1. Compression.
2. Air (clean and a lot).
3. Fuel (also clean and a lot).
4. Spark.

Wishing you many kilometers of smiles.

thanks guys...


yes thats what my team mates think as well as the "Very" last refuling station was a remote town where the petrol was only available in large barrels with hand pump and the price was 20% higher then normal ..

the hand pump hose is dipped deep down in the barrel.. and it rained heavily a day back.. in the evening before leaving i topped up from there as I new next two days there would be no feul...

and I started noticing "no bzzzz" the very next morning...


By the way I am keeping still a close eye on fuel pump "cutout"/"relay" which is under the pillion seat... I noticed it gets warm (kind of hot) in minute of a more... does not progress to complete melt down or over heat but it stays "quite" hot.... is that usual ?

Any one ever noticed that ? I still have few weeks of summer thinking to go south... but I want to make sure to come back on two wheels thats why asking... if its some thing to worry about or not..

I am talking about this thing =
