    this sensor thing that is activated when the fairing is removed is true.. i recently had my fairing removed(to check some vibrations) by a svc mechanic.. since i'm close to him he'll usually let me inside.. when he was removing that i saw this sensor kept blinking throughout.. he said this was quite normal as he had worked with several other zmr's
    Hey Friends the sensor in the faring is BANK angle sensor coz when my bike had problems i was discussing something with the supervisor ,he had told me the bank angle sensor is located in faring and if u did not fit the faring the FI light starts blinking....

    • this is insane.. atleast old zma we could ride without fairing?

          • Finally. I have changed my rear tyre with Michelin M45 4.00*18

            I did it at Metro tyres Laminton road originally suggested by manan
            Price :- 2850 Rs. 700 Rs deducted for old tyre, Final Rs 2150

            Calculation for deduction against old tyre.
            If less then 500Km and no puncture 1200Rs deduction
            If more then 500Km and no puncture 800Rs deduction
            If more then 500 Km and 1 puncture 700Rs deduction (100 less per puncture)

            I find my bike more stable with M45 and my pillion gave me good feedback. Details will share after few hundreds Kms.

            Michelin Sirac tyres are also available in store and the mechanic is quite comfortable in changing ZMR tyre, you can trust them.

            -Bajaj Super ~ 1999 - 2004
            -Pulsar 150 DTSi ~ 2004 - 2009(Sold /98,000 Kms)
            -Karizma ZMR ~ 2010

              So i have replaced my rear tyre with michelin sirac 120
              its grip is much better than stock and it works well off road too.
              this tyre costed me around 3000 with a direct fit no need to cut the chain guard.
              can you get the snap in the angle satyajit had taken for sirac 120
              Dream the impossible because dreams do come true !

                The Sirac is a heavy tyre..m45 is lighter than your stock mrf..... hence no effect on acceleration, pickup or mileage either....

                  M45 Has Awsum Grip ...hero honda should give m45 as stock tyre
