    ^^ Suggest me how to convert my 8000km old RTR from AC to DC, mainly my moto is to lightup the pilot, meter by direct batery power, Head light is not requiered, but if possible it will be bonus.

    Secondly found my parking lights are much dimmer then the current version of pulsars, any idea about some good white light for pilots. I saw satish's post regarding LED in this forum refer to page 13, but till time could not able to do that.

    Some idea on this will be highly valuable for me, By the by anybody have the circuit diagram for the RTR.

      Do not convert the AC stuff to DC. AC to DC convertion is not so easy and the current alternator will not support and produce the required power to keep running everything with the help of the battery. To convert the AC pilot lamps into DC, just plug in a rectifier circuit good enough to provide you power of 4-5W for each lamp.

      Secondly found my parking lights are much dimmer then the current version of pulsars, any idea about some good white light for pilots. I saw satish's post regarding LED in this forum refer to page 13, but till time could not able to do that.

      Once you have the rectifier circuit for the pilot lamps, you can plonk either the LED's or the normal bulbs.

      Some idea on this will be highly valuable for me, By the by anybody have the circuit diagram for the RTR.
      Try visiting any of the big service centers in your city, they will have a blown diagram at the service bay area. click a pic adn print it

        Thanks Krishna,


        if i will go for LED for the pilot's considering the wattage as 1.5 watt each=3 watt, led display maximum use 5 watt, rear tail light .5 watt, Rear stop lamp 5 watt.
        Total: 13.5 watt, a 12v battery can be easily handle the same, but think I need to put a relay in between.

        Please put your comments in..

                allignment of tyres are quite OK, the problem is with the gaurd, its like that from stock, nd have seen many apache like mine

                btw i stay in different places in kolkata, in weekdays you can find me in saltlake, and weekends in tribeni(opposite of kalyani), nd obviously on the highways

                  the alignment seem fine..the culprit is the rear mudguard...

                        no i faced the same prob when my bike came brand new i saw the rear tyre same like that........

                        the prob is in the chain setting and yours is definately out...match the lines on the left to right which are at the swingarm.....

                        if they're not equal your chain setting is out and that reflects your tyre not being in center....rush to service station and make sure the setting is right and both the marks on each side are equal otherwisw it'll eat up your sproaket.....

                          guess it turned to be that way for you....in my case....it just showed that the efi's build quality is not as great as even the first generation apache....

                              Guys any body install paper filter in their RTR of fi here. the service center for TVS here in Kolkata suggest me to use paper fiter of Honda Eterno in my RTR. As per him it will give much smoother 7 crisper throttle esponce like Unicorn. That guy is already done this mode in some RTR and the result is ok. He will try my bike soon.

                              Any idea guys.

                              ** I want to sell my 200Km old NGK CR7EIX plug for Rs. 400.00 if any one interested mail me at [email protected]. Courier charge is mine for out station guys

                                Can I fit the 80/90 Zapper FS of the R15 onto the Apache 150's stock alloy with no fitment, handling or leakage issues?

                                If that's true then the R15's rear tyre also would fit onto the Apache 150's rear wheel correct?
