Very good video, I have a bs4 apache RTR 200 and I plan to go with castrol power 1 ultimate.... So its a very helpful video for me, thanks and keep it up!!
I've been using Castrol Power1 Ultimate 5w40 since last year in my Honda Dio. I have got all the benefits that you mentioned in this video. Especially the consistency of this oil is something else. Engine behaves the same even after doing continous 300kms! People really have to experience this oil to understand the change. And I've ridden a 160 4v running on Motul 300v. The oil really complements the quick revving nature of RTR engines. But I don't think it's worth spending that much extra over Castrol Ultimate, because RTR200 has a relatively low compression engine. It may be worth for top end focussed bikes like KTM's or R15.
I have used Liqui moly street race 10w 40 on my MT15. best experience for me after using castrol power 1, Motul 300v, Yamalube 7000km is largest interval but still the performance seems stable till 6000km As well as Milage and smoothness are noticable changes I've felt.
Taking about liqui moly, I tried the 10w50 . Gear shifts weren't that good as compared to motul but it did last long than motul my friend and talking about smoothness..I felt liqui moly for a bit smoother on high revs
@@MMT31 i also have Apache 180 and I'm using motul 7100 10w40 from last 4 months smoothness of engine in High revs is next level u can touch 100 without any vibration... you should must try
Yes it does, but for one year it's better to go with the stock oil and then changing to after market products should be fine. There won't be any such issues that might get you to claim the warranty.
Hello mate i own a tvs apache rtr 200 v4 its 6 months old i am not happy with the stock oil and planning to change it to motul 7100 after an year but as the engine has 5 years and parts have 2 years of warranty will the warrenty laps if i get the oil change done
Yes, the warranty will be voided when the engine oil is changed within 5 years. Since we always upgrade to better engine oil, there won't be any problems from the engine and only the engine warranty will be lapsed not the parts. If the bike is taken care well you don't have to worry about anything. The bike performs way better when the engine oil is upgraded. It's good to upgrade after one year as you mentioned.
Hello everyone, the next oil upgrade I'm planning is Motul 300V Factory Line 4T 10w40. If anyone has any thoughts/feedback about this please feel free to comment down below. You can also suggest other options :)
Brother I have 2023 rtr 200 4v BS6, just a month and a half old and completed 2nd service but the thing is that I have not used the TVS engine oil instead I have used the motul 10w 40. Will it cancel my warranty?
Hey bro, it actually voids the warranty when you use after-market products within 5 years of purchase. But don't worry, you can change back to TVS Tru 4 during the next interval. Motul is a really good oil and has far better performance than TVS Tru 4, but I recommend to use the stock engine oil until you complete free services.
Hello, I bought the lever guards offline from JC road Bangalore. I'm not sure about the brand but it costed me 700 after discount. I had to get a nut welded after removing the bar end to make it universal fit.
Bro couple of questions 1. Will that grade engine oil be compatible with 160 4v. 2. Currently I am using tvs tru 4 synthetic oil. If I change to castrol do I need to use engine oil flush prior that change. 3. Will that grade affect my engine as company recommends 10w30 grade. Thanks in advance
Hey, please find my answers below... 1. Yes, it can be used in 160 4v as well. 2. Engine flush is usually preferred when the engine has run 20k plus kms to clear/remove the sludge and deposits from the engine. For new engines which has run less than 15k or 20k, my opinion would be to avoid engine flushing. You can try draining the existing TVS oil by slanting the bike both sides and use a new one. It should be fine. 3. If the vehicle is used extensively like touring and stuff it's ok to go for 10w40 as it's more viscous and might resist the heat. If it's just city/daily commutes the stock 10w30 would be ideal.

Yes, but I did not notice any drastic changes. The throttle response is improved a bit that's it. I'll need to check if it has any impact on fuel efficiency. I will update if I see a difference.
my bike has run only 2000km on tru 4 tvs oil and its been 1 yr since i changed engine oil should i wait for 3000 or immediately change the oil bike is rtr 160 4v b
Actually it was purchased offline and had to get it done from a workshop with some welding work. Universal lever guards don't fit Apaches handlebar. But I can talk about the process involved in my next video.
Bro is this bike still in Warrenty ! My service cneter guy told they will void warrenty is i changed oil . Finally i decided not to consider warranty , after my free service . I own rtr 160 4v 4M edition . I have installed 200 4v slipper clutch and use motul 7100 oil
My bike is still under warranty period. Every service center dealers will say the same but there shouldn't be any problem in using a better engine oil.
Oil change cheyyanadu maathram alla servicing. Engine related endengilum issues vanna maathram it can't be claimed that's it. Nammal purath oil change cheyyanadum swayam cheyyanadum doesn't make a difference. If the bike is maintained well and serviced well (including valve adjustment every 10k kms) there won't be a situation where you will need to claim the warranty. In very rare cases you get issues with the engine for the first 5 years. Apart from oil change every other work on my bike is done from authorized dealer.
Hello...I got it offline. I purchased it from JC road in Bangalore. It's better to get it fixed from a workshop as you would need to weld a nut inside the handlebar. Universal lever guards might not fit apache as there is no provision.
If the purpose is city or daily commutes I recommend Motul as I've heard the refinement and gear shifting is smooth. It also keeps the engine cool I'm city limits. Castrol does a decent job in cities but not as smooth as Motul.
Bro one doubt am also using castrol power 1 ultimate10w40 in my fzs v3..now i am going to change motul 7100 10w 40...can i use engine flush ? Because changing brand so ?
If the vehicle has clocked more than 25k or 30k kms then using engine flush should be fine. If it's a new vehicle and has run less than 15k or something it's not required to do it even if you are changing the brand.

2:14 ex engine oil looks healty , i think its ok to change oil every 3k, 3,5k , 4 km kilometers. 2,5 k is early to change oil on it.

Thanks bro. I actually learnt that technique after watching some DIY videos. It's a platform for knowledge sharing :)

Thank you so much for your inputs. I'm surely gonna try Motul next. Have you faced any oil level drops after using Motul?
@@MMT31 yes after 2000km around 100-150ml oil evaporated
Alright, that is not a problem actually. Top up is kinda common with air cooled engines. I'm gonna try Motul for sure.
Always open the engine oil filler cap before first before opening the drain bolt - the oil will drain faster and better.
Thank you for the information!👍🙂
