        How did you map the fueling ? As we all know the bike leans out on higher RPM . Have you done any mods for the fueling ???


        valve grinding helps stop anykind of knocking in the bike my bike even with a filter and a exshaust runs smoother than a normal u get that extra smoothness in the bike and less of any kind of engine knocking

        had done it in my karizma as well
        also by opening the exshaust ports and shaving bikes compression has increased and it picks up speed way better than normal

          @Malcom: Checkout Hemank thread on his 4 Yamahas, may be you can get some design cues from him.... !

          btw can you share some pics of the bikea and the piston work that you have done? Where in Mumbai did you do it?

                      Good mods there.

                      But, more than anything else, I really liked your ZMA. Who is the lucky bugger who bought it from you?
