In the picture of the Enfield bullet the inlet runner is quite long.. and the reed valve is mounted near the carb and not the inlet of cylinder......If it was done, then the torque the author is describing will be absent.

I was wondering what will happen if the reed valve is connected to the ZMA R like it is fitted on an RX100 . It could backfire (not the bike , the idea

) 'cause ZMA R ignition timing is dependent on throttle position (isn't it ? ) .
BTW does anyone have an exploded view of the ZMA R sans the body ? I'd like to have a look at the internals of the bike .
Also if someone knows where I can get a soft copy of the ZMA R's owner's manual please let me know . I don't know even the basic things an owner should know about the bike

- except for may be it's tech spec .

@psr sir:
Does the crash guard hit the mud guard in bumps? You are having it fixed on your bike right if Im not wrong..

I want some lamp which pierces the rain/fog effectively. I was not happy with the bixenon performance in last munnar ride where I faced extreme downpour in pit dark night in a scary forest with bumpy hairpins and 100wt lights from oncoming trucks.
I am looking for some driving lights. Am not satisfied with the stock headlight on the highways.

Even thought of getting some small foglamps and putting them on mirror clamps, didn't get any branded one from JC road last week

.
Did not get in JC road? Strange!

In the ZMA it is superfluous and will be redundant..it will reduce bike's performance ...There is a parts manual which gives an Exploded view of the entire Karishma please download and see.

I have a crash bar not crash guard, and in deep pot holes or bumps at high speeds will make the mudguard hit the crash bar.

Do not rev engine above 5 K RPM in each gear except 5th gear as it will unnecessarily stress the engine and you will have early failure of drive components.As I had clarified before the final gear is 0.8 and hence taking it to full 9 K + RPM is difficult in stock condition.

Ah bad! Now I will have to look elsewhere if I am fixing an aux lamp..

@Amit: Any other suggestions? The mirror clamp as you suggested seems to be a good place..

. Even if he had got the problems rectified at ASS , he wouldn't be as happy as he is now . This is what this forum is for - to help each other gain knowledge .
Since I've joined Xbhp , I've learned quite a bit ( well , may be only a tiny bit

) about ZMA R .When I bought the bike , it was for me just a 4 stroke bike which was comfortable . The earth being flat would've been more true

. A great deal of the knowledge I gained came from you . Newbies will be attracted when they see the posts which shows problems being rectified . And explanatory posts ( latest I think is vineeth's H/L relay connection explanation) sure gives a nudge to the wannabe DIY-ists .
Keep the spirits up !!

Yes ACS true words...The happiness of seeing new parts going in and work carried out correctly is priceless....it eventually leads to DIY ,and greater learning.Like everyone else I am still learning and sharing here..I just learnt about the Ceramic bulb connectors thanks to Vineeth,and about the RPM limiter through Amit's and others posts .
In fact I bought a Karishma after going through 400+ pages and knowing precisely about the bike..thanks to everyone here....and I am only happy to share with members who had given so much to me..

I think safety is more important.

I am going to try and fix the CBZ Xtreme crash guard later in my bike.

sir even i wanna fix a crash guard but most of us fixed it by removing the engine guard which i don't wanna sacrifice. after a bit of googling found a zma with crash guard mounted with the engine guard here am attaching a small pic, if possible someone please identify the guard used.

@amith- yup its possible.

Currently I'm running my bike on a crash bar. It is already taking a toll while running on potholes or small bumps caught unaware. I would definitely think, it should be getting the hit even though he managed to have the engine cowl too in place.

@PSR:- Will visit sometime this week. Need to return what I took for the trip!

Vineeth it is custom made, and is only half the height of CBZ X crash guard...The lower fairing of ZMA-R actually reduces the air flow,and hence i had removed it..It helps in better cooling and a side benefit is, cross or head on wind does not affect the bike's straight line at high speeds.
We have to fit CBZ's crash guard or else do a DIY ourselves.

CBZ's is only 428/- while it will be more expensive if we make it ourselves.

ohh but this custom made ones, will they provide the same level of protection??
other day, i was planning to fix a completely customized guard, the plan was to bend a straight iron tube and fix on the engine guard bolts, i was pretty confident about this but ma dad interrupted me saying that it wont be effective as the stock one. he also said that the oem guards, though look simple, they are there after severe safety tests and all that...well i don't know

Sir, It was on 8 full 360 degree turns, May it was setup like that as I was using K&N.The svc guys changed the filter but didn't touch the AFR screw as I told them strictly not to do so

Yeah Man, there is no other place in ZMA to fix aux lamps. We need to make custom clamps otherwise, I will look out for that option once I get some free time.

The bar hitting the front mudguard is really annoying man. My front mudguard is already cracked in several places.One of my frnd has changed his front 4 times in 60k kms.

Which model K&N do you have?
135 main jet will work provided you tune the AFR properly .
