        I only paid 45 bucks for it.Its not a damper.
        The tappet noise wont go completely,it will persist little bit.

          OK.Switched to Shell Advance VSX Semi synthetic oil 10W40 today.MRP Rs.285/-.Now,the packing of this oil has changed along with the nomenclature,its Shell Advance 4T AX-7 10W40.





          Changed the oil filter too,costed 40 bucks.

          D.I.Y-Valve clearance setting RTR180
          D.I.Y-RTR180 brake fluid replacing/brake bleeding

          A motorcycle functions entirely in accordance with the laws of reason, and a study of the art of motorcycle maintenance is really a miniature study of the art of rationality itself.

            guys the RTR 180 is only supposed to vibrate at 6-70 right? my bike's vibration starts from 45 and goes on and on and on and on.....there are vibes even at 90-100.is this normal????

            today after completeing a 25kms trip some trrrr trrrrrrr sound was coming from the engine the tappet sound is this normal???
            before 60kmph it vibrates like hell but after 60-70kmph RTR180 gets smoother..there must be something loose in your bike..get it checked & tightened..

                    The vibes on the bike can of way too many reasons. Let me have a look at the bike and then list out the observations.

                      • bringing back the original white color???

                        Hi All,

                        My White Menace is around one and a half year old. Yesterday I parked it in a Mall and when I came back I saw a new white RTR parked along side. It was so white-er and my bike looked so dull I never had a teflon coating on my bike, just used to put some wax polish on it now and then.

                        Now I want to bring back the original white color of my bike! Will teflon coating help? Please help me out guys

                          Apache RTR 180 ABS is all DC,so it will be easier for you to install HID and stuff!
                          go for it!
