  • :P Sad condition of that shop.
    I would rather be riding my bike thinking of God, than sitting in the temple thinking of my bike.

      FYI they do not have anyone to fit the tyres too

      So its like window shopping if you have to purchase any tyres from him !
      A very good and safe biker not only because he can pop up either of the wheels,scrape his knees on a corner or go fast and make it look stylish but because he very well knows his limits and capabilities and has the patience to learn about others and ride safe ! :)

        Biking is about you and the bike and the highway and the freedom you get when all three work together. Its not about Bullying others on the road and behaving like its your Dads property.. So drive safe and be nice to your fellow bikers no matter what their ride is.

            I know! I recently got a bigger tyre fitted and I was like "laga ke do, thek hai" , and they said "Sir hum tyre nahi laga ke dete hai!!!"

            • Hello what is the best way to fix a puncture?
              1. Internal patch fix
              2. External plug fix
              3. Tyre sealent liquid that comes in 1liter bottles

                Dude, just saw the post next to yours, was going through all the items listed in ebay and found this
                Car / Bike Auto Tubeless Tyre Puncture Plug Repair Kit | eBay

                Tell me whether this is helpful. I am very new to tubeless tyres (1 month and have no punctures yet) and want to know what's the usual way they repair a puncture?

                Sometimes it takes a whole tankful of fuel before you can think straight.

                It was not that far on the map.

                • new broad Tyres for Pulsar150 DTSi

                  Hi

                  My friend needs tyres from his Pulsar 150 DTSi to be changed as he is not satisfied with the performance of MRF Nylogrip Zapper.

                  He is planning to increase width of the tyes by inch or so. Especially rear one. I suggested him to go for any low base tubeless tyres.

                  We planned to Opt
                  1. light weight
                  2. lowbase
                  3. tubeless.

                  Please share your experience and provide with your valuable suggestions regarding the same.

                    Can anyone help me to find the rear tyre for my Aquila, its of size 150/70R15. I tried some shops in bangalore without any luck. Its showing in MRF Zapper but none of the dealer has the stock.

                          • As M45 is no longer available in retail, what other options are available in 90/90-18 ans 100/90-18. I don't see much product offering in 18inch tyre segment. I not keen to get Indian made Michs.

                                Try the MRF Zapper 100/80 x 17" this tyre was fitted to Yamaha R15, the reviews on the tyre have been extremely positive .

                                I have been using Michelin Pilot sporty 3"x 17 " , there is a tyre in suited for Discover 135 , which is currently shod with 100/90 x17" , The Michelin Pilot sport though excellent tyre , do not have the sporty look you want as the radius of curvature of the cross section is quite acute and this make the width look smaller compared to other 100 MM tyres.
                                My choice would be the MRF 100/80 , as it has a lower aspect ration and a proven handler .This tryes was developed exclusively for Yamaha .

                                Coming to the decision on going for Tubeless, depends if your rim will take a tubeless tyre If you have alloys there may not be any issue. Experts correct me if I am wrong.

                                Hope this helps.
