    Just rotate the rear wheel and check whether all the teeth edges of that rear sprocket is intact. Mostly the edges gets cut and become blunt due to the usage. Your 9k km won't warrant replacement of chain and sprocket this quick, until unless you handled your bike very roughly. In my case,when I saw for the first time one or two edges got chewed slightly, I just continued riding normally. After some 3k to 5k kms running 5 to 7 teeth edges became blunt. In that condition I got much more vibrations in bike mainly in handlebar. Then my average mileage got reduced say some 4-5kms (during this I mostly ridden in city conditions). So immediately then I got it replaced, two sprockets and chain. It costed me approximately 1600 I think, so please double check with your service center. For you One or two edges getting chewed slightly won't matter(IMO), so continue riding without worrying.
    thanks Bro

      hi,

      I would like to clean my spark plugs, since i've been experiencing delays during ignition.
      So watched one Youtube video, where they remove the cylinder and then removing the plugs and cleaning them.

      do this can only be done by removing the tank ? no other ways ?

      [PS - I really want to do it myself. so if anyone has done this before, please mention what all should i check and inspect before removing the tank ...]

          One query :
          Since your bike (or electra or std 500) are carbed version. Can you guys kickstart your bike when the battery is dead?

              Can a 5.4 person ride it. Yes why not. I have a friend who is almost that height and has a 350. Actually he may even be a bit shorter than 5.4. both his feet dont touch ground solidly (toes and heel together). But he has enough practice to manage the bike; while idle, in bad road conditions, with pillion, and with one leg when needed ( to kick start, to brake and go inch by inch in traffic jams, to engage/disengage kick stand).

              So the the question, Can you, has an assertive answer. Would you be able to do so, Now that is a question which can only be answered after getting a feel of the bike, yourself!

                I found difficult to sit on classic 350.
                May be I was on formals and pant was really tight enough.
                I cant keep both toes and heel. , toes of both legs touch ground. But can't land as on other bike.



                Showroom Guy told it's new bike will take time to adjust ur ride.
                I have travelled in my friends bullet I was comfortable to keep both legs .. now why I am not able in new bike

                      It's not about how hard you get hit... It's about how hard you get hit and just keep moving forward.

                      Your story may not have such a happy beginning... But that doesn't make you who you are... It is the rest of your story... Who you chose to be.

                        Hi all, Im a 5'7" rider and i currently own a honda and clocked over 28k in it. I'd like to buy a new bike and as far as my rides were concerned im very much into a comfortable bike both for me and the pillion. I had plans of buying the classic 350 as im a college goer and standard doesnt suit me currently ( nor does she like it) i had thought of it as a comfortable bike for my needs based on my short rides on it. A few days back i rode the classic for almost the whole day covering roughly 100 kms with pillion and man it is so not comfortable i couldn't sit on the floor as my tailbone would hurt. I even got a blister on my hand so it is my most humble request to everyone to let me know what are my options as a comfortable bike and i was keen on the thunderbird too but is out of budget slightly more than classic so please help me.?

                          Hello Bulleteers..!! I have come for my friend's query in his Bullet! He is complaining that his bike is totally wobbling a lot even in 40km/hr! He is not able to find out the cause for it.. He has even checked the wheel alignment and tightened the fork nuts and bolts.. But only for 20days it was fine and again the problem started to wobble again! I drove it for a while and I suspect the fork is very loose! So please throw some light on this brothers..!!

                            The Standard's and Thunderbird's seats are more comfortable than that of the classics.
                            if seating comfort is your priority, you can go for avenger 220 as per my opinion. proper cruiser posture without much budget..

                                Dont use the words PDI. Tell them you want to check the bike and ensure its up to your satisfaction before you sign on any papers.

                                When you go to collect your bike, they will first try to seat you down and make you sign a bunch of papers. DONT SIGN any paper unless you see the bike. Be friendly, tell them you are too excited to see the bike and just want to see it first.

                                Unless the bike has been driven a lot and the tyres have softened. Get the fork/steering looked at. Check the handle for unusual tightness/stickiness/Spongy feeling when it is completely turned to its extreme right/left which could indicate problems.
