    • Guys, the paint on my alloy wheels have lots of white spots. Can I have it painted under warranty? My bike's ridden about 14300kays.

        I am having a hard time finding the RTR one and would like to explore options, besides RTR rear foot pegs do vibrate a lot!
        If you are in mumbai Ashwini TVS might have stock with them .
        Its not enough to know how to twist the throttle; you must have judgement to know when and where to do it.

            How come? I mean, does it not come under warranty? I am heading there tomorrow (dealer) to find out.

                Thanks a ton guys.
                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.

                    R15's rear pegs are direct fit, but you have to fit them using a cloth/ rubber.You'll end up cutting rubber in three or four pulling-retracting,
                    the best is,fit them in 'out' position and keep them in place with a neatly cutted blazer cloth.

                    For front R15's pegs fitment, you have to grind the pegs, and fitting the springs is a very tough affair,RTR's feeler bolts are a direct fit though.

                          Till 100Km, have 3000RPM.
                          Till 1000km, have 4000RPM.
                          Till 1500KM- have 4500RPM.
                          >2000km - 5-6000RPM.

                          Hyperedge has lesser vibration.when riding at morning be sure to ride first 5KM at <3000RPM.

                              I'm also having Gear Shift problems...
                              While Downshifting from 5th or 4th It gets stuck at 3rd...Feels like bike on 1st gear

                              And most of the times finding NEUTRAL is Impossible..Just IMMPOSIBLE

                              And its True that Vibrations are Reduced to gr8 extent in HyperEdge.
