      • Apache RTR 180 Run-in Period Ending Questions

        Hi everyone..i own an apache rtr 180 and am about to finish the engine running-in period.I did a little revivng and a few bursts of high speed during this time but never crossed 60 and the high speeds lasted for around 20-30 seconds.I would like to know did i damage the engine in anyway and also now that i have completed the running in period how much can i push the engine?Can i take it above 4k rpms and should i try going for top speeds.Also 1 last thing will there be alot of vibrations above the 4k rpm range?Thank You

            Done with around 2000 kms with Motul 7100 FS. The oil is behaving extremely well even after back to back long rides and high speed riding. I earlier reported issues of sluggish performance and lack of top speed and got the tuning done by SVC mech. Now the performance is back I hit a top of 134 (personal best) and the bike is returning a mileage of 42 kmpl !!

            • today while riding on my friend's rtr while maneuvering at parking speed i felt front wheel kinda wobbling.what is the issue folks?
              and the question remains why do i race?

                    i think his forks might be slightly bent! find an empty and safe stretch and try riding the bike leaving both ur hands. if the bike pulls to a side, then the forks are bent!
                    also check the cone set!

                    hey, welcome to xbhp !
                    if u completed 1000 kms sanely, gradually increase ur speed by 10 km/hr for every 100 kms ridden! yes u can go above 4k rpm but dont redline it just as yet!
                    for now atleast till ur 3 services it is preferable to use tvs true4 that the svc guys use!

                            • The problem i am facing from quite some time is that my bike gets stuck on neutral alot of times...and this is really frustrating in traffic when i stop and then start again only to realize that its not gone into 2nd gear but instead stuck on neutral....does this happen because there is a problem in the bike??should i change the engine oil i have just done 1000kms!

                                It's not a problem with the bike. Up-shifting to 2nd gear perfectly is not easy at the beginning and takes more time and practice. Nothing to worry. Just give little more push to the gear lever.

                                I presume your first service is over and have replaced oil and filter. If that's the case it's ok, otherwise do it asap.
                                The Apache is ever willing to red line each cog, but the Rider ain't. Enjoy RTR, Safely. Period.
