          For me it looks optimum The tips show light brown kind of color.
          The Apache is ever willing to red line each cog, but the Rider ain't. Enjoy RTR, Safely. Period.

            The tuning is good , no need to fiddle with it the colour is chocalate brown which i believe is the optimum mix.

                  • Any existing abs owner help me out.is abs version worth a thought?
                    and the question remains why do i race?
                    every finishing line is the begining of a new race.

                    #i have learnt to manipulate my own adrenaline and the perception of biking is different.
                    #overkill is underrated.
                    #how random roads may appear there is always a destination.sigpic
                    #i don't subscribe to co-incidence,either it is the rider or the other moron on the road

                    (:)people keeps on saying add spark to life, bajaj got hold of that idea and added an extra spark to bike.

                      You dont need an ABS owner to say that! If you can afford it, just go for it...
                      It's always better to lose a second in life than to lose life in a second!

                        I asked a mechanic about the noise at the showroom where i bought d bike. He said the roller bearings at tappet are making the noise. I told him to show an opened cylinder head bcoz i wanted to see whether those are really the bearings which are making noise..
                        I noticed that there was about 2 mm gap on each side of every bearing, so I believed the mechanic's words to somewhat extent...let's see the result of 1st servicing as he said this noise will disappear in next servicings...

                          ABS costs 10K more. But if it saves even one crash, it will be more than worth,IMHO.

                          It's simple: if you can afford it, get an ABS model. To ensure, the ABS works flawlessly in this bike.

                                i ignored the sound when i bought the bike because i also thought after some running it will go away and about the rpm if i want to make it stable at any point it doesn't its unstable dancing up down and one mechanic in my town said that he will correct it but i don't believe him and dude after ripping the bike do you experience some kind of increase in sound??? or a lag in bike??
