Anyone knows any good mechanic in trivandrum to fix K&N on my unicorn? Most people are not even aware of "jetting" so please help me.Also,kindly suggest me a suitable jet size for unicorn(one that won't hurt economically).Thnx

There was a point of time when i used to strip my old CT100's carburetor every week and try a new jet. A K&N filter should cost u around 2k at most. A jet costs around 100 to 150 bucks. Most of the times upjetting isnt required as a richer mixture can do the job of a bigger jet. However for pushing it to the extreme a bigger jet is needed. I suggest u go to Ramkoti as there are plenty of mechanics available who do this job regularly. They may advice the correct size jet at the first go. Sam had also got it done there. Probably he or Thejus might know a few mechanics there.Originally posted by vivek4hhh View Postthanks dude for information.dude do u do it by yourself or any mechanic.if mechanic please tell me address.dude which kn air filter is best for my pulsar 180 ug4(rc1060 or rc1100) and i want to improve my bikes performance so i think jetting is must.dude tell me which kn air filter should i use.dude suggest me any mechanics whom you trust since i wanna do jetting also and i dont know anything about jetting.please help me and i wanna know how must it costs overall(KN air filter + jeeting).thanks you

Rc1060 exactly costs 1790 in hyd and you must spend another 150 rs for jet .... Try out the jet which suits ur bike the best and the mechanic cost depends but it should not be very costly .... Go to any bike mechanic shop in ramkoti and ask for the guy to install k&n it isnt much of a deal i do it myself though and for jetting just check some shops around ..... Good lyck

Depending on the Filter used and the size of the stock jet, upjet the carb to a few sizes. It is a purely trial and error based. The guys who are into this know better as they know the right combinations which they learn through trial and error through a series of trials on many many bikes. It can be done even at home provided u know stripping a Carburetor. The K&N filter can be fit by anyone. Its very simple. But u would have to get rid of the airfilter box for it.

thank you.dude does he do jetting also.dude can u tell me overall cost(kn filter+jetting).Originally posted by Addy43 View PostYou could go to ramkot and ask JHANGHIR mechanic. That fellow does this work. He wont charge you more than 100 bugs. Any normal mechanic could do that. Even you can do that with ease. Just cut the pipe going to the air filter and then fix the K&N Filter... C dat u tighten the screws properly and and there is no air escape

don't go for the K&n alone..jetting is absolutely required or else it will mess up your engine. r-1060 is enough for p180 costs around 1700-1800/- and do go for a tuned free flow exhaust with k&n for better resultsOriginally posted by vivek4hhh View Posthello this is vivek 4m hyderabad.im having pulsar 180 ug4,2 months old,4800 kms done.im want to go for performance mods.im thinking to change my air filter to K&N air filter but im confused between RC1100 and RC1060,is jetting required or not.wat are the advantages n disadvantages of jetting.do i need to chabge spark plug n splitfire cable if i go for K&N air filter.plz help me.i dont have any idea about them.plzzzz help meeee
