    ABS version - Servicing

    Guys, i got my first servicing on my RTR ABS last month but i was not happy with the way they checked the ABS part. Ideally, they are supposed to hook up the bike controller to a PC and check the settings but after initially telling me that they will check it, they dint do anything.

    After i asked the owner, i got them to connect the machine to the PC (mine was the 1st ABS they were servicing) but they had no clue on what to do with it...has anybody had a better experience? does somebody have any contact at TVS whom i can send an email to check on this?

    Thanks in advance !!!

            Help!!

            My A180 is 5k kms old and I rip my bike all the time For the past few kms I feel like the punch of RTR is missing. Pick up has gone down and the engine has become noisy I dunno how to explain this problem to the SVC guys because the bike acts so normal when cold. After I drive for 3-4 kms, I can feel the loss in power. WHAT SHOULD I DO NOW?
            If you ride like there's no tomorrow, there won't be.

              avg speed was 48-53 [4k rpm]

                      ^^
                      On a Apache RTR 180, the vibe's disappear from around 75km/hr. It won't be felt till 60km/hr either, from my experience.

                      Really feel for you bro, wish i could help someway
                      The Apache is ever willing to red line each cog, but the Rider ain't. Enjoy RTR, Safely. Period.

                            is your air filter clean??
                            is there any issues with the fuel ur using??
                            is there sufficient oil in your bike??
                            is the tyre pressure set accurately??

                            try checking for these

                                you have 2 options.i have used both and both are good.

                                1)iftex.....very good.

                                http://www.iftex.com/fuel.htm--you will get these in bpcl and ibp

                                2)nanojoshxxl......similar to iftex..lowers engine noise and knocking sound.

                                http://www.nanojoshxxl.com/---order it online
