Now -
1)Is Bajaj still sells pulsar 180 dts-i models?
I asked because bajaj dealer said it is not available some 2 months back.
2) what is the advantages and disadvantages of Pulsar 180 vs Pulsar 200 ?

I heard both give almost the same mileage.still many prefers p180 ?what is the reason? spare availability?or p200 -difficult to maintain?

first word from many mechanics is that- current lott of p200's are unreliable - get a p180 instead
I want some info regarding this.

also ,please mention the big differences in latest version of P180 and p200.
Thanks.
your answers
  1. yes they do sell the 180, its the most vfm bike in the power segment.
  2. 180 gives you a mileage that no 200 can beat. Lesser quality issues. Cheaper spares.

i believe 200 needs to be run-in very properly...coz its stats are are extremely perfect for nice rip or an occasional cruise at 110km/hr...technically it should be the second most fastes bike on Indian roads.


btw,
I own a 180ug3, in 2 years I have covered 38000 kms. I bought the bike for 70k(first in thane) with loan and all it came to 90k...plus the maintenance after accidents and stuff...the whole thing came to another 30k...in all i have already spent more than 1lac on my bike!...
After another 1700 on a k&N I am getting a staggering mileage of (last recorded) 54km/L.!
