      My bike likes me, once my friend rode my bike back and it reached reserve.
      And also considering the route which I take, Im the one with the best mileage yet!!! BUAHHAHA!!!.

      And about pushing the bike. Yup I've been there done that!!!
      Cause at the time of buying the bike I expected the reserve to last more, cause in my Hyosung, the needle goes far below the reserve bar for the bike to come to a halt. And believe me it was one helluva experience pushing a 150kg monster all the way to the petrol bunk that too wearing my motocross helmet. (Jokes apart, I feel my biceps are larger than before, after owning ZMA)

            • It is easy to check the genuinity of HH spares , there is a label on it , see the GENUINE word in blue colour On rubbing it disappears, and re-appears on leaving , in 15 seconds. Also some other checks are there as on their web

                • guys, i just want to conform few things from u all

                  I had an accident and unfortunately my right side fairing got damaged, actually i got slipped and the my bike was dragged on road for about few meters so my outer part of fairing ( right side ) got damaged. its not look bad but as i bought my bike in april only so thinking of changing it. and plus the cover of the silencer the silver steel part also had kid marks .. so changing that too.

                  I asked the HH service center guy he told me that the right side fairing ll cost u around rs 1200 and then the claim amount ll reach to your home throught cheque ( rs 600 )

                  so my question is the amount is correct ???

                      This is the compound.

                      Thats very easy to attain,even with ripping and some times above 100km/h,my bike is getting 41+ on highways.

                      Yes,50% for fiber,so 600rs and the silencer shield will cost you nearly 550rs.

                          Thats not oil bro, I guess its just the reflection. Cause when I tried taking pics with my phone camera the same happened.

                          @ Vaishak - You'r body doesnt match you'r voice. I expected you to be abit taller and darker and abit more scarier, to be honest. Anyways you look COOL .

                          And how come you have specs??? How are you going to wear them with your helmet on???

                              • I got my worst FE when I bought the bike pre-owned and it was 26 in city..The Air filter was totally clogged,and after replacing it with ZEN MPFi air filter and also the spark plug, the worst is 30 kms ,and best 33 Kms in city.In, out of city rides on short tours doing 110 to 120 Kmph I get worst of 40 and best of 43 Kms.
                                Now i ride close to 70 to 80 kmph short burst in city,and finding the bike not so fast....Guess I am getting so used to the higher speeds, that even doing 110 seems to be slow...may be 140 will satisfy me ...temporarily .
                                If karizma is bumped up in Compression ratio it will give better mileage and power delivery..The basic design is for engine longevity and reliability.
                                Aneesh your mech had used excessive amount of Three Bond to seal the gasket areas, and had not wiped it clean after assembly...which is why you see the dark smear of the liquid Gasket all around..
                                Vishakh if you are getting worst of 35Kms per liter with that plug color.....common gentleman admit it...you have pedals attached in your ZMA..
                                You Plug shows you are running rich AFR...Check the Air Filter for clogging and change it, or if it is ok, correct your AFR..
