Sorry for posting this in this section. Just didn’t have time to search for the appropriate section. Anyway , here I go….

I have a 91 Yezdi Roadking, with alloy wheels 18 inch with a Zapper 3.0-18 front & Dunlop 100/90 18 rear, front disc brake ( brembo) Paioli front suspension . Actually the wheels, disc brake & suspension came off an enfield Fury. The bore is hard chrome plated & the clutch is double chain.

The thing is that I’ve used bikes with disc brakes for a long time but these bikes all had alloy wheels . The other day, I rode a friend’s Pulsar 180. The thing is that when I braked hard ( front brake), I swear that I felt the wheel spokes flexing.It felt as if the front spokes were gonna break any moment. It definitely wasn’t the tyre squirming or anything.

After riding, I checked the spokes, & there wasn’t anything wrong with them.. Is it the bike or is it just me??!!

By the way, I used to do stoppies on my yezdi way back in 95 in traffic, the rear wheel a good 3 feet off the ground. And it scared the hell out of people!! They thought I was gonna land on my head! Anyway I stopped doing that cuz I busted the fork oil seals, & they’ve been leaking like they struck oil or something. Anybody know where I can get oil seals for the front suspension for the Enfield Fury in Hyderabad? And while we’re at it, I’m sure you guys know that steel braided hoses for the front brake increase stopping power to eye popping levels. Any idea where I can get them?

I plan on buying a Pulsar 180 ( don’t wanna wait 1 whole year for the new Pulsar). I wanna hot rod the engine. Anybody know a good engineer who can punch two more holes I the head to make it a 4 Valver??

I know this post’s getting waaay too long , but here’s my final comment.

People have been posting on how to improve the Karizma’s looks. I think it’s pretty simple. Just buy one in black. And paint the alloys flourescent orange,make a plastic shroud for the rear seat, Remove the KARIZMA & Hero Honda Badges & slap on a Honda Flying wing on the tank & NSR stickers on the fairing and Presto!

Tell me what you guys think.

did fury come with piolies?tht's interesting.am about to do the same implant on my rd.the fury's cast iron front brake is better than any of the present single disc made here.and u can't compare fury's forks with pulsar's,fury's fork dia is bigger than rd's too.so fork dive is less.making pulsar's head 4 valve is not fesable and will cost a lot.what to do is put a bigger piston,shave the head,up the compression and polish the valve heads and the ports with head too.gringing of cams and valve stem treatment only if you know 4 st.well or have a good tuner around.

Speedrocks..I live in Hyderabad. And by the way, I don't trust the local fabricators. The quality of work is EXTREMELY poor. They make parts which look good from a distance, but get close & u feel like puking. These guys don't know a thing about quality.

My brother knows how to make the stuff in fibreglass. Right from making moulds to the final 2K paint. He promised to teach me the stuff, but he ain't in the country right now. He's gonna show me when he gets back.

By the way, I can already make the fibreglass stuff, but it look obviously amateurish.

C'mon guys! I thought you were DIY(Do it Yourself) enthusiasts! Make the fibreglass stuff yourself ( It's REALLY easy!) & bask in the satisfaction!

And hey, about the cast iron brembo, where can I find pads for it man? anywhere in India. Cuz I replaced the pads with some cheap-o fakes & everytime if it even drizzles, the brake loses all power. Can I pucnh some holes in the disc to aid water removal? Also, when I brake, the front end pogoes up & down . I think the disc is warped or somethin. So do I change the disc, or fabricate a new one?

And yes, the Fury did come with Paioli front Forks.

ok.first drilling holes is good as helps loosing disc weight.and tht helps.second check the fork spring for tension.tht make the forks wobble.also put good quality pad.try the adreno or gf 125 pads if they fit.post a pic of ur bike in the 2 stroke fourm and any other interesting details.i'm a big fury fan.
