do u know anyone who has had bad experience of this tyre ?

give us an review of ur tyre as im also looking for a new tyre

The theft of the RTR/Fi badge from the Apache motorcycles is more rampant in Bangalore according to what i have seen!!

what do they do with it ?

But the lucky / funny thing was it stalled right in front of Arun's home (kiran TVS service supervisor........he's the person who always looks after my bike in SVC) and to my shock he was at home....he bunked office

@satish

will this pic do? let me know or i will take another pic.

i think the mountings are just the same.....
could you provide a bit "zoomed" one.......

can be the fuel cock or the carb... dirty fuel settles certain substances in the carb and that too is a cause...

I remember very well that during monsoons we had to clean the carb regularly!!!

Satish, 30mm difference in disc size would cause a considerable difference in positioning of the calipers. Shouldn't it?

Hey guys, the A150 has touched 20k kms. today! I've decided to go in for a new bike but I'm keeping the Apache as well. Got some questions and I'm sure you guys can help me out with them.

1. Any major components need changing at this juncture? So far I've changed only the disc pads @ 14k, brake shoes @ 15k, and spark plug @ 18k. And of course routine things like oil, oil filters, fork seals, fork oil, brake fluid, etc.

2. There's some insane leakage above my cylinder head, I guess it's originating from the timing chain (?) and it's globs of oil! I've been asking TVS, Castrol, and my mechanic to get this sorted for the past 12 months but to no avail. Any private mechanics highly recommended by any experienced members here, or any alternate solutions to end this problem?

3. I'm planning to fit a 100/90x18 Michelin M45 or Dunlop GeoCruiser tomorrow, as well as an MRF Zapper FS front tyre. Are these good brands?

4. Also on the cards for tomorrow are: NGK spark plug (what is the A150's heat rating?), aftermarket air filter, and white halogens or high-powered stock wattage bulbs. Any recommendations for the filter and lights?

5. Anything else you guys would advise/recommend or that needs doing?

Thanks!

EDIT: Any good mechanics who can do post-K&N jetting for the Apache 150 (preferably who have done it before) in Hyderabad/Secunderabad?

no they seem to be diff!

@sai

machi i think u would have to get the fork cap replaced. calipers are the same but the mounting points are diff
