    [URL="https://www.zigwheels.com/forum/profile/6772"]Akshay_Sharma[/URL] Oh yeah, I get what you're trying to explain. Fellow forum user Corsaveloce also found it difficult to grip the tank in the Apache RTR 200 because his knee was touching the broader tank shrouds and not the narrower, lower portion of the tank. Do let us know how your store visit goes. Cheers.

    [USER="6772"]Akshay_Sharma[/USER] What Roshun said makes sense. Make sure you connect the lighting with the bike's ignition so that there's no way of switching on the light when the engine is not running. But I think one good quality 40 watt bar will suffice as the stock battery is only around 3.5 Ah. As for the tank grips, I understand your concern and I think it's because of the cost constraint. Honestly, I've seen people use tank grips only for racing. But if it really makes you uncomfortable, I think you should go for it. You can also try Karol Bagh for a cheaper alternative but I'm not sure about the grip levels they provide. Another workaround would be to get a set of rubber knee-guards, perhaps? That may help you gain more grip, I guess.

    [URL="https://www.zigwheels.com/forum/profile/6772"]Akshay_Sharma[/URL] I would suggest fitting a 6-inch LED light bar to the R15 or two LED cubes. You can get these from Aurora or Rigid or Oledone. These are the best quality LED light bars available. Get two 40 watt cubes or a single 40 watt / 50 watt LED bar. That should sort out your lighting issues. LEDs don't consume much power either, so it won't be a strain on the bike's battery.
