the first few batches of 220 were kind of having problems which were later solved....i have a 09 fi....

1) get the bike checked again for the battery prob..

2) i used to get it too.... normally off lately im getting it ...once or twice coz , normally it rains here and rain water triggers the blinking...i stop.switch off bike and then it returns back to normal..no blinking...regularly wash ur bike...humble request

3) make sure u never go out of fuel...its fuel injected...without proper supply it will definitely jerk... maintain nearly 2 levels of min fuel... or sometimes even 1...don go below that..

4)its a pulsar... ...2kms i ride and engine heats up...not over heating... its normal... as far as the over heat symbol blinks , its fine...keep an eye on that...

5) my bike is just 4months old..ever since first day the kiiii sound comes.... comes once then automatically it stops. i keep the rear disc clean always. like i said regularly keep cleaning the bike(includes discs) ....


u may post queries here whenever u want... its much better here... most of ur problems we can try to solve here....

the first few queries are peculiar, and im sure only existing owners will be able to answer, with regards to the brake sound. remove the brake shoes, get them scrubbed with a hard sandpaper to roughen them up, and install em back. They will take a few kms to get to grip, but then hopefully that sound should not come.

1) there is a problem with the started relay your bike will probably have the plastic relay you have to get it changd to the metal one by the pbk guys

2)a oil sensor pigtal was in stalled on my bike which prevents the false readind from showing

3) if a fi bike runs low on petrol it will stutter also there might be water that is present in the tank.

4)its a 220 cc aircooled mill it is gonna get hot fast if the bike overheats a overheat symbol will appear on the dash

5)when ever the 220's rear brakes gets dirty it makes that squealing sound just open up the rear brake assembly and get it cleaned

About the starter problem, I too faced the EXACT same problem on my 2008 P180UG3. It is the BCU fouling. The BCU needs to be replaced.

4. Its not a pulsar problem, the thing is that its an aluminium engine and Al is a better conductor of heat, so thats why you feel the heat... Make sure it doesnt get overheat.
If it does make sure to use a good quality engine oil and if possible get the injectors and fuel mapping checkd.

What is BCU ?

rahuldevnath

(1) I'm 90% sure, it a BCU problem, but it can be a Relay problem as well. Body Control Unit, is a device similar to CDI in looks. Basically, the brain behind all the electrical gizmo's.

If you are not able to take your bike to PBK because of this problem, try removing the Starter Relay. Let the bike crank to start and then disconnect the relay. BCU comes under warranty, else it costs 1400 bucks.

(2) Check Oil level in the inspection window, BCU problem may be again. Else sensors.

(3) Most probably an "Air Lock" Problem, especially if your bike stalls after say giving a sudden high speed burst. Get it checked.

(4) I don't think any you can touch any air cooled bike's engine after riding for say 15 mins or so. If Oil is good and at level, don't worry.

(5) Nothing much can be done here, are you sure your disc pads aren't worn out?

Nagpur PBK is supposed to be the only PBK in whole of Vidharba!! Give them a stick, tell them to take the bike for few days and get it done else you will complaint to Bajaj.
