Did you give the bike a power wash before the ignition problem started...??Originally posted by sambit View PostComment

No. I wash my bike myself,with descent throw speed(normal municipality pipe).But I guess the ignition has gone kaput. may be I need to change the whole set. But it is happening sometimes.once in 2 days.so what if it still exist after the change? thats why I am a bit skeptical to change.Originally posted by vivekgautams View PostHH Dawn - TVS Star City - Yamaha Gladiator - TVS RTR 180 - Honda CBR 250R - Yamaha R3Comment

During the power wash in first free service at a TVS SVC, water entered into the wiring & the wires were getting grounded..The Tacho-meter would do the initial check & go back to zero & all other indicator lamps on the console stopped glowing..Got the wires changed under warranty & the same console worked properly...Originally posted by sambit View Post
Water due to a wash/rain might be the culprit,I guess...Get the wires checked first...If your bike is under warranty,no tension..Comment

Burning smell... what kind of burning smell, plastic, oil burning??? Do a visual check all over. In most cases it will be some debris sticking on the underside of the engine case and burning (happened a lot to meOriginally posted by shahbaz63 View Post
)
Chain getting loose more often usually happen if the alignment is not proper. The indication marks on the adjuster need not always be accurate. Also, this happens often when the chain n sprocket are nearing the end of its service life. Depends on usage. I've had chains last 30k, and less than 8k.Comment

A new set of drive chain along with two sprockets (front and rear) costs 1000 INR here in my place.Originally posted by shahbaz63 View Post
Do check with the SVC whether it's really time to replace it.The Apache is ever willing to red line each cog, but the Rider ain't. Enjoy RTR, Safely. Period.Comment

Can Anyone tell me the best chain sprocket available for RTR180. did 20000km on my odo. svc people said its time to change. whole set costs around Rs.1100. I wanted to see any other option available before changing.Originally posted by Rtrlover83 View PostComment

I wanted to know the average life of a spark plug..

Re: TVS Apache RTR 180
OEM is Rolon. That's good enough. Else you can go for Diamond which is reportedly good, no personal experience thoughOriginally posted by whiteknight View Post
Depends on the condition of your engine. On a healthy engine it lasts really long. Go by the manual unless you have any issuesOriginally posted by vivekgautams View Post
