The Official Pune Offline Meet(G2G) Thread

[satyenpoojary]

^You mind me writing about how you lost your license due to drunken driving on FB? or about you being molested by the gay guy in goa (and NO! I dont mean rockrzzz)

Ofcourse 'None' of this is true, but the point is the issue isnt whether or not one should 'hide' facts... like I dont want my girlfriend on FB know about my kids, (atleast yet!) so acknowledge the issue and fix it if possible, rather than trying to convince him on whether or not his value system\reasoning is right
Especially after him coming online as specifically asking everyone to not to do so!

@Shrinath: I am sure Inder would remove it from FB man if you rather talk to him. No point in writing it here and hoping it to happen!

The photo in question was uploaded from RK itself.. And I am sure Inder will 'disable tagging' on that photo / delete it if requested to. My point was.. there is no need to make an issue out of this. The pics above were also uploaded on FB (from the birthday boy's profile.. in 'His Birthday album') no issues were raised.

As for the 2 events you are about to write about in your blog.. and shere it on FB.. none of them is true. But the 'Crash with dog' ad 'Crash with auntyji' are true stories. Do you want me to share my thread on my wall right now?

As for the Kids / Girlfriend issue. Word of advice.. Don't add your kids as friends on FB. I am sure your kids will appreciate it more.

woh cake pe kya likha tha tu bhi janta hain

Colour coded, if it helps!
Shrinath: Do you have Inders number?
Have you tried calling him and asking him remove it, if it is such a grave concern?

[Controlled Madness]

This is waste of online space!

I have spoken to Inder and he shall have the photo removed!
Itna bawaaal kyu!!

Mending things is just a call away.... most of the times


@ All participating in this discussion: Lets not discuss this anymore, and if there is anyone who has ALSO uploaded/tagged a/any photo.. kindly resolve directly. .


@Pune xBhpians: Guys, lets not drag these things into the forum. This makes the entire community look miserably dumb and immature.

[stuntababe urvashi patole]

Indeed a good checklist.i'll make sure I follow this TCLOCK Sheet next time I go out for a long tour.It almost covers everything.

yeah its awesome isnt it

[shrinathrao]

I sympathize with you shrinath..Ahem..now can i have some cake??

any time you want to have.

@satyen - i told to INDER to remove it

ok guys idhar hi khatam karo ab ise, next time dont post anything just because you want to post about others without asking their concern, as he/she may not feel good.

+1 and I believe that no further comments should be posted.

[inder.cool]

@Shrinath: The pic has been deleted, and AFAIR I already told u that instance that I did upload it on FB. U just laughed it off that time..

But, never the less..since u weren't tagged in that pic then i don't know how would ur family friends come to know of it..? Anyways dont want to drag it more..all the fight n cribbing was pointless..

@Sagar: Thanks for the call dude..otherwise I would not have come to know of it, as i didnt login to FB or xBhp today the whole day as was very busy with work.

I gave my bike to a guy named pratik (works at Audi) to tighten the tappets which were kept loost by the SVC guys yesterday night. Today morning he gave me my bike after working on it, commenting "Now this thing will eat the 180 in its breakfast".
I liked this statement of his very much which is a modified statement of the VTR. I test rode the bike then which looked normal with the tappets tight. Later in the day, I found a huge difference in the bikes performance which had increased by folds. I called him up to ask what exactly he has done, to which he told the bike's bhp has increased by 2-3bhp. I din't understand what exactly he did, as I don't understand any mechanical stuff but there is a huge difference in it.

Now I am starting to fall in love with the RTR. Now it stands upto its name RTR. I met pads today who test rode it who told me that the firing has changed considerably (It does change completely at 3rd-4th gear above 5k RPM). Its moving like maska sounding like chaska.

He told me to get the chassis changed for an unbeatable performance. I dint understand how changing the chassis will help in the performance.

Dude, can u get us the full details - exactly what was done.. increasing 2-3 bhp without adding / replacing performance parts is pretty unblvable! Knowledgable ppls... can u throw some light on the firing part (i thought firing order was applicable only in multi cylenders)

How many kms have you done on your bike? You already have had to adjust tappets?
I am no mechanical engineer either, but it doesn't take one to know that adjusting tappets isnt going to bump up your power by 2-3 bhp.
Why are you giving your bike for servicing to an Audi guy? If you dont trust the TVS guys, there are many other good places for bike servicing.

