Page 26, Periodic Maintenance and Lubrication Chart, Item No. 36
Check gas pressure 7.0 + 0.5 Kg/cm^2, to be done every 10k kms
I figured the only component of the bike involving 'Gas' was the Nitrox rear suspension, so there, one part of your query answered.
I used to think that Nitrox literally meant the rear shocks used Nitrogen for damping, but then the device they use to refill the Nitrox shocks is nothing but a simple pressure gauge cum mechanical air pump kind of thing. You'll notice the star screw to the rear of the gas chamber in the shocks, they remove it, insert the device and pump air into it for something like 110-120 psi ( not sure about the units psi or something else ) . Second part of your query answered.
Damn, I answered Aryan's queries! It's usually the other way round. Am I honoured

PS: This aint the most technologically advanced bike in the market...  |
Which is why i mentioned "during its launch"! There was only the Glamour with Fi during that time i believe.
