        Those are not the original IND no. plates, thats if you wanted them.
        But for 350 you would have got the original ones.

            The silver is not stickering its the plate behind the sticker reflecting. The font is not plain black,I told him to print the font in IND sticker used to create border in IND plates. Its not clear in the Pic.

              • Today i saw a crack(nearly 1cm in size) in the front mudgard near the bolt (used for mounting the mudgard) i think it could have been due to the pathole. Has anyone notice this in their ride and will the crack increase and is their any solution for geting the crack fixed and it does not increase.

                • Engine Oil Leaks

                  Today when I was canging the clutch cable, I noticed oil near the area where the clutch cable joins the engine. I have highlighted the area inthe pic below (got the picture off the net). The amount of oil is very little.. almost negligible and I checked the oil level, it seems to be okay. Any idea if this is normal or a problem that I'll need to address in the near future.
                  You start the game with a full pot o' luck and an empty pot o' experience... The object is to fill the pot of experience before you empty the pot of luck.

                    Yes, it is normal. Maybe due to the lubrication of the joint present there. Keep that joint well lubricated 'cause metal-cable(clutch) wear happens to be there whenever you press the clutch.

                      Might be the oil used for lubing the clutch cable.

                      Got my bike today,they messed up the accelerator cable settings,and electrical wires,i had fixed the wires,but the problem is I cannot set idle rpm now,its nearly 2k,the idle speed adjusting nob is not touching the carb thing.
                      and both the cables have free play a bit.Oil seen there is oil used to lube the accelerator cable.

                      Pic included.


                      The problem was,Choke was in ON position,Offed it and problem solved.

Would it be a direct fit in the zma fork bottoms? I dont want extra travel but want to stop the damn headlamp from hitting the mudguard all the time. I am heavy boned!
                          Sorry to bring this up again but would anyone have details on this? The HH guys dont quite like giving out details as they know i do the work myself. They loose out on labour charges that way!

                              The place you have pointed out is the clutch actuating lever....there is an oil seal in place to stop oil leak..I think in your bike this oil seal had perished ..how many Kms on ODO, oil used, and change interval..?

                              Your " A " cable seems to be set tight without slack ..Get it right or your cable will fail ..

                                Yes,I guessed it wrong,I thought he was talking about the clutch adjusting bolt. The oil seal is the culprit.

                                Get it right? Sir can you explain it more clearly.
