    P.S.: I have P220 DTSi.

    @Mods: I had asked you people earlier what was the need for separate P220 DTSi thread when RTR 160/Fi have the same thread and such queries (like above) will be answered much more efficiently/quickly in this thread instead of DTSi thread.

    buddy everyone's headlamps are a bit concentrated to the left...that's to avoid dazzling others......my beam is concentrated to the left.... its ok...unless its too much of a tilt.... i can tell u how to adjust the height of beam..not its tilt

    220dtsi and dtsfi have seperate threads for one reason ... to avoid overlap of certain info.... but u still can refer both the threads... any of ur queries will be answered here or we shall try to answer it... ...
    maybe the mods considered its better top have seperate threads...

    • @All 220 DTSi xBhpians: As rightly pointed out by vid_powerstroke, it would be immensely helpful if you indulge in reading the first few pages of the 220 DTS-Fi thread. Many of the topics are helpful as the base engine is more or less the same.
      Additionally, what we have learnt is that a good running in is absolutely important for flawless performance. Please do also ensure that you insist on cleaning the oil strainer with the first and the third service.
      Never argue with an idiot. He will drag you down to his level and then beat you with experience.

          well u crossed 135 mark.. congrats... see, now there will be various factors for the top speed on our little bikes..
          the rubber ripperz guys have crossed 140+ mark mostly on downslopes and continuous very long stretches of road.. if u are a member of that club, u can ask the other members to know how and where they could do that.. all figures speedo indicated...
          be happy man, ur bike does a 138 atleast on the speedo.. true speed should be around 132-133 kmph..

            Actually it is too much of a tilt as i was even unable to look into corners i took at a twisty ride i had last night. It was all defensive riding in pitch darkness, the awesome lights were of little use. there should be an easy way to adjust it as the road i took yesterday, i crossed just 2 cars(in total) in the total stretch of 62km out of which 1 I overtook,(So there was nobody that i could have dazzled.) but it was impossible to look ahead on the road due to the left-focussed headlamps.

            The left tilt is almost 20deg (approx) away from what it should be for both low and high beam.
            Advice is a form of nostalgia.
            Dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it's worth.

                well ok go to the nearest ,(good mechanic who wont screw up ) ...or pBK ... see the headlight is simple as this....there is a bulb...covered by a convex or concave lens.... the lens is supposed to be removed... and tilted to the angle and replaced back.. have u seen big camera's which have removable lenses ? hmm welll it works on that principle.... or KINDLY CHECK IF UR WHOLE FRONT FAIRING IS WRONGLY FITTED .... must be another problem.....

                      guys please dont remove the projector lens all you need to do is this
                      there are two screws on both the sides of the projectors they can be used to shift the projector towards the righthand side.

                        how do u plan to gain access to the bulbs to adjust it?
                        a mechanic cant do that...

                              well, on dry surfaces it is ok.. can brake pretty good.. but on wet, little gravel or corners, gone.. there is nothing.. iam happy that the edges of the tyre were used today coz of 360.. they just go waste..

                              thanks for the verification.. and yes the rev-limiter is very violent..
                              well, if iam not wrong the HH CBR and RTR dont have it at all..
                              next time try 4th gear rev-limiter cut-off..
