Honda Pridor 100 Model 2013

[asjdsm]

Pakistan is a place where there are Badshah log and Badshah stuff..All oils formulated in pakistan are:

25% virgin-75% refurbished oil mixture
Resulting===Decreased drain intervals of 1000-1500 Kms

A 100% virgin mineral has a drain interval of 5000/7000+ kms for cars..3000Kms for mcycles as they operate at higher temperatures and are air cooled and oil is strained more and has to do more work than passenger cars..Also 3000Kms is the interval stated by Liqui-Moly team.

Quality mineral oil loose viscosity at large intervals..A fully synthetic oil has drain interval of 10000 Kms..Not available in pakistan.
And i also mentioned it can be drained at 2000Kms but it still would retain its viscosity..

From a relative of mine who works in shell Pakistan i came to know all local lubricants manufacturers purchase base oil for PSO and then add their refurbished oils//additives in them..There is virtually no comparison b/w Liqui and other local minerals.

There is no comparison b/w Havoline & Liqui-Moly..It is like comparing a mehran with a vitz

Good info . I appreciate it.

So is it the case with all oil manufacturers in Pakistan like caltex pso etc?

But still i prefer havo until u post ur experience with it.

Btw does it matter if oil is made from refurbished or crude ?

Its deep science.

Currently i have done approx 1500km in havo and its still usable . Though after 1800km there is definite decline in its quality.

Also since when is this practice of use of refurbished oil going on?

Thanks

Havoline is a better choice than other local counterparts,,The 4stroke oil is only good till 1000,,same is the case with 20w50 laal wala motor oil..I observed a sharp decrease in visosity of the laal havo at 1k Kms..Also i never let any local oil go 1000+ on my ride..You can call it freakingout or overkill..But it is better to pour in liqui instead of laal havo if you are interested in conserving your engine's reliability..As i said i will share a performance review on this product so keep your fingers crossed

Refurbished oils=Low drain intervals as oil viscosity breaks down earlier..Have low flash point..Cheaper to make..More profiting
This practice has been going on for 8 years or so.

Castrol>Caltex in all aspects..I would prefer it anytime over caltex both its magnatec car's range and active 4t series

My quest for an imported semi synth oil still lingers on..

thank u for the manual pictures
yes im very much satisfied with cd100 as i had all varients of honda ie 70,100,125 , but over all 100 is most lovely esp no vibrations at all . i put almost 875 ml in my bike as i buy i litre pack of havoline ,manual recomends 750 because normally honda 3s wala dont tilt the bike to left and right to drain the oil .honda wala says dont tilt while changing oil as oil comes out from oil pump and may sieze the engine .i always tilt it and drain all but i never start it soon . i always givz it 20+ kicks with switch off on every oil change, so oil may go up in oil pump . i will try liquimoly this time but is it available at 20w 40 ??
i find pridor lovely too other than the front light .it also lacks the fuel guage. never open the carbi dont ridr in reserve and always keep ur bike clean from mud as it helps in heating the engine, no need to clean the chalniii inside engine

one issue came in my knowledge a day before is that when ever i push brake the parking light, meter lights, and back light goes ON. funny , any one who can help me solve this issue plz

[Anyone]

How to check that bike needs new engine oil?other then km reading?

Ala bike amjad, keep us posted with you Modifications. love to see them.

Can you guys indentify some thing different in my Pridor :)
except yes front tyre is changed & seat cover, number plate
i am really loving my this little modification or idea which came in mind

[vickytulla]

theirs an oil brand called Kixx which has a JASO MA/MA2 type oil, has any body used it ? it expensive then local manufacutrers and is made in Taiwan. any one has information about it ?

Bhai rolla to hai actually mujhe koi bari oil agency nai lab rai pindi main..Waisay liqui is the best followed by fuchs silkolene,valvoline,castrol activ..Havoline is a great oil but it is for cars the 20w50 laal wala..

I cant find silkoline comp4 20w40 semisynthetic as my bike's recommended viscosity grade is 20w40..20w50 is thicker oil and gives less economy than 20w40 :(..Zic 4T kay negative reviews ki waja say i avoided it otherwise Zic would have been sufficient

[asjdsm]

hmm . waiting for ur detailed reply ..

but look bikes are hot running and hard running things .. therefore they make oil black quickly .. and that black is the carbon .. so if oil turns black after 1k then its a good thing .. as it means its doing its work . if its still looking as new then it means its not doing its job of removing the deposits ..

i think the earlier oil change like at 1k or 1.2k is not due to poor quality of oil but quickly removing the carbon deposits out ..

My bikes recommended oil grade us 20W-40 so this one is good for too...
Do share ur experience with this oil

ustaad log toh oil ke color ko dekh kehte hai
agar buhat black hogaya hai toh means need change

Thanks Vicky bhai for taking interest in my little modifications :)

A common practice is to observe oil viscosity/chicknahat after an interval of 3 days or 200 Kms..For setting a standard check out the viscosity of a zero meter poured in oil,,You will get an idea of its relative thickness..Over time oil will become thin and black

Kixx from GS oils is for gasoline engines..I once used kixx 10w40 in my daewoo,,was good

So can it be used in our bikes?

Kixx which my shop keeper showed me was from caltex? and it was synthetic oil according to him.

Hello guys i just completed 1000 KM on my pridor ........ nice bike... any advices??

[leo.arslan]

A quick pic

[amjad635]

Arslan Congrats for Pridor
bro share more pics of your pridor?

1000km completed go for first free service
get valve settings adjusted & air filter cleaned only
but must go to re-known honda mechanic

Dear Arsalan, congratulations on successfuly completing the brake-in period of your Pridor.

My advice is to please make your thread and share pictures of your Pridor. If you have made any changes in it then please do share it's pictures too.

As Amjad Bhai gave you valuable suggestions, my emphasis is on the point that only and only go to Honda authorised dealer for first tuning of your bike, also take the owner's manual with you and get this tuning entered on the page provided in the manual. Also don't forget to get stamped by the Honda dealer for warranty.

Also one thing please don't forget to share the fuel average of your pridor on this forum.

Gs-Oil company has some shares bought bycaltex international..It is a korean brand

If you are using a 20w50 oil already you can try this one.

Its has a 15w40 viscosity products too which i am interested in..Have you found one?

GS Caltex Lubricants

[vickytulla]

thats strange, that may be 2number oil but I am not sure you must investigate not to get 2number oil , because orignal kixx is from GS oil as far as I know, it is wriiten on it as GS Oil, and the JASO/MA version is specially in one liter bottles for bikes.

So can it be used in our bikes?
