      Make it 1300-1400 and clean the points of battery and then let us know

              • Nowadays I'm getting pretty low mileage (<=40kmpl) even though maintaining till 5k rpm for 90% time of riding.
                To rectify this I first cleaned the air filter.
                Now I'm thinking of buying iridium NGK spark plugs & Spitfire Cable instead of the stock ones.
                I have been running in stocks till 12k+ km.
                Will these changes help me in gaining mileage?
                Also please help me regarding the price for the spark plug & the Spitfire cable.

                  IMO spark plug and cables wont have any kind of effect on your mileage. Try changing your Fueling station and get your carb cleaned and tuning done. That should help

                  Guys, what's up with the Part catalog in the very first post? I see nothing in there! Can some one give me a link of the updated sheet?
