    Can you please tell me what carburattor is present in yezdi?
    Becuase I guess the bike needs a new carburettor..

    Please give me as much info as possible as it might help me in procurring one. Also if any place where I can get it.

    Thanks in advance..
    I restored my yezdi recently and I put a Pacco carburettor. It is manufactured in New Delhi i guess. So you can find a shop which sells it easily.

    It does spoil a bit of the "idling" beat and the pickup slightly, but increased the mileage from 21 to 31 for me, with the same driving style. Also it does not have any problems like flooding or becoming rich etc. You can leave the petrol ON for as long as you want when the bike is not in use.

    It is almost impossible to source an unused Jikov Carb. You'll end up getting second hand ones from scrap bikes, but the point is these carbs do not really "stop working" or anything. So it is surprising when you say that the bike needs a new carb. You may need to clean it completely and only change the float needle if it is not supplying petrol to the cylinder.

    A decent RK at <25k seems to be reasonable and that too with mechanicals and a new paint job. Thanks

    Hi Raghubrp,

    Its true that prices of Yezdis and jawas has gone up. 30K to 35K is normal pricing for a decent Running Condition Roadking. (Barring the Paint job and denting,etc),
    If its a newly painted and restored Bike than 40-50K is what everyone expects as it takes around atleast 15 to 20K for a good Restoration work. The pure reason being the availability of spares and the cost of spares. Also check the paper work too.

    hey guys, I just wanted to know, what would be the reasonable price to buy a roadking?
    I have come across people quoting between 30k and 60k claiming them to be in immaculate condition(which I think is impossible). can someone guide me?

    Hi guys, I recently bought a Yezdi 250 delux - 83
    Was lookin for a good mechanic, also was looking into some minor mods,
    pls post your suggestions,

    The bike is in pretty good running condition,
    hav'nt looked into the engine yet ... but does'nt give me ne starting probs ...
    most parts are stock ...
    The changes are mainly the carb ... which the previous owner changed ...
    its currently running a splendor carb (not kiddin) gives 35 milage and no-startin problems (starts on the second kick even in the morn, although there is a minor leak in the carb) ...

    K as for the mods hav identified a few ... but am doubtful of the results so need som help on tat
    1) Iridium spark plugs ...
    Dont kno if they will fit, or if they will be effictive ...
    Ive read somewhere of shogun, shaolin, rx100 running with them ...

    2) Air filters
    please suggest ones tat will be appropriate

    Will definitely be changing the carb to either pacco or jikov

    will not be reboring the engine ... can't change the heart
    pls suggest ne other mods ...


    Regards,
    Iridium plugs
    Frankly speaking
    NGK Iridium spark plugs dont give that much performance
    Because any spark plug tends to give weaker sparks as the heat in engine increases.The only thing is that Iridium plugs handle heat somewhat more than the conventional plugs
    But if you are keen for iridium plugs,go for Bosch Platinum-Iridium plugs if you can get it.
    One more thing is that Bosch Iridium will cost you around 175 rupees whereas NGK Iridium will cost you around 550 rupees and both have same performances hence you see that you can purchase 3 Bosch iridium plugs instead of 1 NGK and Bosch is always better than NGK in terms of spark plugs.

    Visit any authorized Bosch outlet in your town and find out whether you can get it for Yezdi or not.But so far I know,NGK doesnt manufacture iridium plugs for Yezdi.

    Air Filters:
    K&N Filters are good but will make more noise
    Instead I recomment you to go for pipercross stock replacement filters
    You have to do nothing just replace the foam of your current air filter with pipercross foam.The firing of your bike will also be the same and it will give high air flow thus free revving and smooth engine.
    I recommend you to go for pipercross stock replacement filter it will cost you around 1700 approx

    Dont rebore the engine.Already Yezdi parts are not available and plus very few persons does reboring properly.
    Instead go for stock block piston.In Pune,a shop near Quartergate next to Kalpana Automobiles(Dont remember the name but I have seen logos of Yezdi,Escorts and also seen the engines and parts kept in that shop) I remember that block piston set for Yezdi,Jawa,Rajdoot and are still available so if you are staying nearby Pune,I dont think it will be difficult for you.
    Also from this shop you can get some parts for Yezdi

    Splendor Carburettor for Yezdi???
    How
    is the pickup right?
    Because so far I think that splendor carb wont give you pickup at all.Your bike will run like a 100 cc one.


    Bye the way
    In how much rupees did you purchase 1983 model Yezdi and from which city?

    Thanks Srini for quick reply. Even if expensive, can we get one. How expensive do you think ?
    Please post pics.
