    Can we use this as inverted one. Bcz in twister it's not fit but if we use it as inverted na it'll be fit.

      it is inverted one i guess.
      and the question remains why do i race?
      every finishing line is the begining of a new race.

      #i have learnt to manipulate my own adrenaline and the perception of biking is different.
      #overkill is underrated.
      #how random roads may appear there is always a destination.sigpic
      #i don't subscribe to co-incidence,either it is the rider or the other moron on the road

      (:)people keeps on saying add spark to life, bajaj got hold of that idea and added an extra spark to bike.

          • I need a good rear tyre for my Twister! @Rajaselvam: The puncture I had started leaking air again today and two mechanics told me to get a tube fitted in the tyre. So I thought better to get the rear tyre changed all together. Anybody who has changed to a bigger tyre? I'm planning the MRF zapper line of tyre. A 90 section maybe, tube tyre.
            I would rather be riding my bike thinking of God, than sitting in the temple thinking of my bike.

              Unicorn, the work is half way done, apparently the carb has to be re-positioned and the air filter location has to be changed for the shock to fit in.
              Hopefully it'll be done by tomo morn, my mech is doing a very neat and commendable job.

                Try michellin. it's better than the zapper.

                • I went for the mrf zapper c 100 section tyre because the 90 sections were very hard to come-by. The performance hasn't dropped as much as I expected it to drop. The good part is the grip that I'm getting from the tyre is a lot better than the stock twister tyre. But the real test would be of the milage

                  • Help Needed !!!

                    Hi All..
                    I'm planning to get this bike for my Dad on his 25th Anniversary.
                    I like this bike but have read at many places about the tyre skidding problem.
                    It would be great if some members help me out in making this choice.
                    Thanks in advance.

                      They have put in a new tyre now. The recent twisters have a better tyre. You can also go for the pulsar 135 but you won't get as much mileage.

                        Honda provides only two brands of tyres, MRF and TVS,

                        The MRF one doesnt hav a midrib and that causes trouble(only in extreme braking conditions)I mean when ur panick breaking on a wet and gravel surface.

                        Trust me coz i did 35k kms on that tyre before switching to michellin.

                        Have no idea about the TVS one though.

                          My colleague bought a twister last week and they are still giving the same old options! - This is in Bangalore.

                            Thanks buddy. My dad hates Pulsars as I own one.

                            Thanks buddy. My dad wil generally not drive above 40-50 so that should not be a problem.
