How is the stability under hard braking?
the wobbling issue is just bcoz of Tubed tyre on rear wheel and tubeless on front. right now i've 100/90 18" Zapper Q Rear and Zapper Fx 100/80 17" Front
Its not enough to know how to twist the throttle; you must have judgement to know when and where to do it.

act this was told by one mech. And also on stock tire there was never wobbling issue but this wobbling started only after getting new tire.

I think it is due to the improper seating of tire. Check the beading adjustment and ensure that it is uniform.Originally posted by abhiwar View Post

Trip was great you can check the pics posted here - Trip PicsOriginally posted by Aparajith View PostTechno bhai.... How was ur trip?
@abhiwar- as Aparajith has mentioned it has got nothing to do with the tire being tube or tubeless. Get both the tyres checked for wheel alignment & find out the real issue

How is the performance of zapper Q? i searched for it a lot. But was not available with any MRF dealer. Finally zeroed on Dunlop Geo-Cruiser. Geo-Cruiser is great. It sticks to road like lizard to wall.There's lot to it other than saddle....

zapper Q is a very good tyre, more on the soft side, that gives it a great advantage over corners, straights, and overall.Originally posted by nox2505 View PostHow is the performance of zapper Q? i searched for it a lot.

Hey Renny, am gonna change the fuel filter and air filter morrow. I plan to reduce the length of the fuel pipe as well. I will be checking it. I remember u saying about some MARUTI car's pipe used as replacement. May I know the model or part number for that spare so that I can get one as well(for backup and just in case purposes) ?Democracy is when 2 wolves and a sheep meet to decide who is for dinner.

actually i went to the MARUTI SC and showed him the pipe and told him to give me the replacement of the exact inner opening, so after trying 2-3 pipes he gave me the exact one but i dont know what part of the car it was, but you can get the same by the MARUTI SC, or from the auto parts dealer.
avoid using the original pipe as it will result in the same bend and make sure you get the replacement min 4 inches long, cuz you've to form a loop (behind the filter) so that it dont bend.
and find good blockers to stop fuel flow once the filter will be removed cuz when we did it, we wasted almost a litre of fuel, so either do it with very less amount of fuel in tank so that you'll be able to turn the whole tank the other side of the filter.
and why you're changing the air filter?The Magician"

Now that's weird. May be they have launched a cheaper version of the RTR quietly!!
