Thank you for your suggestions Bhai,today went to the SS and got the prices for the spares that I was looking for
Steering Cone 250/-
Brake Pads 140/-
Couldn't find any DOT-4 oil in my town,went around many shops and most of them had TVS DOT-3 for around 30/-.One Shop Had GULF DOT-3 for 32/-.
I'm not sure about the TVS one so decided to go for the GULF one.
BTW what is the diff b/w DOT-3 and DOT-4?? If there are any gains I would try to get one from out of town.
Throttle movement is loose,and it was ok when adjusted but again it was loose within no time,Would changing throttle cable help??
I'm planning to change the spark plugs as well,so went around diff shops and most of them had Mico spark plug costing 60/-.One shop had two models of NGK one is the regular one and the other is G-power NGK with a thin electrode ,which costs 140/-.what's the diff and which one would be better.
My bike clocked 7500 as mentioned in the earlier post so are there any more parts that I should change or replace,BTW My town is very dusty,So I'm concerned will this affect the airfilter as I'm not sure about the SS cleaning it.How can i clean it myself and what is the regular interval of replacing it.
OT:What about my profile pic?? It works in my user control panel but not in my posts what could be the reason??Last edited by sriharsha_madineni; 10-23-2009, 07:09 PM.sigpic

DOT4 resists brake fading for a longer duration when temperature rises due to heavy use.
Don't know about spark plugs. I use a simple one.
Change your air filter. Forget cleaning! Costs only 35 bucks or so.
And, change your avatar pics in the CP!Your biking tells a lot about the person you are!

Thanks abhi bhai yeah I've been reading about K&N stuff just now and decided to stay away from it as of now.
I read this just a while ago and decided to try those G-Power spark plugs

I am a DIY kinda person
so is it safe to try those engine oil and Brake fluid changes at home?
Just read about the front disc maintenance post by oldfox and decided to give it a try.Do you think it is better to replace brake fluid first and then replace brake pads if needed or do I change them simualtaneouslysigpic

^^ +1. Valvoline is one of the best oil for Pulsars. Another one is Gulf. Both cost around the same.
Get them adjusted every 10k kms with the first adjustment done at 5k kms. Go to the SVCs and ask them to do it. And make sure they use feeler gauge to do the adjustment. Most of them tend to do it by feel which should never be done.Originally posted by sriharsha_madineni View PostAbhi Bhai what about this tappets.I guess my bike's tappets were never touched.Last edited by abhijeet080808; 10-24-2009, 10:00 PM.Your biking tells a lot about the person you are!

I use good old Castrol 90W Gear oil. I apply this oil every 2 weeks.Originally posted by sriharsha_madineni View Post@Abhi
What about chain maintenance at home.Suggest any chain lubes and how to apply them. Motul is an alien brand here,so any other brands??Your biking tells a lot about the person you are!
