Greetings, In Feb 2024 - I have plan to upgrade my Thunderbird to Self-start , that would solve my kick start issues. And good for me. I found , there is a self start kit in the market. Further, I have made up mind , to update my Thunderbird 2005 model. Let’s see how it’s comes at final. Thank you
Great video. Just one more step. Add 100 ml of engine oil via the spark plug opening and kick the bike over a couple of times to lubricate the bore. And also disconnecting the battery terminals helps a lot. EDIT: THE CORRECT AMOUNT IS 50 ML OF OIL INTO THE SPARK PLUG HOLE. I CHECKED MY OWNERS MANUAL TO CONFIRM THIS. APOLOGIES FOR THE MISINFORMATION.
Great point! Yes , its a plus point , Should be adding this step into description / text on video, I believe 25/ 50ml should be OK, as putting more , could be a starting problem once you want to start , Because engine oil will remain into bore , and will fill the spark-plug making hard to start, or need to remove the extra engine oil via spark plug hole , also need to clean spark plug point many times ,till the motorcycle can start ( over filling of oil into spark plug point ) What do you think a small amount approx 25ml should OK - I believe Thank you for your suggestions
@@magentastar8839 you're absolutely right. The manual says 50 ml. I just checked. 25 to 30 ml should be sufficient if storing for a short period like 3 to 4 months. I apologise for the wrong information. I am editing my original comment to reflect the right info.
Dear Rahul, If you have some friends in New Delhi, That’s would be great, As he can visit , Karol Bagh market Newdelhi, and find the required spare part. As it’s difficult to get old model parts. Normally nobody replies, if you send email to them, or WhatsApp. Mostly need to visit these shops and select required items. Good luck
Dear unfortunately I don’t have right answer, Mostly its combination of few things , spark current or carbonator issues, Also Try to keep the ideal running little higher . I know this issue in my Thunderbird also, I have also plan to look into during my next visit to Village early next year.
Beautiful ride sir. And you have maitained it really well. Please tell your experience with avl thunderbird. I am about to buy the same model but i am confused. The mechanics here say it is not good engine. Plz guide
@@AmitUP-tp2kw Yes correct dear , I believe it’s need experience Royal Enfield Mistry ( Mechanic), good knowledge on old models, For me I face starting issues. But it’s always give good mileage.
Hi..sir liked your video, I would like to have your advice regarding this model as I am planning to buy this bike ,when is the right time to contact you
Hi Prakash, Yes, if you remove one of the terminals wire, that’s would be Great, As this old model, Thunderbird, Works without battery also. That’s why I missed to mention. Yes it’s good practice to remove the battery 🔋 connection carefully and apply electrical tape or wrap with plastic- the wire end. Thank you
Hi Ninja, Unfortunately, I don’t have any idea, I believe, if you try with some of the part supplier’s, they can arrange. As it’s easy to make now days. It’s matter of get printing. Good luck
Thank you Karl , for the suggestions, at present no plans for P R O M O S M , as i am putting these video for myself to keep as records and help to some one if its useful to them.
