sproket size

whats the size of cbz xtream sprokets

i need to change it in way way it runs ~60 at 4000rpm.
I got advised from sprokets thread to change front sproket from 14 to 15T of unicorn. please conform the size,

if any one else here did it? wats the ~cost of front sproket?

IIRC, Sibun and Sarbanoxley had tried Unicorn sprockets and posted their experiences here.
I believe they both reverted to their stock setting later.
Check for posts couple of months back.

Sibun and i have done it ...the uni sprocket costs Rs150 ....good for highway cruising ...you wont feel the need to change gears often ...gearing becomes taller.The bike becomes very relaxed and this is the first thing you will notice but the pickup will go down a bit.

Yeah reverted back to check the mileage on stock sprocket...but i still love the uni sprocket for highway rides .

Dot 4 fluid is synthetic and thus has better properties than dot 3. Use Dot 4 fluid, Kbx pads and see the difference. Your brake will sometimes surprise you by very hard bite.
And regarding your brake sound, see i had told you that the metal strip was the culprit. Most of the mechanics are donkeys and never know what to do.I am lucky that my mechanic is best one and i learned a lot from him. Always ask me before going for any work on your bikes.

Since sarbonoxely has already posted the experience, i will add, i have been using the same in my Joy for past 2 years and i drain it at 3k. I have not used it in my extreme. Since my Joy engine is very smooth and also gear shift is very smooth(requiring just a touch of gear lever and no pressing) so i cannot comment on it but the engine revs very fast and also maintains the temperature for long. It will heat up quick but after sometime it will stabilize and engine will never overheat.

I have seen this from two days but first i looked in my bike then i am replying. It is the bolt holding the neutral switch to the engine. It cannot leak from there but it is leaking from somewhere else and flowing towards this bolt. Go to an outside mechanic and open the front sprocket cover and check. You will get the source and cause.

Sorry, to know about your bike. It feels bad to move from biker to cager.

Leave the laps of service center and find a good independent mechanic. They will be happy and will work with interest because they will get customers with there work. The showroom mechanic knows that they will get salary even if they do not solve problems. But this is SVC problem.
My SVC is very good and

Hey brobikers, since i've completed 6.2k kms, i'm thinking of oil change. I went to a shop and found semi synthetic Castrol power 1 @ Rs 310 and fully synthetic @ Rs 680. Pls note that I'm still using Gulf 20w 40 and my mileage is 43.4 km/l Shall i switch back to 10w 30 and if semi-synthetic / fully synthetic is a good idea ?

43.4kmpl is a decent average on a hunk. IMO a w30 oil is not really suited to tropical indian climate(temperatures, especially in summers) if the bike is ridden hard/long rides. w30 does its job if you are using it on short runs of around 10km.
i personally will stay away from castrol , and why dont you try the shell ax7/motul/veedol xxw40 oils instead if you are looking for a change in the brand of oil.

does any one tried 110/90 18 back tyre on cbz with back disc? is it a direct fir or need to adjust anything??

Since the Dazzler is a 110/80 17 inchers at the back. I doubt the 17 or 18 matters too much. It also uses the same rear disc assembly as the CBZ/Hunk. So I guess it should be ok.

Also, I managed to get the R15 grips for Rs 65 today. I tried swapping them, but then there was an protrusion on the part of the accelerator grip that holds the cable that was bigger than the stock grips. So no change yet. :P
Although it didn't work, I am thoroughly happy that I managed to get my hands dirty and learn how to open up the accelerator assembly myself AND put it back together without much fuss.

Change to 10W40 if not, 10W30, I personally use Mobil1 10W40 on my bike and find it very good. You can use Semi Synthetic oil on your bike for now. Switch to fully synthetic oil after your engine is fully set in at 10k.

EDIT: I got the Grips from the R15 fixed. Needed a little bit of cutting, but it fit well after that. The grip end exactly at the end of our handlebar, so the bar end 'weights' looked a little ugly. Altered that also a bit and it looks and feels just like how I want it to.

Why you doubt like that?
Even 120/80 fits on Hunk, hence 110/90 should be direct fit on Xtreme.

Hi Guys As we all know that xBhp is going to shut down on 12/12/12 we should join respective groups in Facebook or somewhere else so that we always remain in touch.xBhp is so close to all of us. Its like our new identity in biking world. so guys i wish u join those groups and remain in touch 4ever.

Nice to see the changes on your bikes. I read it completely in TEAMBHP.
Nice to know about your experiences and all. Regarding your damaged master cylinder screw go to a mechanic and he will do it for you. He will take a sharp punch and open it by hammering it. Next get bajaj chetak headlight screw and fit. The chetak headlight screw are flat headed screw and not philips head like this one and thus it becomes easier to open next time.
Regarding your brakes, i read in TEAMBHP, no need to change to new master cylinder, instead go for KBX pads and DOT 4 brake fluid. From your post i can see, you are using Dot 3 oil and using Dot 4 oil will increase your breaking efficiency a lot. Buy a 250 ml can(anyways dot 4 is not available in smaller packs) and change both front and rear disc oil.
I do not think XBHP is going to shut down. I think it will be updated and a new format will be in place for all of us. Do you think one of the largest biking community will shut down so soon.

XBHP shutting down sounds like a prank ! Well played mods :-)

I must admit it sounds quite authentic. Like someone said , the site could be revamped.

Switch to semi synthetic if you want. But in my honest opinion , ride atleast till 15-18k before switching over to full synthetic. Let there be some wear and tear , let the valves set in . You can then use full synthetic oil and it will give best results.

Hi all..
I ve been away from the thread for a while due to personal inconveniences.
My bike has now clocked around 18.5K on the odo and is doing fine.
Last week switched to Mobil extra 4T 10W40 semi synth. Will be posting a review soon.
Also changed the brake fluid. I used TVS Girling DOT4 fluid. Its pretty cheap at Rs. 90 for 250 ml. The change is obvious. Brake bite and response has increased.
