    PS:
    I didnt knew the truspray is coming in 100ML can, cuz the last time i went to the showroom there was a bada waala (big one) can....

    My next step is to paint the front mudguard all black and get the black triple clamp cover (like the 180).

            • The R15's rear pegs which i put today are not happy with the vibes of our RTR , they're making so loud noises after 4500RPM (read metallic, irritating) that it forced me to ride the bike below it...
              Now will be putting rubber washer between them.

                I always wonder the actual meaning of rear pegs?? IMO, they are the rear foot rests made of iron,, how can one change them??

                  Rear pegs are the rear footrests,the one's on which the pillion rests his/her foot on, they can be made of pure rubber or of iron, or alloy with rubber cover over them, and yes they can be changed with other bikes, with little bit of grinding or thay may be direct fit (like the ones from R15 are direct fit on RTR)

                      They look much neat than the ones supplied, plus i had the front pegs from the R15 so the rear of the RTR were not matching with them.

                      The pegs of R15 are beautifully made.

                        • Fitting problems with the R15's rear pegs.

                          Though the R15's rear metallic pegs were direct fit, but they are rattling past 4500 RPM, to stop it i put rubber washers between the frame and the pegs but they got cut the moment i folded and unfolded the pegs 4 times, i tried taping the bolt which holds the pegs in place but after taping the bolt became thick and wasnt getting into the hole.

                          Now i'am left with an option of getting them grinded a little bit then will be using the steel plate (provided by TVS in original place to limit the pegs movement) to make them fit snugly.

                              Use black pemanent marker pen to shade the black colour pill of from the rim. It liiks good, and no one can catch it. I always do the same. Tyrewala dont show any mercy to the rim when fitting tyre or repairing tube.
