The Official Pune Offline Meet(G2G) Thread

[kartikpai]

Hello All,

One of my roomies was looking for second hand bike in range of 30,000 . Any reliable places in pune where we can find a good deal in terms of price and quality . Though he has a little bit of his heart leaned onto the honda brand , but ideally this should not be a major constraint for him as he is gonna use the same for daily commuting.

Thanks,
Kartik

P.S I have already tried convincing him to go after a new one but he is adamant !

Try Yash Motors in Nana Peth area, pretty reliable.

Also you might have to walk a little bit there cz there a million of shops out there which sell good 2nd hand bikes. Also clean paper work is on the menu too. If your friend is seriously wishing of buying a second hand bike then thats the best place...walk a bit and you will have multiple offers..also dont forget to bargain..

BAWA!!! You can get a used 2007 P220 Fi for that kind of money!!! Why buy Honda!! Buy P220, change block piston (3k including labour). Voila!! New Bike!!!

BTW, a 2007 P220 engine warranty will stay valid till 2012.

exactly.. you are correct dude... if anyone is trying to go to baroda from pune.. then try to follow the tips that have already given.. and if possible try to pass mumbai before rush hours.. once you pass the virar naka.. the six lane road starts. upto baroda.. but please take care while passing the golden bridge at bharuch... there is a huge possibility of getting the traffic jam..

My bike is a 2009 P220 (Non Fi). And I am not selling it for another 60odd k km. You are most welcome to buy it then

And why am I not a certified biker? Hell who/what is a 'certified biker'?

Very nicely detailed regarding obstacles and handling...

Others can contribute too...

Check for testing results regarding speeds shown at the end of the document, you can match them up with Indian Bike speeds too.

in theory, antz is right... car clutches are of dry type contruction whereas motorcycle clutches are of wet type (to carry the heat generated due to much frequent gear changes and space restrictions for heat transfer). is a car oil is used in motorcycle, it will definately cause clutch slippage. the only unknown factor is telling when this will happen.

but as dk says, maybe the effect is much less in practice, but the manufacturers prefer to have seperate oil.

or maybe they (manufacturers) are right cos afterall they have experts employed to have the right formulation in oil. :P

The link you mentioned says this:



So this cannot be used by Ninja 250R, P180/200/220, ZMA-R/ZMR. Don't know about R15/CBR. Things would be different if they added more grades.



Adding to what Ritwik said, Car engine oils are rated JASO MB and have special 'friction busters' which aid FE of the car. These very 'friction busters' would cause clutch slippage in the bike. Actually if you use car engine oil in a bike, it actually returns better FE (personally tested by mistake ) but considering the cost of early clutch replacement, the lower FE Bike engine oil turns out to be cheaper .

Bike Engine oils are rated JASO MA/MA1/MA2. Difference is of additives used. So, they are not interchangeable. Thats why we shouldn't use Motul 300v in your car and Mobil 1 in your bike.

Thanks for the info experts

@Antz: Btw, Motul also has 300V engine oil for cars Congrats on your new car.
