      • LED Brake Light Mods - Activa

        Hi,
        After the LED Indicator mods, i have done some mods to the brake light. Using 30 LEDs mounted on a general purpose PCB, it gives off enough brightness using very low power.
        I still use the stock bulb for tail light, which serves the purpose of holding the pcb in place - so no unnecessary screws or adhesives.
        I pulled the power from the main connector near the engine (you need to open the hood to access it). Ran a separate wire for the purpose, but can be done without that if u dont plan to use stock bulb.

        PCB Assembled


        LEDs Powered Up


        LED PCB Installed


        LEDs lighted up. It throws enough light on the number plate too.

            Hi,
            There is a very nice post regarding changing engine oil for Activa. I guess it applies to Dio also, just go through.

                  Hi Kshitij,

                  You can check the Lighting section under universal threads for HID mods.
                  Also you can contact Vishal on facebook (Vishal Customiz | Facebook) he is into modifying and HIDs.
                  I think he does body work also.. just check it out.

                    Hii. This is my first post here. I have purchased a new aviator disc 2 days ago. Would like to know the mileage it would give at a driving speed of 40-50 kmph.
                    Where can I get the chassis no. imprinted on my scooter. Unable to locate it.
                    Within my first day of purchase, I found that the front wheel was very much jammed ( disc one ), Apply much pressure with hand to rotate it. The honda people told me its normal. But I am unable to understand as it might be giving me less fuel economy due to it. They then told me that they had released some air gap from it,and it will work fine. But still its little bit tight. Could anybody help me out.

                    Thanks in advance,
                    Arindam Saha Choudhuri

                    Hii, Dear Friends,

                    I have completed my first 1000 kms day before yesterday on my aviator. The mileage I am getting now is around 42 -44 kmpl (Only city driving). The performance of the scooter is average, but the first servicing was terrible. They just washed, changed oil, some screw setting with carburetor and that's it. No air filter clean, no spark plug clean etc. I am facing some balancing issues, I don't know why? While taking a turn at very slow speed, applying very slight rear brake pressure, the front steering feels heavier or wobbles without pillion rider. Even after going through potholes, the same problem arises, the rear portion tends to wobble slightly,( Not with the case with WEGO). The tyre pressure are full according to manual. Starting issue is there, in morning. The rear suspension is very hard, big problem for pillion rider. The scooter engine is good, refined. The speedo needle constantly moves like jerking( no smooth movement ). The headlight brightness may be very very good, but the focus is very bad even after best adjustment, Can't see the road properly, ( Help needed for xenon light fitting, if applicable on aviator.)Will fit a Xenos Remote Lock FW 45 this saturday. Found a dealer in kolkata. I am not sure how much useful will it be... Help needed on this regard. The locks are not good, the keys just don't go in smoothly even after oiling. The front disc brake problem has gone a lot. The front wheel is moving a bit freely now, but it jams at a particular point and then again rotates freely. The Honda Servicing is really bad, The technicians just don't communicate with the customer properly, don't explain a problem thoroughly, etc. Didn't received the registration number yet after more than 1 month complete. Within 1 month, I am facing so many minor glitches, don't know what would happen after 2-3 years.
                    I personally wouldn't recommend anybody to go for Honda aviator, in kolkata, the roads are very very bad, no comfort, no good mileage, etc. Rather go for a bike with big wheels and good mileage, they are better in metro cities. I had driven Hero Winner for 5 long years, the scooter handling was far better than Aviator.

                    Regards,

                      • Does anyone have any idea how to set up the sensitivity of rear break lamp? It is too sensitive to the rear break. If one even touches the rear break, it glows up, so while driving, it is like a Diwali decoration, flashing all the time! 3 services done, but no mechanic has yet adjusted it.

                        My GS150 has a knob that adjusts this sensitivity. Is there any such thing in aviator?

                              Probably the brake nut has got over tightened. Just get it adjusted at your local mechanic.
