    Using Fully synthetic oil in my bike CBZ Classic has helped me to a certain extent to overcome this problem of vibes, I think it can work for you as well in RTR.

    Do check it out If you have crossed 5-6k kms mark

            Refer manual. Or if u do not have it, in odo mode, keep the lower button presed for few seconds and rest is just like digital clock.
            There's lot to it other than saddle....

                    9.9 secs is the default time whenever you will reset the timer it will be the same. And the center stand sometimes scraps when riding single forget double, it always does.
                    Yes, it takes sometime while switching the ignitions of or on for the meters to respond.
                    Never upgrade without getting your basics RIGHT.

                      Changed my engine oil to Castrol Power 1. The engine has become more free revving and the gearbox has become really smooth. Went for a 170 km ride and didnt have a single false neutral after the oil change. But still the vibes are whats pissing me off.

                        even if you'll be putting the worlds most best and expensive oil in this engine you cant really be able to iron out the vibes completely this engine produces, courtsey the short stroke and high revving nature.

                            Yeah its true....its the work of the NVH(noise Vivration and harshness) team of the TVS racing engineering team that can do something abt it...may be some better and stronger mounting point of the engine can help it out....2 cut the vibration of the engine getting into the body..

                            i am sure they will be looking into it..and i hope the next 220 or so bike have this thing sorted out..

                              it's default as jasmeet told

                              one more issue is the centre stand hitting the speed breaker whn i ride wid a pillion..is is the same wid all of u guys??
                              there's a bobbin below the exhaust.Try a smaller one.The one it comes with is quite thick.I did the same and it helps to an extent

                              and whn i turn on or off the key....it takes some time 2 react..i mean 2 on and off..as if it responds bit late
                              it does take some time
                              ...
                              answers in bold...
                              It all begins with a thumb-start -- Oh, wait, I forgot the kill-switch
