Finally which bar ends did you use? Are there any vibration issues? -
Hello, I was going through older posts about upgrading to 150/60 rear tyres, but saw nothing conclusive about it being a problem with ABS. Could anyone share their experience/ two cents? I just changed to a set of Apollo Alpha H1s and there was no stock size for the rear. Is there anything that I should be mindful of?Comment

Absolutely none to worry about. The overall wheel diameter change is not significant enough to cause any trouble to the ABS calibration. In fact the rim size is of 4 inch which can easily accommodate a 150/60 tire.Originally posted by rahulpillai View Post

The girl said, 'NO!'
And the guy lived happily ever after and rode motorcycles and watched sport on a big screen TV, went fishing and surfing, and played golf a lot, and drank beer and scotch and had tons of money in the bank and left the toilet seat up and farted whenever he wanted.

edit: i just noticed that you mentioned you have already changed to a 'set' of apollo h1's !! do let us know you feedback after 10k km. they are grippy tires but will suffer from the squaring off that i have mentioned.Comment

Now I don't have to worry for next tyre upgrade. Right now my cbr has Michelin pilot street radial n they're working perfectly fine. Now they have run more than 25k n unfortunately same tyres r not available. So thinking to go for Apollo Alpha H1 but have confusion regarding their size.Originally posted by B7ACKTHORN View Post

Hi all, I’m also planning to replace the contigos on my ride with either Michelin psr or mrf. I had a noob question...how important is to get wheel balancing done while changing the tyre...One store I checked quoted 900 bucks for installation with wheel balance.Comment

Getting wheel balancing helps your wheel be dynamically balanced which helps the wheel weight be equal, you can do it yourself if you know how to do it or if you can't it's recommended to do wheel balancing, there are many simple ways to do it also and you can check it online for tutorials. I'd suggest you get your wheel balanced where you replace your tire, yes they charge approx 500 to 600 rupees for balancing. Little expensive, but goes a long way.Originally posted by Geetesh07 View Post

Hey Guys, My 2012 CBR brake light not glowing after pressing both front and rear brake pedal, bulb is ok as it is glowing when I switch on parking light or low beam. I'm sure both front and rear brake switch gone. Has anyone gone through such issueComment
-
remove the bulb and check, its a dual filament bulb. most likely the filament that lights up when you brake is shot.. with only the other filament working you see it light up when you switch on the lights. start of with a simple bulb replacement.Originally posted by Vishal Wagh View PostLast edited by s1d; 01-13-2021, 07:45 PM.Comment

The rear brake bulb is 21/5 watt one. The one that glows normally with headlights is 5w and when you press the brake the 21w lights up. Remove the bulb and you will have two filaments, check if any of the filament is bust, if it is bust, replace the bulb.Originally posted by Vishal Wagh View Post

Hey, I think you have not seen the video, it was front brake light switch fault, If it's repairable i go for it (it's simple to repair). I will upload photos if repair is successful. Or any how I need to replace it.Comment
-
Oh wonderful! I am not sure the front brake switch is repairable. It's a small pin type switch that once goes faulty is faulty, there can be exceptions if it's dust accumulation and a dab fo WD40 brings it back to life, but once faulty, it will eventually give up. I'd recommend a replacement of the switch, if the switch is faulty. Good luck.Originally posted by Vishal Wagh View Post

Repair done, brake switch working perfectly, just lil bit of polish and everything back to normal. Im sure their is no need to disassemble switch, WD40, kerosene or any other fuel overnight bath will remove dust and carbon deposition completely.
Youtube Video attached to understand how it is down. No need of complex soldering process as shown in the video.
