    Sounds ok. Called up Sanjay, he is busy with festival stuff but can attend g2g today for half an hour or so, Siddharth is out of town. So I clearly dont know why do members post their vote if they are not going to attend even after mentioning in the thread. Moving on.

    Surojit coming here, cool

    Instead of today or Friday the G2G has be postponed to

    Day and Date - Saturday ie - 27-10-2012

    Venue - Grubhsup Cafe - Law College Road

    Time - 8pm onwards.

    One suggestion to all - Please dont cast your vote if you dont wish to attend a ride or g2g.

              Arre no one is making an issue out here. I'm just clarifying things here which are valid. I had clearly mentioned that after looking at votes I would put it up in first half of Wednesday, Check post http://www.xbhp.com/talkies/xbhp-off...tml#post884980

              This was the confirmation - http://www.xbhp.com/talkies/xbhp-off...tml#post885051
              and http://www.xbhp.com/talkies/xbhp-off...tml#post884997

              So as per what I mentioned concluding your's, sidharth's, kuntal and mine i updated the post. I do need to clarify and keep things transparent to other members as well so that they know is the g2g happening or not, that's why the post. If you feel offended, ill remove it.

              EDIT- Such things have happened before also, thats why i had clearly mentioned, vote only if you wish to attend it. I cant be giving last warnings to everyone everytime, I also need to handle out the schedule so that everyone can attend.

                  Might get the pilot replaced by LED if required.
                  Wanted to inquire if this is a feasible setup and would work or not.
                  AFAIK, the R15 Electricals wouldn't support a 55W.Your relay would burn off. You would need to make changes for it to support a 55W.
                  Go for 35W/40W HIDs OR 35W Philips bulbs diamond vision or other variants which would run effectively and you can adjust the throw of the light via the screws below the instrument cluster. Will suffice.

                                See, its a fact that we dont get quality lubes here in india as per our requirements, i have procured many items from thailand not only for my R15 but for some bullets, shoguns and rx100 too and they all are doing good and running well. The raceparts manufactured in thailand are imported in india by many biggies and used in the bikes you and i use so next time i would say you dont buy any bike from any japan manufacturer at all if you are against parts/lubes manufactured in thailand


                                And if you are talking off the topic related to your sarcasm than i would say this is a wrong place to talk about it.

                                A word about dry lubes here...

                                These are generally based on the remarkable lube properties of carbon. Not the sparkler allotrope on fingers/earlobes/noses(earlier) and navels/c********s etc etc{(nowadays) I have yet to know of some moron piercing his d**k with a diamond but you never know..)} but the graphite and amorphous one. Lube carbon is static-free, rubber and metal friendly and quite benign.

                                One caveat is that its application is best suited for atmospherically suppressed/contained environments. When used under these conditions, lube carbon retains its lube properties wonderfully. But if exposed to the environment, there is a dangerous transformation. The carbon in the lube mixes up with atmospheric impurities to form an excellent ABRASIVE mix very similar to the glass-based manja we have used in kite fights at Sankrant.

                                This is why one will find dry, well almost dry - the paste is peculiarly and bloody slippery but NOT wet - powder and paste based lubes in heavy machinery (dozers, armoured vehicles etc), aviation (control cables, bearings, shafts etc), marine (prop shaft bearings, cables etc) all of which operate in a contained environment. The fly-off of lube is contained within the application thereby needing minimum intervention for replenishment/replacement which in itself is based on chronological periodicity - 50 hours check/100 hour replacement/250 hour overhaul, for example.

                                Using such lubes on a bike chain would be ill advised due to the peculiar behaviour of carbon in open environments.

                                I can get the best dry lubes in the country courtesy my professional friends but then, where do I use them? Door hinges? Scissors?Clothing zippers?TV trolley castors? For that, I have my kids' 4B pencils!

                                Sir, Basically There are two groups of lubes on the market: wet, which are oil based; and dry which are wax, graphite, Teflon, etc based. Wet lubes are so called because they stay wet on the chain, and dry are so called because their carrier liquids evaporate to leave a dry lubricant on the chain.

                                It is a misconception that wet lubes are for wet conditions, and dry lubes for dry conditions - a good dry lube will, taking component wear and cleaning into consideration, 'out lube' a wet lube in all conditions. While a wet lube will perhaps obtain more distance its major disadvantages are that it attracts dirt like honey to a blanket, forms a grinding paste and is a pain in the neck to clean. In every instance, chains lubed with wet lubes require regular degreasing for optimal performance.
                                Almost every dry lube on the market is formulated with the lubricant component dissolved in a carrier liquid, which is almost always some form of solvent mixture comprising benzene, propane, heptane, alcohol, acetone, etc. The net effect of this is that such solutions are saturated with too low a content of the lubricant; therefore, once it is applied to the chain, the end result is that the chain is left with too little lube
