    The rear tyre is acting funny(not skidding). I cant take longish corners now at triple digit speeds. The rear feels bouncy and unsettled while cornering. Will have to switch to the 110-spec MRF. Enquired at MRF Exclusive outlet here and it costs 1820 only.

    The bike completed 16000kms yesterday!!
    are you referring to dazzler rear tyre...is it zapper c on dazzler's rear???

        I have a friend who is looking for a tyre change, Mileage gonna drop by changing the tyre??
        Yes it's a direct fit and also the specs are the same. So no issues of mileage-drops!!

        Nops, it's a 17 incher tubeless.

        I have ridden the Dazzler for 30-35kms on highway and found it to be neutral. But couldnt check it's 'on-wet' surface performance!!

          Switched to 5w40 300V Today.

          The front disc was completely screwed up courtesy the sea beach riding which i did a month back.The sand and muck trapped between the pads scratched out the whole disc and the surface turned uneven and used to make super screeching noise while in motion.

          Replaced the brake pad. Fairing visor tightened.Labour charge:30 bucks only!!

          300V cost:840
          Brake Pad:340

          The front disc plate was replaced under warranty!!( I love TVS!! )

                              Yes the recommended rating is 20W40. But you can use oils of different grade but just make sure the last two digits is 40. The initials can be different.

                              In Semi-Synthetic you have the ones from Shell and Veedol Super Swift(Covered 8500kms on this oil, its very good), 5100T(10W40)

                              and in FS you have 300V, Power1 Racing and Petronas Sprinta

                              EDIT: It's Motul 10W40 300V FS which the bike is currently running on and not the 5W40.
