Handling has improved a lot. the tyres have excellent grip. way better than my previous MRF zapper. it performs better in both wet and muddy roads. by the way, the brand name of tyre is "SM tyres" and they are imported from malaysis. I was getting same sized tyre (but with tubes) of MRF zapper for 1500 less, but i think i made a better decision by buying this.
As i changed the rim also, i had to change the sprocket. i dont know the exact details about the sprocket, but i can surely say that there is no noticable drop in pickup, but yes , there is a marginal drop in mileage.

The alloys which i have used on my bike was not availble in black. i had the option of painting it black, but the finish would not have been there. i may though, powder coat it in future. If i do, i will surely post the pic.
i have also created an album showing the modification in detail. check out