Who told you to get the chassis changed?
Sorry for the bunch of questions, dude

Great to know that your bikes performance has increased. But increase in 2-3 BHP seems somewhat unsupportive if we dont have any numbers clogging as evidence Bro ideally, tightening or loosening your tappet should make a difference in valve surface and tappet surface clearence(source: read it from wiki reason:forgot my basics of mech engg ) but as far as I remember it should not get you an extra BHP as such but ask him if he has done any other mods other than that. Why dont you see if we got a dyno some where we can do a performance testing of your bike

[utsavchs]

Well, Last time there was some issue (I dont exactly know what had happened) in which the TVS SVC guys loosened the Tappets so much that it was making a hell lotta noise.

@S_and_M: I personally am a very dull in these things. I can't figure out what was done. Its just the bike feels different in power, low end torque, acceleration to higer speeds is happening faster compared to before. Engine has become highly responsive. The bike sounds different at 3rd-4th gear on 5k+ RPM. I strongly believe he changed something but what I have no idea. I paid him 70rs only for oil cap (last time I had lost my oil cap off the engine so took it from his RTR)

@Hyperion : Well, that Audi guy (pratik) is a friend of mine and he had done reversible performance mods in my last bike Platina. I have done 4500kms on the RTR. I know, adjusting tappets doesn't give 2-3 more bhp. He has added something/highly tuned the engine (I dont know what he did, he never tells me, I am just guessing). The Audi guy told me that if I could get the Chasis changed somehow, he could make this thing into something (high performance, power, top end etc etc.)
I don't mind the bunch of questions. I just want to know what he did to the RTR to make it like this (still its looking normal though from outside except its chain is not lubricated and I think its a little loose).

@kartik: Good idea.

Buddy, i seriously think that he is taking you for a long ride. following are the reasons why i think so:-
1) unless the tapets were horribly adjusted in your last service, it is almost impossible for you to loose 2-3 bhp
2) if your tappets were so loose and you were loosing 2-3 bhp, your bike would have struggled to touch 105 (as you claimed) when riding up a slope that too at amby in the last sunday ride.
3) if you were touching 105 while riding uphill, and you were down by 2-3 bhp of power, your speedo is all busted up and you need a speedo replacement under waranty.
4) getting the chasis changed is not gonna give you any further increase in power. it might stiffen up the handling but for most of us -"non professional racers", the difference will not even be noticable. infact, the benefits will be only on a racetrack.
5) if the guy is really able to get a couple of bhp out of a bike by just changing the chasis and adjusting the tappets, joel will get this guy killed so as to eliminate the competition.

no offence but as kartik has rightly pointed out, unless the bike is put on a dyno, the increased bhp cannot be measured. infact, most people dont even know what an increase of 1 bhp feels like. If you say that a responsive engine is high on power, try running your bike lean, it will improve the throttle response. but you are bound to screw up the bike in long run.
frankly, I am so confident of what I am saying is cos I have been trying to up the power of my bike and I have gone to the extent of putting a flatslide carb, upped the compression ratio of engine, used performance fuels, oil cooled the crankcase and what not! and as per calculations, my bike is supposed to give 16-17 bhp, but I know it isnt.

the bikes that we ride are perfected in what they do by people who have been working in this field for more than my age hence, you can safely rely that what they are providing is good enough. if you doubt that the service center guy is an idiot, put a complaint. you will help a lot of people.
additionally, your bike is still not completed the 15000 kms mark so stick to the service center if you want warranty on your bike

to add to what rockerz hai said .

"Abe itna BHP leke RTR ko hawai jahaj baneka take off karega kya "

No Offence Meant

By the way Utsav bhai , have some satisfaction with your engine. I remember a discussion I had with one of my buddies who was a punk with engine dynamics both theorotically and practically. Let me quote you some beautiful lines he said to me while we were working on my RX-100
" Kuch bhi kar , kitna bhi mod mar, but the way the engine performs when its tuned in stock mode is the best in terms of life, effecieny and power."

Cheers,
Pai
