      • As long as RC is valid - no issues. I wanted to let you know before hand since cops are known to lay in wait in their "interceptors" along that road. So get all the documents ready.

        • I have covered ~700km on my Yezdi till date. And my RX has run about 500km. These are the readings after their respective rebuilds.And the RX rebuild/revamp was a good month or so earlier than the King's rebuild.

          I am using the RK to commute to office daily and I can't get enough of it. I enjoy the way cops ogle at it wondering whether or not to pull me in (all papers pukka so me not bothered !! ) while people stare and stare and stare at it at every signal point...and a guy in office asked me if it was a Diesel vehicle ROTFL

          BTW I got a simple sticker job and lacquering done on my bike. The float was bust in my carb and also some other minor servicing. 2K damaar ... but happy with the final result. I will post pics tomorrow.

                There are a few items still due to be reworked on the bike viz , the silencers (they are getting a bit long in the tooth now),buffing/polishing the engine and other chrome parts and finally getting a new bore. All in due time ...

                    • yup, new bores are available, though you gotta search hard for em. i had great difficulty, but i managed to source two new 250 bores for my bike and a friend's jawa.

                      • Yup - new bore piston kit costs 5500. But comes with a PPC piston which is cr4p. I am gonna buy that kit anyway coz I need the bore.

                            Hey, check with ur mechanic if the new bore for Rk is the original one,
                            We do get some new bore's with the piston, but u cant just replace them, u need to machine the ports and fix the bore.

                            • Thanks for the heads up. I spoke to the mech. He said he will try to source it himself.

                                Just curiuos @srini sir! Does this mean that the bores come with the ports machined in them!!
