      Nice! Congos on the half ton and great to hear that you had no trouble with the engine. You must be taking real good care of her.

            I have used Motul FS oil for 30k kms and never faced any such issues.

            We have quite a few ZMA/ZMR have run Motul SS/FS and less that I know of any reported issue of leaks.

            One of my friend is using Motul SS in his P200 from last 40k kms without any leaking issues.

            What about the Cam chain and tensioner ?
            How many times you have changed your chain sprocket and disk pads?

                  Aneesh...the fiber joints break if you try to tighten them more.I ve applied araldite to my fiber parts and they got fixed within each other

                  Do one thing...buy rubber washers and put it under each screw.The joints wont break and the bike will be vibe free.One of my friend has done that, My parts broke before I could do the same

                          Try rubber or soft nylon washers used in Water tap spindle.

                          • @prashk: I think you were right. Though I couldn't go for a long trip(this sunday I will try) I took an 8km route to my destination than the usual 4 and I found that after warm up time of ~2 km the bike is fine. But those 2 km are embarassing even moped overtake me at that time. Also my friend who owns a P220 says he doesn't suffer any such inconsistencies.

                            @everyone: I was practicing my braking skills and control one night when I jumped over a sharp speed breaker at speed ~45km/h . After that I am feeling as if my bike has lost its rock solid composure that it had earlier. Since then It has been feeling a bit wobbly so to say. Is it just in my mind or something may have gone wrong. Should I go to ASC to get it checked and if so what should I ask them to inspect?

                              But won't they sort of stand out (protrude) a bit since they are thick ( maybe @ 3 mm) ?

                                In that case buy an old CAR tube and cut the required washer size from it...you can tailor make it,and it will withstand the vagaries of weather..
