AFAIK two chances, either dust in the pads or a slight bent disc / misaligned calliper.

Ghost in the system

OT-^^..I did not liked the black and white paint scheme(personal opinion).If he wants more applause and praise,I would advice him to post the pics in the'Share your creativity' thread thoughThat would do some more justice to these pics. :-P

Whats brocket? have you checked the level of brake oil?
have you checked the thickness of the Disc? why you have to change the brake lever? TVS SVC in kolkata are really bonkers!


I guess your disc is misaligned.Put your bike in center stand and rotate the front wheel,if it jams while rotating then the disc is misaligned.

as per mech brocket is the rubber & plastic washer type of thing, right after you open the cap of the chamber where the oil is kept on the handle bar even few says that is the master cylinder
brake oil totally change & brake pad is new

May be thats the reason of leakage of air into the braking system! Do check it out

I went to SC, they changed the complete meter set, speed censor and the cable to sensor under warranty without any question. Now bike is going well.

Thanks guys. I've already clean the disk and pad so maybe dust aren't causing the noise. I'll look for bent disc/misaligned disk/calliper in morning.

My bike's spark plug died at 250+km. Needed to buy new one

There is a mode after hi-speed mode on meter. If I reset it then it shows 9.9 or 8.8 something like that. What is the main function of it? Could anybody explain that?

Is 20w50 grade engine oil ok for RTR?

that s the so called lap timer. It shows shortest time taken for 0-60.
try getting 5

never used xW50, think its needed if engines getting overheated

Lol kantu i have placed that "ninja" symbol above my headlight -__- lot much similar between me and you

And adnan the high speed thing is just before the lap timer ...you can check out how to use it in your manual.

Thanks Kantu, I'll try to get the 5 after finish my run-in period.
Which grade are you using for engine oil?

Thanks Haarish92, but the problem is RTR doesn't come with any manual in Bangladesh. Does anybody have that as a pdf or scan copy?

Few minutes ago I've discovered that, there is 10 times blink the service light (red one) on the meter when switch on. Any idea?

lol
thats the service indicator, it s just a reminder about due service , its based on KMS covered on ODO so first service is at 500km so it stars blinking at 500 even if you get it serviced before.to make it stop just press both buttons together for 30s or more till you get a blink from the same red light

Brother i was also having the same problem.
Even after bleeding the problem was not solved. Had to sit on the head of mechanic and pissed on him, then they found that the problem was with the pump in the Master Cylinder which regulates the oil.
Mine is solved.
Get the pump checked and fight with them regarding the same else they keep on saying that the brakes are alright.

Heey there guys.
I am planning on buying Apache 160 - Hyperedge.
I am from Bangladesh and currently using Gladiator. I just wanna upgrade because of getting a 150cc bike.
I have been reading mechanical engg. and civil engg.

Now my advice to go to all of Apache owners is that :

To Complete Run In period and Better Engine Life and Also Nice sound of engine: ( 2400+-200KM )

1.Engine Oil Change
1st - 190-210KM
2nd - 690-720KM.
3rd - 1750-1800KM.
Use Mineral Oil for first ~5000KM.

2. Gear Shifting Paradigm
0-500KM - upshift under 3.5K
500-1200KM - upshift under 4.5K-5.0K.
and then gradually increase 5.5 for 100KM-6.0 for another 100KM and by so on-7.0-8.0 and go on and remember to do this till 2400KM because it is very important, Because Engine needs to be established at every RPM module. After that Ride your own style.

Morning Starting:

Engage Choke and Kick - should start with one kick and then engage choke for 10-15 seconds. Don't apply it for long. and then just idle the engine for at least 2-3 mins. It is better if you idle for 4 mins. and then for rest of the day, use ES.

Cornering :
Corner with caution. The tyres are very skid happy. I myself a gentle rider. But on road I also skidded once in Hyper edge in my city.
Ride responsibly. Before doing / trying anything stupid remember you have a family.

Anyways Guys wish you good luck and wish me luck at having my Hyperedge.

Mineral oil upto 5000kms? .The SC guy put semi synthetic oil after 1st service
adnan it Haaris not haarish and that service light is blinking means you have to pay a visit to the Service Center.

Man you saved my day. Many many thanks. I was worried. Now I'm really miss the manual. Will it stop automatically rather than press the both buttons? What is the next reading (km) for second service light?

Welcome Sumondatta, It is really nice to see another xBhpian from own country. Have you been reading both on machanical engg. and civil engg same time? Have you bought already or going to buy? You said planning on buying and later said you skidded once in HE in your city... Anyway Best luck with your new RTR, Which color do you going to buy if you haven't already?

Sorry brother. Typing mistake, it won't be happen again. May I ask, what stand for s92?

I do agree with you, only on cold weather and run-in period, we should use the choke. And about the kick, My FZ-S didn't have the kick, My R15 doesn't have the kick, so using kick on morning maybe good for battery but it shouldn't be mandatory.
