My bike's insurance is due next month, lets see what happens then, the air filter is a K&N RC 1060. slight increase in performance. can do a 0-60 much faster than stock.Originally posted by Horror View PostAre you sure that such a mod is safe? What about insurance? With such changes will you still be able to claim your insurance? And by the way which air filter is that? any increase in performance?

The air suction pipe connecting the filter to the carb also has to be changed, not an easy job to get an exact fit, might put your engine at risk if job not done with precision.
Have you did the Up Jetting, Bcz adding the K&N will give the lean mixture it might over heat the engine it results damage in engine parts.

No jetting done, i dont feel any engine overheat. But yes, the carb has to be adjusted accordingly.Originally posted by rajaselvam_1987 View PostHave you did the Up Jetting, Bcz adding the K&N will give the lean mixture it might over heat the engine it results damage in engine parts.

60/55w ??
is it safe to replace the stock 35/35W head lamp for a 60/55w lamp ??
one twister i got HID for the battery gave up after a couple months (the HId being connected directly from the batt .. as twisters are AC setuP) ..
so thinking on 60/55W for the other one.. but will the higher power cause any problems ??

Engine size doesnt matter bro,It needs tuning if changed to a high flow filter.Originally posted by Baazigar View Postu sure of it???? Coz i was told its not req for this puny engine!!

Get the jets replaced with bigger ones,Contact a good tuner who plays with carb.Prob u can throw some light on the changes to be made, so that i can discuss the same with my mech.
No,It may even burn the coil due to excess load.Originally posted by 2wtourer View Postis it safe to replace the stock 35/35W head lamp for a 60/55w lamp ??Karizma Parts Manual - https://picasaweb.google.com/1010125...rizmaCatalogue

There is no option except HID.Originally posted by Ronits View PostGuys, replaced the original headlamp with Osram Cool Blue Mega 4300K . Anyone has tried replacing with some other brands' headlights? Any other better options available..?
Initially it may melt the reflector then It'll surely damage the Rectifier.Originally posted by 2wtourer View Postis it safe to replace the stock 35/35W head lamp for a 60/55w lamp ??

I've tested the 55/60W Philips bulb but the engine got turned OFF due to over load on ignition coil at ideal.The coil is not capable to drive the 55/60W bulb. even at a full throttle the bulb not glowed bright as drive through batery.

My bike is doing 40k kms, got the filter changed at about 34k kms, no heating issues or anything, let me research around a bit before taking this decision.Originally posted by Aneesh@4GHz View PostEngine size doesnt matter bro,It needs tuning if changed to a high flow filter.
