                I tried it once and regretted my decision.... Nothing wrong in giving it a shot, but am sure u will not use it again!

                      Only if you are Riding too fast on wet surface...
                      tires are not that dangerous,as you r thinking it to be....its just that it slips a bit on wet surface on hard breaking (i had my nervous moments though)...
                      Just control your speed on wet roads.
                      Any ways still if u want to,then change the rear tire at around 10k Kms...
                      I hve been riding with the stocks for last 11000 kms...not that big an issue..

                            Just wanted to try *W50 that's it...

                            300V is a racing pedigree oil, 900bucks a litre, and to be honest the RTR engine never sceams for that kinda oil, R1,CBR,GSX's etc does.
                            so if you'll be putting that oil in RTR you wont be doing justice with the oil..

                            Any day go for *W40 grade, or 20W40, 10W40.

                                That's right.
                                My bike's been running on 10W40 oil for quite a while now. The change from 20W40 mineral oil to 10W40 Semi-synth (Shell Advance VSX-4) was pretty evident. At the moment, running on Petronas 10W40 F.S. oil.

                                BTW Renny, I came for more than 850 kms to meet you, and you didn't pick the phone , and I even brought a mask for you, as a souvenir. Hope everything was OK with you that day.
                                Yes....
