Thanks for the reply. Well, i am riding with caution... But at times speed goes a little above the specified limit but i keep it under limit.

And what is the optimum rpm till first service?

Make the fuel flow a little rich. The noise should go, and its normal. After tuning it to rich if the sound still comes get it checked.

First Time Writing on XBHP, sharing my experience and feelings:
Hello everyone, I am Dev from Udaipur, Rajasthan. Udaipur: a very beautiful place full of lakes, palaces, mountains etc. Its basically a tourist place.
I have been part of XBHP for past some years now. And a follower even for longer time. For all these years I have been a silent spectator. But now I feel that I should share my feelings with you all. Kindly ignore my grammatical mistakes and misplaced English. But I know you will all know what I am talking as we all have something in common and that is love for motorcycles.
The beginning:
I got my first set of wheels as a tricycle as a kid, with what I remember and what my parents told me, I never used to leave it alone, It was with me all the time, I even took it to school with me. Times passed and got a bicycle, I used to spend a lot of time on it.
Slowly as I grew I started to get inclined towards motored two wheelers. My first experiences included my dad’s Bajaj Scooter, a friend’s Luna and sunny.
Things changed when I first time rode a motorcycle, it was uncle’s hero Honda CD100. It was a magical experience. I went straight to a friend’s place and took him too for a ride. Riding a motorcycle made me stand apart in my friends. I was admired and I loved it.
As I grew I started to ride my dad’s hero Honda splendor. I used to take it to school, it was cool, not many boys had bikes then, mostly had cycles. I loved the attention I used to get. We three friends used to sit on single bike and roam around.
My First Bike:
I got my first bike in 11^th standard way back in 2005. It was a Pulsar 150. It was back then the coolest bike. It was huge, as compared to splendor I previously rode. I had to ask the showroom guy to take it out of the showroom on the day of delivery, as it looked and felt so big. Soon I got used to it.
I loved it every way; it was fast and had a lot of road presence back then. We soon had a group of pulsars all my friends bought the same bike. We used to ride within city. Never went for a long trip.
My pulsar was with me till 2015, I have had a lot of memories with it, I grew with it. It was with me in all my experiences, school, college, job, first crush, first love, first date, I loved it every way. It gave me the feel of a sports rider. I felt it. I got so attached that it felt it was living. I gave the bike to a friend as I could not think of giving it to a stranger.
The Change:What I feel about the Classic 350:
It’s a beautiful bike, got huge road presence, and the feel is awesome. Its sweet range is between 60-80 KMPH, I feel the most comfortable in that range and drive mostly in that range. Beyond 80 it vibrates a lot. Rusting is a major issue, and it is un-predictable in terms of engine behavior. Sometimes it is smooth and sometimes not.
Overall it is a bike to be felt, neglecting the imperfections.
I have never done any touring on any bike, but wish to do some once I get a chance. I am more into short stints, but still need to explore the tourer in me.
What is motorcycling to me?
For me motorcycling is a way of living life, it’s a lifestyle rather than being just a liking or hobby. Riding a motorcycle makes me feel free, it makes me feel connected to myself, and it relaxes me.It takes me away from my daily life struggles of personal and professional life, it let me feel the life I want to live and not what I am forced to live. It makes me feel part of the global community known as bikers. Wish I had more ways to express my feelings but I am sure, everyone of you who loves motorcycles will know what I mean.
What Kind of biker I am:
I am a very simple but moody rider, sometimes I feel just to cruise and at time I feel like going fast. I might not know a lot about motorcycle history or legends in motorcycling, which I believe is not required as it is my sheer love for motorcycling that makes me feel it. I am not a tourer, at least not yet. But I have a lot to explore.
My Dream:
I want to be at a position wherein I can afford the bikes of my dream and have enough time to enjoy with them:
My Fleet of bikes should have the following:
A daily commuter: Classic 350 ( I already own it)
Weekend Rides: Harley Davidson 883 and a sportsbike preferably Daytona 675R or CBR 600 or a Fireblade.
Wish to ride on the best of the roads in the world, meet bike enthusiast from across the globe and ride with them. Feel every moment of my life.

Note:
I am not very good at writing things or putting my thoughts together, this is the first time I have written something I felt. Hope I convey my message and if there are any errors please ignore them. All that I have written are purely based on what I feel.

Hi all,
I just booked my TB 350 a week back.I always wanted to get the TB but was confused with Duke .
My current bike is Yamaha RX-100 which I am shamelessly abusing.The only "maintenance" I give it is petrol and oil.But reading the blogs looks like I have to change that habit.
Whenever I see a TB thundering past me I do feel happy with my decision(jealous too since still a 2 months wait) but a little scared when i see oil marks when TB is parked.
The Duke and TB are completely different bikes, I agree but can anyone owning both of them tell me about maintenance -time and money.
By the way,I inquired about warranty for matte finish at 2 showrooms ,both said it is under warranty.

Sanket

How retb350 works in monsoon... Does it gives issue ??

Hey Guys,
Still a long long month for me to get my TB but wanted to be prepared with other stuff.
1.Should i get the crash guard fitted from dealer or outside option is better.I am from Pune so if you know any shop please suggest
2.3M offers to put some kinda scratchguard tape.Has anyone done that.
3. I dont think i will be touring long distances but I do want to get myself and decent jacket/gloves and knee/elbow guards(if suggested) .I searched online but the variety and price range is confusing.I dont know which brand is good so doesnt make sense just to buy looking at prices.Looking at getting a vega helmet since i heard about the brand.I guess that indicates the price range I am looking at.
Please do suggest.
