Cool Thanks Haxor. Made up my mind on the A180ABS. Only thing left is to manage my finances now. I have been quoted 91,177 Rs. Onroad. Teflon coating and other things extra. I've had a test drive of the A180 in the evening. Liked the responsive engine and the build quality. Felt some vibes after 4000 rpm but ran out of road before I could sustain that rpm to confirm how bad the issue is. But felt that the vibes were manageable. Gearbox was smooth as well. I've asked for a white colored one. Have been informed that they'd be getting a new shipment within a week. Asked them to check if I could get it by Saturday cos I'd have two full days to enjoy the bike before starting the daily grind. Have been mailing Joel as well. Since I am upgrading from a Discover 125, I'd like to check the full power of this machine before pimping it up.Originally posted by haxor View PostSome of the Happiest people in the world don't have everything.

Yes, the batches earlier than 2010 were having one way clutch problem. The company replaced the faulty one way clutches for free and the new batch got it rectified already. Not sure if they come from Germany or somewhere else.Originally posted by rajeshmushtang View PostIs that true that one way clutch problem wher their with some of the RTR180 batches. AND Now they have rectified and the newer ones and they are coming from made in Germany
@Haxor
Would surely like to see the cam mount
It will be easy to make one but keeping it vibes-free is the task to do. Lets see how it comes out to be. Hoping for the best

After 250kms of riding,felt that Shell VSX(SS) 10W40 is much better than Veedol Super Swift(SS).Gear shifts were like 'khut-khut' before,now its just a 'click'Originally posted by haxor View PostI shifted to Veedol Super swift,lets see how it turns out, dont feel much of a difference!
.BTW,Shell VSX comes with DPA technology(with additives for less wear & tear).
For front look for MRF Zapper FS 90/90 17'' or MRF Zapper FY 80/90 17''.Originally posted by avragha View PostThe thing is we dont have any showroom for the recommend tires except MRF showroom, can tell me which size to go and the specific model and look good for A180.
For rear MRF Zapper C 110/80 17''.

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.
