True. Especially if its a new ride and you'r parents paid for it.

I didn't get this. Your daily fund is Rs 100 only and you ride 80kms? Or, in a week, you get 400kms in just Rs500 of petrol...

Nope, I dont get funds weekly. Due to issues with my moms job, I have to be at home and so am now shuttling from home to college daily in ZMA total distance from home to college is 40Kms... So to and fro 80Kms. My daily fund for travel is 100rs. So that means when we total it, 80x5 Days of week = 400Kms and 100x5Days of week = 500.

Replied in BOLD.

Ok,Thanks,Then i have to place order for that too.Mine running on the old rubber bush,so i think the tank is bit lower in position and that made the fairing end bended towards the tank.

Yup, that'd be better. Since these things get deformed after prolonged use, it'd be always better to replace the worn ones.

BTW did you get your fairing replaced?????

Lucky you. If by chance you get the fairing before getting the bushes, then I guess you better opt for spacer or something(between the fairing bolt.), for the time being. Cause am sure they wont replace if anything happens again.

Smaller Rear Sprocket

Hey guys. wondering if any of you are using a smaller sprocket on the rear.

I'm considering a <39 teeth sprocket for touring purpose.

would a pulsar 220 rear fit the bike, AFAIK its a 37 teeth
and pulsar 200 runs on 38 teeth,

or alternatively changed the front to 14T.?

What was you bike's problem?

@Aneesh bro: I was experiencing knocking in lower gears and in lower RPM in hot engine - mostly after running 50+ km. Had a talk with PSR sir and decided to overhaul the engine head.

A change in the front sprocket = 3 teeth in the back sprocket.
Have been doing a research on the same for a while now.

My intended setup was rear 36T, but due to lack of loosely available parts the plans still on hold.

Did you find any damages after the overhaul????

From what I read in various thread/posts. P220 rear sprockets can be used in Karizma. Seems the chain pitch is also same. Meaning you can continue using the stock front sprockets as well as stock chain. I am also considering changing my rear sprockets to P200. Although it keeps delaying as my current ones are still in very good conditions despite doing 23 k +. Why I am waiting is because I want to change the entire set of new sprockets/chain. And not just one piece, which btw is not recommended.

Oh yes, I have toyed with changing to P220 o-ring chain as well (mine has no chain guard). Apparently the chain is slighly shorter than Karizma so needed to add additional link/s and I don't like this part, hence may forgo the plan unless I am confident of finding a way to properly add the extra link/s.

The Pulsar P220 and P200 rear sprockets of 39 ,38 are all compatible with the ZMA rear sprockets. But this will make the top end sluggish and may actually reduce the top speed due to 5th Gear ratio being 0.8.Stock setup itself makes it difficult to do true 145 Kmph...or touch 9,500 RPM.

yes it would make the top end sluggish,
the front being 13t it accomodates the front sprocket chamber almost totally,

but actually i'm jus looking for a less stressed engine at higher speeds. I would change the sprocket after the tour is done.
Rite now,it's stock, doin 100 at 6k rpm.
I want to reduce it..
What Would you suggest.?
