it may seem dumb but please explain it from a layman point of view
If i know it is in reserve then how much fuel is still in tank??

every bike has more than two liters of fuel in reserve, enough to take you to the next petrol station.Originally posted by harish619 View PostHow to know when it is in reserve??

Pro kits are with TVS and I believe they do not intend to launch them anytime soon..Not even the Free-flow!Originally posted by badbikerboy View Postany kind of information about the PRO KITS???

Anyways,TVS guys are ready to change the whole silencer assembly of my RTR as because of rust.I've asked them if they can get me the free-flow from THE PRO-KIT because it's all under warranty!
If you ride like there's no tomorrow...worry not there won't be!

Forget the desire of yours in bolds, instead ask them for FI's silencer as it comes without the CAT, it may sound more good, but you'll be polluting the MOTHER NATURE my friend.Originally posted by shivank View PostAnyways,TVS guys are ready to change the whole silencer assembly of my RTR as because of rust.I've asked them if they can get me the free-flow from THE PRO-KIT because it's all under warranty!

Which RTR do you own RENNY. Is it 180 or 160 and how's its performance especially at speeds of 80kmh. Is it expensive on maintenance or just like Pulsars. Mine friend is getting a used RTR 160 FI(donot know about model) for 32000rs. The bike is in good condition with a whole service record and has done 12000kms. Is it a Deal Worth???Originally posted by rennycornelius View PostForget the desire of yours in bolds, instead ask them for FI's silencer as it comes without the CAT, it may sound more good, but you'll be polluting the MOTHER NATURE my friend.

I took my RTR for a weekend trip last week.
It was really good in hills.
And now to my query
When i started,i filled in 4 liters of petrol(the fuel cock was in main i.e. long side of the knob was facing down).There was 3 points in the fuel indicator..after some kms the orange fuel light lit up.
Now i didn't turn the fuel cock knob up..it was still down..after the light lit up i rode some 75~80 kms and suddenly the engine strutured to a stop.
i could not start it again even after turning the fuel knob up.but there was some fuel left in the tank..why is this??
what does the orange light suggest??
when should i turn the fuel cock knob up??
when is the bike using the reserve petrol??
My bike has done 540 kms.I have taken it today from the first service today only.
When i asked the TVS service center guys..they didn't know and yapped something.
Ur bike should have stopped when u had about 2 :1/2 ltr or about 2 ltr of petrol left in ur petrol tank bcoz u had the knob down (ON)......
normally the knob should be up (reserve ) when u have only 2 or 2:1/2 ltr of petrol ....
The orange light lites up when u have only about 1 ltr or 1:1/2 ltr of petrol in ur tank after u have used ur bike in reserve for some time ....
1st ASk svc to Check the knob it might not be working
2nd If it is not working Ask them for a replacement
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I had similar kind of issue on my bike, my bike used to run with my knob down (on) untill there is petrol left in the tank , it never used to go to reserve .... got a replacement from svc , its fine now .......Last edited by jasonkumar; 03-12-2010, 05:59 AM.

this just great & true alsoOriginally posted by rennycornelius View Post@harish619:

i have experienced the same problem with the fuel indicator
when it's actually reserve indicator shows you +1 bar on the "R"
after some km. suddenly drops tho "R" put the bike on side stand and that will show you again +1 bar over "R" again same after some km. drops to "R"
hey one thing noticed if you are running on reserve and if you put just 2 Ltr. of petrol indicator shows you 3 bars or some times (side stand) 1/2 tank hahahahaKinetic Honda (2stroke Owner "My Uncle") 1988 - SOLD Sep. 2010

change only oil filter, Oil get the air filter cleanedOriginally posted by avragha View PostHi Guys,

Thanks in advance

and if you don't have the problem don't open the carb. check break fluide,
specially if front fork doing THUD THUD sound check the oil level. and if you want to Polish (AUTO GLYM) dp not change the air filter till 5500km (on safe side) on ODO it'll save your engine for after mods don't use synthetic oil for 5500km. don't go beyond 4000 Rpm till 550km On ODO, don't go beyond 5500/6000 RPM till 1000 on ODO check run in on previous pages
don't mind if i am wrong somewhereKinetic Honda (2stroke Owner "My Uncle") 1988 - SOLD Sep. 2010
