    When you plonk a K&N, it allows in more air than the stock air-filter. Now, each engine is optimized to run a certain air-to-fuel volume ratio. Putting a K&N filter drastically increases your air volume but your fuel volume stays the same. This is when the engine runs lean. A lean engine will run much hotter and stresses the engine to unhealthy degrees.
    What jets i need to replaced ? Can you suggest what is tuning i required to do ? Last time when i checked with the Mechanic and guy who installed said ,this set up does not require up jetting i asked them several times regarding this up jetting..
    You need to replace the main jet to a larger size and also re-tune the carb's pilot circuit through the AFR screw.

    I'm not very sure of the exhaust part but a lot of people have done the K&N mod + upjetting on their stock silencers without any problems. I guess a more free flowing exhaust is always better but i dont think the stock exhaust will be much of a bottle-neck in the combustion cycle.

        I have a similar question,where is motul oil available in kochi?.No,you are not supposed to use 20w40 oil.It has to be xW50 ie;20w50,15w50 etc.I am going to use the 'xbhp kerala' thread to ask about the availability of motul oil.

          • @vasu: +1 to VD17 whatever he said is very cleanly correct. Try up-jetting the main jet to Karizma's one. And don't worry about the Exhaust it is built to last.

            20w40 is a strict NO NO... Try asking at the Kerela g2g thread as suggested by Ghost11.

                              Oppss. sorry I mean brake fluid reservoir is empty. That part which is near the front brake lever, you could see the oil level through glass window provided there.
