            2. If you are using stock handle grips then you may get pain....put some handle grips it should be OK.

                  I dont think you should try that burning idea , its very dangerous .
                  If I were you and nothing could be done , and The Petrol tank is covered in warranty then I would break the petrol tank itself . But thats crazy me .
                  Cant the SC guys help in this matter .
                  Ps : ask the SC about this which you do not take your bike to . So if you wanna implement that break idea , They would not know you purposely did it
                  Tank deisgn is little different on Xtreme, its not shallow, there is obstruction kind of thing near the filling hole, may its for avoiding something to fall in it, but some how that small peice of cloth fell into it.

                  And cloth is not floating, I completely emptied the tank, removed it, shaked it ...but no sign of the cloth.

                  Only option left is Vaccum cleaner..Which i dont have.

                  YEah, it showed 130kmph on speedo and RPM was hitting 11000. It was very good slope. Side effect was oil-leak from engine head..but was rectified easily by changing the oil seal.

                  @KAKA

                  Rather handle grips, invest on good gloves. Trust me. they will help a lot. at 1200/- you will get decent but good DSG gloves.

                    In case of wrist pain, select the thicker one, and I guess most grips available in market are locally made/un-branded ones. Difficult to say about quality (best is to change them every year)...

                      i dont think there are any branded unless there are any improted ones. But must be around 25-30 buks. We definetly cant make out quality but..we can jusdge it by the appearance.

                        riaz bhai ..one advice .. since you don't have a vacuum cleaner .. what u can do is .. go to a neighbor hood bike washing place or hh sc and ask them to blow pressurised air into the tank so that the cloth might come out .. i think u've understood what i'm trying to tell ... the mech's at sc have this pressurised air pipes which they use to clean the bike .. so may be this is an option

                        and one query .. can we get the two way gear lever for an extreme ? i mean like the one on unicorn .. i'm planning to get that fitted if it can be .. coz i don't think there's place for the whole lever to be fit it .. it will have to be bent ... i am asking coz i've an injury right behind my left foot's big toe

                          using blow pipe might make the cloth struck somewhere in the tank, so instead of PUSH, im thinking of PULL.

                          Coming to the gear lever, Small welding job will do the work for you. Wont even cost you more than Rs100. I dont think other gear levers fit on Xtreme. I have seen couple of time its welded.
