No in a quick throttle the larger dia spindle does the job, while here there are two cables from throttle twist to carb...while one pulls the other pushes...I guess it is to take off the slack in cable, and give a precise throttle feeling. The throttle twist also stops using the carb throttle valve stopper.Originally posted by SriramEfunds View PostWould that remind of quick throttle set up kinds?
Parts 2 and 3 are the two throttle cables.

I too have 4.00 M45 at rear in zma r but its not scrapping the sides. I have run about 1000km on it. Does the tyre bulge ones it gets older ? I think the alignment is not centered properly in your case.Originally posted by pitbull View PostIssue: Rear Michelin 4.00 touching either chain guard (left) or brake rod(right) on my KarizmaR
I have michelins M45 both front (3.00x18) and rear (4.00x18) - and they are amazing!!! on my Karizma. however, i noticed that the rear tyre slightly kisses the rear-brake-holding rod (on the right side)....and at times (when i adjust the tyre to the left)..the chain guard as well...
I just wanted to know if you faced the same problem, if so what did you do to set it right....
Thanks!

Can we fix ZMR's brake pedal in Karizma?
The svc guy told me that the cbz's pedal is direct fit,but you cannot use ZMR's in karizma!Both of them looks same,then why we can't fix it?

What are you trying to accomplish here? Is that your ZMA brake pedal not good or you find ZMR brake pedal better?RX100 1996 | Karizma 2004 | Karizma-R 2011 | RXZ 1999 | RX 135 1998 | RX 100 1993 | CBF150 2005 - 2011

well, i have a small query over here, i think sumtimes my zma is running a bit lean. cos it has to make an effort to accelerate when throttle is opened. is it a symptom of lean air+fuel mix. if so, is there any other means to determine if our mix gets more rich?

I tried to visually estimate the gap for the 4.00 m45 rear tyre.
RHS Its approx 6mm - 7mm between tyre and link rod
LHS Its really less, about 2mm max 3mm
between tyre and chain cover. I tried slipping cards of various thickness for estimation.
No alterations done. Even alignment or chain tightenning is not done since the tyre was fixed 1000km back. Jus old mrf tyre removed and this one fixed in its place.
Any idea how to improve rear braking?

How old is your bike?Is your airfilter clogged with dirt?Did you cleaned your airfilter?Did you cleaned carburetor?All these can cause the above jerk i think...Originally posted by DJ86 View Postwell, i have a small query over here, i think sumtimes my zma is running a bit lean. cos it has to make an effort to accelerate when throttle is opened. is it a symptom of lean air+fuel mix.
To find it remove the spark plug and see the colour of the tip. If the colour is whiter ,then the mix is lean. Ii it is black, it is rich. If it is dark brown, the mix is perfect.if so, is there any other means to determine if our mix gets more rich?

Occasional knocking will not cause any engine damage....similarly pulling with load at a higher gear and lower RPM produces the same effect.But if at higher RPMs you get knocking there are two reasons.Originally posted by on wheels View Post@PSR: I am having one question. Which part of the engine got damaged during knocking? Its the knocking caused by pulling the bike in very low rpm. Please explain.
1. AFR is very lean
2. The ignition timing had become advanced or if any mods had been done the compression had increased resulting in this.....
The Part to suffer damage are:
1. Spark plug
2. PISTON and rings
3. Crank shaft big and small end bearings.When Was The Last Time,You Did Something For The First Time.

The Part#14 is described as slider chain...I guess it is there to prevent the drive chain from hitting the swing arm when it becomes loose or when swing arm goes up and down quickly.Originally posted by Aneesh@4GHz View PostGuys what is this Part # 14? Where is it located?What is it's use?

When your brake wear indicator goes past the limit, or when braking becomes poor,it is time to change the brake shoe.When Was The Last Time,You Did Something For The First Time.

Sir one doubt,some times i felt like having knocking sound @ higher rpms.u said knocking happens if any mods had been done the compression had increased.So now my question is i have liquid gasket in my bike and i don't think its applied in corect manner by the svc ,So could it have increased my compression and making the knocking sound?Originally posted by psr View Post2.

@ shadu

LHS is same as u,max 2 or 3mm.Last edited by Aneesh@4GHz; 04-30-2011, 02:14 PM.Karizma Parts Manual - https://picasaweb.google.com/1010125...rizmaCatalogue
