    Just need some gyaan on tubeless tyre as it was a first puncture in 17000kms. although it is repaired now and it was merely a 5 min job but i can see that stick which was fixed in my puncture is capturing some space outside the tyre too. Is it normal??
    mechanic said it will get strong due to heat when your tyre rotates.
    @Rohit.. There is no problem with it..if it's out too much from the tyre..use a blade to cut it..and when the next time u open the tyre cut it from inside too..

      So what does that exactly mean

      does this mean that you are just not going to help us with the dealer name or what?

        • Was a bit curious.. Any 180 V1 owners here who've put M45 in the rear? I just put mine, and found that the tyre rubs against the swingarm. Not a major issue, easily fixed but was just curious to see if anyone else has this issue as well.

            • FV's tread pattern best suited for drum brake bikes.straight line pattern is only for drum brakes.

              • M45's are real good when it comes to grip and wear. the only thing about them that i dont like is the fact that they are not Tubeless.

                AT KRP you can get PILOT power for your 17 inchers and thats for the indian bikes the pair costs around 3900 if i am not wrong but they will last around 8K-10K but they looked real good. and also they have a good range of M45's almost all the sizes

                  Bhai as told and explained to you earlier when we met... the tyre that you had put there not meant to be used on a Disc Brake Rim.. and the side pattern is given just to support a bit of bending..
                  howeverrr..the straight line.. that is there is just for the drum brakes.. it would not give a grip as the air that needs to be trapped and that escapes thru the cuts in the tyres..

                      • Guys need help with options for the 220's tyre replacement.....

                        As of now front the options are:
                        1. MRF Zapper FS 90/90
                        2. Vee Rubber 100/80 <not too keen, but have rave reviews from a user>

                        Rear:
                        1. MRF Zapper C 120/80
                        2. MRF Zapper Vyde 120/80 <till now my first choice>
                        3. Michelin Sirac 120/90

                        Anything options for me? For the front I want to retain 90/90 sizing and rear anything of (120\110)/(90\80) will do...but all tubeless.....

                          Dude, dont blast me for this... just wondering if u ever gave a thought on Fz rear tyre or even the mags? 220 has enough torque to pull the 140mm rear, will look cool too

                            Blast...Lol!

                            Well the 140 section is not what I'm worried about, its the 60 profile, the bike will become too very short geared, plus the ride quality will drop to abysmal levels!!! Moreover the rim width's of the FZ and 220 are different, and I cannot think of loosing my rear disk to fit the FZ wheel, even if its a possiblity!

                                i'm using zapper vyde 120/80 since 5000kms and find it better than the default one...grip is quite good as compared to zapper C but lookwise they look thinner due to their roundish profile
                                its all about CC...
