  • Have problem with my Unicorn and need a service dealer

    Hi everyone,

    I recently drove my Unicorn in the Gurgaon - Delhi express highway with a helmet in the rear helmet lock. I was driving at a constant speed between 80 - 100. After few km ride I felt like my engine was struggling. I was not able to drive above 60-70. Initially I thought it was due to lack of fuel. So I changed the fuel to reserve. But still it was struggling. So when I stopped the bike to check I found that the helmet has got rubbed with the tyre and both have worn out. Now my tyre has almost worn out completely. Front disc brake oil level is also well below thw minimum level. Moreover its been time for service too. Since I have recently moved to Gurgaon I need your help to find either a good mechanic or a good service centre. I even need to know which tyre make will be better.

      Hi Alagappan;

      I have sent you my no., you can call me. I will be able to help you with your issues. As far as the tyre is concerned you can visit Karol Bagh, new Delhi & enquire about MRF tyres from there. I would suggest you to go for MRF Zapper-Q 100/90*18 for your bike, as I was using the same tyre in my unicorn earlier. It provides excellent grip, looks sportier & lasts long too. It will cost you somewhere roung 1.5 to 2 k... For disc brake oil, I can provide you with that. I have a castrol oil bottle which I used for my unicorn's disc brake. U can take that from me, no need to spend money for that, as I work in Gurgaon only.. & for service, I will suggest you to buy engine oil yourself, you can go for MOTUL 15w50, which costs around Rs.250, & is the best oil compared to any other, as I used it personally. I don't know its complete name but you can find it easily. You can get the engine oil changed, spark plug & air filter cleaned & chain & brakes adjusted by any local mechanic but don't let him do anything else to your bike. For any issues you can call me & I'll be more than happy to help...
