  • I have done 137 on a P220-Ravi Kiran's. I think it can do around 141 (speedo indicated). His bike lost on 2-3 kmph of top end due to Sirac I guess.

You haven't paid for your bike so that you need to go to them every 200 kms. Give them a good blast. Tell them all the possibilities. Your situation is nothing like I have ever heard before. If I was in your shoes, I would really spend a good half a day at the PBK service, solve it once and for all. Because in the end, just think about it, when you paid for the bike, you have also paid for proper service/warranty. It is wrong for it to come up again and again. If mechanic does not solve it, go higher up. Talk to the manager and ask him to replace the whole bike under warranty!

      P.S: A friend of mine had done this since his first 220 gave him so much problems like engine getting cut off in middle of nowhere/refusing to start in the morning etc etc.

                  • Sorry folks.. Have been occupied with office work even on weekends. Have failed to post the trip log. The text needs some refinement. So will be posting the stuffs as soon as its done. Meanwhile thats another pic. Its AARA-WARA Beach. The most beautiful beach I have seen till date. Its very clean and people dont go there usually. Its desolate also.

                    • Guys, quick question.

                      5 years warranty, what all is covered in that? Should'nt busted piston rings be covered in that?

                        Sure is! Coz I remember when I had almost booked the P220, I was told that engine warranty is 5 years, rest of the bike is only 2 years.

                          On the owners manual it is mentioned that the bike has a 2 year (or 30,000 kms whichever is earlier) warranty and the engine is covered with a 5 year warranty (not sure about the mileage clocked here).. so yes, it seems that piston rings should be covered.

                          • Thanks guys, the 5 year engine warranty is actually irrespective of kms clocked (good for guys like me)!

                              Knowing your riding pattern, you will easily clock over 1,00,000 kms in 5 years.

                                Maybe sooner! *hopefully* I don't have to keep riding this for the next 5 years!
