    He wants to change the body panels (tank,assembly,etc) from white to matt grey.What will be the cost of those parts?Repainting is an option,but i think that RTR's grey is very difficult to match that comes with the stock.
    Guys,anyone please?

      Only thing that comes to my mind is TPS issue.

      Has the break pads been changed recently or when it was changed. Check whether they have been installed correctly...If yes check whether there is air bubbles.

      Try to get the color code of TVS matt grey, go to a good painter and get the parts painted.

        Is it the TPS problem or anything else?

        Guys,the hiccup is still thereThough it is less than it used to be earlier.
        Took it again to the nearest TVS SC, he said that the above hiccup is not there and if it occurs once again it's better to change the TPS.
        While riding back home, again the hiccup/jerks was noticeable but was less.
        I think it might be because of adulterated petrol, or is it the TPS? Should i drain out the petrol? Help me guys

            Nope Bro and thanks for the quick reply Took my bike to three TVS SC and they didn't told anything about carb cleaning.
            My bike has done 8500 kms on odo, isn't that early to clean the carb?

              Who knows what all petrol had with it ... Get the carb cleaned and get your tank flushed from inside. SVC will do it for you.

                    Hi Guys..Has anybody tried Osram Night Breaker or Philips Xtreme Power in the bikes. Is it direct fit and do we need to convert to complete DC for the change?
                    Any idea how much those bulbs cost?
                    Also will it cause any overheat which will effect the headlamp assembly
                    Also @prateek you had fit this blue-eye headlamps (sorry if I've used the wrong term ), right?
                    What is the price for the same yaar?
                    Also I have a silly doubt on it. How will you be able to ride with those in night. I mean is it just that blue color stuff with normal headlamps in the middle & you can use both of them together?

                      Stock bulb is of 35W as long as you stick to this no issues.

                      I think that is Angel Eye + Projector set up, the one in pic has only angel eyes or what ever

                        As said by Kantu mine is Projector + HID + Angel Eye set up.... The blue one in pic is the angel eye for which I have got separate switch. The projector + hid set up works in night and this blue angel eye is just 'tashan'... no practicality . I got these from www.mxsmotosport.com at 5k including fitting. But now here in Delhi, projector 'thingy' is booming and one can get at much lesser price.

                          Thanks for the info guys..
                          Any idea about the cost of those bulbs??
                          Also I fear if any over-heating happens by doing the same.
                          @prateek did you convert to complete dc for applying those changes??

                                Get it done from the SVC, at least if something goes wrong you can hold them. It wont effect the mileage but do ask them to set the AFR perfectly
