    Tire Puncture Repairs

    Hey Guys, I have a problem similar to the one discussed with respect to BusainSD’s bike. Got a small nail in my tire. And from reading the opinions in that regard, having a plug & patch dosent seem to be the best option at any speed over 80 miles/hr. Now very clearly in that case, it isn’t...

    Is a weak battery related to a sluggish throttle.

( the problem here is that there is no authorised dealer for such bikes) The speed limit in Bombay city could vary from 60 km/hr to 80 km/hr. But once you are...
