    I do not. Unless I need to drop my mom at work. Or to the girlfriend to whom I promised that I would ride sensibly and slowly. Slowly being the keyword here.
    Would the speedo error be a + or a - error, considering the fact that the R15 profile is lesser?

      HI guys ,

      I'm still learning these numbers based on the tyre sizes could one of you please explain to me what these numbers signify ??

      Thank you.

            Lets take the front tyre which is 90/90.
            First 90 in 90/90 here means the tyre is 90mm in width (front view of the tyre).
            Second 90 is the percentage of the width, i.e. 90 x 0.9 = 81mm (side view of the tyre).
            So the front tyre is 90mm in width and 81mm in depth.

            for the rear which is 120/80
            Width is 120mm
            Depth is 120 x 0.8 = 96mm

            Hope this helps.

                • Like Insidous said earlier, the speedo error is not much of a bother for me, considering the fact that fuel gauge, and odo are already incorrect and having the speedo showing wrong speeds won't have me crying wolf, so i'm more than happy to go for a smaller profile tyre, and as far as the type goes i'm having my eye's more on the R15's rather than the Vyde's, i don't know some how those tyres look a lot more appealing than the stock one's (talk about reverse styling??)
                  I'm too intelligent to the unintended, and too dumb for the obvious.

                        I wouldn't know about reverse styling, but I guess it's the fact that we've REALLY seen what those tires can do. But then, we haven't yet seen what the VYDE can do. Not me atleast. I wouldn't bet that the VYDE is exactly as good as the R15 tires, but if it's good enough, then I'd rather go for it.
                        Does anyone know if the R15 rear tire is a direct fit on the P200's rim? It was a direct fit on my friend's 180.

                        Well, if you want to go for K&N filter, the model you should be looking for is the RC1060. It'll still only be a modified fit. I did hear about another model called R1100. I'm not sure if that's good for the 200, although it's a direct fit on the 220. Now, fitting the K&N means you'll have to upjet your carburetor or atleast get it tuned decently. If you don't, you'll only be running lean and your bike will have quite some trouble for cold starts and all. As for results, I don't know how it is after upjetting, but after I got my carb tuned, it's given me good results in perspective of acceleration. I've heard from several people that it hits the top end, but I haven't really experienced that on my bike, although acceleration after 108 on mine is irritatingly sluggish.
                        It will set you back by around Rs.1600 to Rs.1800 for the filter, and extra charges to fit it (by some mechanics). Go for it only from an authorized dealer.

                            The R1100 is a slightly larger conical filter compared to the RC1060. As to whether this would be better, I do not know, but so I've heard. It'll set you back by around 2000-2500. And no, K&N filters DO NOT hamper your mileage. Irrespective of the model you are using.

                                The filter has a cotton-type filter element which is less denser than the normal foam element, and therefore this aids in better air-intake, the problem is that after you fit an K&N your charge in the block will be like Insidious said lean because the air is more in the fuel:air ratio, to compensate this you would have to go for a bigger jet than stock to compensate the excess air intake, and therefore your ideal mixture will go up from the default mixture, thereby increasing your performance, but to get this near ideal mixture is very difficult as it is unique for each bike and it's rider's preferences, so the only way to achieve this is by trial and error
