      Is any such alteration needed to install the front tyre too..??

      Hey Manan, about helmets.... I bought a helmet for my new ZMR ( Though i ll be getting the bike only later this week, till then my Xtreme wil commute me.. hehe.. ) and initially i had planned on buying an AGV Blade LX helmet.. Its cost is some 13.5 k or something over here...
      But i finally decided on some other model of Agv costing around 4k..And im perfectly happy with it..
      I think any helmets priced betweek 2-5k would be a good and reasonable buy... Though i had initial strong thoughts, now i think spending 12-24k and all on helmets is plain outrageous unless you are that crazy about it and u want such ultra high carbon fibre protection and all..!! On the shop i went to, which is one of the main helmet dealers over here, i found AGV and CROSS helmets to be good..!!

      • There is no need to any modification to fit M45 4.00-18. Alteration is needed only for Sirac 120.

            Ya cross helmets are indeed good and true value for money..range starts from 2k onwards..i`ve a cross helmet which i had bought for 3500 bucks and its been 2 yrs and its still in good shape..the padding is still intact and so is the paint despite of the helmet falling several times from my hand..the paint doesnt chip off that easily.

                  Ravi anna: since the ZMR comes with the rear disc it takes up quite some portion of space in the swingarm and thats why when the M45 is fitted it touches the chaincase. When we fitted it on Mohsins bike we thought it wont touch the case but eventually it did and had to chop off a little portion of it which was touching the tyre..

                  Cut off as in a little chop its nothing much. No alteration reqd for the front as the ZMRs front tyre spec is now 3x18, so the M45 fits in easily. Also, it just changes the way the bike does its speeds, it awesome!

                        Here you go. The white ZMR is Mohsin's, fitted with the M45. And the other ZMRs have the stock MRF.
                        From variable Bhps to a constant 17.6 Bhp.

                          • Yeah, saw the stock tyre on ZMR which was MRF Zapper 100 / 90 - 18 and of-course it is tubeless. I saw the same stock tyre with same specifications also available for ZMA-R and CBZ. Are those too tubeless or the same tyre can also be used with tube. Can any body throw some light on this ?

                            • What are the owners experience and honest feelings about the bike's overall looks, plastics, stickering. As you are riding the bikes for a long period of time, do you think its easy to maintain the showroom look as compared to other bikes?

                                but they have charged me more i guess
                                as they 1st told tht oil change is 180
                                when i gave my zmr for service they told 220Rs
                                when i took delivery they finally asked 230Rs
                                what is the oil cost exactly for zmr ?
                                1lts oil cost 175/-. ZMR hold more than 1lts oil. I think around 1.25 ltr...so its 175 + 45 = 220/-

                                No Ravi, for 4.00 chain case needs to be modified on ZMR. There is very little gap with stock tire.
