    Company recommends 25psi in the front and at the rear 29psi without pillon and 33psi with pillion... All these pressures are as indicated in Cold condition...

    • Headlight query

      By the way cant we get little more powerful stock bulb itself... I mean we use 35W halogen bulb... Can we use something like a 55W bulb without any problem...??? Can any one throw some light on its characteristics like
      1. Will be burn the inner reflector due to heat produced in long run
      2. Will it drain the battery much faster or at reasonable rate
      3. And if possible can anyone post the rules according to ministry of transport for using a headlight... I tried to google it out and was not successful... If anyone has the info please post it, as it will be useful to many of us...

      and sorry for not adding this query in above post...act i had forgot then

      • oil additives.....??????????

        @Soumen; I require another suggestion.
        Is the oil additives are good for our engines?? I have searched all the major engine oil websites and they have suggested not to use any additives. Even few websites raised their voice against using any additives. But, still, can we use any additives??? Actually I am very much concerned about the health of the engine.
        Bajaj is recommending bardahl engine treatment.
        Can we do anything XTRA for our precious engine ?????
        Move on.........

          Dude if you love you bike the never do bellow things.

          Don’t use any Fuel and engine oil Additive. These will give you short time pleasure but not good for future. The default oil and fuel itself added with additive.

          Never flush your engine, at least before 20k km.
          Don’t unnecessary modify your bike.
          Always go for manufacturer’s recommendation (except Brand) like tire pressure, oil grade, fuel etc.


          If you want a healthy engine then always keep it clean from inside. Drain oil and put fresh oil that’s enough.

          The best thing is to keep the engine healthy is use mineral oil and drain it at every 1500 km. As I said before the oil get darker not only due to heat, due to the friction between metal and the metal create sludge and the oil collect them. Basically these mineral oils loose its actual capabilities after just 1000-1200km so it looses the smoothness. Don’t go for any thing that will give you short time pleasure.

          And regarding the fog light, you can get good verity light only at Kolkata Wellington auto market. And in locality you can get only the regular lights.

          I’m thinking to put a good one single aftermarket Projector Fog light separately. I think its enough. I don’t know its available in Kolkata or not, I’ve to check, But I didn’t manages to visit there.

            • Well said mate, I agree with all your lines,

              @onwheels:
              > Use only engine oil grade recommended by OEM (brand no bar), mineral is best for Honda engines, HH clearly says don't use synthetic oil...
              > Ist drain before 500 kms or as recommended by OEM.
              > IInd drain 1/2 of engine oil life (i.e if it's 6000kms, drain at 3000 kms or earlier)
              > Next you can follow top up/ drain as recommended by OEM/Engine oil brand.

                              I had this thing in my mind from long time back. But putting like these things are very tuff. Gear leaver left side is still ok but the right side rear set would be very difficult to connect the rear brake lever. These aftermarket things u can get easily but these are for rear disc brake. Also you can go for FZ rear set assembly but still it would be difficult to install I think.

                              • P200/P220 Exhaust

                                I like the P200/P220 exhaust. Can we install it in Hunk directly? I’m only concern about the exhaust head. If the diameter of the exhaust head and the locking nut position are not same then it would be difficult or require some mod. Any idea any one?
