It is called pinking..do not do it often or you will have engine problems later.Throttle gradually and in proper RPM range...shift at 3 K RPM for normal ride and at 5 K RPM for sportier ride.Originally posted by rahul 55 rocker View Post

I guess..if it is pinking...then u have to make the air fuel ratio Rich...and on top of that shift @4-5k for a normal ride....Riding at lower gears or at lower RPM may not reduce knocking..Originally posted by psr View PostIt is called pinking..do not do it often or you will have engine problems later.Throttle gradually and in proper RPM range...shift at 3 K RPM for normal ride and at 5 K RPM for sportier ride.

Yes...its aluminium or some alloy while cooling makes that noise...so as long as u are getting it...ur engine is fine ! ! !Originally posted by kantu View PostI get a tik tik sound when i park my engine after a long ride , read some where that it s the noise you get when engine is cooling ! is it so ?
Nothing feels better than to gear up and burn some rubber ! ! !

Wet roads... Not too bad grip !
It was raining here in Delhi so I had a chance to test the tyres.
And I must say it wasn't as bad
Or maybe I wasn't doing good enough speeds (around 60 kph). The grip was very decent (comparable to pulsars) and the braking was spot on (didn't try panic braking though... I believe you guys
).
And hopefully the front disc pads are clean now
.

Get well soon Buddy.Originally posted by pankajsingh5k View PostHello guys,
had my first major accident with my whiteangel...my bike slipped when i used brakes on gitti(minute pebbles road) and my speed was around 50-60 and i got 4 stiches on the chin....( i was wearing a helmet NINJA STUDS and i think that is why my nose got saved) and hands and right leg knee got scrapped pretty bad.....my bike has a big scar on the right near the headlamp and the right indicator was broken
.
but thanks to the awesome leg guard there are no scratches on the tank or air scoops...the leg guard has twisted and will need to be straightened. i have been recuperating for about 2 weeks now and still i cannot ride my bike because the right leg wound is still not healed.
i would just to ask all the new bikers not to get carried away by the 180's power
and pure awesomeness and ride with a little caution. hoping that i get back on my feet and my bike soon.
guys...my friend said the indicators will be changed as a pair and not a single piece. how much would that cost????

Yup stock tyres. I don't have much confidence in the tyres either. But somehow the grip felt good yesterdayOriginally posted by kantu View PostOn Stock Tyres ??? raining here also in blore , felt slippery

Muddy road, roads with pebbles and sand are a strict no no. But I don't think any tyre would be able to provide much grip in such situations (at least not the mrfs)Originally posted by abhishekch View Postin rain on wet tarmac the grip is good but when it come to muddy wet road like corner of roads they give up some times .

??? KIDDING?Originally posted by abhishekch View Postin rain on wet tarmac the grip is good.
not just rain dude even if somebody just spilled a mug of water o road n u try to turn bend or brake i am pretty sure u will end up smelling tarmac.,
heard they r developing a new kind of tvs tire. this time double compound. i jus hope they USE MRF or irc for the 200+cc bike expected.
