        Please some one quickly help, dealer doesn't have 100 section for front and is asking me to fit 110 section. He is saying there will not be any issue. Can i fit 110 section in HORNET?

          No, don't. 110/70 from 100/80 will affect handling and flickability.

            Dealer is adamant that it will not affect much. Only 10 mm change is there. I'm confused now

              Say you'll find a different dealer. They'll say anything to sell their products.

              P.S. The rim is not designed to take a 110/70. Also, the difference is not just 10mm.

                  You can fit MRF Zapper with 100/80 52 (52 is harness as per stock tyre manual).

                  Edit: However, since Masseter product listing includes 100/80. Ask the dealer to get for you.

                    Thank you for all your contributions. I contacted another dealer and he has 100/80 in stock. I'll get them changed today.
                    Price front 2100
                    Rear 3800

                      Some dealer give extra discount if you give them your old tyres, do confirm with them, I can’t quote exact price for that. Else there are many shops who deals only with used tyres and rims. Get a quote from them as will if available in your city.

                        Found them. Click image for larger version Name: IMG_20190323_155310.jpg Views: 1 Size: 92.7 KB ID: 1966084
                        Edit: oh damn. The grip.
                        In my old tyre my front always slipped under hard breaking. Forget stoppies lol. I couldn't even burnout my old rear tyre as the front kept sliding when I tried a burnout.
                        But after a little warm up. I tried harsh breaking and somehow did stoppie on this hornet [emoji23]
                        Even tried leaning harsh into corners, but bike did not lose its line.
                        I got the pair for 5900 and no fitting charges were taken. Great experience. Thank you all seriously.

                                Gearbox update:

                                ODO reading: 4500 kilometers

                                Gearbox has become slick and smooth, it's a joy to shift gears now. Engine has also become smoother, enjoying the smooth ride [emoji4][emoji4][emoji7][emoji7]
