I finally managed to remove the rear mud guard of the bike since one allen bolt rounded off from right side with the help of a friend.
Later, the wheel was removed and taken to replace the rear tyre with Ceat Zoom Rad again for the second time. The last rear tyre lasted about 13K-14K before going fully bald.
The new tyre has indeed made a huge change on the bike's character.
This is a circumference of the new tyre is considerably more than the old tyre. So, it's as if the gearing has been changed. The bike feels less jerky in low end RPM. My bike was having a hard time hitting 103kmph in 3rd gear and I initially thought it would be clutch plate slipping. But, now that the plates are fine, my guess is that it was the worn out tyre causing this.
While at it, I also replaced the rear brake pads since the old pads were down to the last 25%.
