yesterday check the speedo error from my nokia 5800 gps the difference was of 4km means i make constant bike on 60km/hr and gps showing 56km/h ,and on 80 it shows 77 ,and on 30 it shows 26.
nokia with ovi maps says Position accuracy of less than 2m. it should give correct speed cus its a gps device conn with satellite .dont know my phone is correct or bikes speedo

i was with my friend dont checked his 220 speedo next time will check it.

done some drag session with his 220 for 700m. i remains every time ahead till 85km/hr after that he overtakes me like a jet.i always dump the clutch above 7k rpm and ever time the front tire gets some lift from ground and i make lead. don't know how he was starting

he was impressed by my pick up he says it shoots like a bullet .

Use Half Clutch Method!while drag racing!
Dump the Clutch half and rev the bike till 6-7 k rpm and then leave the clutch and see how the bike goes..The Bike will try to come up on one wheel you have to control it!

i think half clutch method burn the clutch plates thats why i don't use it rather than just depress the whole clutch and leave suddenly on high rev. and i want my clutch plates to last long. i drag friendly not for money or proud .if this Situation comes i will definitely use half clutch method
thanks

It costed 1780 bucks. For the front the Zapper FS 90/90(the ones on P220) is the only option left for 180 as per the recommend specs.

Btw, Nice click there.

Got my bike stripped

Today got my bike serviced from Castrol Bike Zone. It was altogether a different experience

.The guys there were helpful. First time i saw my bike completely stripped

.This SVC is lot better than TVS SVC. Although they did starting servicing her as soon as they got her but it took almost 4 hrs for complete satisfaction. As m most of the times on highways so switched to Castrol Power 1 Racing FS cost= 750. Got the front fork oil changed to 170 grade oil as it was giving some problem. Topped up the brake oil cylinders. And the great thing was it was all happening in front of my eyes.

Every thing cost me 1425+5hrs as all the time i was there.
Guys i think you should give this SVC a try if looking beyond TVS SVC.
