    so for d past two times i removed d engine oil using OIL SUCKING PUMP without touching the fairing and then refilled it.. the thing is tat i heard from few of my friends and even from a service center guy tat, removing the oil in this method s not as efficient as it is done by hand.. is it TRUE or a MYTH

    There is no need to remove lower part of faring to change engine oil...engine oil drainage bolt is in bottom and can easily be open....

    • Guys, Can we use Castrol Power1 Fully synthetic 4T SAE 10W-50 in karizma zmr? I am not sure about the oil grade specifications in the manual. Experts, need the pointers. For reference I've posted the link

        • Hi Guys,

          I wanted to find what are the front tires options we have for our bike?

          I just love the Pirelli SD Rear and wanted to check with all of you whether PSD is available for front to match our front profile too?

          I have used the MRF stock tire, Michelin M45 and Duro so far for front.

          Suggesstions are welcome!

            Please dont use oils greater than xW-40 as oil has to pass though the oil cooler and with increased thickness the flow thought radiator will be sluggish increasing engine heat and decreased engine performance.Saying with personal experience

                      Yeah, I was also thinking about that tire. Puneet used M35 without any problems in Ladakh so that looks to be a good option.
                      Also someone here has M62. How good is that tire?

                        Yup, heard that it will reduce the acceleration and the top end performance. Anyways thanx for the info.

                            yeah M45 isn't available in market for the same reason you've mentioned but i thought he changed M45 just because he didn't like it so i asked that..
