          I am the proud owner of Honda Unicorn, just 6 months old, i was confused between Unicorn and Pulsar 150/180/200 before i test drove and bought the Unicorn, i will never regret that decision .

            Good decision choosing and creating a thread for THE Honda Unicorn!

            It is a superb machine, no headaches (other than some MotoGP'ers and unscrupulous people), but for initial days, just be in limits, upto 1k, i.e. under 50kmph mark.. Keep it clean, i.e. wash-out mud/ sand, as often as possible.. otherwise, it might create rust.

                He brother (cyclone2k)... thanks for the advice . yes i am doing the same till date . its crossed 300 km and i have not even raised it once more than 45 km/h . its cool machine as you said .

                There used to be a Honda Unicorn ownership thread as well as a thread on Honda Unicorn mod jobs .It was very informative --- Mods any way we can recreate that , any xBhp members have it saved .. Please check out .

                        Nice picks

                        Yes as you said there was a Honda tread earlier , which was an inspiration for me to buy one . Now that we have lost that tread lets recreate it with new ideas / Old knowledge .

                        Heating issue / Wont say its too hot but dose get mild hot in a short distance

                        My Uni is just 350 km done and i have not raised the throttle more than 4K Rpm and have kept her well bellow 50 Km/H range . If i travell say around 10 to 15 km at a stretch i can feel a little heat on my lower right leg ( right side of the engine - Where the Oil cap is ) IS that normal . Uni has not even gone for her 1st service yet .

                        All uni owners ,

                        1 is it normal on a uni
                        2 if not what can be done

                        Thanks in advance for your upcoming advice

                          Well little heat is ok. But as you have not gone for 1st service as of now, i would suggest that you wait for 2nd service to get over. then you will be able to enjoy the real pleasure of riding a Unicorn.

                          Well mine is 32000 Km new. after lots of abuses it's time for a complete engine servicing.
                          I must say Unicorn is a no hastle bike. apart few expences i've never spent even a extra penny..

                            Thanks Bro

                            well was also thinking that same .. My fiero used to get hot as well . just wanted to reconfirm as have not used a UNI yet and its an ultra smooth engine . Don't want to mess the engine while on the run period .
