Your link had a review to just the filter so its natural to assume what I assumed!

But I checked this ( http://india.cosworth.com/products/p...takes-(india)/) and I cannot see anything for bikes there!

All their website speaks about is air filters --> http://india.cosworth.com/products/p...lters-(india)/


Now, if you have some other non-public information well then don't blame me for pointing out 'No CAI'!

Arre not blaming you guruji.. This was posted on the http://www.xbhp.com/talkies/news/196...now-india.html thread!

After my bikes electrical issues I found time to give it to service only last week. Since starting the bike was not an option without the electrics working called chennai PBK and asked them to come and pick up the bike. After a day I call them to know the status, they advice me to convert the bike to a carb one that would cost me 10k! I was like WTH! I told them to check what was wrong on the bike and rectify it rather than advising me crap!

A friend of mine had issues with his Fi unit and requires it to be replaced. Same was advised to him to convert the bike to a carb one! Seems the Fi units are not available off the shelves , according to the chennai PBK only 5-6 units are shipped to the service centers once in every 3 months.

Signs of troubles with a phased out bike??

And the difference between RC1060 and RC1100 is?

Oh... But does the size difference have any impact on the performance..???

Is upjetting really necessary if the free flow air filter is installed...?? Any problems if it is not done...??

Hey fellow 220 owners I have recently encountered a problem with my bike. I went on a tour covering 1800 kms with rains and mostly under hot sun! My bike crossed 40k kms in the tour.

60 kms before my home bike stalled completely. I was actually overtaking a mini truck on the ECR when the bike's electricals died . I lost the power while overtaking but somehow managed to bring the bike to halt on the road side. It was in the evening around 30 PM and bike had headlights on . Battery's are less than a year old and had the bike serviced before the ride from Auto Service Bangalore. Called Praful after the incident and he advised to me check for blown fuses. Fuses were fine. I made sure there were no loose connections in the wires so meddled with them and tried my luck. The bike started but had the low battery indicator on. So used only pilot lamp and avoided horn/headlight/indicators and was escorted by my fellow riders to my home safe.

The next day I tried to switch on the bike, there was no self check nothing after I turned on the ignition. Battery seemed to have died completely. But I still suspect some loose connection or some issue with the wiring somewhere as randomly the self check happens but bike doesn't start. I will be towing it to PBK this weekend. Before that wanted to know what should be checked and what could have gone wrong. Bike has everything in stock.

Looks like a battery going bad issue only. At the probiking, don't let them just go ahead and charge the battery. They should have a battery tester with them. Also, do check if some sensor has gone bad. I had similar issues with my roll over sensor going kaput (have changed it atleast 6 times in 56k km of riding)
Also, check for any white deposits on the relay (facing your battery, it will be on top right - a plug like thing. Clean it with petrol and see if things are better)
Worst case scenario: Wiring harness is going bad. Makes sense to get it changed if this becomes a recurring problem (I know many guys who have got it changed at some stage or the other. Cost is approx 2.5k)

I think they are just being lazy and not trying to figure out what the issue with the bike is.

Ofcourse the ECU is not available off the shelf, I am yet to come across someone with a failed ECU. There were a few ECU replacements done in the initial few days but thats about it. And I'm pretty sure there isn't any issue with your Fi system

Worst case scenario the fuel pump has failed! But I cant say for sure as I don't know what is the issue with your bike.

There is another option to transport your bike AutoService BLR.

That's a temp solution. Would recommend getting the entire wiring harness replaced when you feel okay to spend about 2.7K for it.

Peace of mind is assured only then

But you can hold on for another 10-15K kms

PS: Din't you move to BLR?

Okay who wants to see my huge service bill See the attached image for details The part description is picked up from the service bill directly.

NOTE: This kind of a service in necessarily required to be done, but I had done a lot part replacements as a proactive measure! Got my bike back yesterday after it was at PBK for almost a week.

Key Parts Changed:-

1. Bore Piston Kit - This was unexpected, but there was a bit scoring on the cylinder walls and if I continued using the existing bore-piston somewhere down the road, major oil drinking would have started. So got that replaced, and for the Fi also now the bore-piston kit is the graphite coated like on the 220 Dts-i. So running in the bike easily this time, no motoman business!
