      @Apar

      You will need to remove certain amount of links of the chain as 180 has a longer one.

        Agreed Swagat. The chain can be opened for that right a-la 220?

          Has to be. You need to open up the lock/linkage and free off 5-6 chain links.

                Guys.. I am in a bit of research right now, to find the prefect first bike for myself..
                Inclined towards 160, as it has got some power, can yield enough milege for me blah blah blah..
                But its the safety aspect that I am concerned about. I mean the stock tyres.

                Are they really unsafe..?
                I mean, I have seen owners testifying, 'It skids like cheese on a hot pan'.. Is that really true..?
                Should I swap the tyre incase if I go for an RTR..?

                PS : 180 and FZ out of list..

                  TVS tyres are bad in wet conditions only. It works good in dry tarmac. Considering you buy the bike now, you can use them till may2011 and can change tyres just before rains. Or another option is to force dealer to buy back the tyres.

                        Done including the visor would be approx 900-1100rs. O-ring is around 800-900rs, normal is around 800rs

                        Get the bike and ride it for a few days and decide yourself on the tyre change. TVS tyre are'ntas bad as one thinks. ut if u r a ripper, then change it, else 1st tri it out and then decide!



                        guys,

                        I put my Rtr's battery on my bro's Zma for some testing. i was checking th rtr and this ***** gives full power to horns and indicator even at 2k rpm. heck i guess i donteven need a battery now:P

                          It is only because ZMA's RR unit output is much higher then RTR.

                            Driving a RTR, without battery is not recommended though, it'll eat that D-FI.

                              No no, i was talking abt RTR. It powers the horn and other stuff's fully even at such a lower rpm's. other bikes struggle to do that!
