    But from where will you source a 5 speed gearbox??
    Excellent Question!!
    I need to find out that. Have to check with Yamaha Dealers.

    How much did it cost you? I mean the gear box.

      thse are made in China but are forged ones , got them from karol bagh for 3k
      They are extremely light weight equal to steels rims so i got them !!

      I got the complete forks from Galadiator , using RX T itself so IMO one can just buy outer tubes and use it on RX directly ( am not sure ) , as my forks were bent so i got the comple thing
      so you just removed the chain guard and that tyre was a direct fit ?
      Hope is a good thing ,
      may be the best of things and
      no good thing ever dies .

          you can easily find the gear set dont worry,

          The tyre max size that can go in is 100/90 any thing above thatwill be a hindrence.

          Chirag but i still like your first bike...

            yeah but for that chain cover has to be manipulated

                thanks

                then 90/90 looks a good deal

                  to be honest this bike has a better engine than previous and so many extra things...

                  the only this left is the paint job then you will like this one as well

                          so what maximum size can we fit without altering anything
                          I had a 120/80 - 18 MRF Zapped Q fixed on a slightly wider rim as compared to a stock.......had to cut the plastic mud gaurd under the seat to avoid touching tyres while bottoming out. A connecting rod which holds the rear brake drum had to be slightly bent to accomodate the tyre. Cudnt fix the chain gaurd as the chain was just about touching the tyre. It looked gorgeous. But now have got 3-18 fixed in the rear as it lowers the bike a bit and increases stability at high speed braking especially under hard front braking !!!

                            Thats why the 100/90/18 is the best deal for this one

                              those alloys are chinese imports

                              but very light ones

                              these are made for gladiator setup , as am using gladi discs so i didn't have any problem mounting them except for speedo
