    I may change over to the Zmr's tail based on your response.
    no problem whatsoever even in zma-r.

        • I would be visting service centre this weekend... One major area of concern for my bike is Starting problem.

          Could someone please help me with the possible reasons why the starter is not working... It only happens early morning or sometimes very rarely at night...

          I dont think its a battery issue as in my last service 2 weeks ago i charged battery completely... Need expertise feedback for starter problem in ZMR

            must be a problem in starter. may be it is not taking the load when engine is cold.

              ok i will get my starter checked.. can this also be spark plug issue.. usually its said that all bikes need to replace their spark plugs once in 10K kms

                      How it happened? Have you rode on the pothole unknowingly?

                        No problems whatsoever for most of the ZMR owners. The plastic is quite strong. As we've seen in some accidents damage to the plastic is mostly on its paint.

                        I think you mean the frame sliders. Till where I think, no one of us used them in our ZMR's. Neither is there any space on the fairings to install one without cutting them.

                        From variable Bhps to a constant 17.6 Bhp.

                        • Thank you guys. Much appreciated!
                          What do I intend to do? Stuff ZMR drivetrain into an Ambition chassis and watch others run scared!

                            yes it has to be changed once every 10k kms.
