guys anyone from pune owning yamaha???? can anyone tell any good sc or good mechanic for yamaha?

I have installed HID in my gladi 2006 model. I took my bike to bangalore for dc conversion. Ruby Electricals in bangalore do that. Then purchased HID from Navnish. You can find him in xbhp itself. Then installed HID in my bike. I changed my battery to exide 7ah. Costed total around 5000.

Hi, All,

I am in the process of resurecting my brother's 2006 Gladi. I have purchased some of the spares from Yamaha authorised spare outlets in Mapusa and Panjim, Goa. The details are as follows:

1) Brake pad kit Rs. 130, 2) Race bearing kit Rs. 294, 3) Shock oil Rs. 116, 4) Front shock dust seal Rs.92/pair, 5) choke cable Rs. 27, 6) Clutch cable Rs. 74, 7) Throttle cable Rs. 67, 8) Cylinder head gasket Rs. Rs. 95, 9) Gasket magnet side Rs. 20, 9) Gasket crank case Rs.34, 10) Rocker 'O' Ring Rs. 24/pair, 11) Spark Plug NGK CR7HSA Rs. 70, 12) Spark plug cap Rs. 70, 13) Rear brake shoe kit Rs. 250. These prices are inclusive of VAT. 14) Castrol 4T 20W50 oil ( 1 ltr ) Rs. 260. 15) Front shock oil seals are not available here, but managed to get look alikes for Rs. 175/pair. It was a rip-off.

Unfortunately, I kicked the bike and jammed the piston. ( I suspect there was water in the engine oil ). I have to open the engine but spares like oil seals are not available. Have to place an order for the same. A set of chain and sproket with Yamaha packing costs Rs. 1200.

Can any one on the fora help me in suggesting genuine spare dealers in Goa other than Yamaha outlets please.
Thanks

service manual for Gladiator

Hi,
This link does not exist now. Can someone please provide the correct link. Thanks.

I would suggest you take ur carb to another mechanic and show it. The low pick up might not be a carb problem.

Was the whole change worth it? Does it need a 7ah battery to operate?? What about the recharging rate of the battery??

Ill try and look for the manual. Im not sure if its still on my old hard drive. If it is ill upload it.

gladiator parts

Hi Prashant,
thanks for your support. I need to know if the following parts are available and the cost. The bike is Gladiator SS model 5YY
Block-Piston kit
Valves
Carburettor
Thanks

Finally i got what the problem is,
Today morning i went to the sc again and asked what is the exact problem. Then they told me the Diaphragm of the carb has worn out. And when i asked can't u replace that diaphragm then to my surprise they told NO and told whole carb needs to be replaced. Then i immediately called mangalore sc and spoke to the service head. Then he told me diaphragm can be replaced. Guys plz note for reference, the carb diaphragm part number is 5YY2441110 and costs Rs 104. So its very clear that these sc guys in pune were cheating me. I really had the worst experience in YAMAHA FACTORY SHOP which is located in Wakdewadi,Pune.

Well the change is worth it bcoz the light is extremely powerful bright white light. and 7ah would be needed if you have self start in your bike. But my bike is kick start so 5ah would suffice but i went for 7ah. And about the recharging rate i guess it should be 0.3C ie 0.3 times the capacity of battery. Iam not sure about it because some ppl even recommend half the capacity of battery.

Even i was thinking the same when i first heard ur problem. Most of the parts on the carb can be changed. Good u got that sorted out.

Okay. Even i have been thinking of visiting ruby electricals from a long time now. But have always been in two minds. I asked about the recharging rate because in the light thread, people recommend a change to ape rectifier. Im sure ill be giving this mod a thought again. Realised yet again today that the headlight on the gladi is like holding a candle at speed. Hit a pothole hard on the highway.

Battery

Hi Bala,
I just want to know if your Amaron battery is a wet ( with distilled water ) or dry ( gel ). I have visited the Amaron Pitstop and have been advised against using a dry cell as the starter takes a higher load of current. They say a wet battery is good for bikes like Yamaha. Please advise.
Regards,

I know the question was directed to Bala. However, I am using Amaron Pro Bike Rider battery and I am facing no problems. Its a dry cell battery.

Battery

Hi Prashanth,
Thanks for the post. I'll try to get that for my bike. Do you use the AP-ATX5L or the AP-ATX9 battery. If you use the 9AHr battery, do you use the original rectifier that came with the bike? I'm waiting for the ordered parts to arrive. Cheers.....

Using the AP-ATX5L. Dint find the need for a 9ah battery since i am running stock electrical setting on the bike.

Thanks mate. Cheers...............

Spare Parts

Sent an email to Yamaha Motor Company on January 30 enquiring the availability of some critical parts like piston - block kit, valve kit, chain - sproket set and carburator. Received an email and a telephone call today asserting that the parts are available in stock. Placed an order with the local dealer. Lets see when they arrive. Cheers......
