Met Prem today to check his bike. I found the following

1. Tappet noise
2. Petrol tank leak and dark brown spark plug - causing drop in economy.
3. Oil leak from head- could'nt find the exact location.
4. Battery low- self start not working and trip meter resetting.
5. Break switch not working.

His back tyre was flat so couldn't test ride

. All these found on visual inspection.

thanks dude for putting up my issue.
One more problem is that the neutral light won't work.
Pls help me on this.

Either neutral connector stub or Neutral contact plate inside gear box will be causing loose contact..while the neutral stub is simple to replace from outside, the contact plate replacement will need splitting of crankcase ..take time to read from Page 1000 till now..

And can you please weigh it and post its exact weight...

The kicker woud've been way easier to use if the choke lever would've stayed in place instead of retrieving.

Not sure what you mean by stopper. I have removed chain cover and sari guard as well. Quiet heavy all together I should add, though can't say exactly how much. I'll try to post the weight some other day as i've stored them away and in no mood to take them out just now.

You better get a relay ASAP . Otherwise you might get problems with your switch (carbon deposits ) as well as wiring ( over load problems ) . Also , the brightness is much better with the relay and it doesn't cost a bomb !

I'd used a 55/60 without a relay in the past but am using a relay now . There is a difference in the light but the main thing is I've got peace of mind regarding the H/L now .

new pilot lamps for karizma..!!

guys changed the pilot lamps to super white LED bulbs ... 20rs each

attaching some pics of my bike...though they are looking bluish but believe me in reality they are bright white(like the audi lamps

) ....i think its because of highly sensitive camera sensor...well have look at it..i love xbhp

thank you sir for replying and your suggestion...i was told by my mechanic that karizma's wiring is the Best....so i opened the fairing and put the bulb directly...and rode 3500+km till now including long trips like Lonavla to Goa.but it is always good to have peace of mind while riding long trips...i'll definitely put a relay ...can you tell me the procedure or diagram for it...anything is welcome...thanx in advance

The thing to which the kich starter rod is attached to, its cause of that the kick lever's movable.

The ZMA flasher is mechanical and dependent on load..
If a good and dependable flashing is required then switch to Electronic flasher unit like in Splendor etc.,

Ive done it..I am currently using a splendor's flasher and 10w amber bulbs in all the indicators of my zma.Even I faced the same delay in blinking of the indicators before. Once I swapped the stock flasher (indicator relay) with a splendor's one the indicators starts to glow as soon as i press the switch..

No. Removed only the kicker.

The mechanic at SC told me a plate inside the Engine has been broken. It is required for indicating the neutral at console. So, he has to open the engine and keep the ZMA at SC for atleast 4 days. My ZMA's engine is 18,690 kms old. I didnt want to open the engine at this stage. Issliye maine mana kar diya.

My only problem was, bike wasnt starting at applying self in neutral. From now I have to use the Clutch in this process. Otherwise the bike is all good.

PSR sir, thank you for all the help and Pictures!

I appreciate it.

Coolios. Thanks for the reply mate. Few questions here.
So the Splendor's relay is a direct fit, Any specific model of Splendor(like ++)

Is it a plug & play job(meaning removing the old flasher & plolnking in the Splendor's flasher)?

help regarding paper sticker removal....

yesterday i gave my bike for servicing and what i saw was a paper sticker on rear mudguard

even after telling so many times they put that sticker having their name on it

i dont like anything on my bike like stickers or graphity...when i talked about this with service manager he said that washing guy did it

and then W guy said he didnt know because nobody told him to not to do so

they started blaming each other

....finally they came with the solution that it wont happen again and they will remove it using blade..i refused their idea as blade can cause some scratches on plastic

guys i am very much confused how to remove it completely

without scratches it is a paper sticker please help!!!!!
