    Does this noise increase after you ride 10-15 km compared to colder engine? Does the frequency of noise increase as you rev it up?
    @pcgamer ok thanks and yes the ticking sound is heard when i ride my bike for a long distance like 10-15kms a day and it gets increased if i rev high..

    When do you notice this sound exactly?
    I hope you are not talking about the tick sound you hear after turning of the engine & parking it after a ride.
    The cheeking sound from disc brakes are common if there are dirt particles between the disc pads.
    It can be resolved by flushing water with force on to disc pads.

        Get it changed under warranty. But before that make them diagnose the bike rather than you telling them that so & so issues are there..
        Its never going to effect your resale value as long as there is no such issues while selling your bike.

            That's the noise from the tappets. Get it adjusted. BTW, which service center do you go to?

            Regarding the silencer, try to get the RTR FI's exhaust fitted for that sweet exhaust note

              I will go to the Nandi TVS,Hinkal,Mysore.
              Will discuss about the exhaust with the TVS supervisor.

              Thank You all for supporting me.

                          • Finally brought the red beast - Apache 160 RD 2012

                            So after much thinking & testing both Apache & Dazzler, i have finally brought the new Apache 160 RD 2012 in Red yesterday from Century TVS, Pune & loved every bit of moment when i brought it home ( still haven't gone above 40 considering break-in/running of engine). As i am relatively new to bikes as i recently upgraded from a Scooty Pep to Apache , Would love to get tips & guidelines on how to maintain the bike till it reaches the 1000km mark and meet fellow Apachians from Pune.Thanx
                            A Bike is as good as it's Rider & Vice-verse. Ride Safe, Ride Happy !!!
