    He's from Chennai, working at Blr. Has a white RTR 180 with jugaad end pipe. Roars beyond 4000 rpm. But, he's facing an issue post 7000 rpm.
    5-6 boys had come down to Pondy. I know the founder, Narayanan, hefty guy, rides a grey 160.

        Thanks for the replies.
        You guys were right, i was meddling with the drain screw...
        Now one more doubt... when i'm riding, when i hold the clutch the RPM comes down to 2k and then slowly decreases to the actual idle... what does this mean? Is my bike running rich or lean?

        Thanks kantu for quoting the pic, it was helpful.

          which means that your ABS is turned off. you can find an ABS switch on your console board (little inside) on the top left side. press that for 2 secs when the bike is on.

            It is but very slightly!


            Got my major servicing done! The bike now happily reaches 115+ kmph. Parts replaced include Plate Clutch Drive Set (Rs 489), Plate Clutch Driven Set(Rs 130), Disc Clutch Pressure(Rs 121), Carb Diaphragm(Rs 506) & Head lamp
            A whooping bill of Rs 2267

              Bro dont press abs button on console for more than 5 secs it will be rset otherwise
              And abs sensor might be faulty?? Chechk for that
              And try by putting ur bike on big stand and then press abs button and turn it off and then drive and then come back and then switchoff ignition and then after 15sec again turn on ignition Abs light wil start blinking if it doesnt then s urely there is some problem with the wiring of sensors or problem with yhe sensor
              And i repeat dont press ABS console button more than 6 secs ......read the manaul for the reason
              Hope it helps u buddy

              • Guys, the hiccup problem is back Though it is very very less as compared to earlier (I had got the carb cleaned),probably it might be the TPS issue.
                What say guys?

                  • Want to share something here, our very own Shiwaan opened the carb y'day morning to clean it, and I came to know about this when I saw his missed call at 8am. He actually forgot what he should do with one pipe as it was not fitting . That is the reason he went to svc today so that nothing should happen to his bike

                    Coming to my bike, went for 10th Service today, nothing major, but those people added the additives of 175INR without asking, total bill came to 840INR. Although the CO level was a little high which he fixed.
                    Fare thee well xBhp, All the best for being the biggest name in corporate world

                      • A Video was posted by TVS on fb, but they removed it now, dunno why! It contained kind of intro by TVS of the new bike and a little talk by a Design personnel. Here is the link, hope it get's back on:

                          • hey guys you think that those tailpiece or tail cowl and the headlamp will fit in our bike?
                            When I Ride my bike I don't feel like a common man.
                            I feel special.
                            I feel something which is beyond words.
                            That is the thing which makes my bike special, me special, the whole ride seem exceptional .

                              Hiccups may occur due low fuel level in bowl. Better to have the fuel filter and float level checked once.
