    My gixxer has buzz at 4.5 to 5k rpm and after 6.5k rpm. Don't know what's the issue but I'm used to it. I ride at 5k to 6.5k rpm which is around 70 to 85kmph on the highways mostly
    I have it only at 3k rpm, other than that it's the normal thing...below 3k rpm and above also, there isn't any prob.

      Make sure they don't add the oil supplement.
      Ask for motul mineral oil and not Idemitsu Semi-Synthetic oil.

      Chain Clean+ Chain Lube = 133/- approx.

          Seems like a semi synthetic engine oil

            Tyre replaced by MRF. Cost 450 only pro-rata basis. Had sidewall cracks.

                If it was a grey container then Idemitsu (semisynth) (~390INR)

                If it was black then Motul (mineral) (~308INR)

                  I have purchased new set of Michelin pilot sport for ₹4716. But after replacement i felt that the back tier lacks grip compared to old stock one . Do i have to change the back tier to Stock for better grip ?

                  Just completed roughly a 400 kilometers on this tier set . What is your opinion about it?

                  I did my 36000 kilometers on the stock tiers itself .Front tier seems okey for me now .

                  The back tier company profile is 140-60 but now i have 140-70 is there any problem regarding this ?

                  Sorry for the long post i am confused a bit about it.

                    Sadly, you chosen a tyre that has bad reviews almost universally.

                    From my ride experience, this tyre has okay-ish grip on dry roads and horrible grip on wet roads. This tyre is similar to TVS Euroslip (sorry Eurogrip).

                    The stock tyre is much better.

                        No issues. I'm using MRF front and Michelin Pilot Street 140/70 rear.

                        The stock rear tyre is good enough, unless you want to try some other tyre.

                          I have doubt about rear tier only

                          Recently my vehicle skid over a wet road badly it's first time in my 2.5 years of ride time i faced a tragic situation like that!!

                          So you have using Michelin in the rear do you faced any situation like this ?

                            No skidding problems. Skidding can occur when you use the rear brake too much with respect to the front brake.

                            However there is a difference.
                            I am using Michelin Pilot Street.
                            The tyre you have is the Michelin Pilot Sporty.

                              Oh i did forget to spot the difference . Thank you for the rapid replies.

                              So you are suggesting to move on with the current set up , right?

                                See if you can get the rear tyre exchanged. It is manageable to ride with this tyre, however you should be very careful in the wet. If I were you, I would have immediately changed the tyre.
