            @ CBZ

            I appreciate your efforts & congos on doing the endurance ride.. I know today you might have not done in stipulated time but you have got much needed experience to achieve it next time when ever you try it.

            Now I have couple of questions,

            1. Was your bike all stock for the ride ? Or did you try some sprocketing ?
            2. Did you use synthetic or mineral oil ?

            Cheers

                      Hey bro, First of all hearty congratulations for a safe attempt.. Its really amazing to read SS logs on bikes of such lesser capacities. CBZ classic really is 1 of the most wonderful additions by HH in their portfolio.. Why didn't you stretch her beyond 90 kmph but, i'm sure your CBZ could've done 100 or so at max. Nevertheless, a brilliant attempt bro, i'm sure you would greet us all with a successful SS log pretty soon..
                      Cheers

                          thanku mitz !!! The bike was well prepared, but almost 10 years old in stock condition ... No sprocketing ... No technical mods at all !! I was not carrying a full-blown tool kit, I did not want to waste time in a break-down or heating problem, so did not want to push my steed harder .... If you read, the fog and the road repair cost me a lot of time . She is a babe, she din't let me down as far as I am concerned . The bike was not ridden beyond 40kmph for the last 9 years or so by the previous owner. And it never smelled the highway tarmac too before I got her freedom from the stupid first owner, a jerk, 45 year old guy. So, I was going easy on her . I hope she will reach greater milestones in years to come !! Cheers !!

                              1.You should have tried some sprocketing, may be a 15t front sprocket would have given you relaxed cruising, If I am not mistaken the 15/38 Ambition sprocket would yield 100kmph cruising @ as low as 6.5k rpm ( somebody had posted it here long time back about the same).

                              2. CBZ Is Ultra short stroke engine, so a thicker grade say 15W50 oil would have made bike smooth & helped in high speed crusing for a long time, Of course a Semi synhetic or Fully SYnthetic was indeed a must If you ask me in this kind of endurance rides
