It was told to me by the HMSI person. This same event had happened in Hyderabad also last week.

Welcome to the club mate!!!

Pdi list for cbr.

Which type of help, you need address of dealer where part is available or want someone to buy?

Is it yours? :O
or you are just keep googling these images, :P

I have as i have to park in open (now using the rjays cover also, to avoid unwanted things). Here you go:
Xenos

no its not mine. copied from facebook

Does this require battery rewiring etc or is it simply plug & play?
Edit - Just noticed the website, it looks like the unit has to be installed on the bike & I guess there's some amount of rewiring etc to be done.

Anyday, I'd prefer - XENA Motorcycle Security: disc-lock alarms for motorcycles, scooters and ATVS which doesn't voids warranty, no install required & simply easy to use on any motorcycle.

Replies in BOLD

Finally , Honda is hearing the voice of their life !

Finally they arrived? Who
Anyway, I'd a hear of what to expect tomorrow, but, I'd rather like to see in pics; pls share the pics when you're there tomorrow. I might drop in there by evening, if my work is over.

I meant Honda organizing in a deserted place like Chennai

I will take pics for sure and post them here ..

Post second service update

In lieu of the track day/cbr camp happening tomorrow, I decided to go get my second service done at 4903 kms. I went to Didar T nagar, and I would rate this service center with 5 stars. Excellent reception and workmanship.

They got rid of all the niggles I had, not like I had many, but still. This is going to be of interest to aargee,

As I mentioned earlier, my bike just wouldn't pull beyond 8.5k rpm in the 6th gear, slope/full crouch /shift at 10.5k rpm, nothing seemed to work, THe needle would magically settle at 8.5k rpm, and like a leech wouldn't move from there. I mentioned this issue prior to the service,and as expected they were absolutely clueless, still to pacify me they said they will take care of it,(i had little or no hopes of it being rectified. I was going to write to Honda post the service). I had instructed them clearly to put 20w40 and nothing else, 20w40 i repeated twice. Post the service, just for clarification I asked which grade oil they put in, with a wide grin he replied 10w30 sir. I felt like slapping him right across his face, but cajoled myself saying, its alright I will check it out and change it after 2k kms if i am not satisfied. I didnot want lose the good rapport I had with the ASC,when this could be an opportunity to learn and experiment. So i said its alright and took the delivery.

So i went to check the top speed of bike today and magically it can climb beyond 8.5k rpm. I dont say it was easy and cake walk, but it did, it was slowly dragging its lazy ass upto 9k rpm and beyond when i had to slow down because of the traffic.

Disclaimer for everything that follows here on :- I am an utter noob and I could be completely wrong when I am saying this, But my personal feeling is that the 6th gear issue had something to do with the grade of oil being used. 10w30 i feel somehow made the engine work harder :P . Because I was there when my bike was being serviced and they touched absolutely nothing related to the engine, except changing the engine oil. So aargee, why dont you change to 10w30 as well and try to check out your top speed in 6th gear.

They also painted my damaged grab rails, the paint just started peeling off on its own, they tried charging me for it, I said i will pay you now, but I will see to it that I will get it refunded from Honda at any cost as it wasn't due to my negligence or because of an accident. It was a manufacturing defect. He said ok, and fitted them back. When i was about to pay, he said "its ok sir, its ok". I guess they are afraid of the big boss . All in all i am more than satisfied with the way the bike performed today. I am going to set the suspension to hardest as I noticed when i was cornering at 140's i could feel the suspension contracting and expanding.

Sai boss you coming tommorow ??? Please PM me if you are... we could meet up ! and also to chennaites ... The dealer called me again for the confirmation ... and I asked him yet again " what exactly it is " ... He said camp , lunch and some A/C CAB ! @ arrgee I would like to inform you that Honda as informed all the dealers ( guess chennai ) to choose 10 owners for EACH dealer to be present there for the event .. Kindly contact your dealer regarding this ...

He also advised me to wear shoes and bring the helmet ... Felt like a school kid for the reminder !

Tks & certainly its a point to think about


Where? I mean which road? And are you saying you did more than 9K RPM on 6th?

Mine ALSO does the same; it moves above 8.5K RPM, but at snail pace.

Well, there will not be a pull in 6th gear because its over drive.

Well, the oil theory on 10W-30 says that, the viscosity of the oil doesn't change as long as the outside temp stays at 30 degree. Which means, the oil can do its job when the temp is 30. Now, does Chennai have 30 degree even in Winter? I don't think so; this is one of the reason why I hesitate to switch from 20W-40.

Don't!!! I switched to one step from softest & I'm missing the "Volvo" effect; it isn't that comfortable as softest setting.

Got my rear disk pads replaced with New Pulsar 220's disk pads.

Disk pads from Bajaj: Rs. 196/-
Labor charge by Honda: Rs. 88/-

CBR Hibernation Mode OFF

WTH!!! Are you serious??? Last evening I was being told that C250R's brake pads are unique & parts cannot be shared!!! Now this is another reliable info!!!

Appreciate for one more information...is P220's ORing chain compatible with C250R's?

i have alredy confirmed this but that time you said shit bajaj.
