          • it is like filter ->blower->carb . No feed back from engine , using a after market air blower or hair dryer for this... any body tried.

            one guy here asking for airscoops and wanted to route it to filter for more compressed air.. how is it?

              bro,i know abt the electronic blowers for cars which are the cheap a$$ alternatives for turbos and superchargers.. but for bikes ??????

              and abt the air scoops,i dont think u get compressed air out of it but rather cool air which will be denser than the air near the hot engine...
              i think he was refering to cold air intake which is famous in cars with after market filters (i did some of the installations on swift)...

                don't ever do that
                u can screw up wid d handling of d bike
                get used to it and soon u will feel its d best handle on a bike in india as far as riding pleasure and comfort is concerned (i knw its not sporty at all bt it complements d characterisitics of mono-suspension)

                i will bet my money on that...i have been using my uni since 3yrs and have ridden 60k kms...never in its life time returned more than 51kmpl and its avg is 44kmpl consistent...

                cpr 9ea-9 jus has a bettr heat range which provides better ignition under continuous high speed riding...
                well u did not mentioned ur riding style
                9ea9-9 - yeah i confused d extended high speed wid extended top speed so i purchased dis plug , 4 me dis plug sucks
                n cum on mman mention ur riding style during mileage inspection period.(if ur rides are smaal small 1 u definitely deserves dat meliage, try a bit longer rides n c d difference is just dat great)
                The Automotive batteries are designed to work best in a typical short start-stop fashion.
                So to increase the life of your automobile battery, blow the horn and flash the pass light in a quick start stop fashion instead of a conitnuous long horn blow or flash light continuous on!!
                And obviously don't stretch the self start far too long.

                          how far do you agree with honda's claims for the 0-60 kmph in 5 seconds

                          or is it another typing mistake?
                          Hope is a good thing ,

                            first of all ur bike must be a well maintained 1 with engine operating at its peak performance
                            after dat also , u need 2 b very skilled to work-out a speed dat fast
                            changing d gears at optimum speed range( which nobody knws)
                            u must not take more den .35 seconds per gear change
                            after engaging d gear , u must release d clutch gradually while opening d throttle gradually simultaneously
                            try racing wid another unicorn guy
                            most probably only 1 cud win
                            its just because of better gear shift n clutch release
                            people at overdrive magazine has done 0-60 on uni in just 4.67 seconds
                            even i dn't knw d right skill 2 do it
                            bt as m doing , i takes a lot of practice
                            further discussion wud b out of d scope of dis thread

                                all i wanted 2 say is yes it is possible
                                u need 2 be skilled enough 2 do it
                                its nt dat ne1 cud get 0-60 in 5 secs
                                people who have developed dat engine has themselves tested their engine performace
                                sum 1 who knws d engine well only, cn get d max. juice out of it.
                                n its nt like dat only books hv a scope limit , even dis thread hs sum limits or it will b'cum a "how to ride a bike" tution , for e.g. even dis site is limited to bikes only. talking about cars is out of d scope of dis site ! !
