Question Please Help: Overhaul of Ambition 125 for Touring

Hi, I need to do a complete overhaul of my 2003 Ambition 125 cc bike for touring in the hills. I have several queries, so please bear with me.

Please suggest a good mechanic in Delhi/Gurgaon. Also, please advise on the following components/supplies:

1) Engine oil - Which engine oil is suitable for Ambition 125 for touring in the high hills - Ladakh? how pricey is it? where in Delhi can I get my hands on it?

2) HeadLight - I have read several posts where bikers are advised to change the headlamp to one that has a wider focus for better rides in the hills. Can you suggest an appropriate bulb? Again, where in Delhi to procure?

3) Which shop in Delhi can I buy Cotton Baraclavas and a Touring Helmet (dust proof/sturdy visor? any recommendations for the helmet?

4) Tyres - Which tyres are suitable for use in Ambition 125 on the hills. Specific model?

5) Suspension: If I were to modify the suspension to suit touring - what suspension should i use for rear tyres? make and price?

6) Carburettor - When is it advisable to change the bike carburettor? I have clocked 1,00,000 + kms on my bike without changing carburettor? Do I need to change? Which one?

7) Spark Plug - For high altitude/low oxygen steep climbs, which is the best spark plug for Ambition 125?

Thanks in advance to people who reply. Also, thanks to the Senior Members of XBHP who have provided amazing level of details regarding several aspects of biking - oils, safety tips, emergency medication - to name a few!
