I had my rear tire vulcanized coz it had a puncture ... And as mentioned by me before, the rubber on the outer part was coming off after 2 days of riding. Well by today, they are just 2 tiny patches of rubber on the 2 puncture points. And the larger one is leaking air.

I'm gonna eat that guy's head for breakfast 2moro. And then think about getting a new tire. So.. Pirelli.. hmm.

^^ Have you tried the mushroom puncture fix ? got it done yesterday for my rear tyre , seems to be a good solution ... well i guess it would take time to say exactly how effective , but i'm just saying ...

Hmmm... I did see a pirelli sport demon front tyre there at the store yesterday ... didn't inquire about the cost . If you do change to pirelli , plz let us know ... and btw , what profile ? 140/70 ?

Hi all,

i would request you all to kindly give a feedback whoever have upgraded their headlight from standard 35watt to 45/55 watt, battery performance, etc.

I have already gone through the previous posts regarding bulb upgrade and osram vs philips. This is solely for an update on the experience so far with the upgrade.

I am using Osram NB for more than an year, brightness is very good and solves the problem of poor OEM light of FZ. When you switch on High beam on NB, even cars give respect, diming their light if they are in high beam.

If your tyre is in gud shape then mushroom puncture could be a viable option....but then again i dnt know how big or deep the puncture is.....

So...it depends on the nature of the puncture and if you are gonna change to the Pirelli then where are you gonaa buy it from.....nana peth or somewhere else?????
cheers......
