    Hello All,

    The manual says the fuel tank capacity is 12.4 Lts with 2.2 Lts reserve.

    I had gone to the HP petrol station with my bike in reserve. I had just run some 5 Kms in reserve. I had asked for full tank and it took 14 litres of speed pertrol.

    How this is possible. so the total fuel capacity of HH Hunk is 12.4 + 2.2 = 14.6 Lts

    Or I may have duped by the petrol bunk. Its a company outlet and I had seen the zero reading on the pump.

    I am bit confused. can you please try to clear it.

    Thank you.

    First and foremost, did u fill it till the brim? If so, it s very natural for an extra 1~2 litres to be accomodated.
    When everything comes ur way, u r in the wrong way ;)

    • It took 14 lts from the pump and I had 2 Lts in reserve. so the total fuel tank capacity is 16 Lts, if we fill it to the brim?

        Yes, if u fill it till the neck, it ll take in a few more litres.

        In a Pulsar, the stated capacity is 15 litres, but i ve filled in even 18 litres many a times , but it was full till the brim

        So,chill,no wories about that.

        BTW, few pumps have this auto cut-off feature. If u tell "Tankful" they engage a button and keep the dispenser into the tank, and take their hands away. It automatically detects when it reaches "Full" level and cuts off. This is the best method for filling fuel. And it does not fill upto the brim too.

        • Thank you for the info. I am bit worried previously. I will say 14 lts from now other than tank full in the Petrol station.

            Why do you want to take risks with these battries? If they leak, you will regret it...

            Exactly Unsealed batteries are not that reliable and long lasting. But Manufacturers leave us with no choice. Amaron is the only sealed Battery manufacturer and the battery with the CBZ-X self start config is not available in their catalogue(I enquired with the Amaron distributor here in pune). So no choice so had to stick with Amco.

                Please dont go in for Amco. As I said, the stock battery leaked and has spolt the metal all around it and also the swingarm!! Amco and Exide are EVIL!

                Try to get Base Terminal (Panasonic)... next best choice. I'm sure they have 7 Ah batts. I got it from Nana Peth. Should be available elsewhere too.

                Another option is Tata Green.

                      I am running 100/90's from past 1.5 years, the coil is rewinded and the rectifier is being replaced.

                        100/90..!!!, I am still dreaming about 55/60 here . So how is the overall performance of electricals with it. Is it DC converted?

                        And any difference with Iridium & Stock Plug??

                        • Today I went to get Iridium Plug for my Xtreme, But only came to Know that NGK does not have any Iridium made fro Xtreme, Unicorn, Achiver.

                          I have checked the NGK catalogue with the dealer, It doesnt mention about Iridium for the above 3 bikes.

                          Checked the website too.. http://ngkntk.in/two_wheelers.php?ma...l=CBZ+-+Xtreme

                          So, I ended up getting NGK G-Power for my Xtreme. There is slight improvement in Smoothness and Bike revs more freely now.

                            Sorry bit busy nowadays so away from antharjaal there is day and night difference in performance, no dc conversion the stock lighing coil is been rewinded and the stock regulator is being replaced with a bigger one.

                            I didn't feel much difference though apart from crisp starts.

                                Hello Friendz, one bad news, I parked my bike in office parking and due to some congested space the gate keeper tried to shift my bike a bit but ended in cracking the upper left switch cover of my bike



                                Now the pass signal button(I loved it) is not working properly as its holder near the switch is cracked+some broken. Any Suggestions will be highly appreciated....
