    Checkd thrice paid almost 500 till now, no result guess they will come with Head replacement this time which is gonna cost me good 2500 bucks. !!!

    Time to sell my bike soon...
    Well I was stuck in the same situation but din't have an option of a new ride.. I'v ended up paying some 700 ,3 times but was of no effect.. But now I am very happy that I replaced the head.. Now my bike is super smooth,performance has improved & is returning constant 42+ kmpl even after city ripping & highway rides of 96-105 kmph..
    My 2 cents would be that you do the same..Its better to spend 4 digits rather than shelling out 6 digits..!!

      Apache 150 issue

      Hello friends . I am facing two different issues after servicing my bike from a new mech as my older mech has only one answer for all issues in bike.

      1)I have changed the head gasket seal as there was leakage from engine head. now after changing it engine sound have changed .Mech have also adjusted the tappets. I have changed the engine oil to semi synthetic.
      2)Average is reduced to 53 kmpl.

          Alloy bent, get it checked. Never heard that painting can solve this thing.

            I suggest you to check the wear & tear of your tyre once again. Because leakage of air through rim is not possible in my opinion..

                  [MENTION=43320]VinayakVerma[/MENTION] : A video would do. A150 giving 50 is a good figure imo. We 180users are happy with 35-40 bracket

                    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

                      You should get the time chain adjusted.. Once that is done, your FE should be back to normal & get the carb. cleaned & the Fuel-Air ratio tuned..
