      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.

        unfortunately i didnt find any even after searching throughly in bangalore. my cbz-x also has 18" rims..

        Tubeless michellin would cost a bomb to import for 18" (more than 5k at least) and none of the brands available here have brought out 18" tubeless tyres, not even in the stock specifications of 2.78 section front and 100/90 section rear.

        i settled for IRC tubed tyres as mentioned previously.
        if you can find tubeless for your unicorn let me know

                  I need replacement of both of my stock tyres to tubeless. I have karizma which clocked 30K

                  My requirements are

                  1. Front 2.75x18(tubeless) or close to that because i don't want a heavy front.
                  2. Rear 100/90x18(tubeless). I love the stock one but just want to upgrade to tubeless
                  3. Good grip on tarmac and on water(or close to the stock zma)

                        Can somebody tell me the make and the price of the tyres that come with the FZ16?

                        Any chances of they getting fitted on a P180 UG3?

                          Make: MRF Zappers

                          price: unknown as they are not available yet in Bangalore

                          Chances of fitment: Yes, it will fit in your UG3. You will have to widen your scissors but that will mean tampering with the swing-arm so it is not recommended. It will not fit otherwise. This is because I had put a iRC 130 size and it just faintly missed the inside. So 140 will definitely not fit in normal scissors.

                              I was surprised to find this now after I just fit the GeoCruiser on my Pulsar rear about a week ago. Am looking for something compatible for the front. Run 30000kms on stock tyres and it's high time.

                              Recommendations please. Considering the fact its a '06 model pulsar, I'm not looking for Michelin/Pirelli.. etc.etc.

                              II) Geo Cruiser.. (800/- INR in delhi): The THE worst tyre... good for nothing.. the cheapest tyre..many people use it..but trust me its THE worst...

                              III) Ceat: SECURA Zoom(1300/- INR in delhi): the only Dual purpose tyre..that motorcyles can bear wit...

                                Even my ZMA is in desperate need of a new set of tyres as i have already done 39900 kms on stock ones.
                                I wanna upgrade the rear one to 120, i checked the IRC but didnt like the Thread pattern, and after going thru the thread zapper Q seems to be an obvious choice.

                                P.S: L.P you are doing tremendously good, and i must tell you that you should try for a career in automobile industry.
