        What kind of size is that? Go for 90/80/17 size. Try the new MRF tyres which can found in the news section. They have both front and back tyres for the RTR180.

          I would suggest to not go for decarbonization unless You fully trust the SVC guy. I had gone for the same on suggestion of My default SVC, and they screwed up My engine block pretty bad, which led to many oil leak issues later on and reboring of screw fittings of engine block costing about 7k. Luckily the other SVC I switched to later on was good and handled it properly.

They told that Anabond works well and should fix the oil leak. This is sort of an experiment I should say since I was asked to inform them immediately if I notice oil again. So far I have ridden 500 km and noticed no leaks. Kept my fingers crossed though.
          You were lucky to get it sorted out so easily and at least explained all this from start. I got the clarification after I went to a different SVC.

            My head gasket started leaking again, but not as much as it did earlier. I have to get it checked again.

            On a side note, I've changed the oil seals for the gear lever and sprocket since they were leaking oil pretty bad. SVC brushed off the issue saying I've used too much oil to lube the chain. Took the bike to my dad's mechanic. After opening the sprocket casing, it was pretty evident where all that oil was coming from. I don't understand why my bike has so many oil leak issues. The engine feels good though. It still responds as it did out of the showroom.

                Hello,

                I have some problem related to chain, and these happen sometimes:

                1."Cut" sound when you upshift
                2. Noise when you release the throttle. Can be heard going on a downhill with neutral and ignition off
                3. During stop and go traffic, after downshifting to 1st gear and changing to 2nd, it sometimes get stuck at neutral. Have to upshift one more time.


                Got it serviced last week at the SVC, but still no improvement.

                  It could be your clutch. How is your clutch play? Get it adjusted according to the recommended level.

                  I could be wrong, though. Let's wait to hear some senior speak

                    Best bet is Arunagiri TVS near Bommanahalli. If you can go further I suggest Jayanagar branch(Forgot name ).
                    Electronic City TVS are also ok but service isn't good(I actually rate bad the way they serviced my friend's RTR160).


                    PS: 2 months back I bought RTR160 from Indian TVS at Bellandur. They are ok but triple check pricing. Service is also better there. The only reason I dont suggest this because their registration is in Koramangala RTO(worst RTO), I haven't received my RC even after 2months and it might take another 2months according to SVC.

                      Hello. Can you please tell me if this will be a direct fit for the RTR 180 2010 (Older) model?

                      Thank you.

                        Hi,
                        Mechanically the motorcycle is the same. So yes, direct fit! Better go for masseters. Even better what mrf claims.

                          I'm very much interested in those tyres. Planning to get change both front and the rear together. Sorry if this has been asked/mentioned earlier, has anybody tried those tyres on the RTR? a better question, are the tyres in the market? :P

                            Hehe Totally understand. But you can save a lot of money with 120/80 sections. Those tyres are mentioned on their website, should be available soon or maybe already are.

                              Hello everyone! Wish you all a very happy new year! Hope everyone is doing fine. My 180 is doing great. Had to change the speedo meter sensor cable as the speedo was acting funny, was charged around ~600 which I think is high. I was using TVS fully synthetic oil but this time got the shell ultra with pure plus technology. I have used the old shell ultra a year or two back but this time I did feel the difference. After 1000km & 2 Mumbai-Pune ride, I can FEEL the engine performs better on longer ride. Looking forward for more longer rides (bored doing Mumbai-Pune-Mumbai & around from last six months).

                                Which synthetic engine oil?

                                Hello, fellow Apache riders,

                                Which is the most suitable synthetic engine oil for RTR 180? Please recommend based on your experience.

                                I am currently using TVS made synthetic oil. I am not sure if its due to engine oil, most of the time gear change in my bike is bit of a trouble.
                                Say, you are riding bike at 30-40 kmph and try to reduce gear while slowing down, bang, the gear wont shift down (no such prob when i up-shift). So i have to release clutch and slightly accelerate, before trying to shift gear down again. Has anybody faced this issue with your RTR?

                                This is more of a nuisance when i ride through roads with speed breakers every 100 meter



                                Edit: How is Shell Advance Ultra 10W-40? Any experience using it in your Apache? Does it make any noticeable difference (in a good way)
