        I'm interested and I'll definitely take 3 filters.

            I agree with you but I get 24-25 during the worst possible traffic commuting !!! I havent crossed 4 rpm mark yet and my odo reads 275 kms !! Is it ok to maintain under 4 rpm for some more kms ?? or ... to keep it under 5 rpm ??

While taking a corner the bike just slids,i could feel that its just slipping out on the road today i had zero confidence on the ghat,where as these tires are fine while riding on dry! Am sure ill change it before next monsoon!
              Yesterday, I was driving on a bit muddy road and I faced some unexpected tire slipping while driving. The tires seems to perform very nicely on dry roads though and I have faced some occasional tire slipping on clean wet roads.

              It should be fine to take it upto 5k rpm. However, there is no such instruction by Honda on limiting the rpm of the bike.

                when i was taking a turn on dry road(i think there were some gravel on the road) my rear tire slipped.. it scared the shit out of me.. i didn't feel any slip in clean wet roads though..

                guys got my oil filter(made in Thailand) changed.. i think SVC's are receiving it now..

                    Come to think of it, even I have experienced a bit of tire slip on roads with gravel. The tire does not perform well on gravel and muddy roads.

                    • Well I my case, I really dunno how I maintained it ... It was some 5 to 6 K till the 300's (No traffic, No signal roads :P) ... Then the next 200 was below 4 K since I was stuck at SH Then the next 250 were heavy throttle, 8K's Then stuck with the Chennai commuting! Well I dont find any issues other than minor stuff and some heating issues, Which kinda everyone face cause of the high time commuting!

                          You can even go upto 7K RPM, but do it gradually, don't do sudden acceleration or engine braking.

                              So you buying the Ceebeer?BTW there are 3 Honda dealers at our place whats wrong with them?

                              D.I.Y-Valve clearance setting RTR180
                              D.I.Y-RTR180 brake fluid replacing/brake bleeding
                              D.I.Y-RTR180 brake pad replacing/cleaning
                              Exploded view of Mikuni BS-29 carb

                              A motorcycle functions entirely in accordance with the laws of reason, and a study of the art of motorcycle maintenance is really a miniature study of the art of rationality itself.

                                Cold tyres probably? Tyre temperature should reach an optimum before it really starts gripping. Usually after few kms of riding.
