            if you are feeling uncomfortable after getting the bike repaired like vibrations, balancing and performance then sell off the bike and buy a new one and remember never to give the bike to anyone no matter how expert he is

              Sad to what happened to manan. It's a learning to all of us ! Also he was struggling to get the parts from the dealer. Hence please ride safe and do take care of yourself and your machine too. It can be repaired but becomes unneccesaary headache to the individual and your family.

                  Yes, i put up a message there but no one responded...anyway...

                  Does anyone change the spark plug to NKG or hodaka iridium spark plug in ZMR...will it increase any performance?

                    I am glad to know that you love your bike.
                    If you are worried about 8 months waiting then here is an option... we have one black and white zmr in showroom at shimla. if you want, you can take the delivery from here and then you can transport bike to mumbai via train....

                    i have got my 3rd service done yesterday for my bike, its more smooth now........

                    • Hi guys,
                      Me completed first service, now done almost 750 kms.
                      Bike has become a lot more smoother after the service... Now slowly taking it around 60s with 4K rpm.
                      Only issue i am facing is with fuel indication... it behaves weirdly sometimes.. Like it was half (4 segments) when i rode it yest for 35 kms ) it started blinking again loaded some 4 litre fuel again it started showing 5 segmetns adn then came to 4 after few kms
                      Could not understand it. Anyone faced it?

                        Digital Fuel Indicators on all Indian bikes doesnot show correct reading. It's not a problem but 'Lack of Accuracy'. Anytime, donot believe more than 40% on the fuel indicator otherwise you might be standing on the road with no petrol left in the tank.
                        It's time for Indian manufacturers to shift back to ANALOG FUEL meters. They were more accurate than these days craps.

                        and donot forget that your's is a HH bike considered tobe most reliable in indian conditions, can you think of the condition with Pulsar owners, As I am?? Pathetic readings..

                          • Came aross to a ZMR on my way to work today and talking to the owner, found out that it was the eldest one in Mumbai and the owner was a xBhpian (Worrisomebear) . The bike definitely has a very strong presence and seemed pretty smooth! The only thing that I felt was that the rear part of the bike did not match up with the styling and sporty feel of the front... Like its overall, but donno why there are so few of them in mumbai? Just come across 2 ZMR's till date, both white.

                                Absoulutely right, I felt this only when the bike had come to a empty state. And it was shifting between 3 to 1 segments on that day. Else it's almost stable. And the segment is getting exhausted between 70-80 kms of runnning. I have yet to complete first servicing, probably that is why i am still not getting a good mileage.
                                .

                                manan, how does your next issue pop-up even before the earlier is sorted out. I am really curious man. You are facing the rarest of the issues, i have heard off man.
