    i am not sure ... but I am definitely not happy with the Continentals of my CBR. I shouldnt be going for a change as well this early but I wonder if there is a problem with the way I am using the brakes or is it a genuine problem with them.
    On our last ride also, I managed to skid a bit, though on a straight and open stretch. Either I have to judge the braking effort that I am putting in while it comes to high speed braking (~125kmph) or I would have to start riding slow.
    Any suggestions or if others also felt that Continentals on CBR have a prob. . I tried to put this in CBR forum, but havent got any response.

    I need to figure this out for my betterment before Kuchh ride .

    Also, post Sundays, ride, my bike some times starts making an unpleasant sound of metal rubbing hard against each other.(i cant be sure if that its a chain as it makes that sound when the bike is stand still too sometimes, and moreover I should not be hearing any sound of metal parts exposed other than the chain).

    I am unable to fig this out as it happens at time. And then I shut off the bike, restarts and its gone. So no ideas whats that.

    My service is due in another 300 kms (done 5700kms, due at 6000kms) and I want to understand what the prob cold be before handing it over to the serviceman. So that I could explain this to him.

    After the ride, I used the MOTUL chain cleaner and lubricant and left the bike idle for an hr or so. I noticed that it happened after that. It should not be the reason but I am just adding it for the info.

    Any help/suggestions.
    thx guys.

    shashrash, Firstly, Please dont use short forms on the forum, and the continental tyres have issues as i remember, royd had installed the continental on fazer and had gone bad times with it. And regarding the clankig sound did you checked all you fittings and shocks from all angles ? Did you checked the chain tension too ?

      Shrinath .. will keep a check on the abbrevations ...

      yah, I have checked all the fittings that I could, for the fairing, rear view mirrors, foot pegs, mudguard and all. Tightened them up too. The chain has a slight lag, but I am not sure if that would be under the tolerance.
      Doesnt too stressed chain also a wrong thing to have or it should be like that way.
      How much slag are we looking into for the chains btw to be called as okay.

      cheerz.

          Is this for me 'cause I am Maneesh? 70-300 in a year or two, presently, 18-55 is enough. 2X 8 GB cards on the way. And experimentation with the MOV format fills the card faster than I fill my tummy with rum
