Hi I'm not looking for bulb change since what ever done in that y shape head light unit may not yield well, I'm looking for two small auxiliary unit that can be fitted on handle bar. I've seen this mode on a 200ns but could not check properly.

Ohh is that so! Still I would like to give it a try at ABC. Please post the pics and wiring setup if someone installs auxiliary lights

Depends upon which light you are opting to.

Type 1: Halogen Bulb. Better and brighter bulbs are available than the stock (Phoenix/Life) ones. This wouldn't affect the warranty too.

Type 2: HID/LED bulbs or projectors. If you have this in your mind, hid is the best in case of brightness. Led can not match hid's brightness. A 35w hid can produce brightness which is equivalent to 130w rally bulb. But you have to choose the right kit. And yes. Wiring kit warranty will void.

Thank you Zeit for this information! 👍
Can we get this done in SVC? I purchased Honda shield for total 5 years, so don't want to ruin it.

Can we get portable auxillary headlights which have their own power source and can be removed before after ride?

Clean the chain with WD40 or kerosene. This has worked in my friend's Dazzler.

CbR250 also has rust, don't worry. Get the parts painted, or do some touch up yourself. As for chain, just lube it. Don't replace the chain!

That hurts... take care.
In my area also people would park their bikes very near to my bike, almost touching. But due to parking cover, nothing happened.

Later on I confronted them, took photos. Requested them to park with some space in between, better for all. 😎

Mine is also catching rust.
What you can do is quick wash bike with water so that mud goes away. Keep on lubricating chain yourself.

Does this rusting happen on all bikes? Mainly in case of Gixxer, FZ, etc?
If it only happens with Honda then it's serious build issue. 😑😐
