I had the exact same problem of air leak from the side of rim.. everyone suggested to replace the rim as it is bent, but visually it looked fine. So I just got the tyre removed from the rim & there was massive dust/dirt on the inside near the beading area. Air leak was solved after cleaning it properly.

Same might be your case too. The tyre shop guy was very reluctant to do my bidding and was confident that it could not be solved, but he had a nice surprise later

Thank you so much for the information i shall try it and hopefully the issue will be gone.

I am currently running on front MRF FX 100/80 17" and rear MRF Zapper C 120/80 17" on my bike and i feel there's no problem whatsoever with the bike, though the tyres are of different spec. The bike turns in more easily n quickly though u might feel its a bit heavy at first. If cornering is what u want then the R15V2.0 tyre setup would do very well.

0.07 intake and 0.09 exhaust, do it on cold engine.

Re: TVS Apache RTR 180

had anybody tried flipping the gear and brake lever 180 degrees in order to get your feet at the pillion foot pegs.

i think it would give a much more aggressive stance + better comfort while leaning on tank at high speeds.

Re: TVS Apache RTR 180

Hi Everyone,

After a long ride my 180 rtr rpm increases up to 2 and after a few secs comes down to 1 and turns off. I have got the carb cleaned and valves checked, all fine.
Has any one face this sort of issue.
Any advise. Thank you.

Re: Introduction!!

@neal961 : Welcome to xbhp mate!!

I just have one suggestion and dont take it wrongly

Please install rear view mirrors asap! That is a safety device and one can never take the driver/rider behind for granted! However skilled a rider is, he should always be aware of his surroundings and mirrors play the most important role in that.

Hope the mirrors will be back soon

Wish you many more miles on the RTR!
