where can i download the owners manual for honda e storm ?

kill switch short - unplug it! that is all that is left on the system, if it does not resolve the issue there is a bad wire in the harness

You don't give a location Ravi? Have you checked all the wiring harness for breaks, poor connectors etc. KTM is a quality brand but expensive. You may want to be sitting down when you find the price. Why do you suspect the cdi unit? The workshop manual usually tells you how to test with a meter. If you don't have the knowledge to test it, get the info, and take the bike to an expert. Don't just trade parts for guessing. Get the info, check the wiring for rub marks, damage etc and go online to find your nearest KTM agent.

All bikes use a special oil in the forks, and do not have the forks completely full. There needs to be room for the compression of the forks when hitting a bump. Most forks are only filled 3 to 5 inches from the top of the fork. That is why the liquid in the forks can sometimes be heard.

This problem sounds like your lower crankshaft bearing is worn.
the only way to be sure is to pull the top end to expose the rod and center it and see if it has noticeable movement up and down play.
If the crank needs rebuilding make sure you also replace the main bearings
and new seal kit,piston and rings Etc.

you probably blew a gasket, any engine is repairable and rebuild-able but if you want the easy and quick way.... go to a salvage yard.

Take it a part and do it right or you will only tear it up worse when you clean it and get it running again.

Newer engine will require it's own electrical installation ECU and more stuff that eventually it will probably cost you more than to by a newer bike.And all that after making sure that the pin holes of the new engine fits the pin holes in your frame.Needs a lot of work and money.

Hi!

Yepp, mutch more cheaper if you find any secondhand. Some parts can be hard to find in secondhand.

Good luck

Changing the exhaust pipe (expantion chamber) to a pipe that give more low end toque. Most aftermarket pipes work on the to end of the power range. Or You would need to have the cylinder ported.

250cc engines vary on size and design by make and model. It is possible to put on in however you will have to make a bunch of modifications and possibly make some new engine mounts and on top of that it may not be a Kawasaki motor tha ends up fitting. For the difference in power its not really worth the hassle unless you are on an adventure..

Before going to the CDI system go ahead and check the kill switches including the side stand switch, with an Ohmmeter. How good is the battery? Check the fuses. Check the wiring harness. Are all wires clean and with a solid connection? Any abraded wires? Check the operation of the ignition switch with a volt ohmmeter. Is the bike in neutral and the neutral light is lit up?

The manual should tell you in detail how to test the CDI and other electrics.

Give a better description and/or some pics so I can understand what you are experiencing bud.

release water undo hoses remove holding bolts

You will need to slightly loosen the line where it goes into the master cylinder,...then squeeze the lever and hold it in...fluid should come out. While holding lever in,re-tighten bolt. You should get a lil bit of lever feel now. Making sure there is fluid in the resrvoir,...squeeze lever multiple times,and hold it in,....loosen the banjo bolt again,...slowly,..untill fluid rushes out. Then,..while holding lever in,retighten banjo bolt again. Check fluid,...then pump the lever multiple times again,and you should be getting some good lever feel now. After this,you may need to bleed the air out at the bleeder a couple times till alll the air is out.

Get new engine oil and ad a little bit more 2Stroke oil with petrol and make sure your water is full ?
