    I wish to go out on my Impulse too but waiting for it to clock 500+KMs so I can make it do what its meant to do.

    well instead of waiting 500km u can start using it more freely after 1st service which is after 750km and do change the engine oil at that time...

      I am using my Impulse regularly..as much as possible but within the speed limit of 45-49kmph at max.

      I got the oil changed at 300KMs, next change will b on 1st service - 700KMs.

            I got these for Rs.250/- I saw other knuckle guards for around Rs.2,500/- which I felt not worth to spend that much just for knuckle guards (good quality though).... I felt that these guards looks stylish

                Are you asking about the current guards which I have got or the guards which are of 2K?

                If you are asking about these guards, I fitted these without much effort as you have required screws with it only you need a washer for the right side guard.

                      Hey Guys,

                      Yesterday I noticed that my Impulse gave me the mileage of 61KMPL...now that's unbelievable but when I did the calculation,
                      it seems to be valid.


                      Dealer gave me 1+ ltr petrol in tank at the time of delivery, I rode 134Kms on that, brought it to NIL. Dragged my bike to petrol pump on empty tank, filled up petrol worth Rs. 500 (6.6Ltrs). It went on reserve (2.6Ltrs) with 383Kms on Odometer, so it means I drove 246Kms on 4ltrs. 246 divided by 4 = 61.5KMPL.

                      (380Kms -134Kms = 246Kms)

                      I drove at speed between 45-50KMPH and only within city. (SV road, Link Rd, downtown Mumbai).

                      Share ur inputs n advice about how to maintain the mileage.

                      Thanks & Regards,
                      Burnoutee

                        i dint understand this part of the maths u calculated...... - dealer gave u 1+ liter.... lets assume it was 2 liters. u rode for 134 kms in it. so 134 divided by 2 = 67 kms

                        (can u explain me this deeply plz)

                          Hi, there's a video on youtube of a guy with his green Impulse who has installed - K&N filter + Iridium sparkplug + Spitfire ignition cable.

                          Hi dragon_rider,

                          I just rode within speed limit of 50KMPH, I was so tempted to accelarate further to enjoy its smoothness...

                          Yes, I was so happy to do the math with such great result.

                          At the time of delivery, dealer said it has 1+ ltr of petrol, it was on reserve but he did not say its 2 ltrs (u know how they exaggerate if they give u something for free).
                          So I assume, he did not know how much petrol was there in tank n just said "1 litre se zyada hai". That's Y i did not worry about the mileage I got from the first fill by dealer.

                          Hope this clears ur doubt
