@ajinkya : thanx

..will get it tightened...

My Fairing used to vibrate too...I taped it myself....not a single rattling noise after that...

the most obvious parts of vibrating are

a) just under ur headlamp, near the no plate bolting area, there is a flat flexible piece of plsatic... i removed it and taped the sides...
b) just next to oil coooler , there are small plastic caps..on whichits written "oil cooled" ..... that vibrates.. i tightened it...
c) fairing as a [{WHOLE}] vibrates.... i somehow managed to loosen the fairng screws, and put little pieces of taping.... .
d ) two other very very obvious places of vibrating are , front "air intake like" openings covered with a plastic mesh.... this piece of mesh can be removed b pulling it out carefully.. or u'l damage hooks ...
preferably can be done wen u remove the flat plastic coverng near no. plate area...
next is the side air vents on the fairing.......

thats all i managed to find vibrating on my bike

shall post pics of where u must double tape it if u really require it ..

thanks for the details bro...
ya pics wud be really helpful...
waitin

what was wrong with the old ones u changed ? worn out ?
will catch hold of proper ppl.. .

**Praful** · 11-01-2009, 07:48 PM

Did a few topspeed tests after a long gap (read 8-10 months

)....Pretty happy with the results. First time my bikes speedo showed anything more than 135

max speed without crouching: 130kmph
max speed with crouching: 141Kmph

And there was more to go, had to slow down for the traffic.

Note: These are speedo indicated speeds, and my bike displays 2-3kmph lesser than the stock speedo due to difference in front tyre profile.

okay it goes like this...
took my bike in may 09'
some days i got no problems in breaking but after sometime say 2 weeks brakes just became useless bike doesn't stopped where i want it to be..
it always lagged in accuracy.
i went pbk several time since then but they do some sand papering and say 'ab ho jayega sahi'
went there 2-3 times more and finally got pads changed..
don't know about old ones why they are crappy... can't be worn in 2 weeks...
