Also, since your Z has run more than any other I know of, how has the ownership experience been, with respect to the bike

The 95 octane has me a little apprehensive

Thanks!

Thanks.
The experience has been great.
Whenever possible I fill up at good pumps but I have also had to fill up at dodgy pumps when touring. No issues so far.

Do you fill up high octane fuel? I know Speed 97 is hard to come by.

How much has the bike done so far?

I have never used Speed 97 so far as it is not available in Pune. (Yes, I checked at the petrol pump near RTO last year).
Current ODO reading is about ~14000

Hey Celestial, have you completed your 3rd service? Could you post a breakup if it ? My 3rd service is due but then KPB has shut down - so will have to see what they setup a new dealer. But would be good to know what all is done in the 3rd service.

Or ride to Pune. Not too far off and the route is beautiful as well.
