      Congrats!!! Now, I guess you have learnt a lesson - be careful with pads when you give for service. Send a cautionary word with the supervisor there when you give for service.

            thats indeed great...stick to Nissin disc pads they are now costing 1050 in mumbai... dnt use unicorn or any other bike discpads...thats wat head mechanic at HH told us.. they said if unicorn disc pads could be used , we could have used xtreme or hunk disc pads as replacement as all 3 bikes..hunk, xtreme and unicorn run same kit....

              If you can't find 1 in mysore, come to Bangalore.
              In millenium motors, you will find it for sure.

              I may be going there tomorrow.
              I will get the exact price from them.
              Thanks a lot dude.. will visit Bangalore soon. i dont want my fuel stolen when i am touring and end up in a place with no pumps :/ its always been a nightmare for me as i ride solo.

                my master cylinder is screwed and the geninue kit costs 1100 rs . i was wondering if i could change the whole part to apache's . will i get the same gradual feel of the geniuine nissin cylinder?
                UPDATE:
                Since no one replied to the above message ive bought the apache rtr kit which costs 260. all the items are same except for the push rod and the circlip. i still feel the the brake travel is a bit more, perhaps air has gotten in the system ?

                Ps: i need to know if the ss braided line of the 220's is of the same length as that of stock lines and its cost.

                • Any pictures of the RTR kit? My Master cylinder is also screwed and is rusting inside thanks to the SVC jerks when i gave my bike for the last service.
                  What do I intend to do? Stuff ZMR drivetrain into an Ambition chassis and watch others run scared!

                        buddy, i fitted the kit,but go ahead and buy one.the kit includes:
                        1. a diaphram
                        2. a sightglass & its washer.
                        3. front and the back seal.
                        4. push rod and the spring
                        5. circlip.
                        6. dust cover &
                        7. a smalll clip which fits on the bottom of the reservoir.

                        i just used the spring ,seals and the dust cover.the push rod is a bit too long in height but i suppose if we could file the place where the spring fits it would be of the same .do retain your old pushrod and the circlip and wet the seals with brake fliud before fitting the push rod in the cylinder.

                          • After around 200kms night ride yesterday, and some amazing pot holes my Karizma's front alloy is bent
                            Can any one help me if there is a possibility of getting the alloy fixed?

                            And if replacing the alloy with a new one is the only solution, what might be the price of a new alloy wheel ...

                              Alloy got bent?? Then I need to check mine. Though I could escape many potholes, I too hit potholes numerous times. Thats one hell of a ride that we will not forget.

                              If it is minor, take it to ranigunj. If repair is not possible, then you might have to spend around 4200. You can claim insurance too.

                                The bent is not that major...
                                I can still ride my bike with out much trouble..
                                But the handle starts vibrating rigorously when I leave it at a speed of 80-90.

                                Where exactly in Ranigunj can I get this job done???
