A radial tyre differs from a normal tyre in its construction. A radial tyre has transverse radial plies within the tyre that run perpendicular to the direction of travel. Radial tyres have more flexible sidewalls, Reduced fuel consumption due to less rolling resistance, a softer ride etc.
For example, Yamaha fz has radial tyres. And yes they are tubeless.

Congrats on your purchase .
Opt for a good quality Disk lock and you can use a traditional chain &lock (if a theif still wants to steal it then no one can stop him)

GPS tracker is now used in few commercial vehicles for tracking their location(not for safety) and it will work but not sure in a bike with a small battery .

Any electrical lock is pretty much use less and just an added gizmo.

Thanks a lot Giftonsamuel .. I have

now my query is about the lock system.. Lock system comes along with the replaceable battery.. right?? i dont mind changing the battery often. Anyhow i will look for good Disc Locks.. sorry for my ignorance.. thanks once again..

Hi guys,

any advise on insurance claims on our bike and the honda SVC...? experience..? precautions..?
I had a minor fall last week (coz of a damn travels cab having no RVM's, taking a sudden left without any turn indicators, on a f'in rainy day ! my bad, I got skidded and f'd up ). Thinking of driving a Rhino tank first to clear out these guys first and then drive the bike damn frustrating...

The thing is, there were visible damages to the gear level (got bent), left side fairing (got scratched), gas tank small dent (on the right - dont know how that came ) and the handle bar was out of alignment (might be the clipons too).

Apparently the left rear view mirror, turn indicators and rear cowl were intact .
I temporarily straightened the gear lever with my tools, to reach home and went to the SVC next day for insurance claim, gave the bike, registered the claim, got the estimation, and the approval on claim.

The SVC guys added an extra (unexpected) part to the damage list the front fork.
I got the estimated bills of all other guys too , they seem'd to added this part to every other insurance claimed bike there.
Are our front forks so flimsy...? really?
They also say they can't remove tank dents (its a small one - even I know how to remove - I just dont have the tools and time), and have put the whole tank for replacement (~9k).

I think that these guys do this purposely to gain quick bucks for the parts, since its going to be an insurance claim.

Now,
It seems even the supervisor from the insurance company put the front forks for a re-check and approved all other parts.
I also called my representative at HONDA SVC and told him i need the old parts given back to me :P
any experienced advices on such issues... on how to deal with these guys ? ideas..?

Hi guys,

Help me with 2 questions -
1. Do i need to change oil filter.
2. Any easy hack to dispose used engine oil.

Firstly, I don't think Honda ASC's sell the spares to individuals.
!!!

Ride safe !

Hi guys, I'm new to xBhp. I bought a second hand CBR 150R (Black and Candy Palm Green). Anyway, I was looking for a decent riding jacket in the range of 3-4k. Sparingly used 2nd hand ones would do too. I live in Thane, Mumbai and would appreciate your suggestions.

Welcome to xbhp brother.

Thanks man...
I paid 65k for my baby CBR, but have had to do some major repairs that has cost me about 40k.
But anyway, once she's done up I'm sure she'll do great.
