      I am cleaning and lubing the chain by myself from now. SVC price is absurd.

      Well.. The DIY would require you to get a paddock stand.
      I am developing an economical paddock stand for the dukes. I am experimenting now. If all goes well, I would be able to make stands at a cheaper cost. Of course the end product would be looking more attractive. If you have any queries, please feel free to contact me.

      Rest is through practise.

          Can you please tell me how exactly this was done? I have bar ends and also hand guards. But somehow I felt that the handlebar to be short or the clutch lever to be longer.. Did you move the levers inward?

            I have the exact same bar ends attached to my bar but unfortunately, I am unable to take them out.. now I have the hand guards but unable to mount them.. May be next time.

                    Can you attach a photo of your handguards. I want one but 1000 inr! Doubt the quality. Are they good?

                        Well a few days back, I was riding hard on a bad road and for a moment the rear tyre lost grip because of the gravel and when the tyre got in contact with the road, she regained her grip.. I feel that the tyres are fine under 90kmph speeds..
                        Stock tyres are not that good when on bad/off roads.. IMO

                          Guys.. Can we use a 100/90 watt rating bulb on our katoom dook? I am using 55w crystal vision from Phillips.. When I compared the stock bulb's tube diameter with the Phillips one, the Phillips one was very small.. So that made me to think if the stock is really 55w or 100/90..

                              the stock is osram and yes it is a 55/60w bulb.
                              i wouldn't advice a 100/90w , so if you are not satisfied with the other offerings in the 55/60w rating.. you could plonk in an led. I've seen this h4 led bulb installed on [MENTION=51754]theironhorse99[/MENTION]'s cbr250 and the beam throw and lighting was just and the best part of it, since its a led the bulb wattage was just 20w ! The bulb though is expensive at around $40~$50.
                              Something like these:
                              H4 LED Headlight - ADVmonster
                              LED Headlight Bulbs

                                Thanks [MENTION=16602]s1d[/MENTION] will check that out ..
                                I actually had hid installed on mine but I also needed a charger so I had to chuck the bulky hid wiring the ballast and the relay harness as there was no space..
