The term oil cooler and oil cooling became very popular in India after launching the Pulsar series 200 (discontinued) and 220 F from Bajaj motors. Oil cooling as we know from the name itself is cooling of engine oil by help of a special component called an oil cooler. Generally an engine oil will loose its viscosity if temperatures are very high than its specified heat range. As a result it may not be able to lubricate the mechanical components properly as specified. To overcome this problem and to provide better cooling especially for air cooled high performance engines oil coolers are generally used.

Fully synthetic engine oil - Advantage & Benefits.
There are 3 types of motor oil or engine oil used for the lubrication of engine. Engine oil is the most vital and essential one for an engine to function properly. The three types in general are mineral oil - derived from petroleum based products, fully synthetic - completely artificial and synthesized in labs. semi-synthetic- a blend of synthetic and mineral oil in definite proportions.
Generally an engine oil has many benefits like lubricating the engine, carries away the heat produced during operation, reduces friction, wear and tear of the internal components and keeping the engine clean, free from sludge combustion and carbon deposits.

Nitrous Oxide Systems - A boost for your ride.
NOS or nitrous oxide - a familiar name among drag racers and those who are crazy about speed and power. This gas also called as laughing gas, was once used as an anesthetic for minor surgeries, yet now being widely used in automobiles and other propulsion systems. Many would have seen NOS system in action while racing in the movie- fast and furious. Due to its superb property as an oxidizer, this gas is used in boosting up the performance of bikes and cars. Along with instant acceleration it also increases the horsepower of engines. A nitrous oxide system is one which delivers NOS with right quantity to the engine. Generally air is required to burn the fuel inside the engine.

Ohlins - Electronically Adjustable Suspension System
Öhlins Launches The World’s First Replacement Electronic Suspension Package
Öhlins has become the first company to offer an upgraded electronic suspension system, replacing the electronically adjustable suspension on the BMW R1200GS and interacting directly with the bike’s ECU and existing user interface. The Öhlins system also has a semi-active function, automatically adjusting the bike’s damping in relation to its speed.
Öhlins has been at the forefront of development of electronically adjustable suspension and has a whole department dedicated to this rapidly advancing technology. Labelled under the heading ‘Mechatronic’, which is an amalgamation of the words mechanical and electronic, this department helped create one of the World’s first production electronic suspension systems, found on the Ducati Multistrada.

Oxy-hydrogen - Using water as a fuel to power up your ride.
People are worried very much as the prices of fuel are going up drastically and they are also struggling to cut down their daily fuel expenses. Our country has the privilege for levying more tax on fossil fuels for profits. Imagine using ordinary tap water as fuel for your vehicles. "wow, It will be awesome to think, but will it happen?" The answer is yes, and this technology will be sure for getting implemented in the near future. The theme is extracting oxygen and hydrogen from water and using it as fuel for internal combustion engines. Let's see how far this technology has been developed till date.

Pulse plug - A new kind of spark plug.
Everyone are familiar about spark plugs. A brand called 'Pulstar' launched a new kind of spark plug called as pulse plug. Pulse plugs - a different innovation in spark plug technology and design acclaims to increase horsepower and fuel efficiency. The new pulse plug produces a stronger and wider spark when compared to the existing spark plugs. Generally the main work of the spark plugs is to ignite the charge (air and fuel) in gasoline engines. The more better and complete combustion of charge also drastically increases the horse power and efficiency. In this post lets see about the technology behind pulse plugs in comparison with existing the spark plugs.

Engine Oils . Castrol Power 1 Racing - Fully Synthetic Racing Engine Oil
Engine Oils
Motor oil or engine oil is an oil used for lubrication of various internal combustion engines. The main function is to lubricate moving parts; it also cleans, inhibits corrosion, improves sealing, and cools the engine by carrying heat away from moving parts.
Generally the engine oils are classified under three categories,
- Mineral type
- synthetic type
- Semi Synthetic type

Iridium Spark Plugs
Spark Plugs:
![]() |
Spark plugs are used to ignite the compressed air fuel mixture in SI engine during the compression cycle. The better ignition of fuel with better timing of ignition increases the performance and mileage. A poor condition spark plug will decrease engine efficiency and power.
So sparks plugs are always among the important performance components of all time. The better ignition of fuel provides the better performance of engine.
