      Hmm. Keep the same pressures regardless of how many people are seated on the bike. Also, keep the same pressure in monsoons (don't under inflate - thinking it might give more contact patch).
      Got a $5 head? Get a $5 helmet.

          I guess what is showing in the image posted by IntoOblivion is correct. My 2012 ZMA R has the same tire pressure info and I follow the same.
          May be the TL tires on Divya Sharan's ZMR has different requirements? I recollect that the TL and TT versions of Hunk required different tire pressures.
          Anyways, I will check the sticker on my ZMA's tank today and confirm.

            I took this pic from a Karizma R...so I think the difference is due to the change in generation of model..

              When I checked the pic the rear tyre pressure for solo and pillion was 29 and 33 respectively...so my guess (pardon me if I am wrong) is that Divya Sharan had read the value from top ( Rear solo as front and rear pillion as Rear)...

                Might be the timing chain which is common in Karizmas.

                  I always put 25 psi in the front and 32 psi at rear.

                    • Air filter

                      Going through my treasures I found my old zen mpfi air filter which I had used earlier, but removed when it got dirty. As a bonus a fresh filter which I had bought was also there. Since the frame is undamaged it is a fairly easy job. Now I have to see if the hot glue gun is lying about somewhere.

                              Assuming that your motorcycle runs off H7 bulbs, you may opt for the P220's 55W H7 bulb. In P220 both low and high beams are powered by 55W H7 bulbs.

                                Today im going to hmc ss, whr i will confirm exact which type of bulb it is, if its h7 as u say thats great, but is there any difference in high and low beam bulbs or both are same but reflectors are made differently?. Also uphrading to 55w in both high and low beam will work fine? I mean my battery is 6ah 12v as per manual.
                                Thanks in advance
