    I would think Pirelli Sports Demon 110/90 is apt for ZMR. Though it costs a bit more. Else, try for M45 100/90, you'll not be disappointed. I'm sure many would agree. I'm trying to source one for my bike.
    Went to 2 michellin shops.. M45 not available.......

                I too think so, today too i ride on rain...(raining heavenly in Delhi) and it seems to be fine...and has run approx. 14500 KM on stock tyre...however if a tyre pressure is low then tyre bubbles and its same of all tyres..

                            I have changed oil only on due service dates or kms and i have not faced any problems. You are forced to stick to the oil used by ASC as they do not take responsibility for other oil and the stock oil performs ok. It performs good. You will feet heat issue from the engine initially... it will get resolved as the bike will get few kms under its belt... your croutch has to bear it for the time being......
                            I have rode my black beast for 5200+ kms in 75 days with +100 kmph speed for quite a distance... yet the bike is performing awsome!!!!
                            Ride Hard but Ride Safe.....
                            Cheers

                              Where are you off to? Couple of riders from Chennai are planning to do a MH road trip starting this weekend. Another Ninja 650R/250R gang might start early next month.
