I installed the simota filter and i swear i never noticed any mileage drop.. Sound is neither loud or too low.. Its just perfect and the pick up is simply amazing!! Try it and you'l know.. But the installation must be carefully done.. If not i would advice cosworth.. Do not choose anything other than these two.. Never..
        Can you tell me why you r suggesting cosworth over k&n.even I m using k&n never seen any mileage drop..

        • My Cosworth.

          Just after plonking in.


          After 4k of riding through all imaginable conditions.


          VFM Product, and filters like no other, still dont believe me? Compare a K&N and Cosworth side by side and the quality difference will be spot on.

          • My simota day after installation.. Should still look into its condition now.. After 3months.. As suggested by ashwin, k&n is least in terms of quality when compared to simota and cosworth..

              How much did you pay? What all changes you notice? Is there any increase in FE?

                  2500/- Labour charge was free!! Lucky me.. Changes were that the acceleration increased like hell.. The magnitude of which was only known when i dragged with 4p-220s with my friends.. Beat them in acceleration.. One of them overtook me but i gradually picked up and beat him. However there was another guy who had a same filter as mine and he was a few feet ahead of me.. Stock 220s were however no match.. A p-220 with filter however can beat zmr with or without filter

                          Both pics are of my 2011 ZMA. First fixed inside filter box, then got bored and plonked directly onto carb. Running on 140mains, shortened return spring and raised slide needle. Biking Nirvana.

                          Rs.1500/- for the filter. Rs.250/- for jet.

                              hey all ZMR friends,

                              I am having ZMR almost for 10 months and very happy with performance and comfort of riding. In last 10 months following are my negative feedback.

                              1: Front Disc pad had to be replaced after 9000 KM run and it's relatively costly around Rs1200. My question to other ZMR owners, kindly share after how much driving changed the Front Disc pad. My younger bro is also owning Black ZMR and that bike Disc pad got changed by 7000 Km only.

                              2: Once after refilling the full tank of petrol from almost empty tank, the fuel pump got damaged and had tough time. Got the bike loaded on Tempo for 26 Km. The fuel pump covered under replacement warranty.
                              Did other ZMR owner have similar bad experience.

                              Suggestion on K&N Filter:
                              Among the friends any one replaced stock filter by K&N filter, if yes please share model number.
                              Disc pads can wear out as early as 5k kms or as late as 15k kms. Depends upon the usage. Retails for 1150/- here in Bangalore.
                              Regarding the fuel pump going kaput, its a rare case. But, I've heard at least 2 more people suffering from the same. Good that it was replaced under warranty.
                              K&N/Simota/Cosworth air filters - No idea. Enjoying the stock setup for the past 18k kms. Planning to keep it stock till at least 50k kms.

I'd advice you to stop giving the bike at the svc and find a good private mechanic.. Anyway 20k kms done.. No use of the waranty as i guess it may have expired.. Even i bought mine in 2010 and 21k+ kms done!! Bought in dec
                              AFAIK, ZMR comes with a warranty of 40k km or 3 years whichever comes 1st.

                              No issues. I'm running a 55w halogen for over 6 months now. No issue so far!

                                Apologies for multiple posts, but saw this now.
                                Top speed is the same, around 126 kmph true speed, you only reach there faster.
