          • How much does the front fork of your bike get inside? Because mine one feels very hard and doesnt go in dat much and dat easily compared to a 220 whose front suspension feels like a sponge.
            You can only ride better tomorrow if you ride safe today.

            • RTR family has stiffer spring setup both front and rear, aids superbly in cornering, the pulsars suspension were always tuned for comfortable ride, 220 shares the same rear shocks with the discover 100 cc, and it's front dives more quickly, but both RTR and 220 bottoms out under hard breaking, and while diving into a steep corner.

                Ok thanks. And my AFR ratio still isnt properly set. I dont trust the SVC guys. Is there any way i can get it done properly? My bike keeps giving hiccups at and around 3k rpm. A lot of the 180 owners here seem to have this commom problem.

                • hiccups at low RPM indicates, clogged air filter, and clogged slow jet, if both are clear, then make the mixture rich by half turns, but tell me one things, are you facing hiccups at cold engine or hot??

                              cold is common, but to eliminate hiccups, make the mixture rich by half turns.....

                              dont trust the metre, it never shows the current readings
