    Phillips it is.

    your bike is new.. you dont want to void warranty telling HH that you using some other oil. hence if you change oils under 1000 kms and stick to even HH oil you will keep the bike in good shape

    every 6 to 7 k get chain cleaned and sprockets and rest should be fine

    the zma and zmr rear tyre is same except the zmr is tubeless.... hence go in for michellin m45 or pirelli sportdemon 110

      Good point on the warranty. I don't think m45 tubeless is available. Probably will GI for the Pirelli(any idea on pricing?)

      EDIT: according to pirelli's site that tyre is marked as front tyre in the 100/90 size. I'm guessing it can still be used as a rear?

        Pirelli is only for rear.. there are no front pirelli tyres avail.. price approx 2500 to 3000 depends

        michellin m45 with tube is also an awesome tyre

          Yeah I have heard a lot about m45 in this forum but the fear of a puncture in some remote place with no puncture shops near by always scares me about tube tyres. Converting them to tubeless isn't the safest option either so the front will probably be the zmr stock zapper

              True that most riders have no trouble with the conversion but frankly the thought of a tyre malfunction at high asked scares me so I'm playing it safe there. Either at least the sorry demon looks like an awesome find, thanks man

                No problem go ahead with pirelli front and zmr front for your zma.. you will not go wrong..

                  Hi,

                  I have been using the ZMR Tubeless MRF front tyre in my ZMA for the last year and a half. No problems and a decently grippy tyre.
                  I have recently switched to Pirelli Sport Demons (120/80) in the rear. Very good tyre again. The Pirelli costed me around 3600.

                  You can use the similar setup. There are not many options for Front Tubeless tyre for ZMA.

                  Regards

                    The road bikes drain interval was quoted at 600Miles.
                    Both CRF230F and CRF230L have same drain interval ?

                      If I remember correctly, he said the racing version needs oil change after every race and the street version after every 600 miles ~1000 km.

                        Did a 400km round trip today morning. Rimula is performing very well even with the blazing heat here in tamil nadu. I hit 135kmph before I ran out of road(Highest on a bike for me). All in all the bike satisfies me every time. I mean riding.......Oh I mean touring. Don't get me wrong people .... Hail zma!!

                          I still can't get my head around using a diesel oil in a petrol bike but it sounds like the real deal

                              The body of the LED cluster seems to be same dia as the base...you may have difficulty in getting it inside the reflector housing.

                                Just ordered let see if they are going to fit or not. A stupid lady hit my bike by her car. Head light and both left and right panel are broken. Paid Rs4000 for all three thing, can't find old panel which come with 225 cc sticker. So coming week bike for paint job then I will put R sticker to replace the older one.
