    Yes,Load Index is an issue which is why i dropped the idea since the PSD130 has a much lower LI.
    Ended up with PSD of stock size at the front & MRF REVZ 150/60 of the DUKE at the rear.Much Much better than the Conti's. Haven't taken it to the corners yet but happy with it so far

            3k for the PSD & 3.1k for the MRF-mind you KTM SVC's are selling them for around 4k!

                  I am a proud owner of cbr since april 2011 and have not faced any issues with quality or fit or finish. Ive faced only small issues which exists in 2012 models also such as paint chipping on the head area or poor ContiGos.

                        Totally depends on
                        1. How you ride
                        2. How you maintain your bike
                        It varies from 25 to 40+
                        If you drive insanely and redline at every gear you will get 25 but on an average we can say you will get 30 to 33kmpl in the city(if you change gears between 4-5k rpm.)

                            Your enthusiasm is appreciated but please don't have such short replies as "thanks n welcome".
                            It is against the forum rules, make your contribution worthwhile.

                            I am also a owner from first batch CBR, no problem of quality so far. Clocked 8k till now.
                            Mileage is absolutely dependent on how you ride anything from 25 to 40

                            Happy Biking....

                              the contiGOs are poor.. they easily lose traction on smooth surface like tiles or some plain metal surfaces on roads...

                              replying to the question asked recently ,
                              no.. the quality is good.. and i mean "good" not excellent.. overall, the bike is really good.. apart from poor after sale service and bad tyres , there is no major prob with the bike..

                              btw my question is, the mrf revzC of duke 200 is 150 60.. and the stock size for our cbr is 140 70... so wont the top speed , acceleration be affected in any way if duke tyre is fitten on our 250r ?? will the functioning of ABS be affected in any way if a 150 60 size tyre is fitted ?

                              one more question : are the duke's mrf revz tyre better than PSD on wet roads and cornering ??

                                Another noob question guys...Every one has been talking about the contigos on the CBR being not so good / bad...is it actually that bad even for commuting or for a noob like me who is getting his first bike?
