      errr.. I was more worried about the 'handling' with fatter rear end,and slimmer 'front end'..one should match both for a comfy and predictable 'ride'...so that you don't have 'side slipping' and loose it .

            Yes bigger the better at all the "right" places front and rear ,as long as the waist is narrow!! That will give us more grip to hang on to/handling and to make the ride enjoyable.Longer the ride ,better it is Especially at some isolated place,because in residential areas etc if she's given freedom(rocket silencer) her screaming might get unwanted attention.So perhaps a track or a nice mountain twisty or ,like the coast hugging road to Mahabhalipuram or the Mangalore to Goa road.Pure heaven !!

                Most people here have the same plans in the weekend and the ECR is crowded with '(s)creams'

                  Western ghats,in monsoon.Rain will ensure that there won't be too many "riders" Especially the Mysore to Madikeri road. You can ride with full freedom!!

                    About your girl what's your bullet-converted-to-TCI girlfriend's dad saying about your modified girl(other,not his daughter )now? and how's your girl performing by the way?
                    Haven't showed off to her dad yet.
                    forget the TCI, once he sees the ALTERNATOR he'll be like
                    everyone on the highway are like when they see the thing i have attached besides the engine.

                    Besides, i never convinced or even talk about modding Rakesh's 220.
                    he just had a bug inside him, which now is showing its true colors.

                    I did what Nano said, the bike remain stationary and does not seem to move. I also did that "Whack the Throttle" test ... the bike responds somewhat slower than before but that sound / engine response thing is not too bad either.

                    I will try the method one more time... or get the clutch cable changed and see what happens.
                    It seems that your clutch is perfect.
                    get it tightened, changing the wire won't be necessary.

                    It very much CAN.
                    infact i feel that it feels better than the rtr as its not compact and doesn't revv very high to achieve power.

                    this bike can keep up with the engine, the acceleration, but on brakes and clutch as well as stability, rtr would win.

                    if you have a fiero and you are planning to buy an RTR, DO NOT DO THAT.
                    if not, then you can go ahead.

                    1 more thing.
                    i got the SELF STARTER installed.
                    and it works with higher compression too, as easily as it does normaly.
                    finally i'll throw away that footrest eating kicker.

                    today i was riding in heavy traffic, the alternator was rotating quite slower, so the fan fins were visibly moving.
                    one guy seated on the p135 LS asked "why have you attached the fan over the engine ?"
                    i said to keep the engine cool.

                    he was like, Does the FAN really cool down the engine ?
                    i replied, FAN's can lift up helicopters bro, this is just a motorcycle.
                    he was like ok ok. and he left.
                    i couldn't stop laughing the next 10 kms.
                    Giving a lot to a fiero.
                    Expecting a lot from a fiero.

                        So an e-start to get her purring.Abhi want's to do all the things on his girl,things electrical that is ,especially the alternator. he's a "lighting" freak like you hiding behind the mask of a guy who wants to keep his girl stock forever and ever.

                        The question here is, how long will Shreeni keep his eager hands off Abhi's girl !!! Something's gotta give and it will happen soon i think .Most probably with electrical/lighting.

                          gixxer - I cannot be compared to Nanotech, the only thing I had done is to get done coil rewinding on my previous bike CBZ & had put 90/100W Bulb on Gypsy Autopol round doom..

                          Nanotech is way above me when it comess to ligthing

                          & Coming to Shreeni & me - I think max we will put is round doom & try 55/60W bulb
