Now don't go beyond comparing further than two wheels do you,

?

Like i told you that day,there's a wonderful quote by Henri Ford on comparing the two,that is ,Ford Model T and the women.

Luckily for you ,i've forgotten it .

I did look about it on the net and haven't found it so far.

And by the way I checked for tacho near my house, it seems single isn't available any & the full classic pulsar metre assembly costs more than 1k

have you got any idea of fitting the Uni's tacho ? If yes then lets go ahead on that one what say ?

Yeah ,we'll do one thing,let's go to jc rd on our return from shivajinagar and see what kinda choice do we have.Then the HONDA showroom is nearby ,so we can inquire about the CB Stunner's tacho,the last time i had asked ,both were priced the same.

Another good thing is,it's a HONDA ,so it's bound to be accurate too.Satish and ZEN TVS ppl think the same too.

Aye Aye sir..

what about the classic cbz's tacho,or the whole speedo.The problem with the unicorns unit is its exposed from the bottom in due course of time dust tends to enter making the innards dirty,cbz has a complete sealed unit(had used a cbz speedo on my unicorn).

Gixer-yep silent spectator

PS-i had to change the ic inside the cbzs tacho as conked of the very first time i cranked the motor.
Unicorns unit is manufactured by JNS and the classic cbz's by pricol.

That is also a very good idea, will have to check if we can manage to get hold of one now.. One thing is for sure CBZ one;s will also cost a bomb like Uni's

frankly speaking I was thinking more on the lines of 150,200rs but now that dream looks to me a Bleak

Then again Our gixxer need something which shows more than 12k rpm since he has TCI Ignition & has no rev limited aka girl's father

With Tacho helps in lot of things, specially tuning & on sprocketing for taller or shorter gearing & the most important thing I like about tacho is when U rev hard the tacho going bonkers @ red line

That is something to crave for

If getting one from ASC or outside is difficult, you might get good amount only considering someone wants only CBZ tacho for his bike & not willing to take alternatives..

Yeah i know about that and that's why it needs a housing.With the additional cost of the housing it might become pricey.

The girl's dad? you met him right?

he stays at home now and doesn't follow her around.He's lost all hope of his girl being a good stock girl,now since i started riding her(took her virginity)

she's gained her independence and has dreams of performing like a porn star someday having lost all her inhibitions.

Seriously,yes ,she needs a 13 or 14k reading tacho.

the unicorn has a rubber sheet inserted in between the speedo and the stay,the whole assly gets safely tucked inside the fairing.Else another option would be to fix a visor(maybe from the fz or from the lml adreno(tough to find though)) or from the stock fiero,mounting on the stay could be a problem,for reference one can refer to howthe windcreen on the avy is mounted.

TCI/IDI is an Inductive discharge Ignition where the energy stored in the Ignition coil primary winding Inductance,... is discharged at the proper time to produce the spark.In CDI the available voltage of 200 to 300Volts AC(from stator coil) is rectified and stored in a capacitor to be discharged at the proper time.Alternatively If there is a DC supply available in the form of Battery,then it is used to generate 200 to 300 V through a step up switching circuit and then stored in a cap., to fire the Spark plug.
Using the Inductance of a coil means heavy DC current must flow to keep the charge alive...In cdi the step up voltage is stored in a Capacitor,and once the Charging is done VERY LITTLE CURRENT FLOWS..

Well when I had my Unicorn, my RR unit had conked off and the battery wasn't charging. And with the charge the battery already had, I could run easily entire day (while riding back from Kanyakumari to Bangalore) with rare usage of horn. So whats your take on it ?? I have a strong feeling that there is no step up circuit to power up the CDI.

Let me clear, Unicorn doesn't power the CDI from stator coil. Its a complete digital CDI which works only on battery current.

When I checked Pulsar Tacho was 900rs.

@shreeni-forgot to reply to your post its a 250 mx,clicked this pic around 7 yrs back.

Looking forward to modify my old horse.

Hello everyone............I too have a Fiero, it is with disc brakes and it was bought by my Dad in 2002.This Suzuki badged bike have disc brake and is without any electric starter.

Apart from this Fiero I also happen to possess the Suzuki Shogun and the new Suzuki GS150R.

From what I have collected is that Suzuki Fiero is a very much performance loving machine,it has acceleration and top speed better than its original rival,the CBZ.

Here is the picture of the mean machine parked in my house beside my current ride:

Though the Fiero has faded in looks over time, its engine is genuinely strong.
The new Apache RTR180 from TVS is said to have very similar engine configuration to that of Fiero and its performance impresses no doubt.

The highest top speed on the speedometer of my Fiero I have hit is 125kmph.

Now,since the TVS Apache 150 and the Apache RTR180 have similarly configured engines like that of a Fiero,
can a modification be carried out on the Apache 150 or the Fiero for that matter by introducing an Apache RTR180 bore kit into it ?????

Yes you can!!

It's the most common work done on fiero's here in bangalore,in fact it's so damn common that the owners don't even know that their ride is now 170 odd cc's.That's because the fiero bore kit costs about 3.2k,which is nearly 1k more than the price of a RTR 160/180 bore kit.

All you have to do is :

1. Get the engine-head to match the size of the new bore.That is the stock bore size of the fiero is 57mm. So depending on which bore you opt for.Which can be:
A. RTR 160 =62 mm.
B. RTR 180 = 62.5 mm.

2. Getting a bigger 29 mm carb of the pulsars(cheaper)

You can put either of RTR160 OR 180 BORE kit and both will get your bike to almost 180 cc's.

Our friend NANOtech has put a RTR 180 kit and so has Bprags.

The other option is to do what i've done to my fiero.Which is to put a Karizma piston with a new sleeve to take the cc to 195cc's and the piston top has been designed to get high compression(much higher than stock RTR's).

Then you can also do what i've done by putting the pulsar 220's piston to take the cc's of your bike to 205.

The choice is yours and we are here to help you.

@MACH50

The works i've gotten done on my bike needs lathe personnel who know what they are doing .So the better option is to go for the RTR bore kit.

The head matching and other works like valve recesses will be taken care of by any lathe.

Then you can also buy a used RTR engine head and with it you will get the RTR cam which will make the bike jump around.That is bottom end will increase,were as if you get the work done on your existing head ,then you will not find that shove in lower revs.

The other thing is,to go for the TCI ignition system of the RTR 180 which i've done and so has Bprags,this is the tech used in SBK's and it will be better than the CDI .It is cheap too,it costs 700 Rs and another 400 for the ignition coil.The other benefit will be that the rev-limiter won't be there.
