    did get the tank cleaned and refilled with fresh octane...checked the clutch cable and air filter...but, to no avail...

    the engine still cuts off when i pull in the clutch to slow down from high speed....if i pop the clutch it starts again..does this frequently during the first few minutes,,, after 5-6 KMs the frequency drops quite a bit...i need to twist the throttle just a bit all the time to keep the engine alive... so confusing...

    • I just came from SVC and they said a stand is aviable for r15 for 700-800 which can be fixed in the bike.. is it safe to get it installed?

        I got the cans from the dealer itself. Just found the place while traveling to my friends house. I saw the Motul board and entered the house. The whole room was full of all types of Motul products. He asked me that do I want it for personal use....He said that I can get all the products at DP from him..

          You're lucky my friend. We have to pay @ MRP for all motul products here in delhi. I got the motul5100 Semisynthetic oil at Rs450 a few weeks back. I wonder how much a courier from lucknow to delhi would cost

                it all started with a changed idle RPM...on a cold engine, the bike idles at 1500 in the beginning then fluctuates a bit down to 1200 for the next couple of minute. after riding it for 10-12 minutes, it idles at around 1300 mark while still in 1st gear..however, in neutral it goes to around 1500...i have tried to fix it on a warm engine..as long as the engine is warm it rests at 1500..but, the next morning it would go back to the old scenario again...

                checked the air filter and it looked pretty normal to me..the airbox is clean as well...

                this stalling occurs mainly during the very first 4-5KMs when the engine is warming up...after that, the frequency of stalling drops significantly.

                  • Ashaq - did u get the air manifold intake pipe checked for any leak or loose connection? it is situated under the tank on the head of the engine.

                    • I had this weird noise coming in the bike and I got the chain lubricated from SVC after 5-6 days the noise is back and is much more bad. If I am on faster speed like 60+ there is some screeching noise and its irritating as hell.. At lower speeds the noise comes once like ..... screech ..... screech...... screech ..... screech..... How do I fix this mess up?

                        Since you say the problem occurs only in cold engine situations, it cannot be any manifold or air filter problem. Must be something related to spark plug, tappets. Did you get your tappets adjusted recently? Tappets tighter than recommended usually cause such symptoms. Also, do you live in an area that has a lot of moisture or let your bike get wet during nights,etc? In such situations, it could be the water droplets/condensation at the spark plug causing the problem. But, I highly doubt it's something to do with tappets.

                          The problem is most probably with the ignition coil or the HT wire... Its definitely not a mechanical problem...

                              Why would it run fine once the engine warms up then? I've experienced those symptoms myself when my tappets were tighter than recommended. Clearly, heating is helping his engine run fine, and that means thermal expansion is helping somewhere. How does the ignition coil get better with higher temperatures? And the ignition coil doesn't take so much time to get to operating temperatures...just what I know though.

                              • I recently got a tube fitted in the rear tire. Though, its been just 6 months, but somehow the rear tire gave up with a huge puncture. Heard that putting in tubes runs fine. Was planning to go for a 2k KM run one way but am not sure with this setup. Does anyone have an experience with the tubes?
