    hmmm,....personally I don't like such modification, you need spend a lot for same functionality of the dash, think again, classic dash is neat as well ? Check out total cost (fitting+dash+etc) and then decide...

        • Just back from a short 10 km ride. Since the suction pipe was not in place, it sounded so good and i was in a slight rip mode. . shifts above 6k and speed around 75.
          When i stopped, there was a kinda burning smell from the engine. Is this normal..? Or is it because i ripped..?

                  the smell is due to the HH engine oil.

                    Really..? Hows that possible..? I mean, is it due to the oil getting over-heated or something..?

                      Nope buddy, the spares availability of hero honda is truely pathetic. I have been waiting for 2 months for my set of front fairing to arrive. Everytime, i get the same response. I.e, agli baar aa jayega. Finally i shot mail to local representative and still no action. as a last resort, i put a mail to zonal marketing nead and within 4 days, the parts arrived..

                      But the parts have not been installed as yet cos of my stupidity of skipping the headlight which is expected to take the next 5 days... Lol
                      talk about pathetoc service and hero honda tops it off...

                        As far as my experience goes, the fuel gauge, although analogue, is far from accurate. Shows full when half and empty when half.

                        And one more thing - I think you will need to replace sensors too. Atleast for speed and RPM. I may be wrong. Do confirm it.

                          +1^ You are right, Karizma's sensor cost's 3000rs. Karizma's whole speedo will cost you nearly 10k,I think it will be less that that for a hunk..

                            Its nothing to worry about. Some minerals or something get burn off to keep the engine temp in control that's one of the reason why you should top up regularly.

                            I'm using power 1 i'm not getting any such smell.

                                Its not a ss oil its part s and SS oil is costlier and i switched over at 11k kms. You can switch at 6k i think.
