Big Bore
great to see the 3rd entry of another 2stroke in your garage. All shiny, looks like it just came out of showroom man
amazing work done and great to know that she is shining well and running well too... thanks for the treat of eyes.
May God shower you with more exotic 2-strokes brother

brother if ur spending so much ,
i think u shud have gone with a better disc setup like unicorn or RXZ
because from personal exp , old pulsar discs aint so reliable .
Dont know about the new ones .
And as it is a thing of safety , it shud be given first importance .
Would cost u more or much more ( dnt knw exactly ) but again safety is imp .
Again there would be some who would say their discs performed completely well . But i have heard far too many lock out n failure issues .
Anyways very good to see your passion for these bikes .
Congratulations and enjoy
Hope is a good thing ,
may be the best of things and

Thank you Brother but i think the pulsar disc setup is reliable as i was using a P-180 DTSi for 5 1/2 years (covered 52,000 kms) I have also fitted my earlier RXG-135 (5-Speed) with a Pulsar fork+disc setup and an ABS setup. It works really smooth & well and also doesnt allow the disc locking factor at higher speeds. I am planning to put the same setup on this bike too. For me safety too comes first as i travel more than 100kms per dayOriginally posted by outworldly maniac View Postbrother if ur spending so much ,

Thanks Big BrotherOriginally posted by yamdoot View Postkya baat hai big bore buddy ! looks factory fresh! amazing job there. runs great too! i really liked its crisp sound . so whats the next project? RD or RZ? btw, the shaolin bore u were looking for can be arranged!
My next project is just under completion, another sporty looking RX135 that i am restoring for my friend. Maybe a RD is next in the line, should get hands one first. Let me know if you know anobody interested in selling a RD.
Let me know about the shaolin bore, i need one and i think the price too is very reasonable. Will give you a call.. Thanks once again

Looks amazing
Fantastic Big Bore. RX restored the way it should be. No fancy springs, stickering, mud guard/etc. Simple & elegant.
2nd snap and the last but one snap is really
Just out of curiosity, do you use these two-strokers for daily commute? What is the usage pattern like?
Asking this coz, my bike when unused for more than 3 days becomes tad rough. So, I have to use it everyday. I wonder how you manage with three of them

Raktim the ABS works very well, you should get one on your bike too with a fork+disc setup. Gives you a better control on the bike while braking at high speedsOriginally posted by blisteringintelligence View PostABS man i didn't notice that. great job...

Seriously i am looking forward to buy an RD next and then restore it. Do check out my next project on my friends RX135, will be putting it up in a couple of days. Have made it sporty and powerfull as per my friends requirements. Will keep you updated

And yes i do use my Shogun & newly restored RX135 for daily commute (108kms) on an alternate day basis and use my RXG135 on weekends and long trips only. I dont face any problems on any of these bikes even if it isnt used for more than a week or so. Runs very smoothly

Hey Arun... Its nice to see your bike man and the hardwork you've put into it comes alive with look. Once I get a second bike I will send my bike to you (Of course with your permission) Please wave your magic spell into it...
