    Re: TVS Apache RTR 180

    Hey Guys,

    I started the bike after a week and the bike started but the engine died within a few seconds. Then I engaged choke and started the bike, it started with 1 kick but the rpm shot upto 4k and the bike was like screaming. I let it run for 10-15 seconds and disengaged the choke.
    Do the rpms shoot up like this when we engage choke?

        Can you please tell me how long do I need to keep the choke engaged when I start the bike for the first time after a long time?

          It depends on the temp attained by the bike.
          Pull the choke too long and the bike will stutter , pull it for short time and it would sleep again, I personally never used choke though, but sense if the bike reached an optimum temperature and then let go off the choke

                      Thanks for the reply. I've cleaned the abs sensors and cable and all electrical junctions(relays, HECU connector,etc..) with brake cleaner spray. It seems to have solved the issue.

                      I'm not sure which one of the speedometer cables is/was faulty, both the wheels on the ABS model have speed sensors.Console is working fine,now.

                          As per parts catalog its Rs5000
                          Tried powder coating it, might solve the issue

                                Finally completed a year with my steed.
                                A year & 5700km later the bike is running like new. No mechanical problems at all.
                                Couple of minor problems like chain cover rattling, vibrations in the speedometer console. But all sorted out.
                                I had put in shell ax7 at 5020 km. Still going good. Very good oil for cruising all day at 80kmph. But the vibrations take a toll on your fingers. They turn numb after an hour of cruising around.
                                Next oil change scheduled at 7000km.
