Pyrotechnics, If the clicking noise is when you apply brakes or when you fall in potholes, the fork might be loose. Tighten it and everything will be fine.HH Karizma (Current) || CBF Stunner PGM-FI || Honda CB Unicorn Dazzler

I've never actually noticed it while riding (even on quiet roads), the only 2-3 times I've heard it when I was wheeling my bike out of a parking spot. Just this morning I tried to reproduce it but its very intermittent, seems like it happens when i turn the handle, but again not always..Originally posted by ravi@17bhp View PostPyrotechnics, If the clicking noise is when you apply brakes or when you fall in potholes, the fork might be loose.

Hi everyone.... What is the air pressure maintained in Dazzler??
Manual shows that 1.75 front and 2 in the rear... but I noticed different units in Indian Oil Petrol bunk... it is like 0.18 or .22 etc... last by default the guys filled around .33 in the rear and 0.28 in the front and because of this I got meager 27 kmpl.... Can you guys tell me what is the pressure u are maintaining esp who are getting above 50 mileage...
Because I never got more than 42 even after 2000 Kms

Without pillion = 25 psi in the front and 29 psi at the rear
With pillion = 25 front and 33 rear.HH Karizma (Current) || CBF Stunner PGM-FI || Honda CB Unicorn Dazzler

Pratul Honda at Somajiguda.Originally posted by bachiprany View Post@Ravi ..which is the nearest honda service center to jubilee hills or hitech city other than kondapur one
They are cool tyre pressures. I check the tyre pressure every week and fill 25 at front and 32 at back.Originally posted by bachiprany View PostIs this the cool tyre pressure? or is this the one which u tell the guy to fill it?
For good mileage, shift gears at 4.5k rpm with linear acceleration (avoid rapid acceleration). Try avoiding very congested traffic. Use clutch only when changing the gears. Careful not to ride with half-clutch and careful if you are resting your foot on the rear brake by accident. Fill petrol from a trusted fuel station, where they fill exact quantity. Try changing your regular petrol pump and try a new one which is a trusted one.Last edited by ravi@17bhp; 09-21-2010, 12:47 PM.HH Karizma (Current) || CBF Stunner PGM-FI || Honda CB Unicorn Dazzler

It is a great idea to have own pressure guage. You would get a decent one for 200 bucks. I fill air only at one fuel station every week. This way, there will not be any varied pressures.Originally posted by bachiprany View Postwhere can i get pressure gauges and how much it costs? ... and i have been using the Indian Oil XtraPremium petrol ... only time when i used normal petrol I got that 27 kmpl otherwise I generally get 42 kmpl ... do u suggest anything here..
Use only normal petrol. Use IOC in Hi-Tech city. Also, you can try IBP near Honda showroom.
Also, are you having any issues with your bike?HH Karizma (Current) || CBF Stunner PGM-FI || Honda CB Unicorn Dazzler

Spares is a big issue now, as Honda has not yet sent a single spare for Dazzler as of now. I recently fell and am waiting headlight cowls. The works manager at JSP Honda assured me to get the spares soon. Lets see how my luck is.Originally posted by bachiprany View PostOnly issue is I got my tail lamp damaged because of my stupid frnd riding with helmet hinged to grab rail.... and showroom does not have any spares.

The Dazzler's monoshock has three levels of adjustment. Soft, medium, and hard. Generally the bike comes with medium setup. I adjusted the set-up to soft on my bike and I am feeling good now. The suspension works really amazing on potholed roads at speeds. The hard setting will help in handling.Last edited by ravi@17bhp; 09-21-2010, 01:41 PM.HH Karizma (Current) || CBF Stunner PGM-FI || Honda CB Unicorn Dazzler

True mate, if I do not change the oil at regular intervals or from them, warranty will be void.Originally posted by ravi@17bhp View PostToday, second service completed. I have been using only oil supplied by Honda. I do not think service center will allow you to use some other when you give it for service. You have to change it outside of service station. This way you would end up spending double on the engine oil. If you do not change engine oil at regular service, warranty will be void.
Even if you are ready to change the twice, mixing of different brand oils frequently is not at all advisable. In this case, better stick to regular honda oil. Oil supplied by Honda is not that bad.
If I change it from outside after changing from them, I will end up mixing two brands f oil + spending double...
I was just wanting to know if anyone has tried any other oil or still stuck with Honda oil and as to how does the honda oil feel ???
I think I ll stick to it, just that I expected a little more out of the oil

What is the advisable setting for the rear monoshock ?Originally posted by ravi@17bhp View PostSpares is a big issue now, as Honda has not yet sent a single spare for Dazzler as of now.

I mean if I mostly ride alone, what is better ? Soft or hard ?
If I have a pillion most of the times, then what is better ?

For single, soft setting will be comfortable. If the roads are good, medium is the best, which gives the best combination of handling and ride quality.Originally posted by psycho_omkar View PostWhat is the advisable setting for the rear monoshock ?

For two, medium is the best. But, if the roads are bad, if your pillion wants good ride quality, set it to soft. But, the problem is sometimes, with pillion, the center stand will touch the speedbrakers.
As of now, I have been riding with soft setting, as I ride the bike alone for most of the time.
Though initially the monoshock feels hard, it will become softer as the time goes. After 3000kms mine has not been as hard as before. I am enjoying the great quality of the monoshock. It simply glides on continuous potholes.
