    Try changing the black cover around the speedo. It costs 75-80rs only! And ur rear tyre does'nt seem as if it has done 10k kms. still looks new. Hell lot of tread left....time for burnouts


    @nox

    Beautiful job bro. Am damn lazy enough to do these stuffs on my own (pssst....i dont know how to do it anyway) have'nt washed my bike in 2 weeks and its been raining here everyday!



    RTR completed 52k kms day before yesterday. been 4k kms since i changed to 300V and it still holding good. Will try and replace it by 5k kms! Left side fork seal busted 3 days back and was leaking. i checked it yesterday and the leakage has stoppped all by itself weird!

    left disc pad is more worned than the right one. What problem does it indicate. But i dont find any issue's with braking though!

      i was thinking the same, will change the black plastic cover,it's looking ( the gap) just tooooo bad.

      and ya my tire looks like it has done 1000kms only instead of 10000!!!

          thanks to SATISH i got the black triple clamp cover, but it came with the RTR180 logo so changed it to the RTR FI logo, here are the pics..




          you'll need this to remove the sticker logo (it's the paint remover "plate" or the "patti" as it's termed, the painters use.




          place a cloth so that the plate wont be scratchin the cover...







          the old one..

          • @renny: A nice explanation. Pictures told everything. I hope that it would also fit in my 180.

                  You removed the logo easily....i pulled it our usung my thumb nail. it did damage the RTR 160 logo slighty over the edge. I was damn tired that day but wanted to do it. i regret it though. Will probably replace it later on!

                          5 year warranty sounds good.....

                          • My rear discs feel spongy and I've done just about 1,800kms. What might be the issue? AFAIK, disc brakes can't be adjusted

                                Yep...thats right. But i really did'nt find any use of Alpha series. After all they give only discount(god knows how much) after the 2nd yr of warrenty for a new battery instead of replacement FOC. and addtional ~350 rs too much for it!


                                @renny.

                                I meant i might buy the entire triple clamp itself

                                Is kauria's pic from bikeindia website too?
