Thanks for the info Yamdoot,
ya but according to bajaj the shocks of P150 & P200 are triple rate, 5step adjustable, 100mm travel(Source:mypulsar.com). But both the bikes may have different kerb weights and height ;does that affect the installation. Also yamdoot could you help provide the configuration of apache shocks?

Nio : Why you want to go for P200 shocks ?

And, have you enquired the price ?

@ mithun
ya on riding a P200 i felt the rear shocks a tad comfortable than my bike (though both share similar specification).I don't know abt the price exactly but i think if they are same on configuration the only price variation should be based on its colour(black); for the stock pair of P150 its 1.6K approx

U can go for pulsar 220's shocks.. But u have to cut chain guard a little.. Otherwise it will touch it.. Its footer is small compared to pulsar 150. Its spring size is bigger compared to p150.. I have fitted 220's shock in my apache 150 which is running with ZMA swingarm..

Then it will be a direct fit without any modification.. U can go for 200's open chain cover for better chain and sprocket life.. Shocks cost me around 1600/-.. All the best.. Keep rocking..
