      That 'Roughness' has its charm !
      RTR always reminds me my days of two strokes, loud, rough, vibrations and all !

        I would be more content if, I get to ride some other Apache and find out that it is lunatic too!

        Long time, Renny! How 're you managing without 2-wheels, mate?! Phew!

              No single cylinder, please!
              Pick up a second hand Ninja, man. OT!

              One thing I understood as soon as I got on my Apache - if you want it to perform at its peak all the time, you gotta either be a grease monkey or hire a personal mechanic!

              If only my bike looked like this....
              .....


              Ah! What a life it 'd have been!

                  • Got my self starter motor replaced under warranty, but for that he opened up one way clutch to check if its faulty for some noise during starting the bike. Now noise is sorted out , but gear box has become rough Already running full synthetic oil ! Clutch play is also OK, what should be done ?

                        Yes it can be done. If you are familiar with setting it yourself on P180 its not that different, else take it to mech or refer manual for a DIY

                          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
                          Thanx bro for your advice but it is nt happening. Let me tell u wat had happened before this problem cropped up. The mettalic CLAMP of the front tooth wheel sensor had broken and i got it replaced so meanwhile i had to remove the sensor from its place and had it taped to the mirror and the ABS light showed error as it stayed lit while driving .After i got that clamp replced and put the sensor back in its place the ABS light wont get off. I stay in a rural place and the nearest svc center is very far. i had called the engineer but he couldnt be of much help.
                          Any suggestions on wat to do now wud be appreciated. TIA

                            • I've a peculiar problem. I replaced my rear disc plate as they were nearing the end of its service life. A few hundred kms later, replaced the disc pads also. And this pad started giving this slight but irritating squeaking noise when tyre rotates forward. I thought it was duplicate pads since any amount of cleaning, overall etc would not solve it. So last friday got a new pad set and replaced. Now this has also started squeaking....
                              Anyone else facing this?
