Hehehe.....thats was funnyOriginally posted by Sarvajit View PostIt is Sweating buddy, take it light until it pukes!
So soon?Originally posted by razorBlades View Postmy piston rings are fried.. do i have to change the whole piston block?
....i guess changing piston rings alone would be enough.
Originally posted by julianpaul View PostWTF is everyone buying the blue 220s!!?? doesn't anyone like the all black ones? or is there something special about the blue shade? for the first time i wish bajaj would go the HH way and actually come out with some new colours.
anyways, congrats sam!
sorry for the OT peeps.
I initially thought of black but then all the bikes we bought till now is black.....i wanted a change. Either BLue or Grey. But i liked Blue more and grey had lot of waiting time too!
Intrestingly all of us who upgraded from RTR 160 to Pee 220 opted for a blue oneOriginally posted by rennycornelius View Posti

Black, Blue, Grey and RedOriginally posted by whizzkid_ram View PostWhat are the available color options in 220 DTSi ?
Guys one funny thing are rather an attachment with My RTR.
Everytime i pick up the bike keys to go out my hand automatically picks up the RTR keys and its only when am going down the stairs i realise that i picked up the RTR keys instead of 220's and smile for myself.

Depends on the damage to ur bore. If the rings have created marks on ur bore's sidewalls and/or piston u might have to change them too.Originally posted by razorBlades View Postmy piston rings are fried.. do i have to change the whole piston block?
BTW may we know how many kms u have done and what is the reason cited by ur service guys?Democracy is when 2 wolves and a sheep meet to decide who is for dinner. Liberty is when the sheep has a gun.

for me too 
thnx man! i have done 37k kms.. and the reason they said is because of my high speed constant riding.. (100+).. i never thought this will give a problem in rtr, but hmm.. that guy looked like an amateur.. i will be taking it to service on sat to another shop.. lets see what he has to say!Originally posted by Aparajith View PostDepends on the damage to ur bore.

A good long ride can clear your mind, restore your faith, and use up a lot of fuel.
Always be ready (get geared) to fall and then think of sitting on the motorcycle.

Thought TVS Engines are Reliable(Fiero).Don't go for reboring(even if possible).If Cylinder walls are fine ,Change the Piston Rings.If the Cylinder is busted ,Get New Cylinder Kit(Check the posts of the Guy Who Fitted RTR 180 kit)

This does not sound like a proper reason man.....Originally posted by razorBlades View Postthnx man! i have done 37k kms.. and the reason they said is because of my high speed constant riding..

If u had revved it too much without proper oil or used adulterated fuel or used and freeflow intake, this can happen. Try consulting other mechanics as well!
@Techno: Not every service, but yes it does require tightening!Last edited by Aparajith; 09-30-2009, 05:22 PM.Democracy is when 2 wolves and a sheep meet to decide who is for dinner. Liberty is when the sheep has a gun.

they'll last till 15000kms...Originally posted by Technocrat View PostGuys how long does the rear brake pads last?
Also Does the O ring type chain requires to be tightened at every service?
and the chain is not adjusted on service to service basis,check the slack of the chain (not at the tightest point) and adjust it accordingly...The Magician"
