Is this a common and incurable disease?

I am planning to buy one soon .. and reading this things again and again on this thread. This is bending me to RTR Carb one or even a Uni

dude..admitted this is a slight niggle. yes it is quite irritating especially in traffic. But apparently, the new batches of RTR fi dont have this [problem and have changed their injector. But again this is what a trusted source told me. So it is up to you.

Its not only with the injectors. It is also got to do with the ECU which has to inject fuel based on the air temperature, engine speed and so many other parameters. As for my RTR Fi, I have never and I never am facing this issue. I felt it during the run-in period, after that its fine(touch-wood). Done 1.7K kms till today.

but still i'm not complaining.....

yea no complaints as it starts immediately with a single self

(and also bcoz of the fun you can have while the engine is running

)

always use the kick to start it in the morning atleast

@sandybaba really unfortunate that you had to go through all that

Depends on your running per day, if the bike runs everyday for atleast 8-10 kms no need to use Kick.

You guys can safely use the Self start everyday without using the kick. No issues

first it looks bad.....

('first' was the reason i removed it though

those "wings" are for looks only and they dont even direct the air to the engine for better cooling leave alone those "aerodynamic" thing........!!!!!

refresh has the same 15.2ps as the old RTR and also sports the same exhaust.....
thr RTR FI has the different exhaust....
apart from the scoops,open chain and the console with features as the FI the bike is all the same....

just read what SAI ACE said.....

c'mon man.....who would be driving a 16ps,12000 manic RPM machine at 2000-3000RPM....
take it as a indication tht the bike is meant to be drivven hard......

avoid puuting oil in the air filter after cleaning it, though it is recommended but it do hampers the air flow....instead increase the intervals of cleaning the air filter(evry 1000km or 800km)but dont oil it....

check the plug gap and colour is it normal?????
cuz the things u mentioned here thr seems to be prob in tht and not in clutch or the carb jets....

actually joel mentioned the refresh has a different exhaust. I should know..i have a refresh. Put the original RTR and Refresh next together..fire em up..u'll hear the difference.
