    anybody in kol knows any1 who can simply do it or have done it before maybe in chandni and what will be a the price for amaron 9 amp and exide 7 amp as my friend quoted me 950 for exide and 1450 for amaron 9amp.
    Well there are lot of users who have done so link me to the best guide to follow these ppl in kol are dumb to many excuses as this cant be done or aneesh guide is good to go as I need to make these dumbo understand how to do it.
    why are you making new cage?? Is old zma's cage not available there??

      pilot lamps come in various sizes....to be specific see the picture of your order and go for it...... as i dont know the nomenclature of pilot bulbs i cant tell you exactly but see the picture below these type of bulb fits for karizma


      if you want to check and measure the size in mm by removing fairing then bro it is 5mins job but i'll recommend you to measure size on any stock pilot bulb.....................!!!

            well after going with hh oil it sucks big time for me need to test motul and gulf asap as the gears is harder then before and to worsen things yesterday my bike did not start using choke in morning so found the battery was the culprit and to add on a my bike was parked and a guy was playing the fool with the acceleration stuff and broke one of my cable and even made my bike humpty dumpty so a small dent on silencer.
            though they picked the bike but when i blamed him for touching my accelreation stuff he simply ignored and there was quite nice exchange of words and some little bit of pushing and punching.
            A very bad day for me yesterday

              Aneesh's tutorial is much easier and self explanatory. Your 2008 model makes it even more easier. If you can understand what is given in the tutorial then take a plunge into DIY.

                Dumb friends right??? Been facing the same for a while.
                When I tell'em not to do something, they just talk it off saying, like, you'r the only person in the world who owns a bike, and all that crap.

                Guess its cause I've never lent my bike to anyone neither taken a pillion since I changed my cylinder kit.
                Oh. BTW completed 1100Kms today, keeping RPM withing 5.5K switched to HP petrol and all issues of missing solved.

                  Same here,i told one of my friend that my bike's carb needs a cleaning,he told me to sell the bike and get a new one.

                  they just talk it off saying, like, you'r the only person in the world who owns a bike, and all that crap.
                  Exactly.

If the current is decreasing with time, then the inductor will tend to compensate for the decrease in the magnetic flux...next what? How and when the switch operates?

Old model ZMA battery cage is something hard to come by. It is around 300 bucks. For HH Passion, I really doubt if the ZMA battery compartment would remain compact after managing them to place it?
                      No idea about other bikes cage.

                      Thank you for the details .

                      • Yesterday washed my bike with "Dhathri Hair Care Shampoo". And this is what I got after.

                          • Last night saw the movie Fast_Track:_No_Limits. I liked the old man's advice,
                            "A ride's like a woman, you buy her drinks to get something from her, but if you get her too drunk then it'd be troublesome so lean her out."

                            So today leaned my bike, now AFR at 3 turns...
                            And something I've noticed now's that even though there's a fluctuation in RPM say by a 100~200revs when hot(really hard to notice though), the bike accelerates faster, its like theres no strain on the bike, but am abit confused is it good for the bike or is just behaving like this for now and will later on bring trouble...

                            @PSR Sir,
                            And a few weeks back Sarin bro said ZMA has a lean burn engine, can you please explain what that means???

                                Searched the web alot, and the only info I got was that Enfeilds have lean burn engine, I'm starting to think all long stroke's are lean burn's. Anyways will clear the doubt when we meet up.

                                And Sir, bikes been recently making a Grrr..Krrr... Kinda feeble sound i.e kinda like wheezing. It comes somewhere from the left side of the bike, and it only audible when we pay attention to it. Rechecked the disks,fairing etc but still the sound arises. And today something strange happened, after leaning the bike, it stopped making that sound and a new whistle like sound's produced from the left side itself.

                                Not sure if it has anything to do with leaning the bike, but am abit confused on the same.
