    That would be me.. with the initial windows releases (Urban Dictionary: plug and pray), plug and play would often fail, so people called it "Plug and Pray". Seemed to be a similar situation . "Plug and Prey" is also apt.

    No, the thread was not updated with the experience. The person in question preferred to keep quiet while he bought a new bike. If any experience, good or bad can help someone in making a decision, one must always try and elaborate rather than keep mum.

He was made out to be the Magician who can say "Toon" and un lock hidden performance,which even the manufacturer didn't know of...
      Only now it is known that it was BLACK MAGIC all along...a Whammy and a HEX on the engine.
      I think he is only one who has the capability to challenge any bike manufacturer. Who knows may be he has plans to start his own company to manufacture independent bikes or join hands with another manufacturer to design engines and performance goodies. Lol

        No, the thread was not updated with the experience. The person in question preferred to keep quiet while he bought a new bike. IMO, that is an injustice to other members because being a moderator carries a greater responsibility on the forum. If any experience, good or bad can help someone in making a decision, one must always try and elaborate rather than keep mum.
        Yes Mr. AK3D...it was your inspiring words that I quoted... I did not want to quote your name since I prefer the Information to come from you...just like the many owners who had called up in distress to me with failed mods from the Tooner....I prefer that they come forward to share ,than my posting their name. In discussions like this it is better to leave members who are not coming forward to share details of their experience, since all of us Live by Our Choice and everyone is entitled to his/her own view.
        This thread is all about members who had come forward to share their experience voluntarily, and we should not drag in anyone ,who is not willing to share for their own specific reason...
        Let us honor the feelings of others in this regard, and continue with our sharing. ....."all about Tuning ,with bullet proof mods,with better than Stock reliability."

          The concerned person clearly mentioned he is not using his tooned pulsar much as Duke is there.
          And there is no hard and fast rule that if a person is allowed to start a thread for a company he "has" to be officially involved. If this would have been the case, every mod should have received free "goodies" and person who got it, should have been happy with his tooned bike, but he upgraded.

            Yes, there is no hard and fast rule here, but TBHP is against any marketing stuff. I think the admins of this site are very liberal.

            PS: Is the tooner providing any warranty for his big bore or does he promise money back for unsatisfied customers?

              Hardly inspiring . I was just left amazed at the extent to which people spent time and money for something that was obviously not up to the mark.
              I didn't have the honour of getting my bike tooned. I upgraded to a bigger bore - from a CBZ to a ZMA, based on inputs from you and others. If I had tinkered about with the CBZ engine, I might have a story to relate here as well . Thankfully, I knew little last year (and still know very little). However, this much I do know, I will not subject my engine to any of these tortures.

              I agree, I am not dragging in anyone's name, but just pointing out that there was no experience shared.

              I do have a request to other members, please DO share your experiences - but in the way [MENTION=32641]shv18[/MENTION] did, with notes, pictures and clear examples of what happened etc. Please do not resort to name calling or mud slinging, for that is not the purpose of the thread at all.

                It is inspiring ...... Like the "Tooner" which seems more appropriate.

                  Not true is it, ever heard of JayBee Ell?
                  Beware of Bread, don't say I didn't warn you!
                  More than 98 percent of convicted criminals are bread eaters !
                  Statistics show that more than 75 % of violent crimes are committed within 24 hours of eating bread !
                  Bread is known to be extremely addictive. Subjects deprived of bread and given only water, actually begged for bread after just two days !
                  Bread has been proven to kill. Scientists have now uncovered alarming evidence that 100% of the people who eat bread will eventually die !

                      Hey DivyaSharan, i dont blame that poor soul, one of my friend too is an xbhp member but is completely unaware of this eye-opening thread about RC. He wanted to go for FFE when we discussed over last weekend, I was like what the.. Dude are you sure you want to go ahead? have you seen the thread Powerhouse FZ18? and he says "yes he is one happy RC customer & review is positive". The thing is he has completely missed last few pages of thread.
                      The Title says Power house FZ18 and if one opens the thread page 1 all he says is shower of praises about RC and most of them have not seen last few pages of this thread. There needs to be a new thread opened to make everyone aware with title like RC long term review/ RC woes or something like that to reach bigger audience

                        I know brother. That's why I asked him to read the entire thread from page 1, but he read only page number 1.
                        We have had many threads loathing RC products right from post#1, but this thread shows how the feelings change. First the owner is happy/un-informed and how that happiness turns sour. Its a full book worthy turn of events.

                        I don't blame him. That's why I shared it here to know how we can change this mentality.

                          This problem with New people is seen all over Xbhp.They just read a couple of posts and assume things...worse still some don't even make the effort to read anything and just start to post as a know all....The worst will be from a noob who reads everything(so he will say) and still asks questions on same things ...why ? because he wanted to post and find out what is the reaction from members. So we have every kind of people here , and we have to guide them if they want it.....those who do not want our share of knowledge MUST be left alone to learn later.

                              @shv18 & @N-o-v-i-c-e, please edit the beginning of the first post. Please add links to all the posts which reveal the true story of RC or atleast tell the readers that story has a big twist waiting! And also links to all the informative posts by you, @psrji, @abhimanyu31 etc. This should really help in reading only the required portion of this 83 page thread!

                              Posts above by Divya & road_ripper clearly indicate that this thread is not fully achieving its purpose

                                Also editing the name of the thread would be great. Powerhouse fz18 is a bit misleading.
