    Now i can understand what pain you have gone through. Mine is just 12000Kms on ODO.

    Well my bike never kicked out smoke or on idling. It was only when i opened the throttle the ttiiiirrrrrr sound was coming as of loose tappet though it was coming from engine. Is there anything to get panick, i mean will the replacement give me the bike with the same power and pickup i am tennsed.....
    IF its just the crank, nothing gonna change... and no run-in also after change.. yeah, thinking abt it,, there were few friends who had crank issues for no apparent reason.. maybe just a odd bad quality one made it into yours... happens all the time... dont worry too much... what you must be worried about is they getting cranky over u skipping the services and so denying warranty.. but since they said they will try, lets hope they do it... Cheer up.. and yeah.. 8k is too much for the crank replacement alone... crank comes within 3k (forgot exact amount)

    • Guys I dont know what to do,,I m feeling that as if I am turning the wrong screw for setting the idle RPM.....The screw for adjusting the idling rpm is the one which is near the petrol knob right which is like some kind of spring facing downwards....


      whenever I am trying to set it near 1.2k also the whole handle starts to vibrate..the vibrations are not that much but still when I m in first gear and still holding the clutch in signals or in heavy traffic it is troublesome,,,,any solutions to this ,,,,

      If i set the rpm to arounf 1k then the vibrations are almost nil...will it be any problem if i keep the idling rpm low around 1K???

      • guys need immediate help with this :

        in the hunt for DC conversion.. i came aceoss a mech. He says he would replace the current battery to a korean battery.. and add an extra coil...
        by doing this he says the charging system of my bike will improve... and i won't have any probs. with my HID kit den on...
        Is he right??

                    Is there a problem with those engines or do they mix some additives to the petrol? The white smoke makes those bikes look like two-strokers! and what tyres do they use??

                      That is because those bike's are running with rich A/F mixture

                        • Replacement of Stock TVS Tyres

                          Dear XBHPians,

                          While taking turns on a wet concrete tarmac, the front tyre of my RTR tends to slip...Is it a generic problem of TVS stock tyres that is faced by all? Sometimes while driving even at a speed of 50 KMPH, the skidding of the tyres is noticeable. This is really scary especially during monsoons.

                          If need be for replacement of tyres, what are the possible alternates which I can opt for?

                            The stock tyres sucks,go for R15 front tyre MRF Zapper Y 80/90 17'' & for the rear Zapper C9Dazzler's rear tyre).

                            EDIT:Today,lubed the chain with TVS chain spray,oiled the throttle & clutch cables too.Did all the work myself at home.Putting the cables back again is a great task though.

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

                            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.
