      • i rode the bike today for 84kms and on the stretch i did a 75km/hr for 3-4 kms or so while i was not looking at the speedo...is this gonna affect my run-in period??
        moreover my gears seems to be a little hard and i get false neutrals most of the time..
        can something be done over this issue?

              Take it a little easy during the first few hundred km. Don't think the engine will get effected but it's better to hold on till the 1st service at least. More than the speedo, look at the tacho and try to remain below 4.5k rpm on all gears.

              The gears will smoothen out. Just be gentle and patient

                yes bike will still pass puc easily . to open exhaust , cutting and welding back is required .

                    woah woah... take it a little easy bro. . wats the hurry. . do NOT stress the engine atleast till 800 kms. . . since its a quick bike u will feel like raising the throttle . . but keep ur hands steady. . let the engine parts have a set in ... let the bike get accustomed to ur kinda riding . . .then start ripping. . read the manual!

                    ride safe but!!!

                        Tires are not covered under warranty, and as the pic suggest, it has got only a cut, in the outer area only (area under TWI).
                        So its all safe.
                        no worries.
                        thanks man....I m living with these tires for next 1000 kms...

                                I hope you didnt mean the brake pads. And does both the plates cost 1400 bucks?

                                Btw, Guys RTR met with an accident last friday when my brother's friend was having a ride on it. While he was trying to stop the front end gave up and skidded on loose gravels on a wet road. Front Visor has got a scratch(typical Apache's scar), the rear brake pedal has got twisted, the RHS Indicator(scratched), mirror(broken),front brake lever(scratched) and the silencer shield(scratched). The rear body panel has also got some scratches and it looks dirty now.

                                Boy's parents have agreed to bear the repair expenses.Thankfully the rider suffered minor bruises and yes he didnt blame the tyre!!
