    Re: Honda Unicorn 160

    Hi basudeb, why don't you try ordering from amazon or flipkart. I bought motul 5100 10w30 from amazon... check if they can deliver at your place... i think you can use 10w40 when it is too hot over your place...but i am not sure of any effect. good or bad.

          I would stay away from Castrols, many fakes in the market

            4 services done .
            Present Engine oil : Motul 5100 4T 10W30 ( the gear shift has been best since then and low vibes at 85 kmph)
            After Purchase modification :
            Replaced stock bulb with Osram Head light bulb , silver star (HS1 12v 35W ) best available better than philips and bosch .tried both as i was desperate to lighten up my road ahead , now its great
            replaced the horns just for looks and some extra foam cushioning to seats
            Have done long rides upto 100 to 120 km stretch .

            Fuel economy : in city 51 - 52 , highways 48 kmpl .

            Next i want to experiment Motul 300 V 10W40 ( full synthetic ) as I feel my engine is slightly hotter than usual always.???
            and here the ambiance touches 40 deg C too .
            Hi thirlok.... What is the cost of osram head light bulb...??

                      Seems Good. Drove only 5-6 KM (Showroom - Home). Will take her on a ride this Saturday.

                      Yes and Mat is only available in Grey.

                      Unfortunately did not get the CBS Model. No Dealer/Sub Dealer had a CBS currently. They said its currently out of production.

                        I think the CBS model is still in production but due to higher price the dealers are not interested to keep it...
                        In my case also in pathankot they told me that this is not available in market but I told them that I will only take CBS model and if they can't provide me then I will choose other company bike....aftr that they bring only one CBS model from kangra, himachal, for me....the CBS works very good for new inexperienced bikers... I was feeling uncomfortable with normal bikes braking, was less confident, as I was a scooty rider( that has IBS, from hero)... with CBS I am feeling much more comfortable.

                          Hey,

                          I am repeatedly having problem with my front discs.

                          It just starts getting loose and does not brake properly every 500-600km. this is the second time I am having this issue after replacing the brake pads. The first tme went to the service center, he said some dirt was there and he had cleaned it, the brakes were fine after that. Now again it has started.

                          Can anyone help me figuring why this is happening ? Is this usual ?

                          --Nik

                            Maybe due to air in the line?

                              I did do brake bleeding a day back still the issue continues.

                              I am not sure if it is happening cos of the brake fluid change after the 3rd service. Unicorn came with the goldenish fluid, Now after the service he has changed it to a dark red one, When asked he said its Honda's own fluid.
                              I am not sure if its true r he has just put mineral oil ?

                                More likely to be a DOT-3 or DOT-4 brake fluid.
