1. I own a hero honda achiever 150cc model of 2007 or the older one whichdoesnt has alloy wheels.

my problems are as follows:-

1. My first problem is that my bike skids a lot when i try to brake it from a speed near about 100kmph then it skids i have a mrf nylogrip zapper of size 3.00-18 as rear tyre of my bike.Will changing this to a tyre to mrf nylogrip zapper y of size 100/90-18 do me justice and i have a question that will using this tyre decrease my bikes pickup and topspeed.

Depends on your BRAKING skills and Tyre condition too. Changing to a size greater than stock will increase top speed by a margin, but will kill the PICK-up.
2. My second problem is that i need a good engine oil from which i can gt good engine performance and protection.suggest me some brands with prices.
Semi synthetic oils:
Motul 5100 : 350-400rs
Valvoline 4T premium : 300rs
... many more

Synthetic oils:

Motul 300V: 600-800rs
Veedol
Petronas
many more...

3. My third problem is that my bike vibrates a lot after 80 kmph is there any way to decrease the vibration of my bike.

Changing to a good engine oil will reduce vibrations considerably. Also get the engine mount bolts tightened.

4. My fourth problem is that my bike is showing signs of engine oil leaking at the area where the clutch cable enters the cranckcase and the area where the gear change lever enters the cranckcase plase suggest some solutions for this.

Probably, Oil seals have given-up. Change them.

5. MY silencer when i accelarate my bike then there is some sound like gharr-gharr this sound didnt came earlier when i have shown it to mechanic then he told me that there are some small stones inside my muffler i told him to open it and turn it upside down but there was nothing coming out of it.

Some part inside silencer might have gone out of its place. Also the Mounting bolts of Silencer needs to be checkned

6. i wanted to upgrade my bike by adding allloy wheels and painting the whole lower console black ie the engine etc.can u suggest me that should i buy the alloy rims from hero honda service center or from market place in market they are available at rs 3000 and in service center they are of rs 5000.which paint is used to paint the engine black a spray or some other paint.please tell me wheter it will last long or not what is the charge approximately of job.

If you want stylish ALLOYS then you have only one option of upgrading from outside SC.


7. My front diskbrake is having black linings on the diskplate wht is the reason.
Donot know the reason, but, all bikes have them.
