    Mrf > Vfm, good grip in dry, wet is okish.. Again soft and very prone to puncture..

    Comfort well it depends on the tyre pressure you are having..
    Plus your condition of shocks, road and speed you carry..

    I am using mrf and satisfied with it..
    If i have moolah then i'll get Michelin

    For front i am on zapper fq
    No problem with grip.
    What zapper fq? Can you list the exact name and price?

      You can enquire/google about these two tyres. Have heard they are good (but not used them). One of my friends has it on his NS, says it's good for wet and dry, and gives lot more comfort than stony Eurogrips

      Front: MRF REVZ FC 110/70 (stock: 100/80)

      Rear: MRF REVZ M 140/60 (stock: 130/70)

              AFAIK, all MRF front tires have F as prefixes. Like FS, FQ etc. Rev Z is a rear tire by that nomenclature. Not sure if there is a Rev FZ.
              For the front, you may try Zapper FY2 100/80-17.

                    As I understand, that they open up the engine and using some solvent,( My local mech used the rubbing alcohol on my pulsar 150) to clean any carbon black on the cylinder walls and piston head. Though the presence of carbon black usually meant that the afr ratio was out, or there were impurities in the petrol . but i got no idea on the cost

                      Now a days, u can decarbonize the engine without opening the engine. Just mix the decarboniser to engine oil , run the engine idling for 15 mins & u r done. Mainly its not required for new generation petrol engines (upto 50k km).

                          You are right, F is for Front. In REVZ FC the F comes in second part. It's a front tyre.

                            I changed both of my tyres last week. The stock MRF ones lasted 18k odd kilometers and it offered good amount of grip both dry and wet.

                            My present set of tyres are:

                            Front: MRF Zapper FY 110/70-17. (Bought for Rs. 1750)

                            Rear: MRF Zapper S 140/70-17. (Got from my friends Yamaha R3 he changed his stock one to Michelin).

                            So far I'm happy with this configuration and it gives round profile so I can lean more in the corners .

                              Hi! Today I changed air filter element and I saw some quantity of oil under the mesh.
                              Is it normal or its problem?

                                The engine has PCV (positive crankcase ventilation). There is a hose from the top of the crankcase to the air filter to remove vapours of engine oil and fuel. While a majority of it is sucked into the cylinder again, a small % is left behind. This accumulates over time. Just wipe it if it bothers you. Nothing to worry. But if there is more than a couple of spoons of oil, your pcv valve needs to be checked/replaced.
