    Cannot say anything about Hayabusa as even a single one is not there in my village or district. It is a rare bike in my state itself and I am not familiar with it.

    Cannot agree with you. Mine is 24,750 kms old with mere lubing. Expecting another 10-15K kms from it.

      @Karizma R - If this is not a real name, let us know, sometimes we might interchangaeble mistake the bike. Since you say new to biking, I would suggest you to go through this ZMA ownership thread right from 1st page. It might take some time for you, but worth spending! There might be many topic discussed that you wanted to know about.
      okay.. thanks

              Need urgent info. I went for coffee out of ofc in the rains. Went sans the helmet. (sorry, but it was deliberate to listen to the sounds) I feel that the sound doesn't come entirely from the chain sprocket set. Rather, it feels like some busted ball bearing set! Can someone explain how the engine and the chain sprockets are connected? Any (and how many) ball bearings in between?
              Got a $5 head? Get a $5 helmet.

                Refer parts catalogue .

                Changed to 10w 40SS from shell. Didnt like it for the first 100kms or so but afterwards i feel its good. Refined engine smooth gearbox and less warmup time.

                      • Karizma-R 2011
                        Odo: 13500 kms (only on highways)
                        Engine Oil: Valvoline SS 10w40
                        Tyres: Front-MRF stock, Rear- M45 4.00

                        Observation:- Bike does 120kmph, however, there's a noise emitting from bore for sometime which is actually becoming a concern to me. This is heard when the engine is idle. Otherwise have no issues with bike.

                        What bike needs?

                        1. Right panel star screw - missing from previous service.
                        2. Right panel 10mm screw which has a cylinder/barrel on which the screw is done.
                        3. Silencer top chrome plate missing a screw
                        4. Throttle cable B
                        5. Engine oil before next mega trip.
                        6. Some rubber washers for fairings

                        Please see the plug reading below. It shows bit of chocolate brown on the much while porcelain. You can also see how the plug top is bent down by our beloved HH Service. Later undid some to have gap. CAUTION:- Kindly check the bike's plug once taken out from service just make sure it is not tampered like mine.

                          Is the second pic after you have made some modifications ? As the gap is not yet proper i think. And the spark plug was probably dropped head on in SVC.

                          OT : Btw nice pic of spark plug, was it a dslr just curious.

                                I like the description. The above is the closest one.
