    It looks cooler and will paint the handle bar black as the stock comes with no color. . . It's for short period of time, if I don't like it will get back to my Shogun handle as its very very good. . . I'll just see if the new handle fits to my need properly or else change it again. . .

      Personally I didn't like these much, they look too bulky, if the cbz ones fit I'll install that.

        [MENTION=42743]sinnerz2000[/MENTION] I like something bulkier like this so as to it gives more masculine sought of look for the bike though and also the heavier it is, the handler it will be. . . Will check about CBZ extreme's handle bars and get back to you. . . I personally think this will suit Unicorn nicely and make it noticeable. . .

          Yea cool. And change the foot sets of the bike too so it will give u a sporty riding position. U can use the karizma foot sets or the hunks, they fit directly on the bike.!

            Have you done it? 'cos its not just the footpegs, but you have to change the shift gear lever and brake lever to suit the new settings.

              [MENTION=42743]sinnerz2000[/MENTION], Really do those of the Karizma's foot pegs fits to mine directly without any alteration, then certainly I will put those as I would like it to be more sportier. . . Please post a pic if you have or seen one so that it can be helpful and I will post the pics as soon as I do those for my bikes. . . Thanks for the info. . .

              ya that's true, we need to change the shift gear lever and the brake lever as well to make it look like a perfect sports bike. . .

                  Guys need your suggestion regarding the tire for my Honda Unicorn. . . I presently am driving with 3.00 - 18 rear tire, thinking of changing the tires to 100/90-18 and also saw a guy who has fit 120 or 130 /80-16 which makes the bike look cool, what are your inputs on this. . ? Should I go with the stock ones or change to 16" tires, do post the pros and cons of the 16" tire. . .

                    Don't go for 16", ull gain acceleration but ull loose top speed and since the bike height reduces u will loose stability also, and a bigger Tyre than 110 is an overkill for the uni.

                        ^^ Zapper Vyde is a good tyre but tread wear is quite faster than the Q. Vyde is a softer compound than Q and hence this.
                        But both tyres are really good.

                          Vyde and q are both made for only tarmac riding, go for a dual purpose Tyre like meteor or Dirac street for Indian roads.

                            [MENTION=42743]sinnerz2000[/MENTION] But I just love these kind of tires over those dual purpose tires as the road I travel daily is very good and I don't think I need such kind of a tire presently, will consider on the later stages, what I want is the best in these two tires, I need for good cornering and should have a smooth ride as well. . . Vyde seems awesome, what is your views on it. . ?

                              Then go for vyde if its available in 100/90, and yes you have to change the whole thing marked in green, which will cost u atleast 3k, coz u have to buy the footpegs, the footsets (the silver piece holding the footpegs), brake and gear shift levers and their mechanical parts.

                              • Change of handle bar

                                Hi friends it is so hard to select a good handle bar for cb unicorn since the new tank and the front cowl is creating so much of problem in changing it.
                                Well give some suggestions friends and also if possible if any one can share a snap of the same it will be real big help.

                                How about putting a 3 peace handle bar is it possible?
