yeah, 1 more thing that this post reminded me. Is the chain cover purely a cosmetic part, or does removing it compromise safety in any way, like increase the risk of chain coming off or something... coz man u dont want that to happen!!!When u see a SPECK on the horizon and SMELL BURNIN\' RUBBER...Know this:- I JUST PASSED BY... -

no, there wont be any effect on engine performance or engine life...the tyre wont load the engine so much so as to damage it...quote:Originally posted by tanmayj
Will this mileage drop damage the engine in the long run???Comment

The Michelin M45 is an excellent tyre in terms of size, grip and even looks. CErtainly better than the Zapper. On the ZMA, u'll need to remove the chain guard. And believe me the fat looks of the tyre along with the naked chain looks too good...quote:Originally posted by honda_rr

Ace bhai, I would suggest u go for the Michelin tyres.
The Michelin M45 tyre is made of soft compound which makes it a lot lighter and at the same time gives u a contact patch almost equal to that of the 120
Because of the lesser weight there is not much drop on the avg. too, actually on my zma I got an increase in the avg. by around 2 kmpl.
but if only a tubeless is on your mind, I suggest go for the Maxxis Barracuda than the Duro.Comment

Sorry to be such a nag, coz I've asked this question many times before. But plz answer this time: I was told that removing the chain guard compromises safety by increasing the chances of chain coming loose etc. Also may cause problems coz of loss of protection from dust...IS THIS TRUE???When u see a SPECK on the horizon and SMELL BURNIN\' RUBBER...Know this:- I JUST PASSED BY...Comment

Tanmay...u r half right half wrong...
Yes dust and rust will be ur chain's biggest enemies when u remove the chain guard...but u can take care of the chain by lubricating with the chain oil every fornight and spraying anti-rust spray on it once a week...
About the loose chain thing, well actually u can easily check everyday whether ur chain has become loose and if yes u can get it tightened. As it is no one checks for the chain tightness everyday by opening the chain guard window. So with the chain guard off, u can actually see ur chain's tightness everday...Comment

Hey whackyfox,
I think u are joking; putting enticer's rear tyre on CBZ is impossible coz Enticer's rear tyre is of 16 inches while CBZ needs 18 inches.. nice joke.. [xx(]
If u put rear type of CBZ in front wheel that kills ur mileage, handling and everything.
