        For the front, the stock tyre itself is good. If you choose dedicated off road tyre for front, the handling will be reduced to great extent.
        For the handle bar, you can install Hunk handle bar, but you need to change from the base plate.

          So i left it that way and gradually things got worse, finally i was able to have a mechanic "feel" the vibration and he took in the vehicle for a checkup. So turns out that the clutch plate is not stable because of the internal ball bearing. And this needs to be changed.

          He quoted a coat of 8 - 10k all inclusive and also would just ensure that the bike runs after the fix. Any problem that may arise say a week later would not be covered as a warranty. Any body faced a similar issue in the past ? Help pls...

          Regards,

          8-10k is quite a high price.
          It will be far less. Go to Authorized SVC with this diagnosis.

After that they told me it won't happen again. So i thought the problem is over and after 2 weeks when i was traveling to home from office it was rainy day and drive my bike for around 3km suddenly the same issue occurred and after 2-3 min it started and i went home.

          The next following day i took it for HH service center and told the issue then they told me that they have to chk each and every wiring carb the valve and let me know so i handover the bike to them. After 2 hours the informed me that the switch in side the bike are not fixed properly (loosen) and the water have gone between them and that's why it happens this was the reply they gave me.

          After that they handover the bike to me after fixing the issue. Waiting for a rainy day to see it happens again. Because after i pick my bike from HH service center completing first service it rain heavily but the bike didn't stop. Also after 2 weeks from my first service while i'm coming home it was a rainy day the road was dark and there were no street lights so i drive it around 30 - 35 speed suddenly i didn't notice the road was flooded with water around 2 inch so the water gets splashed. So this might be the reason the water gets in from the valve ? I want to know why it happens ? is this a small issue or serious issue ?

          Waiting for your reply.....

          This is old problem, even on Xtremes.
          As rightly pointed out, its the breather pipe getting blocked.
          Make sure it is clean always and away from water splashes.

            My bike just completed 32K. Till now I didn't feel any issue as such with my bike. Can you please suggest if its advisable to do below works as I have not one any of these in this entire tenure.
            1. Carb Cleaning
            2. Oil filter(both filters) cleaning
            3. Tappet Adjustment

            One day I felt problem with my Disc brake and mechanic cleaned the brake system and topped up with DOT3 oil. Do you know if I can continue with mixture of these DOT3 and stock DOT4 oil or I have to flush the system and fill DOT4?

            My rear tyre needs replacement I guess. Please suggest which one would be good for my bike (strictly tubeless tyres)
            1. Dont mess with the carb unless something is off, if all is well, ignore and keep riding.
            2. If you're referring to the Centrifugal filter then do clean it once in a while atleast keeping a 25k interval. As for me, I'm ignoring it and waiting to do it along with a clutch change.
            3. Recommended intervals is a little too frequent hence personally I'll only bother about it when there's clatter.

            As for disk brakes, once the fluid level goes low dont bother with refilling, change pads and change fluid in one go. Cause unlike engine oil, brake fluid doesnt get consumed per say, the only reason for fluid going down ideally would be due to break pad wear. I personally change it in 10~15k intervals to be on the safer side as I've messed up once with my ZMA.

              Did anyone hear this ?
              7 Hero Bikes Discontinued Including Karizma R Owing To Lower Sales, These Bikes Have Been Removed From The Company's Official Website.


              Looks like Hunk and Xtreme production has been stopped.
              Finally the inevitable has happened!

                  Yeah, I know.
                  But I don't think they will retain it for too long.
                  Hope Hero will come up with fresh products for the 150cc line up.

                    Neither the design nor the engine of xtreme sports worth retaining for long. The updated engine is too noisy at idle. At least Design wise they are getting better now with new glamour, achiever, maestro edge and duet. Engine issues with maestro edge and i smart 110 are reported to be sorted out.

                        It's need some decent mods to fix them because of current clip-on handle bars. You may need to change the fork tubes and base plate with hunk then you can fix any bar handle

                        • Need help to resolve a Short Circuit in my bike

                          Hi All,

                          I own a CBZ Xtreme 2008 model, on which I have traveled around 65000 kms, and still going on rapidly without any problems.
                          Recently I am facing a issue of Short circuit, what happens is, when my bike's ignition is ON and I turn on the Indicator, Pass light, Brake light, Tail Lamp and then when I press the horn the RPM suddenly goes up(remember the bike is not started yet). Actually I was just checking, how long my battery would last on a single charge when everything is turned ON, and this is what I faced the RPM meter going up on pressing the horn. I suspect a short circuit but I am not aware how to check it.
                          Need all of your help and suggestion to resolve the issue asap, ( I myself do servicing and minor repair of my bike).
                          A quick reply will very much be appreciated.

                            Hi guys,

                            Background:
                            My GS150R cannot keep up with 1500 on the odometer at the start so I have to use the big screw to tune it till 1500 everyday but when it gets hot after a few Kms it goes up to 1800-2000 so again I bring it down to 1.5k while on my way.
                            Recently(20-30kms back) my tank was filled with water, got it cleaned but I don't know if he cleaned the carburettor (He said he just opened the carb and removed the water cos a week ago he had himself serviced it)
                            He also told me the drain hole is choked so water will flow inside anyhow and he put a big plastic tank cover

                            Issue:
                            The bike stalls while running. From 1500 it goes down slowly in a second or two and dies. It would start after a few forced self starts and after a lot of throttle it runs. Showed it to him and he said "Air ka problem hai" and did something on the right side near the fuel flow pipe.
                            It stalled again and he did the same shit and told me it won't happen again and if it did then open the tank lid and close it

                            A while ago it stalled again, I opened the lid for 2 seconds, closed it and bang it started fine.

                            Possible Reasons?
                            1. Is it the tank drainage hold that's building some kind of pressure and hence the stalling?
                            2. Is it my carburettor? The carb pin is put to place using a tiny plastic piece so it doesn't overflow (been there for 2 years)
                            3. Is it cos I keep my fuel flow to off mode and put in On cos of Point 2

                            Please help guys, I have my exams in a month and have to travel daily to the library on my bike.

                              Giving a slight throttle in the mornings to hold the idle RPM is fine during cold starts. Set the idle RPM to 1500-1600 when hot.
                              Does your bike have something over the tank that obstructs air flow into the tank?
                              If the bike bogs down after running for few kms (hot engine), then it could be due to very rich AFR or due to slightly engaged choke.
                              On top of that - hope you do periodic cleaning/replacing of air filter.

                                Hello Everyone.

                                I am Chand from Hyderabad. This is my first post in this forum, however I have been following xBhp for expert advice for the past 12 years. I currently own a CBZ Xtreme (2012) make and has clocked about 82K (total) during my various road trips. For the past two years I was away and my dad was using the bike.

                                I returned back home recently and since the past one month I noticed that the bike is acting weird above 6000 RPM or 80 KMPH in 5th gear. It is having a jerking/running out of breath kind of feeling. The top end Xtreme is known for is totally gone and climbs to a max of 95-99 KMPH on ripping (just to check). The sound, acceleration and everything else till 80 KMPH feels totally normal and runs fine. I would like to ask the experts here a few pointers or areas where I can get my hands dirty. A local mechanic said it is due to carbonization of engine and I need to get it bored. However there is no smoke from the silencer.

                                If it is due to compression leakage or something related to engine I will get a new cylinder and piston. Kindly let me know your thoughts. Thank you.
