If that sound comes from the exhaust, its common the 220. It means the AFR is slightly lean!
Just get it tuned from PBK once.

^^ you can ride your bike without lubing the O-ring chain for upto 800 KMs so you dont have to use the non-specified for O-ring lubes till you get a proper lube. also you cant judge the lube will stay only for 100 KMs it may last longer than that unless you wash it off._________________________________________________

Better buy a Motul Chain Lube (500rs) + a WD40 (90rs) and this Motul can serve you easily for 15-16 lubes!
Now count the calculation.!
Note : On xBhp, there's a very very informative thread on How To Lube Chain.
Never Ever clean the chain when the engine is ON.
Keep the keys in pocket & clean the chain wid a cloth & WD 40 while moving tyre wid another hand.

@all
Been a silent reader for about 5yrs, reported here only when there was a query. Was enjoying the ride all this while!
No mechanical problem whatsoever with the bike, still getting rock solid performance.
Recently the speedo started showing random figures and finally came to zero and is still stuck there.
I did check the wiring for the speedo cable but it seems to be physically fine, any suggestions ?
What would be the estimated repair ?Thats NOT neon glow under my ride you fool, thats cherenkov radiation!!!!!Comment

After long term of search over xBhp, google and in personal.Originally posted by yuv_biKING View Post
Some people will agree while other may dis-agree to WD40 question.
But in the end even I found its not harmful!
Have seen many pro mechanics also using it & some very old 220 members too !

I had followed a similar thread about pro's and con's of WD 40, one international forum member even went with full on testing with the o-rings dipped in wd-40 and other lubes and a lot of load tests or something, can't find the link though. But after a lot of discussion it was reached to an agreement that the way we use the WD-40 for cleaning and then cleaning it off and using other lubes, it's not for a prolonged period, so it is quite safe. More over, i also use WD40 for cleaning and my chain is doing fine, no problems at all.
Cheers
Ride Safe

The thing is that i didnt have the basic tool kit and i am yet to source it so went to a local mechanic and instructed him what to do .
Next time i will do it myself.
Went for some 100km ride and one strange thing happened the bike shuts off automatically.This the second time the incident had happened.
I overtook an truck around 60kmph and reduced the speed to 40 after overtaking and after reducing it the engine failed and was back into life after cranking and no problem after that.
Was this due to low speed and high gear or any other stuff?
will be taking it to PBK in February did i have to mention anything about it?
P.S clutch is so light i think the wire tightness has been changed.
Also experienced too much body pain after the non stop ride(Have to hit the gym soon)Comment
