        Your question is very childish. Why don't you check for for yourself ?

            We hear such query every fortnight from a newbie. I realize that none of the newbies goes the thread from start or even Google. We have discussed in detail in the past. ZMA is capable of handling the 60/55w without any issues. Definitely they are brighter and you don't want to go back to stock after this change. Side effects:- Not much, but ensure you don't turn on the lights when the engine is not running. Still have questions? Contact Ravi Verma (Ravi@17bhp) from Hyderabad.

                  Yes the light is much better than the stock... tested it today. Even clamped a multimeter while the lights were switched on and noticed that the voltage did not go below 13.7 (Engine on). adjusted the spread.And thanks for the advice, Will always do an xbhp search before posting.

                    Aneesh as you aware any pic of headlight might not do justice unless seen with our eyes.

                    No problem, you got a great opportunity to learn with this thread. Go through the thread from first, many interesting topics were discussed in the past. And it would help to gain better understanding about our bike.

                      • Cosworth isnt as reuseable as they claim it is(after a couple of washes its recommended to replace.), hence upgraded to UNI.

                        Dual stage.



                        Lubed with Castrol Power 2T, guess I over did it abit.





                        Completed around 500Kms with this. Runs too rich with 140Mains and bike has a super strong low end torque(AFR@6 Turns) cause bike can easily carry my weight and drag in traffic without throttle, with idle set at 1.25k when hot, am assuming that the stock main jet would be more than enough. Will plonk them in when I get the time, AFR stuck so will try a lower setting after sourcing some WD40.

                          Aslo gives better mileage reduce engine knocking at higher gears @ lower RPM .

                            Cool bro, I can do 30ish in 5th gear, without any knocking. But the 140mains making bike run too rich, tops out at 121Kmph(GPS).

                            Whats the size of your mainjet???

I am using Michelin Sirac 120/80R18 as my rear tire and i am running on my 2nd set of sprockets and chain. Been using this setup for the last 2yrs and no issues. Offlate its been acting weird. Help me out.

                                How much do you weigh??? And do you accelerate hard???
                                Im 110+kg's and after every long trip(hard ripping) the chain becomes so loose that it fouls with the main stand.
