    Man thats a lot of PSI both at front and rear !

    You are sacrificing on a lot of stability and traction with those PSI levels.

    • That seems a lot! The max I have gone was 30 F 35 rear on the fabulous Bikaner-Jaisalmer road, but normally stick to manufacturer recommendation which is 28 F 32 R.

      • i think most of you must have filled nitrogen as this works best for high speed tubeless tyres.


        has any one got an idea regarding wheel balancing of ninja ? is it required to be checked ? there were weights on the wheel disc visible on the test bike provided by bajaj during the initial testing given to press.

          No need to check unless you are facing excessive vibrations and / or wheel wobbles while riding.

          • ^^ balancing should be checked after a tyre change. And also when the tyre is being changed, the heavy point should be opposite to the valve. That whill help in balancing it further.

                    Thanks bro.... on the straights I touched 145kmph... On the curves must have been 80-90... am not sure, coz I was shit scared to look at the speedo while turning.

                    Yes buddy... just 3 guys.. one had to leave early.

                    The boots are borrowed and are made in Thailand. But will get a pair soon... possibly not A-star. Too many things on the list right now.

                        Not sure about MMSC, Chennai. However in Kari, Coimbatore we were charged Rs. 250 per hr per bike.

                        Ericin had got it arranged with the Manager @ Kari Motorway.

                          Not a bad deal if you ask me. I used to drive my esteem often on the Sriperambudur track at Chennai and IIRC I used to pay around 1k for a session that lasted almost an entire afternoon or morning.

                              Really want to make it to the track but paranoid of two things... one is parking in an unknown place like at a hotel and another, dropping the bike. Maybe i'll just ride with you guys next time to CBE or Chennai and cheer you guys on track. Might switch to becoming an offical amateur photographer for that day.
