    They are the worst of all... Total soft compound. Gets punctured easily.

    Re: Hero Impulse ownership experience

    Hello all,

    after a month i dragged my Impulse out of the parking this morning. Had a crash last month since then bike was left unused.
    the damage was done. My front wheel was out previously but now after the impact the front rotor disc is now bent.
    after I pulled the lever, the lever moved to and fro during braking.

    results rotor is bent.

    Does anyone know where I can get the stock front rotor disc here in Pune or Mumbai?

    Or

    is there any alternative for this like Hunk or Xtreme spare parts that can be direct fit on the impulse?

    Suggestions are welcome.

    TIA.

    None of the stock motorcycles come with a flat slide as its for performance oriented use.

    If you're thinking of keeping it stock go for a Bajaj carb that matches your Venturi size and then swap the jets if they're not already jetted the same.

    If you would like to get into modding then you could source round slides OEM from Royal Enfield and replica round/flat slides from Aliexpress.

    IIRC Someone on this thread had already tuned a flat slide on his Impulse.

    Or you could even give round slide VM carburetors a shot, the VM28 costs under 1.5k

    Piston is available as a spare part.

    On this thread I collected somewhere that cbz carb is direct fit.

    Thanks man.
    Yes height increase is due to unicorn monoshock.
    Actually both the shocks are of almost same height but unicorn shock doesn't settle down like the impulse shock when I sit on the bike. The spring is very stiff compared to stock.
    Previously with impulse shock suspension used to settle down as soon as bike was off the side stand. But now suspension doesn't settle even after sitting with a pillon. That's the main issue.
    I'll post the details as soon as I finish making questions for upcoming exams.
