          • Hi guys yesterday i changed my fi's engine oil from tvs to castrol power 1 racing(costed me 750 from castrol bike zone Naraina New Delhi) after oil change bike has become butter smooth,all the vibrations are vanished tappet's noise comes down marginally but i feel that top end has come down because yesterday itself before oil change i tuched 109 KMPH effortlessly but today i tried my best but was unable to cross even 98 Kmph on the same road.
            so what do u guys think is it becasue engine oil or something else ?

                Yep...its the same profile. Did'nt wanna lose pick up and flickabilty with a higher profile tyre....though the stability increases!

                    • Yeah i think i'll be switching to a Zapper Q as well. My baby went in for a service yest..lately its been lagging at slow speeds and such, as well as making horrendous noises from the rear brake. Lets see how Castrol Bike Zone does.

                        guys i have been using a zaper Q for about a year now on my pulsar.
                        Honestly its g00d for cornering and holds stable.
                        But put it under a lil stress of hard braking and you skid.

                        The initial 4-5k kms its was good. but after that the grip got worse ,but if you look at the tyres there is still a lot of it grooves left in them. But still it dosent hold .

                          Great news ! Keep us updated about the tyre if you get a Q 100/80 ...Otherwise I am thinking about M45 4.00*18 as suggested by GoGreen

                              Zapper C or Zapper Q or ZAPPER Y ...Whats the diff. between these three in terms of others except thread pattern? am in great dilemma which one to choose for my APACHE 150 which has profile as mentioned in manual

                              FRONT : 90/90 x 17
                              REAR : 90/90 x 18 (or) 100/80 x 18

                              My concerns are flickability, pickup, better cornering, Wet braking as well as somewhat better grip in non tarmac...

                              So plz do the need for me guys for the rear tyre alone
