Hello, enfield owners. My uncle came from US for two months and he wanted to buy a new RE to use in that period and sell while returning. But there is a good waiting period for these bikes here atleast in Hyderabad. I'd like to know is it possible to get any of the RE models rightaway, or all the models have a waiting period??

In case there is a waiting period , he will have to buy a used one. Any suggestions as to where to look for, as giving an online classified will take days to respond.

Please guide me owners. Thankyou.

UR motorcycle should b able 2 handle it ... but barely. I fitted 2x70w fog lights on my E5S which has a total output of 197w(?), when I turn the fog lights on, the headlight dims a little. So, I just use it only to bring down the jerks who always have their headlight at high-beam. I also have a single 70w foglight on the legguard which I use more regularly while on long runs. The single does not affect the headlight.

My TBTS (done 14 k) gives a strange " Thud " sound when I turn off the bike .

Also when i start the bike for the first time in a day and when I engage the first gear it gives me a strange shake as if i dint apply full clutch (I apply full clutch).This issue never occurs on the same day even after parking for 8 to 10 hours . Happens only when started for the first time in a day.

I got the Cam wheel assembly replaced in my 3 rd service. What may be the problem????

Hi I would like to fit 2 Fog lamps to my 14K Old TBTS. Throw some light on

1)Brands available,
2)Specification,
3)Any modification needed ,
4)Cost and
5)Performance in the Night time & fog

I dont want a fog light which cannot be used both in Night time( where visibility is less) and for fogy weather

Is it true some fog lights dont work well if the road doesnt have the white markings

Guys,

I am mad about CL500. I want to buy this beast and ride to the fullest.

But facing a major problem with the delivery period.

I am from Maharashtra , Mumbai.

I went to book the CL500 then Showroom guy told me to wait for 13 months for Cl500 and 8 months for CL 350.

As i went through the thread of CL 500, all the users are from Delhi or Bangalore or Chennai or Mumbai.

I think the craze demand are in only these metropolitan cities only.


I think that i should book the bike from some small city and register it in Maharashtra.


All India Bulleeters:- can any one tell me whether from any part of India i can get the CL 500 with in 3 months or less and then i will bring it to Mumbai for registration.


Please help me .

Hi,
How to clean the air filter for Std. 350? It is the paper drum type, and my mechanic just takes it out and bangs it on the ground a couple of times. No dust comes out (Does that mean Hyderabad air is really, really clean? ). Also, when to replace the filter?
My mechanic replaces the primary oil (in the left side cover) during every service. Is that necessary? Does the oil get spoiled every 3000 km/ 3 months?

Hi saurabh325!

Hey bud, the oil that you should go in for should be a grade 50 oil, or it can be a multigrade with the rating for high temparature operation as 50.

For the engine:
SAE rating: straight 50 or xW50 (15W50 or 20W50)
API rating: can be anything above SG, although the higher the better
JASO rating: You don't have to worry about this in case of a Bullet as the clutch is contained in a separate cavity with its own oil there, so MA or MA2 doesn't matter.

A suggestion is that you should stick to an oil reccomended for use only in 4 stroke bike engines, not cars or anything else.

For the primary chaincase:
SAE rating: straight 40 or xW40 (10W40 or 15W40 or 20W40)
API rating: again anything above SG
JASO rating: Here it should be MA2

Also, you can use the ATF in our primary chaincase. But be careful that the type is Type-F, as all other types have friction modifiers in them which would cause clutch slippage here. Also note that the manual reccomended oil used here is of grade xW30, but then I have found it very thin at temparatures prevalent here & also the traffic conditions. I found the xW30 oil needing top-ups from time to time, which were quite frequent.

Take care.

Happy thumping,
Prakhar
