    Lolz. How do you think i came to know about the source of the sound without getting down on knees!!

    When the caliper was pressed towards the wheel i.e away from me,the noise stopped.

Guys, any idea what would be the reason for the noise? It sounds as if the disc is screeching against another metal. The rear brake still has enough bite, so i dont think the brake pads have completely shaved off.

      Yes, i think the pads have worn out, may be one of them and the metal part at the limit of it is causing the noice.

      sproaket wont be making such noices untill one is running a set of worn out chain.

        Hey Guys,
        Received a call from TVS showroom asking about feedback..!! There was not much to give lol...but that girl was not knowing anything about RTR's lol..

        I told her that I am facing problem with my tachometer...and she was like.."what's that..?" I tried to explain her with RPM meter..i thought she would get that..!! but...

        I think it's better they don't call me if such a people are there to handle to bikes..!!

        So, I was saying is it a chief decision to let a good mechanic (which I personally trust and know is intelligent ) to open up my bike or make any repairs into it..?? The reason am asking that is my bike has just finished 9 months and is still under warranty but the bike is screaming loud to have a good mechanic's hand on it coz TVS here...what to say a lil' bit lazy..!! (I mean no active.!! )

        I personally thinks, there goes some problem into my engine..some extra noises coming to play after a small constant 60km/hr~100km/hr run for a looooong stretch some days ago..!! (bike serviced just 2 weeks ago)

        @Swagat Golden rims...looks kewl..!!
        My bike had this kind of a problem twice and both the times the culprit was silencer connection from engine. It was loose and once tightened it was fine and the good thing is you can check this yourself and tighten the two screws yourself.

          the service guys while servicing had not tightened my silencer connection from engine when they did something n when i was on my way to college weird sounds started coming from bike as if i put a booster and smoke from engine.., man i was worried then.
          i took it to a local mechanic n he fixed the prob n when i asked the service guys all they had to say is we don't know how it happened :P

                  Nops. Just inform the service center about it. I think they might have the rest of the details about the pending services and all. They also can arrange for another booklet.

                      Never argue with an idiot. He will drag you down to his level and then beat you with experience.

                        90/90 Zapper FS would be the ideal upgrade. It's the same one which does its duty on P220.
