  • Hi all! Coming back after a long time!

    Hi all! i used to be a member way back in 04-05 Iirc.

    This is JD from Gurgaon, an aircraft maintenance engineer by profession, but a bike lover by heart. my first bike was a 88 model RX that i got in 2004, and after that dint look back. My current bikes that i have are -

    - 1971 - jawa 250, currently under a rebuild

    - 2003 - Royal Enfield Thunderbird ( done 70,000 + kms on stock engine, and running strong )

    - 2009 - Yamaha R15

    - 2001 - Yamaha RXZ 5 speed , that i just bought two days back.

    I came back to Xbhp after i was looking for tips to tune the R15 using the FID. I have the FID with me to keep trying different settings.

    Having worked on three different RD 350s during 2004-2006, i had to get a 2 stroke, and the RXZ was the first bike that i ever rode way back in 96, though a 4 speed drum braked model, so i had to get that bike!!

    Right now hopefully the collection is complete, and i would like to concentrate on restoring the RXZ, the Jawa, and later the thunderbird also to brand new status!

    Hoping to have a good time here again!!

    Cheers!

    BTW - any help with image hosting?? i would love to post pics of my bikes, and get suggestions and advice.

    Welcome back to xBhp! Maybe you should contact Joel who runs the fastest tuned R15 in the country.
    The Wheel was a great invention; Two Wheels with a Motor in between was even better!

        lol! the 666 is for the devil inside! its from a friend who was always into 666/lucifer and what not. I am a normal everyday guy by day, but by night is when i go mad on the gurgaon expressway, riding my heart out to work and back!

                    welcome to xBhp JD..rather welcome back!!

                    well, if your a 2 stroke fan, then you should definitely attend delhi's G2G...2 strokes is currently the hot topic between the delhi people starting from off roading , to technical terms , to all the query, to all related discussions etc etc.
                    its all about CC...

                            I always get it anything done from Iqbal bhai in Janakpuri for my Yam. He knows the job. Let me know.

                            How much...for that you need to speak to him....depends on what all you need to do and what part changes you need.

                            PM me if you need his number.

                            Take Care !

                              ^^ thats great. but would he be able to source the 14bhp block?? or should i oversize my block and get that ported from him???

                              i intend going for basic mods like basic porting ( raising exhaust and lowering intake if i am not wrong ) . Expansion chamber for overall boost, fibre reeds, and jetting to take care of it.
