    I thought so too, btw does the R15 chain have a master link? I haven't found one on mine.

        Chain-Sprocket set would cost Rs. 1530 for FZ. No idea about R15

        Ride safe and have fun.

              Dude...I was talking about the stock (revZ-s) Metzler sportec looks awesome but at the end its little too much opting it for r15, stock tyre is what we have to go about. complete package& will ensure perfect riding characteristics....

              The other one that I often get is whether to go for pirelli sport demon (stock size). Wouldn't be bad if I go for it baring the cost, which is way too expensive Does it worth the money?

                You must be using the original chain. The replacement chains have a master link but not the factory fitted ones.

                  The thing about pirellis is, its very hard to get a pair of those here in India(atleast in Chennai it is hard to get).

                    Yes bro it is not the tyre like we buy whenever we want unlike other brands. But in chennai to my knowledge it is available through a direct dealer, I got the number by calling pirelli customer care 1800 toll free & the other is in GP road But he says "no manufacture warranty & it is imported, we all know about pirelli so warranty not required". the cost would be Rs.5300 only

                      It completely depends on your usage and caring of it. Mine lasted 23k with cleaning only at 3k gap.

                      It doesnt have one. It requires a special tool to remove and refit the chain. Called a pusher here. I don't know if that's the real name.

                      FZ chain sprocket kit costs around Rs.1500 while R15 v2's costs around Rs.3000.

                          That's what I was trying to convey on my post you exactly spot on with it dude:thumbup:, its completely relay on usage. But I may probably not very sure on whether it will last till 30k, but 25k, its pretty much there


                          Thanks for the cost details dude

                            My bike's transmissions has got rough of late. Gear shifts are clanky. I can hear the sound of the shifts from inside my helmet . The oil is just around 1.5k kms old, I don't think its something to do with the oil. What would be the problem? It used to be much smoother before.

                              If its not old oil then its the chain... Are you lubing it at regular intervals?? Check the chain slack and lube it..

                                I lube and clean it regularly at every 500 kms. Strangely this happened after I recently did the chain maintenance.
