416.4 kms.
Nope, no burn outs.
^ aren't you on FB? looked up for you, add me

Same Pinch!!!
I too run at 30/35 (F/R)...

I got 25 in my front and 35 in rear filled yesterday. Should I fill up again? + What do you mean by cold tires

yes as long as you make sure you turn on the light only after bike is in motion

hid ballast takes

6A-12A at the startup for 1/5th of a second
2.5-3.5Amp normal once bulb is completely lit.

35W Halogen bulb would take about 4-5 Amp constant. (correct me if i am wrong)

Arent 28/32 correct pressures?

I Run 29/33 in all conditions and it works for me.

i think 29/33 is the correct pressure, right?

@santa

any updates on DIY protection for radiator buddy?

Hi to all!!!!
I've completed around 900kms in around 40 days(studies to be blamed) and got first service done at 800kms. Bike is being driven as per manual.

Here are my few observations which i would like to share..

1: When the bike is pushed/disturbed a little(when it's off), a sobbing sort of sound comes(like it's crying)

2: Rear brakes are just inffective, just no action on pressing 70% of pedal nd on pressing further breaks just lock in and result in a skid.

3: After 7k rpm, exhaust makes screeching metallic like sound which was really untolerable when heard with helmet romved(did on a deserted closed road)

4: Gears change with a loud thud and the operation is ROUGH. Can this be related to process when my brand new bike's right side cover was opened to replace a faulty rubber ring due to which oil was leaking(pics attached)

Please comment, are these things are normal or it's something to be concerned about!!!!!!!!!!

These things hurt all the more when i drive my friends 1200kms old p220. It's engine is dammn smooth and gearshift are excellent as compared to mine R15 and mind you, the bike has been ripped from first day itself.



Also attaching pics of my new blue muffler cap.

Can be a lot of things, people could help if you tell em where the noise comes from? Is it the wheel? (no worries, just clean and lube sprockets)
Is it the disc, bleed disc
Is it the tank, just pop open the tank and then close it again,
(You may also want to talk to your bike and assure her that you will take good care of her and offer her a tissue :P)

2: Rear brakes are just inffective, just no action on pressing 70% of pedal nd on pressing further breaks just lock in and result in a skid.
Rear discs arent supposed to have a lot of bite, this is in general interest of your future family.... when you say no action I am assuming it doesnt halt the bike completely, and to be honest I am quite ok with that....
Use front instead... (use it wisely though)



3: After 7k rpm, exhaust makes screeching metallic like sound which was really untolerable when heard with helmet romved(did on a deserted closed road)

Dude! Its run in time, what the hell are you doing beyond 7K RPM?
Check if your muffler or heatshield is loose...


4: Gears change with a loud thud and the operation is ROUGH. Can this be related to process when my brand new bike's right side cover was opened to replace a faulty rubber ring due to which oil was leaking(pics attached)
What rubber are you referring too? Are you talking about the small sheet which holds the case with the main assy? or something else?
Oil leak in Sub 1000KMs = Dealer needs to have a smack on his head...!

@nisarg-
havent found time , was busy over the last few weekends , will do it after two weeks , wont take long.

1: sound comes from the tank and only when bike is off. The sound is jokingly reffered by friends "Ye roo kyo rahi hai???"

2: by no action i mean there's just no braking, then on further braking wheels get locked. IMO brakes shud have progressive action.

3: I just took it 3 times and that too for few secs. Even manual allows it indirectly.
The sound comes from exhaust only and is of engine only. I basically mean its really loud and intolerable. IMO it shud not happen for a bike which has it's powerband starting from 6-7k rpm.

4: Nope it's not what you are thinking. It's basically a thick black rubber ring of approx 1cm radius. I dont remember clearly it's function but the oil was leaking coz that ring was broken and to fix it whole right side assenbly was open up.
Grearshifts are really pathetic. Gears most of the time dont change in one go and it seems like i've to tap 2 times to change 1 gear.
Are those circular rings, clutch plates?????

answers in bolds

I have the same problem of that sobbing sound. It increases when its raining.
Any help??

The sound will come mostly when your bike has been sitting in the sun light for sometime. The sound is of petrol vapor escaping from the small vent hole in the lip of the filler cap.

Thanks parth for your satisfactory reply.
But you haven't understood my rear brake problem, braking is such that it dosen't slows me down, but just locks the tyres(brakes bite in suddenly after pressing 70% of the pedal, before it there is just no breaking)
So I'm bound to apply fornt brakes even on slow speeds, turns, slush etc

Also can someone tell me what all factors lead to a notchy gearshift???
