              Brief moments of ripping/high speed run wouldn't affect a bike during running-in.Just make sure that you dont do it for extended period of time/frequently.
              yeah...i 2 think it will be fyn...

              wat abt the chain lubrication??

                That rear is the same as R-15 i believe. How much $ & is there any gain in perfomance & grip levels.

                      The rear cost me 1450 while the front one 1250. Both are tubeless. As far as grip is concerned, all i can say is that it takes the handling of the bike to three four levels up. Its sooooo good. It absolutely sticks to the road and gives you enough confidence even when you lean really hard. Extreme lean angles are not a problem at all with this tyre. Although it feels that the top speed has decreased and acceleration has increased, a guy in the tyre thread told me it has stayed the same. He also explained me this matter. I have posted a link to it in the previous page of this thread. You can check it out if you want to know more about this.

                      I will try to post some more pics as per your demand. But it doesnt look that skinny. And when you have got such grip from the tyres do you really care about the looks? At least i dont.

                        going by the pics that you've put,it does look skinny.But considering it's a 100 sec tyre,which even the smaller RTRs have,I'm sure it'll look just fine......just wanted to see though

                            Ride quality is pretty much the same. But its the handling that has improved by leaps. Scrapping my footpegs even with a pillion is not an issue.

                                chk 4 the idling rpm..if it is 1k or below that....thn make it 1.3k...
                                apart from that u can urself clean the spark plug...try these two out by urself...if still u have problems..then go for a mechanic...

                                all ur above problems are related 2 improper combustion...so it may be ur AFR is not right...or ur spark plug and carb needs 2 be cleaned up...

                                do the basic checks first...
