but tell me more about the last two pics.. the fans..
and also about those rtr grabrails. direct fit?
ya the RTR grabs are direct fit

FANS . . . .
, i have fixed 2 fans , one is at the back side of the cooler ( the air flow will be towards the HEAD ), and the another under the tank . . .which is controllable by a manual switch ..
during hot weather city ride
, engine heats up very quick and the petrol tank do heats up , this fan helps in disposing the heat , now the petrol tank never heats up
and also engine cools down quickly when the engine is off . . .
this also helps during touring - when you stop your bike for resting . . .

@yash3: Those fans are just psychological, they won't really help in reducing operating temperature.
EDIT: My bike got its second Sirac this weekend. The earlier one lasted 15K kms. And the odo went beyond 55555 kms, sadly could not click the moment as my camera phone when kaput!

BTW, yes you can maintain the psi what bajaj recommends. It hardly changes with tyre spec..
Dont you feel the R15 front tyre will induce some speedo error, unlike the IRC, which will make it more accurate?Comment

Be happy its 10K, I've hardly done 4K kms in the past 5 months where I should have actually clocked 10K.Originally posted by vinal_22 View PostGood going brother.. I am 10K behind you

Since its a TT tyre that is being used as TL, I prefer keeping it 1-2 psi higher than stock ratings.
R15 front will make the front tyre more optimistic, will show a higher than usual speedo/odo reading.

Okay.. Better, if the grip level is still good.. BTW, got Sirac here this time right? For how much? Sai Iyengar??
You still have the IRC up front? Guess its < 15K..Comment

Ok this is weird. My bike was showing 88Kmph with Sirac at the back and Stock tyre in the Front. With IRC it showed 86 Kmph. With IRC the speedo becomes more 'accurate' i.e. shows a lesser speed.Originally posted by yuv_biKING View PostAlready my speedometer shows 91-92 KMph @ 6k RPM in 5th gear after getting the sirac for rear, with the stock tyres it were 83-84 KMph...

Got Sirac for 2.6K inclusive of fitting and Nitrogen @ Sai Iyengar Lalbagh Road.Originally posted by vinal_22 View Post
IRC in the front has 3K lesser than rear, its 12K kms old. But it needs a change. Will change it within the next 2-3K kms max._________________________
