      ^^natural disasters!!
      I remember this thing which happened to my bike.. when i was in college i had a rx100.. went home for 10days.. came back.. cow chewed almost half of my seat and dog went to the tyre.. very strange thing!
      A good long ride can clear your mind, restore your faith, and use up a lot of fuel.

      Always be ready (get geared) to fall and then think of sitting on the motorcycle.

        suitable it will be. cost dunno. available in Mumbai...pls check a few posts earlier.. someone was speaking about them.

        What I know from a friend who used them (Booo) is that the grip is too much and life is too short. I guess he worn out the tyres in 7K KMs and when they tried a burnout - the grip was such that the clutch plates broke - in a ZMA

              • What is the largest config that will fit in my P150 V2 rear tyre (100/90-17") without any modifications/chain-guard removal? I enquires about siracs at Chembur, and the owner quoted a price of 3100 for 120/80-17". He said that this will fit without any mods, but i have my doubts. Is the price and config okay?

                • dont yo think that the sirac is overkill for the p 150, instead try the r15 rear tyre,

                    ya i thot so too....so asked for an M45, but he said only siracs are presently available. hopefully he said the full range shall be socked by March end. So shall wait. As for R15 tyres, I have searched high n low for them. nobody seems to be selling them. So i have contacted MRF directly now. Hopefully shud be hearing from them by this weekend

                        V) MRF Zapper Q..(12-1500/- INR in delhi): THE BEST FRO ZMA .. 120/80 section.. tubeless.. direct fit... no probs.. ultimate grip..even on water.. after Nylozapper FS and S,it is the tyre that gives the best water resource planning and awesome grip on water on tarmac..
                        Are you sure Zapper Q in 120/80 x 18" is available in tubeless. And any other size (like 100/90 or 110/90) is available as tubeless. Coz the MRF website does not say any of the Zapper Q is tubeless.

                        IRC: A mid stuff compound lasts for somewhere around 25,000 kms..
                        I dont remeber the Name of the Tread i Saw,how ever.. it was pretty similar to the one like MRF:NyloZapper-FS
                        90/90 18" (Front): 900/- TubeLess and with Tube also available
                        100/90 18" (Rear): 1200/- Tubeless and with Tube also Avail.
                        110/90 18" (Rear): 1400/- Tubeless and with Tube also Avail.
                        120/80 18"(Rear): 1700/- Tubeless and with Tube also Avail.
                        Are these tyres available now also.... and any idea if they are available in Pune (if yes.. where)? Also are IRC tyres available in some showrooms or some shops or at KRP??

                                Poona tyre only stocks Car tyres and Darshan tyres doesnt have any tubeless tyres for bikes presently..!!
