    I will be coming back home in a few weeks. Let me see if I can stop at Thrissur and see. Thanks Vinbex.

    How much did it cost by the way?

    The bulbs over there had the 180* holders, so didn't buy. Have ordered two LEDs from amazon - supposed to be plug and play.
    Where exactly is the shop you bought it?

    Sorry, I dont remember the name. Did you try taking it to a local shop and asking for a similar one?

    Ninja uses a PHILIPS 12093 RY10W 12V bulb.. Not the usual one used for Indian bikes. The holders are 150 degrees apart rather than 180.

    I have heard thats Vespa's use the same bulbs. No luck online though. As of now my left back indicator is solid and left front is kaput when I use the indicator.

    kawasaki ninja starting problem

    i have a kawasaki ninja 250r and i have maintained it very well but after bajaj and kawasaki tied up broke things become a night mare as im from north east india. spares became a burden for me. the engine gave me a humming sound and a bajaj mechanic told me that it is cam chain tensioner problem. i called kawasaki kolkata nearest dealer from imphal for around three months about spares parts shipping the manager told met send a mail and i did and from that moment he did not answed my call. i complained kawasaki official website but no help. the bike is very weak to start in the morning but it runs fine after driving for 5mins what could be the problem. battery is new one. i find a manual cam chain tensioner in aliexpress for 250r should i install the manual one in my 250r.also is it because of the valves clearance the bike have starting problems

As you've said, there are no tech stuff, but everytime it revvs past 5k RPM, I forget all that! Still puts a smile on my face every single time.

    But consumables like chain\sprockets\tyres are pretty costly - and god forbid you crash.

    The equipment levels are also not as good as the Dominar (it is a newer bike after all) No ABS, fuel level indicator.
