        Mine completed 23000 Kms now. Going with no issues. Changed only Oil at every 2000 KM intervals, Spark Plug and Air Filter at 9000Kms and 18000 Kms and Fork Oil and Disk oil at 20000 Kms. Do not remember the exact KM change interval. Given the closest ones.
        CBZ xtreme and uni share the same engine - here is some poor quality pics of my Xtremes CF filter - its the round one next to the clutch bell :



        if you change oil every 2K you will most probably need to clean it only once every 20K thats my exp . - when your bike is new you should clean it the first time at the required interval but there after you dont need to clean it that frequently at least in a uni/cbz with regular oil changes it wont get dirty that easily .

        if you check the snaps you will see some dirt and it was the first time i opened the CF filter - after that not even a spec of dirt even after 15K kms .

        • I had unicorn then came PULSAR 180cc was with me for 2 years. Then I bought a 220cc my wrong choice but I was not happy with it as I don't like to drive in speed and 220cc loves speed so I was not happy with it much in 8 months of 220cc bike with it I had a tough time with bajaj guys so to make my mind be ok I totally gave up bajaj and now coming back to honda. I don't was or u can put it this way around I don't trust any other company so unicorn is the only one left. I don't want to spend 1 lacks or above I sold my bike for 65000,rs PULSAR 220cc just putting in 4000rs more and getting unicorn. As I had unicorn as I have mentioned above.

          Hay guys how is red color I want a change this time.
          As my story is like this
          1 bike - PULSAR 150cc - blue color - 1 year
          2 bike - honda unicorn 1st warient - silver color 2.5 y
          3 bike - honda unicorn sports model - silver 2.5 y
          4 bike - PULSAR 180 ug4 - blue color - 2 years
          5 bike - PULSAR 220cc - blue color - 8 months
          6 bike - unicorn - red color - hope this is the end.

          • I am a wing rider again

            Hi friends I am back yahooo what a nice feeling after full strugle with bajaj I sold my bike and I just bought a brand new red peace honda cb unicorn for myself did 30 km ride on her and my entire 5 year court ship with unicorn was coming in my mind. In these past 2.8 years I must say honda has really improved on there vehicle.
            Wow it is fun to be back on her again. Shall be posting some snaps by tom. Hay guys I wanted to know which oil to use normal or xtra- premium or should I buy some additives and mix with normal petrol like system g or anything else as it is not safe to get only normal petrol filled. Well I have got filled 6.73 ltrs today for 500 rs from indian oil pump. Well rest the dam run in is on so I am busy completing it at the ealriest. Also since it has been long how is the engine oil 10w30 of honda. I mean in terms of gear movements and stuff like that also is it a mineral oil or synthetic oil. Can we fill 20w40 oil on our bike as I seriously want to put of moto 4 gold 20w40 as it is the best mineral oil for engine and the gears are also too good try it u guys will be really happy in my previous bike PULSAR 220 I was putting 20w50 moto 4 gold. There were reasons to sell PULSAR biggest thing was fuel. Big time and also learnt sooner or later the company is closing 220 for good so before they did I sold it and got free from it for ever from bajaj and I am back with honda.

                  No no I know that unicorn does not have a tubeless tyre but I got confused as the staff was in a delima that it has a tubeless tyre but I was the one who told them u have a wrong info as dazzler is the bike which has a tubeless tyres in it but unicorn does not.
                  But on of the person working there made me confuse as he said no sir it does come with tubeless tyre as in few bikes they have tubeless tyre I said what the he'll since which manufacture has started making tubeless tyre for front 2.75 18. As I have found mrf zapper for the rear tubeless in the market today for 2700 rs. But also learnt from other source that he is selling at a very high price as 100/90 18 comes for 2100 rs. And till date no body is making 2 75 18 for front in tubeless.

                    • Here is a small story my friends

                      Hi friends yes u heard it right guys I have bought peace for myself.
                      Well the story goes like this

                      As u all know I was riding a 220 well I was so dam fed up that I really wanted to give up biking for good. The guys at the service station they don't know there products them selves as they do trial and error work and as u all are aware 220 needs a real good time for itself if u wana keep it in a real good condition.
                      Plus for me biking is always been a safe ride like u can say sailing on a boat just for fun city riding or may be a 100 spin that's it. Well here my dad came to my rescue as when ever he used to call me I used to say I am in the work shop well he got so fed up that one day he said son sell the bike and I told him that dad we shall loose money on this and he said no problem just sell her as u r going bad going again and again going to the workshop every now and then well u can say it was my bad luck or good I don't know but I always respect what I have and love to keep it in a posh way I hope u can understand what I am saying. all these words are coming from my heart as a biker we respect our machines and love them like anything when something goes wrong in them we are like there is a blog in the brain that hay what happened to my baby guys seriously I had become mad trust me on this one.
                      Then coming back I have bought a brand new bike for my self honda unicorn a peace for my self I know coming down from a 220 to a 150 will sound odd I know but as I ride I don't go beyond 50 speed ever and I guess what ever u guys say or think of me I have bought peace for my self for good. Here are some snaps for u all my friends I hope u will feel the same good for me I have a trust on this one.
                      Thanks to all who support me and know me thank u

                          It seems your bike faced the same quality issues experienced by bajaj owners which give the pulsar a bad rep in reliability.When I was looking for 150cc bikes my friend who owns a pulsar advised me against it. And hence i settled on the Uni.

                          Your uni looks awesome in red! Where have you done that seat modification and is it comfortable than the stock seat?

                            Yeah thanks my dear and yes I had a tough time with bajaj on a 220f but never had so much of issues with 180 ug4. Never the less I was wanting to back to bajaj this time so I settled down with unicorn as I had her in my past 2 of them for 5 years and I trust this bike as I know everything about it too. So I bought her and I am very happy I have bought peace for my self.

                            For the seat yeah it looks good and very comfortable actually both a qution at the back and as well as front. Just that the back one is little bit more higher. I got it done from a road side shop here at Allahabad who is an expert with these seat covers. Nice finish also if I am not wrong
