    Since it stops if you turn the petcock off, the tank must be fine. Problem might be with the fuel hose or the petcock itself.

    Where do you get the services done? How often do you service the bike?

    Honda suggests 10w30, but I used 20w40, because it reduced vibrations. Castrol, shell ax5 were the ones I used. No issues whatsoever.

    Good thing that you got the bike checked. Too much carbon deposit on the spark plug tip means the afr was rich. Now check the mileage after a few days and see what difference it makes.

    Take a day of from school/college and take it to a good service center and talk to them regarding this.

    Also, i had asked you to check the color of spark plug tip. Do that to see you the bike is running rich or not.

    I used to get 60-65 kpl constantly on my old twister. And yeah i rode it hard. Kept it under 60 kph though.
