some more points to be checked.....Originally posted by sai_ace View Postguys! need some pointers.
I am going to give my Apache for a much needed proper service. The bike is almost 3yrs old. The alst service was ages ago. Just did a oil change then.
Present condition:
The Engine is noisy. (ok..noisier than usual
)
The front suspension is horrible.
Front disc is worn out.
Battery is out of charge.
Gear shift has become very tight.
Slight steering wobble. Also the front tyre had uneven wear.
Headlight out of focus.
The head(?) is leaking oil.
So my question is, when going to give a 23k km, 3yr old bike in bad condition for service, what are the things that I must keep in mind? Also the reason why i pointed out the present faults is that you guys can help me point out other related components which need to be checked.
Thanks in Advance!
1.check the pressure at the oil lines...
2.check the valve chain....
3.tappet setting...The Magician"

And I thought we 'FI' owners are the only ones suffering from such powerlossOriginally posted by haxor View PostI Mean today while riding when i shifted gear .the suddenly the bike gave gave me a jerk.(jhatka)as it moved back and fro once and after that when i started the bike after 2 hours then i felt loss in accelaration!
.
It seems, the bikes are feeling the heat of "Indian Summers"..... The bike feels like losing abt 3~4 Bhp after riding 1/2 hr. in daytime....
Not to that much extent in mornings (I ride 33Kms to my office, one side).Yes....
I'm still Alive...

I also ride around 35 KM to office every day. Now with increased temperatures I have not noticed any significant power loss, but faced a problem with engine turning off after long ride. This used to happen when I have ridden the bike for 30-45 mins continuously at 60 - 80 kph. The engine used to get hot and at signals it would suddenly go off as soon as the RPM falls below 2K. Took to the service center and the guy increased the Idling RPM. It was little less than 1K. Now the bike feels fine. This Sunday I am going for a 100 KM trip (one way). Will know exactly how the bike behaves...
