Can someone give me the details regarding the cost and the specifications of the HID that is compatible with the Dazzler?

Any H4 HID kit @ 4300k preferably or to the max 6000K will be a good buy.Originally posted by steffin View PostWhenever there is a Rainbow in the sky, I know it's u mastering the art of Cornering. U will always be remembered brother, R.I.P Arun.

Hi folks
Just two months since I bought my bike, a few thoughts before giving it for first service-
Gear shifting is smooth.. no issues. But after 400kms, the gear ratios seem to have changed?? Top speed I get in first gear is 10km/hr only!?? Would appreciate if someone could throw light on this.. a little theory would help me understand why initial pickup is poor(atleast in my case) for this bike.
Suspension is a bit hard, naturally cause its in hard setting, but I enjoy the handling so far. Does the suspension improve on its own, like after a few thousand kms or shud I go ahead and turn to a softer setting now? I ride solo.
Engine guard- Will it affect performance in any way (affect cooling?). Is there a stock engine guard for Dazzler, if not any other suggestions?
Seat- any changes that can be done to make the ride sporty? Right now I feel like riding a bullet. I dont want to change handlebars yet.. planning to mod the seat though. So if I elevate seat height will it change riding stance, or am I talking nonsense?
Thanks for your inputs.

Unicorn never had Engine Kill switch. (I wonder WHY???)
I think Honda people want us to flex our mustles a bit after every ride. Hence we have to move our hands from the handlebar to soooo far off key hole.

If by engine gaurd, you are referring to the crash guard at the front, then it won't have any problem, it doesn't weigh much so haven't affected my bikes performance. I don't see how it stops air flow either.Originally posted by Arvotron View PostHi folks

I believe it is made for that look rather than a sporty look, even if you change the handle bar the gear shifts stays at the same place which IMO will cause you discomfort while riding.Peace \m/

Gear Ratio- Technically It cannot change but I m not sure why you have lost on pick up.Must be other reasons like tyre pressure is low. Ideally in 1st gear u will readline at 20Km/hr. Guys help on this!!!
Suspension-I ve done about 7500km on my Dazzler.If you are a Solo rider then shift supension to soft.U'll know the diff once you move it to soft. Initially it might be a little hard but it'll get better when u ride more. At hard if you have a pillion rider it'll work better.
Engine guard you are referring to would be the full engine cover like the ones on pulsar rite?If so they arent available as stock on dazzler but yes a base plate comes as stock that they say is the engine guard.Its just a plate attached below the engine to protect it from dirt etc.
Seat- The dual color is for a sporty look. I think you can go for a twin seperate seat lik the ones on stunner.Comment

I haven't redlined in first gear yet(dare not before 1st service!). Will have to check with SVC about this.Originally posted by vinumathew20 View Post
Yes, by engine guard I meant the engine lower cover like in Stunner. I already have a leg (crash) guard. I just want to keep mud out of my engine, but havent seen a single Dazzler with an engine guard till date.Comment

I just finished 1000 km's in my dazzler today. Can someone lpease answer a couple of my questins?
1. When is the ideal time to check mileage? Is it after 2000kms? Coz i'm only getting around 45 km's.. May be because i ripped a little in between.
2. How often should the chain be lubricated? Service guys told me it's a dry chain and no need of lubricating. But it's kinda dirty and i can hear only the chain sound properly when putting the vehicle on neutral in slopes and riding.
3. I ride alone in the mornings and ride with a pillion in the evenings, should i set the suspension to soft or is hard ok now?Comment

1> i say no need though if u still want to check that do it after 2nd or 3rd serivceOriginally posted by Srinivas Shekar View PostI just finished 1000 km's in my dazzler today. Can someone lpease answer a couple of my questins?

2> 1200-1500 km is best though suggest you to a watch if you start to hear noise it time to get it lubricated
3> suspension depends on the quality of the road you drive. soft is suggest able normally for a solo rider.Patience is something you admire in the driver behind you and scorn in the one ahead..

If you want to prolong the life of the chain and enjoy a smoother ride (with lesser noise), then I would suggest you lubricate the chain every 500-600 kms.Originally posted by Srinivas Shekar View PostI just finished 1000 km's in my dazzler today. Can someone lpease answer a couple of my questins?

I use diesel and an old brush to first clean the chain 2-3 times giving it water treatment in between then leave it in an open, dry place so the water and diesel evaporates.
Then apply TVS Chain Lube spray while the wheel (and chain) rotates freely.. Once that is done, let it sit in the garage for a few hours so the lubricant gets some time to cling on.
Thats it ! The next time you ride it, you will be well rewarded for your hardwork with a sleek and pleasing chain noise and a superb ride
As for the suspension, I had it on soft all along and in the beginning it still felt rock hard. I have completed 3,000 on the odo now and it has softened up quite a lot.
Happy riding

Thanks mate, but are you sure its safe to use TVS lubrication? coz i heard it's better to use only HOnda one since its a dry chain?Comment

Hey guys i'm facing a problem with my bike, it has happend 4 times already..
when i'm on 4th or 5th gear and speeding up above 50 or 60.. sometimes i my RPM just goes full up and the engine gives a sound which is like the sound that comes when we put the bike in neutral and raise the throttle up to 8rpm! i believe this prob is called the fake neutral thing or something! please help me!
The sound is horrible and i feel its killing the engine!
