+ves

Excellent grip on Tar roads and in wet.
Awesome stability under hard braking, way better than M45.

-ves

Heavy, will cost u some performance.
Bike looses rear with the slightest amount of gravel, not a off roading tyre, the M45 performs better in these conditions.

Are you still checking this thread maga?

i had thought since booking the new bike you had forgotten the fiero.

, I know & after spending some money on modifying & it dint turn out nice, Although I have round doom I am not interested to put since I want to keep my bike stock as long as I can

I have driven your bike & it sure gives feedback like a super computer from the front end

, But for once I am not at all comfortable with that riding position don't know why

Super computer???

nice one man !!! Seriously it takes getting used to,if you jump from stock handle to that of mine,then you are bound to feel like, it's way low. Mind you,i first rode with the stock bullet handle,then the ACE handle and now to the upside down bullet handle set up.So it wasn't a sudden change.
Rathi agnihotri needs no modifications bro !

she's a goddess(when she was young) in bike terminology ,she'd be a Superbike!! not a cheap modified cafe racer.

Let's say she came out of the production line with superbike DNA. You have to admit though,that she has a wonderful chassis and design.

You have to envy guys who ride superbikes on a daily basis. What say?

Handling improvement is tooo much to talk about, one needs to feel this and then know how different the ride becomes.

i am definitely sure that turning it upside down will make it much better, besides i don't think that even if it touches the tank under complete tilts it will be a problem for me.
The only time it will be in contact is when i am taking a reverse, removing for the parking space.

My bike is still at the mech

, i am waiting desperately to rip it hard.
Its been soo long I've ridden nicely, or more than 2 minutes, max to max 2-3 mins i ride my mech's ZMA-R to satisfy my urge of riding.

i should definitely get my ride by this week for sure.

Regarding rear-sets, do we need to modify the shifter and the brake lever too ?

Yeah ,if you go for rear sets, you can go for the gear lever of ZMA/EXTREME/CBZ (cost 120 bucks) and the rear brake lever has to be modified too by shortening it and bending it.
Next time when Abhilash is here i will upload the close up of the rear sets done on my bike,it's cheap and simple .Then you can go for the rear footrest assembly of RX or hero honda bikes too(modify it as rear-sets) ,it will be cheaper and will look better than mine.There are lot's of ways of doing it,let me know when you decide to go for it.

If you think you can manage without straightening the handle when it's put upside down,try it out and since fz handle is much straighter than that of the bullet's.It might be ok without the need for hydraulic press work.

Ask the mech to put it upside down it's a easy job and sit on the bike and see ,though actual riding will bring out it's benefits.

I do

, Since Nano was looking out for a tyre and I was using the same one, I thought of chipping in with some advice.

**Sarvajit** · 03-07-2011, 04:09 PM

My bike was hiccuping today like there was no fuel, though there was easily 5-6 litres in it. On pulling the choke, it ran properly though.
Should I get the carb cleaned?

@NANOtechnology: Finally used the choke!

Reg handle - I found the stock to be very comfy for me, lets see I don't want to change anything as of now..

I can only say, that you are true fan of Rati Agnihotri.. coming to Chassis & design, who doesn't like superbikes U temme? If given a chance would love to take it to High RPM's

& I don't mind it doing on daily basis too ROFLMAO

You know me bro

i worship her!!!! "fan" is too mild an word for it

Let's say she's my dream SBK,like BMW S1000RR/GSX R 1000.
Such SBK's like you said, need revving real bad,most of the time they end up with riders who don't know they are married to an SBK.

Riding such SBK's is something i can only imagine bro.

Man, think of a dream garage with SBK's like her.

That would be a good way to go about it.Get the jets cleaned and then the slide diaphragm checked.

Sure, then the A:F ratio can be made richer too. AFAIK, the carb has never been tuned in its lifetime!

Bro,this thread hardly sees any activity when Nanotech's not around.So the next best topic is the two legged kind.Think of it in this way, at least it keeps one or two guys who check it in good humor.

Yeah most of the issues start and end with the carb.Get it tuned on a CO machine bro.You might be starving her and she might end up becoming a size zero.

are you sure, Then its great you are getting consistent mileage for so long

Hmm, In that sense I agree but only OT is also not a good thing, may be once in a while like now we are doing should be good.

Btw on to topic - looks like my carb tuning is fu$%d up, My bike is running lean & I am not getting a good mileage too..

I just got it richened now & mileage has gone down further, 35kmpl, I am not sure what's wrong, planning to check one or two times more in different bunks & decide on what to do next

Let's get this thing settled once and for all.Let's go to Bharat TVS and get it tuned on a CO machine.So stop checking mileage for now and let's just ensure she's not running lean.If she's still running lean then you might have to get the valve timing checked.

I was thinking on the same line, Give me 2-3 more days time & then we will go to Bharat TVS,

Is Bharat Working on Sundays too, If yes that would be convenient for me
