey guys

i maintain pressures 25psi upfront and 30psi rear, and checks every weekend

Is this good enough for optimum handling, especially around corners as well as under braking ?

Loving my ride ever more each day... So happy to know from the thread (correct me if i am wrong

) that the A180, is kind of like THE 4 stroke successor of the Suzuki Shogun

Yeah, that's genuinely COOL!!!

I keep 25/32 psi in Front/Rear Tyre!

Thank you bro for your feedback

But, if one is riding solo (almost 80% of the time), would there be enough road contact when loaded with 32psi at the rear

Yes, it will be. The company recommends 35. Haxor already told you with his manipulations

Company recommends: 25/28(solo), 25/32(double).

I keep 25/32.

Mine has a sticker which says 25/28(solo), 25/30(double). Strange....

Hey guys, recently changed both front and rear to zappers. couldnt get 110/80 anywhere so had to fit 120/80 at rear. now the guy who fitted the tyres filled 30 in front saying it will lose pressure. I still feel it should be 25. any help?

Front should be 25 if its 90/90.Could you please post some pics of your bike with the new tyres?

And I thought that I read 25/35 (for double obviously) from the sticker. itself

2500 INR. 110 wasnt in stock and not sure about the price. Must be the same i guess

**iBerry** · 05-27-2011, 09:05 PM

Had given my bike to service center for general servicing and the mech ruined my carb setting.. The rpm needle gets stuck at 2000rpm and then slowly comes down to 1000rpm(rises fast but drops very slowly), idles for a bit and then shuts off. It gets worse after an hour of riding. Too much vibes and noisy engine. I remember there was a video here of RTR 180 carb tuning but I can't find it. Turning the air/fuel screw clockwise makes it rich or lean? Can someone here please tell me how to tune my carb and get my original factory setting?

I have a doubt guys,i would like to know which among the following scenarios will have faster acceleration if general conditions are considered same.
Scenario1:-Bike in 1st gear accelerating from 30-50
S2:-Bike in 3rd gear accelerating from 30-50
S3:-5th gear accelerating from 30-50

Thanks is advance

Dude, i know that knowing when to change gears is not rocket science, anyone will know it after riding for sometime, i also do know that redlining is not good for the bike and unnecessary, i know when to shift the damn gears... all i wanted to know was which of those scenarios has has the faster acceleration and which has the lowest,i wasnt able to figure that out since i cant ride with a stopwatch in one hand, and you are giving me lessons on when to change gears instead <_<

If you knew this much you wouldn't put those silly scenarios above..

Try to do 30-50kph in 5th and your bike will start to cry khaccccccccchhhhh-khaccccccccchhhhh

You are trying to do 30-50 in first gear and you tell you know redlining the engine is not good? Good!

And if you are damn good at shifting gears,let me also remind you of one more scenario that you had forgotten to add here..

S4: 30-50kph in second gear..That's the fastest way to reach there.

If you think you need a stopwatch for this,then you should buy one asap.

Not trying to start a war here but I never said you are naive or dumb at gear-shifting! You might say,it isn't rocket science but the way you replied was like hearing a comment from a NASA scientist..

Keep it cool,buddy.How does it matter to me if you are brilliant/good/bad/worst at it?

You dont need to tell me whether i should buy a stop watch or not, i posted something, if you want to reply to it straight, do it, dont just blabber anything because you wanted to... i dont even want to read your entire post, how can you even write so much .... ....
