    Is this for your ZMA? I thought you sold the bike sometime back.

    Currently running on Shell AX7 10w40 felt better in terms of cold start and revving. Done nearly 3200kms now. So, bought Valvoline 10w40 Synthetic Blend for 290/- today for oil change.

        Bro, why not taking for further service??? AFAIK we both have extended warranty, so after 6th we have to do paid service, to maintain warranty for 5 years, am I right???

        Edit.
        About oil, I've been running for 5k+ on the 10W30 Hero Honda oil, could'nt change cause was uber busy with family stuff, so not using bike anymore till I change, after using Yamalube I thought about sticking to it, but will try Valvoline for a change.

            ^^^
            It should have a dark gray colour, if the creamy colour is kinda white then that means you're running lean. But no worries new ZMA's come lean from factory.

              Its a straight fit but one need to change the inside bracket too .

                seriuosly ? should i?. I pay 300 rs for a paid service and get nothing other than a unclean wash and a few minor adjustments which is doable at home and adding to that the body damages they make?

                    bro even if you have extended warranty for 5 year the regular warranty term applys only for the period which every guy gets and for the extended period warranty will only be valid for manufacturing defect of engine , im saying this after reading the terms for extended of my old vehicle
                    im saying this because almost all of us will be trying to finish wit the free service as soon as possible and to want to get them serviced from other local mechanic

                      thank you for the picture. what i have imagined it is there in your bike what is the total cost of the setup?

                          Hehe, ok ok. I understand, skipped my final service(accidentally), next week will do a waxjob and an oil change, guess theres no point in me insisting they do the free service since my warranty's already gone.

                          Thanks to warranty am running on a fresh block. Guess am a warranty junkie, i modd everything within the warranty period. Some may find it cheap, but for me its a learning process as well as making moneys worth, after all the price mix also consists of the warranty cost of the product. Just my thought though.

                              I was told the the brake pads of the n250 fit without any modifications in the nissin caliper. Is this true? Does someone have the part number for the same?

                              thanks
                              What do I intend to do? Stuff ZMR drivetrain into an Ambition chassis and watch others run scared!
