2nd Gear Katak Sound Issue
As I purchased Pridor, On 2nd day i did realize
that second gear is making unpleasant little higher Katak sound
when shifting as compare to other gears but i thought this is nothing to worry
this must be due to clutch settings but as another
p.w Pridor owner faced same issue with his Pridor
Than i went to Honda mechanic and he adjusted the clutch setting
despite that it was producing this sound Finally in the end,
Mechanic also said this seems a minor factory problem this would produce this sound.

It should not be producing this higher katak sound
It is really shameful for AHl launching bike with flaw
Now this flaw is not very serious but despite this should not be there
In similar way AHl had launched some CG models with very annoying knocking & khee sound issues
Pridor issue does not look to me very serious, Because as you get use to clutch of pridor
than you won't be having any issue in shifting from 1st to 2nd
You won't listen any higher Katak sound, You will be shifting gear nicely
So don't be discourage if you are Pridor owner within some days
You will over come this issue as i have, gladly i am now shifting 2nd gear pretty good

Some Issues & Cons In Pridor
^(as par my experience)
After keeping Pridor for more than 3months
driving it on differet locations good & very bad roads
i have found out these problems in pridor
thought I Should share with you guys

Rear Shocks: In my view rear shocks of pridor are too soft
they are comfortable do provide comfortable ride but on bad roads
with heavy weight of about 228kg they failed to work properly
Handle: Although i have talked about this handle issue with some known mechanics
here at my city all say its fine but i think there is something wrong with handle
mere hisaab jo yeh handle mein Gooliyan hote hai unka koi problem hai
when during driving bike on bumps i don't like handle jaise yeh hit karta hai
Chain Cover: Not really a serious issue it is pretty common in Pakistani motorcycles
It produces noise on bad roads or bumps
i think it touches frame thats why this sound produces
and sound only comes from upper portion of chain cover
AHl should have given some rubber to remove this noise
Stock Tyres: Bumpy front tyre & slim rear tyre does not performs well
slips & unbalances bike also not comfortable on high speed
2nd Gear Loud Katak Sound: Yes definitely an issue me facing in my Pridor
this issue has been reported in some old CD100 & in some Pridors too
but not present in all bikes

Note: All these issues are based on my experience with Pridor
People don't even think or nor they consider these as issues
Issues above mentioned by me are not serious
Except only katak sound issue which is definitely annoying

Some Changes Or Little Modifications By Me
*Changed front stock tyre with Se
rvice Turbo Sports Tyre
*Changed rear stock tyre 2.75-18 with Ghauri 3.00-18 dual purpose sports tyre
*Sporty Graphical lines on Headlight pics on page 11 & 12

Just Couple of Days Back I Was Going To My Village On Pridor
& Pridor Has Amazed Me Mujhe Faisal ...has Definitely got powerfull quick response engine

Bro definately Pridor has powerful quick response, but on meter why they have scaled as:

0-25
26-45
46-70
70-100

What it means in your view?

[amjad635]

don't know about these numbers on meter what they are for
in normal driving you won't drag bike this way
3rd gear power of pridor has amazed i mean thats alot speed in 3rd gear
and i think it may be possible to achieve 100km/h in 3rd

[racer7]

I think it's as under:
0-25 1st gear range
26-45 2nd gear range
46-70 3rd gear range
71-100 4th gear range
101-140 ??????????????

[amjad635]

100 onward it is obvious 4th as there is no more gear
if these numbers are representing gear than no 1 should be @ 0km/h
this is correct placing of numbers as in CD70 speedometer

[racer7]

It means AHL have made mistake???

[amjad635]

i don't think its mistake as same way its written in old models too
meter of cd70 2010 you can see 1 is written on 20km/h
its really beyond my understanding 1 gear on 20 than what about 0 20km/h
do we move bike with feet till 20km/h than shift 1st gear

[Anyone]

it means after 20 engage 2nd gear.

[devilskreed]

bro i changed it today after 400km so again back to AHl Oil now
it worked ok as compare to I had very bad experience with Deluxe using Zic 10w40
Honestly speaking i did not like sound of engine with Zic 10w40
& I think it was knocking more & engine had become more noisy
So bro my personal opinion still remains same for Zic 10w40
In my view this oil is not suiting our motorcycles

For peace of mind next time use LM racing 4T 20w50 and drain it at intervals of 1500Kms..AFter trying a lot of oils i am finally sticking to this one.

[devilskreed]

Mine is just 83km driven. And from now onward I will observe the Milage.

I am very concerned about the quality of Chain covers, that should be of any different make and shap,, will make the pridor more beatiful.

You shouldn't have changed tire size atleast in break in period..large whell base=More strained engine and still in break in, you do the math.

[humayun990]

dear devi, u r right LM racing 4T 20w50 is the best i ever seen,

[gull_s_777]

this is correct placing of numbers as in CD70 speedometer

4th gear at 80??? really???

[racer7]

It shows so but it's a confusion. Why AHL has marked on the meter so???

[umerchaudhary]

48 to 52km/lt is the patrol average of Pridor in city so its normal bro
and i mananged to achieve above 70km/lt two times on highway with speed 45km/h
if you drive pridor with pillion heavy weight on high speed 75,80km/h
its average falls down to as low as 45km/lt

i have not checked average of my Pridor in recent time
inshAllah will try to check average now as its 3000km driven
& carb is still untouched

Amjad bhai my previous model cd is giving me 50 to 53 kmpl in city bcoz of deluxe tyre before this it was giving 55 kmpl in city I thought pridor bcoz of euro 2 will give atleast 60 kmpl in city.

[amjad635]

I think CD100 is the first Euro 2 bike of Pakistan
So Umer bhai your bike is Euro 2 also
Bro i am getting this average on pridor bro

[amjad635]

4th gear at 80??? really???

It shows so but it's a confusion. Why AHL has marked on the meter so???

i think it is showing the Max: potential of 3rd gear

[umerchaudhary]

I think CD100 is the first Euro 2 bike of Pakistan
So Umer bhai your bike is Euro 2 also
Bro i am getting this average on pridor bro

Amjad bhai mere bike to 2005 ka model ha first model of cd 100 jub pakistan me euro 2 ka naam nishan bhe nhe tha . Us bike k two threads bhe hain I thought u know that what bike I am having khar koi bat nhe.

[devilskreed]

I can guarantee if people will try to do stunts of 90Km/hr in 3rd gear engine will total in a matter of months..Maximum permissible shift before redline is 65-70 in my opinion...It is better to drive the way a 97cc commuter is supposed to be..

[humayun990]

thats right

[amjad635]

Umer bhai i know bro you own old CD100
aap ne kaha pridor euro 2 hai eski bawajood kam average
toh reply mein maine aapko kaha aap ke pass bhi toh euro 2 bike hai
mere khayaal mein aap ne mere comment ko ghalat read kiya

Yes you are correct they should be driven with care not agressively
I draged my pridor for some purpose
if some one regularly try to drag bike this way in 3rd Gear.
Very hamrful for engine

But again its astonishing performance of pridor in 3rd Gear for me
Bottom Line is DON'T MESS WITH PRIDOR IN 3RD GEAR

[devilskreed]

@amjad635 Sir a university mate of mine bought a new pridor its 2800 kms driven but he is a racer sort of guy..We tested out each other rides and he himself claimed mine was more silent and response was also better than his,,basically due to ontime tune ups and normal shifting as well as premium quality oil plus i maintain it my self nowadays(plug,change lubrication,,air cleaner element,,battery top etc)
