    It is written on swingarm.
    You are running the bike a bit hot. It needs moving air to keep the temp below 90-95. Once I saw 106 degrees in traffic and then stopped by the roadside for it to cool down. Was pretty sure it could have shut down due to overheating if I had continued.

      Of course I didn't buy the bike for mileage but my avg shows 13 in the first 80 km or so I've done

        675 km on odo , run only on RON 97 with occasional RON 93. I would like to compare the engine sound with regular fuelled bike with some friend of mine

          the discussion on fuels has been done in the past as well... i have used Shell Super for 500KM without changing to any other fuel and then to normal.. no change in sound or performance or the fuel efficieny.. as long as you are filling from a decent gas station, you should be good...

          did 2600KM upto-date... no issues so far.. took the bike to the SC to do some regular checks and the bike is all good...

          anyone did any changes to the lights.. planning to change the pilot and headlight to white so wanted any recommendations ...

            Went for a ride recently. To Lonavala. The Zeds performed amazingly! Saw 197 kmph on my speedo. Pretty sure I crossed 200! Windscreen helps a lot!

              I hope the small Rizoma flyscreen works for me . I will be happy if 140 feels comfortable without much wind resistance

                It will work for sure. But trust me, you will want to cross 140 once you get used to it
