      • I change my gears at 4k rpm and sometimes rip it all the way till 7k rpm.

        Getting mileage of 32 to 34.

        Guys I am facing a strange problem.My console stops working suddenly and starts working randomly at its own will.What must be the problem with the bike.Is something getting short.

              • one thing i am noticing is this that when the bike is parked overnight in "rain" it takes a little before it can start, like 4-5 attempts of self/kick. so is water gets flows somewhere which causes starting problem??

                • hey karizmatic,
                  i think its normal for the bike to start after two or three starts in heavy rain,do check your spark plug cap for any moisture/contaminents and replace if necessary.

                    itz a cold start probs dude ..which is common in all ZMA R
                    just use 50% of choke nd a bit of throttle u ll b able 2 start it ....

                      So what would be the top speed then? n im pretty sure the pick up wise that it would be slow? im asking you so many questions but im really interested in this and dont know anything so srry....
                      Well dude. If ur Rear sprocket is bigger (more teeth) you will get better initial acceleration because ur gearing would have become taller. This however will take a toll on ur top end by around 5kmph.
                      Similarly, if ur rear sprocket is smaller, you will get less pickup and a higher top-end ( maybe 5kmph more) because ur gearing is shorter.

                      Edit: somebody correct me if I have mixed up the combinations.

                      for more info, refer the thread called Sprocketing or The world of Sprocketing on Xbhp.

                      I have faced this issue, check the wiring under/near ur ignition lock for some loose connection. I used to face this issue when I turned my handlebar to the right. The console and ignition used to get off.. I seriously feel thats the culprit in ur case. Also check the fuse box under ur seat for the ignition/display (this is highly unlikely ).
                      Lemme know,.

                        • Does this bike come with DC electrics?

                          • yes this is full dc, it can not be run without battery

                                Maybe they did not check ur Disc Pads properly.
                                When did u last replace ur disc pads? Check the oil level near ur brake lever.
                                Ask them to do brake bleeding if necessary. This is all I can think of.

                                However, if stoppies are ur intention, I would suggest you stick to ur so called Drum Brake Setup
