I was already running K&N and Tectrac's exhaust..!! Mr Vivek aka Tectrac was the one who was taking care of the bike...but now since he is not into bikes anymore my bike is being taken care of by none other than Mr Rajkumar himself...just spoke to him a couple days back..!! Infact im yet to meet him in person..!! here's the list of mods thats we have planned or rather is being done as im typing this..

    *200CC conversion,
    *porting and polishing

    and a month later will go for reprofiled cams and Iridium plugs...just thought il open this thread here so that I can post about the improvements when the bike is ready..cheers!!


    OT: Gals?? Here?

        • I'm running Michelin M62 Gazelle 3.00-18 in the front. Beautiful tyre.. but you'll have to remove the flap under the mudguard, otherwise it keeps rubbing against it while running. I guess 3.00 is what you would require.

          Rear is running on M45. (4.00-18)

                    Any tyre can.. but I would never be fully confident with such a tyre. I'd rather change to a 17 inch rim and get a proper tubeless.

                    and OT here R1 + V1 = wow !
                    It cost me 750+450 courier from KRP Delhi. AFAIK, they're the only ones who have M62, and you won't get it in Bangalore.

                        Hmmmm..that risk would always be there..!!
                        But, the tubeless tire variants are available in the 18" rim too..in the likes of IRC, Duro, Ceat, Dunlop, etc.

                        Anyways thats not necessary here..

                        I also ordered a Duro T/L tire from KRP for my ZiMA..!!

                              • I got a K&N on my V1, its loosing power at the top end by around 7-9kmph. Is there a bigger jet required as i have the stock one? if yes then what size?

                                Is there some one around in suburbs (preferably malad) who can do a good job out of my bike. (except reddy)
