    what is your opinion .
    Its a piece of shit .. that tyre. Using it last few months, The only tyre thats probably worse than this was the FZ tyre.

    Stick to stock MRF tyre.

      There is also a new tyre by CEAT a 90/90-17, saw it in the tyre shop. Looked good, haven't used it, new launch so no reviews, but it will probably be my next change.

      As Praful said, the Michelin Pilot Sporty is rubbish in the wet.

            Nope. New tyre, not even on the website yet. Part of they dhoom zoom tyres i think, not sure. But it looked good and of the correct profile.

                  How well?
                  Is your bike looking brand new after that?
                  How much this polish costs?

                          You may have broken the headlamp assembly mounts. You will have to open the fairing to check this.

                            I've got a new issue now it's making a different noise like air pumping out from some where can figure went to bajaj and told me to take it to kasturba center ah so fed up now. Also when riding when holding gear automatically increases the idling rpm not sure what the issue is this weekend I may take it to service center.

                              There is a hole below the silencer near the pillion footpeg, close that hole with something and check if the air pumping sound is still there. If not, then no problem.

                              The RPM increasing in gear is a feature of the ECU, it is prevent the bike from stalling.

                                Is it normal because if I just release the clutch it automatically moves don't even had to accelerate.
