            Gopi these things may go at any time so its better to have these accessories in reserve.... Because of this we should not break the ride so try to get them...
            I forgot to say FZ's are tend to get puncture easily so get a puncture kit it can be used for bikes running with tubeless tyres (Your's, Deepak's R15 and guess VJ's P220 runs tubeless tyres) ....

              Except for few, have most of the spares in common, in that case you'll travel light. Also, someone would need to carry foot pump if you anticipate and carry puncture kit, don't you?

              It's only a remote chance to expect all the bikes to face issues. So just relax, carry essential stuff and check if cables/brake shoes are alright. A general service should take care of maintenance.

              Due to some sudden change of climate and to my health could not get the plugs in time and courier across. I'll bring it along.

                Accepted SriRam Ji... Guess we have a foot pump in the group.. Told him to carry puncture kit because we faced the puncture problems with FZ twice while doing a ride to ooty...
                We are carrying RX spares in common..

                    It is better to keep the above suggested spares with you as it may wear at any time. It is always take precautions than running behind problems

                      There's nothing Mandatory & stuff Gopi. See my bike is something like right out of factory roll-out meaning all the parts are spanking new done just a few 2 digit kms now. But i Still carry consumables & spares around, again it's Still a good practice to carry your own spares, because no body knows what may fail at any time and you don't want the ride to be stalled because of your bike, do you? If the bike that you ride is of common lot, you need not worry as w'll share the parts locally. Being out of the clan, it's better to carry at least a throttle cable, accelerator cable, levers & Spark Plug.

                        • Got a bad news few minutes ago..The alloy(R15-front) is not available in the local dealers it seems and they don't have any idea when it may come also :'(. Its been more than 12 days since i have give it for Accident repair/service. I am seriously upset with all the behavior or the quality of what Yamaha has shown, till date with respect to my bike. Be it the quality of the product or the knowledge of the service technicians or the spares availability. Never expected its ownership would be so irritating! Or is it all happening only to me???

                            I will get the basic stuffs mentioned by Ram with zero delay.
                            Not to mention the reserve may come handy in future rides if not now

                            I will also get the tubeless tyre puncture seal. How many?
                            I hope Ram is having the tool to insert the seal. If not please let me know I will get it.

                            Have you enquired with all ASC viz. CAG, ORPI and Aditya??

                            I also happened to have very bad experience with ASC w.r.t spares, technician knowledge and the way they do the service. After that I never went to ASC unless its unavoidable. Sticking to myself for basic maintenance and for others with local mechanic.

                                Oh thank you so much, Lijo. A big relieff for me Sigh! This puncture kit was just running in my mind. I too was planning to purchase an electric inflator two months back from a guy in Blore. But then thought, it's always good to purchase them in person. So for now postponed.

                                Cripes! All the bad omens are just in favor of the guys for the G2G I guess. This entire month is screwed up for me in all basis, Pak if only someone can give me some consolation. I am just waiting for this G2G to revive my soul very, very badly.

                                I guess, Pak, neram seriyilla! You can do it mate, if you can do Meghamalai, you can seriously do this trip with a bent alloy! Hope the bike gets rideable in err... it will be rideable ji, no time left.

                                Guys it's just one day left more to go. Though I sense this trip is gonna be fun filled; I pray to the almighty and the guardian angels to be with us throughout the ride for safe ride and back home.

                                And SENIOR FROGS, please, once again kindly PM the meet point, EXACT time and date, just as one final reminder to all of us!

                                Once upon a time, a guy asked a girl 'Will you marry me?'
                                The girl said, 'NO!'


                                And the guy lived happily ever after and rode motorcycles and watched sport on a big screen TV, went fishing and surfing, and played golf a lot, and drank beer and scotch and had tons of money in the bank and left the toilet seat up and farted whenever he wanted.


                                THE END
