So this rounded the rear tire and kept the front tire flat. As the rear tires wants to lean and the front wants to stay upright! Din not feel the combo right.

    Changed the front tire to M45 3.00 X 18 and now its feels good, which seems to be inline with the rear tire now. But the m45 3.00 is 10k kms on. Its know for its uneven wear by the time its roled 10k kms. So need a new front tire.

    So tires have u guys tried for the front? other than the stock mrf ones.
    Also other options for rear tire?
    thanks
    My front m45 3inch has done 17.5k so far and no sign of woobling .

      Checked at two shops in Hyd last week. KBX pads for ZMA @ Rs 90. TOP pads for ZMA @ 125. Enjoy! Let every possible person know about this. Even the HH people.

        Me not getting wobbling as well on my 10k old tire. But its has worn unevenly as there is height difference in successive buttons though consistently. If u role the bike slowly u can feel the steps in the tire.

        I think some guys have tried unicorn diskpads costing 500 bux.

          Spares were the only concern i had bout the bike..so i would say a Know Devil's advocate... I made this decision thinking bout the pros and cons of all the machines i had in mind. Anyways there always will be 2 sides of a coin..!!

          Bangalore is a heaven for duplicate and after market parts...so expensive spares will have a work around

                            Now does it stop on its own without you using the brake lever?

                            I also got disc pads last week
                            125 bucks

                              125 bucks? which pads are these?

                              Any idea with the cam tensioner price? I was quoted 1600 bucks...thats way too costly.

                                There is a possibility! Check it out.

                                That's the original Nissin pads... imported u see... They were about Rs 1500 earlier. SO, a price hike

                                Yes. The showroom cost and the pads inside are KBX. Same KBX pads for Uni are available for Rs 90. I don't think there would be a difference in material quality... no idea though!

                                No options there mate better stick to originals for engine components. It was Rs 1400 earlier... so price increase here too!
