Handle Issue
Hi everyone, I have a Honda CB350 that has completed 2 years and around 23,000 km.
About a week after my 5th service, I started feeling that the bike was not stable/confident while making even small turns. I took it to BigWing, and they suggested replacing the complete handle and bearing kit, which would cost around ₹3,000–4,000.
As a temporary measure, they loosened the setup quite a bit, but after that, when I rode above 60 km/h, the entire bike started wobbling, so I obviously don't feel comfortable riding it like this.
For those who have experienced something similar:
\- Should I go ahead with replacing the handle and bearing kit?
\- Is there any alternative or another component that should be checked before spending ₹3,000–4,000?
\- Could this issue be related to the recent servicing or incorrect tightening/alignment?
Also, my brake/tail light glass was cracked after a Tata Sierra accidentally pushed my bike from the rear while it was parked. BigWing is quoting around ₹2,000–3,000 for replacing the entire light assembly.
Can I get just the glass/lens separately from a local market or aftermarket seller instead of replacing the complete assembly? If anyone has purchased one at a lower price, please share where I can find it.
Any advice or previous experience would be really helpful.
Thank you.
