    Do post your short term and long term review.

          I just came thru some very useful piece of info..

          In the case of jammed AFR screw, Acetone can also be used in combination with automatic transmission fluid to create an effective penetrating oil. Brake fluid is sometimes used in place of ATF. These mixtures (usually 1:1) can be useful in loosening rusted or stuck bolts.

              True. But keep in mind that zapper q is purely a tarmac tyre and won't perform well off road which is needed in India coz most places we hardly have proper roads.

                      I havent dealed with a carb for more than 4 years now bro.. in future i will make sure i dont get a carb engine..

                      But thats a wonderful piece of info that you stole from FB if I am right..

                      Just kidding.. thanks for the share and i will keep in mind while helping my pals in case..

                      EDIT - Mind you.. avoid direct contact of brake fluid with any plastic part of the body.. its gonna eat up the plastic..

                          The front sirac street performs better than the sirac rear.. i use the combination of sirac rear and front.. rear tire pressure reduced to 32..

                                Acetone will destroy the o-ring of the AFR screw. Acetone with rubber parts is a strict no-no.
