Guys.. needed some advice
When slow down to stop.. and we downshift from higher gears..
should we always go from 2 -> 1 -> N or 2 -> N ?
I almost always end up doing the latter.. is it really bad to do that or it doesnt matter ?
Thanks.Lets put a smile on your faceComment

but FI never comes to nuetral if you stop the bike say in 3 gear..to come to the nuetral either u have to blip the throttle or leave the clutch 1/4 and do the downshift...
the latter do smooth it out....The Magician"

Hey thanks rennyOriginally posted by rennycornelius View Postrunning in lies not in speed but in the RPM you'll be doin buddy....
keep it below 4000 till 1000 but now you've touched 70 and 100 it would have surely done 8000....
as it was a short burst thn dont worry,it wont harm ur engine...
do vary engine speeds in every gear and for a short bursts take it to 5500....
and after 1000......
just see how beautifully the tacho goes to 12000
, but what do you mean by vary engine speeds in each gear? shud I rev the bike in each gear & shift at 4000? And also after 1000 kms should I directly go crazy on it (12000) or build up speeds/rpm gradually?
Also now I noticed a high pitched screech coming from my rear disk when the brake is applied, is it because the disc & pads are new or is there something stuck in between? A high pressure wash didn't do the trick either...Last edited by mzone; 03-19-2009, 02:56 PM.

It means that dont drive at a constant speed and Rpm and keep changing them for better setting of engine components . Even after 1000kms plz dont go insane but increase speeds gradually .Originally posted by mzone View PostHey thanks renny, but what do you mean by vary engine speeds in each gear? shud I rev the bike in each gear & shift at 4000?

Hi,
About Cost, I'm not sure, but the following are the components which need to be changed/Added.
1. Rear Alloy wheel
2. Disc brake assembly.
3. Swingarm
4. Adjustment of rear mudguard.
If I missed anything, pls update guys.

mate, i would suggest 100/80 MRF zapper Q..must say outperforms all other tyres! even better than my 120/80 geo-cruiser i had earlier..i find it best for commuting, but thats more of a personal choice i guess!Originally posted by sai_ace View Post

It looks like a huge damage to me..change in swingarm? i guess it l burn a crater in my pocket!! better to drop the idea and live with the damn not-working drum brakes

varying the speeds mean take the bike to 4000 RPm in each gear and maintain for a little time thr...and vary it gradually....Originally posted by mzone View PostHey thanks renny, but what do you mean by vary engine speeds in each gear? shud I rev the bike in each gear & shift at 4000?

and after the first serv which is at 700km take it to 5000RPM in each gear....
and man once you see 1000km on display.....REV the HELL outta it
1000 km is pretty long for engine to get set buddy...!!!!!!!!
wipe the disc with a WET cloth if high pressure water spray is not solvin it.....tht'll do the trick......The Magician"

hey guys... M new to xbhp.
i hav a RTR-FI, done around 4300 kms, it's around 3 months old.
i'm looking to upgrade the tyres on the bike, and also change the engine oil to sythetic. it would be nice if u could giv me some good suggetions.
i'm no looking to change to a wider tyre.. only better grip.Comment

^^^
Just go over this thread, you'll get all the info. I guess, 2 posts before also, there is some discussion on the tyre thing.
If it's 3 month old, it must be Dec/Nov batch which had almost all the niggles solved. Can you provide a short review/experience with the bike? That would be awesome for someone who is planning to but this bike now.Comment

thanks.. it'll take me forever to read all the previous posts, thats why i askd directly. I love the bike..... wat's not to like about it...it's quick and i love the exhaust note.
i hav had a few prob with the vibrations around 60 , apart from that no problems... i've got good mileage too considering the way i drive it.Comment

if your speedo too is not working, then your speed sensor has gone..TVS service centre will change it under warranty. it's around 350 bucks anyway,Comment
