      Throttle is kind of okay in Bengaluru climate, it's better than Honda mineral water.
      You don't need 20W50 on CD100, unless you plan on revving it really hard. 20W40 is just fine. It works perfectly on my dad's CD100 & my Splendor Pro.

        Have you used bajaj 10w 30 oil recommended for platina, how's it.

          Did you get it local shop?
          I saw online the price is around $25 on official site. I thought price is fair on Flipkart.

            On 20w40, the engine heats up quite a lot. Plus it's old (factory borekit done 1L+ ), so went for 20w50 as the clearances would've increased.

            The bike feels much smoother and vibrates much lesser with 20w50.

                    Show it to honda svc. We can't suggest anything without seeing the bike. Have you checked air filter, check carburetor setting too, also check whether acceleration cable is jamm or not,also observe clutch freeplay, and clutch setting.
                    Also drain the existing petrol from your tank, clean it and put fresh petrol [emoji618]

                      What kind of jerking? Can you explain with some details?

                      By jerking you refer to vibrations or something like stalling?

                      Moreover, you should get the carb checked.

                        Oh! Didn't realise it's an old factory borekit. Thought those weren't used anymore. They were used in first gen CD100 which actually had a 1L engine.

                          Yeah it's now nearly 25 years old. Bore, piston, valves are all stock and untouched. Only things changed are the timing chain and the clutch pack.

                            My dad also had a 1987 silver model CD100. Too bad I don't have any colored pics of it. It was there with us till 2005 and had the 1L engine. Thing had a top speed of 85+ kmph without any issues.

                                Senior would guide you better, wait for their reply.

                                Send an email to Honda, telling all the detail of the problem and that you've been to ASC twice, but problem is not fixed.
