  • Mileage CBZians

    hi guys,
    can you please post total KMS covered and what is the mileage you are getting on your CBZ?
    Please help me in deciding one. I love CBZ but slight fear of mileage factor. I expect decent 50s...

    Let me know

      I get around 45-50 for 60 kmph and 35-40 for 80 kmph. I have even got mileage of 30 a few times
      First think you are special then work towards proving it.

        Let me know
        my odo = 2400 Km, current mileage : 50+ in highwayts, 45-50 in city. Someone else is getting 60+ here in xBhp. 45+ is a must in any situation.


        try these things either from ur own or @ SVC/Good mechanic :
        1) Very first thing change ur engine oil. i can understand how harsh/hot u would b feeling,its mostly because ur engine is new and few 100 kms are very crucial for setting of internal parts of the engine,so it requires frequent oil change. So go for the engine oil change today itself. Castrol\Shell\Motul\Elf 10W30 or 20W40. change it again after 300-400 Km(if money is nt an issue ).

        2)check for ur chain lubrication : i have done it recently on my own. put ur bike on centre stand, rotate the rear wheel with ur hand and see how smoothly its running? if u feel k tyre is not moving freely or having some noise inside the chain cover,get ur chain CLEANED/LUBRICATED ASAP.If u wana save some bucks and wanna tra a DIY just lemme know

        3)Get a good mechanic in ur locality and ask him to set ur carb. Just tell him k YE PETROL BAHUT PEE RAHI HAI . THODA CHECK KR DO. have a look how he is doing it,after that wen u return TURN THE SCREW (u would come to know urself which one ) anticlockwise 1 turn to make it little RICH.

        4)Keep air pressure correct : 28 REAR, 31 Front

        point 1 and 2 : get it done ASAP. 80 % of ur problem is because of this
        3: rest of 20 %
        4: for ur routine checkup
        and dont feel as if u would bored any of us here, everyone needs help ,just dnt hesitate and let us know about ur issues

                  if u r getting 45-50 that too in city riding u r running fine,u can drop that option. but make sure u change ur oil change and lube the chain today itself.

                  As far as DIY about chin clenaing is concerned ,lok for the following post :



                  but keep atleast a good grease and 200ml of kerosene/diesel for cleaning

                    oh ok! should i just go to the service center and tell those guys to change the oil, using the same oil that they would use for 1st service? i mean their own HH oil? or shall i go for any other options?

                        Ya hh oil.i'd changed it in svc itself.as mentioned by sourabh you can go for castrol shell motul gulf etc if you are willing to do so.now i'm thinking of trying shell 10w30 at 1200km.

                          if u wish to go to svc than its ok, but i bet they would give u such a lok k you would be double minded for whether to change the oil or not.
                          so i would suggest u to go an outside mechanic and get ur engine oil changed,if u r feeling a HARSH and HOT engine, change it to 20W40 (Castrol/motul/shell/elf) otherwise u can go for 10W30 as well.

                          currently Using Shell AX30 feels better than Castrol 20W40

                            Yup sourabh thats true.even i faced the same problem when i went to svc for oil change at 350km.they were speaking as if they were giving oil free of cost.better to get it changed outside.if he wish to use oem oil,then he can buy it from svc and change it outside.i'l never go to svc for oil change other then regular service intervals.

                            • Price difference

                              The double disc version of Hunk cost Rs 79200 and CBZ xtreme 75000 respt.

                              can any body please enlighten me why there is difference of almst 3500 rs as engine being the same.. is it only because of the more bulkier looks of Hunk.
