    Change of Piston, Rings or Crank shaft related components needs run in of at least 1,000Kms.
    No, sorry for the word overhaul,I mean opening the engine,Just piston rings, oil-seals,cam tensioner and some O rings.

          Gives a new lease of life...or rather extends it since the new rings will take more time to wear out than the existing old ones..same run in as new.Here is a look at the spark plug...it is side gapped for improving combustion. I had initially 'V' grooved but did not find improvement,so side gapped it and now the bike revs better...it is the stock plug which now had run 22 K + and still going strong

                          • @Aneesh :- Can you just let me know the benefit of having half chain cover on ZMA?

                            Is it the style?
                            Is it more convenient to clean?
                            Reducing some amount of weight on rear stay?

                                You have heard of mini-fairing. But have you heard of mini-chain cover?
                                Here's mine. btw it answers all three questions . But seriously, I like to keep a tab on my chain condition, and it is very easy to clean/lube. No need to remove anything. The cover helps prevent freshly oiled chain from splashing. Oh yes its not even 10% weight of the stock chain cover. btw its DYI.
