See, even Yamaha upgraded the R15 with a better and new swing-arm and wider tyres to make it more stable than its previous version. And I believe even minor tweaks were also made to the frame. Now you ride the new and previous R15s back to back and you will notice how the new R15 is more stable and more confidence inspiring at any speed. It doesn't mean that the previous R15 was bad, it still is bloody good. So believe that Bajaj will also sort out number of things related to design and/or chassis when they decide to upgrade NS. There's no need for so much disbelief if NS feels slightly unstable at a particular high speed. In all this, you are forgetting that this perimeter frame is also the reason that NS is the best handling pulsar to date.

    Honestly, I am surprised that with all these apprehensions you are still going for NS
    hehe... Exactly my point... Even i said it earlier that this is bajaj's first attempt at making a proper product and they will learn from their mistakes and experience...its been just 10 years since bajaj started making their true bikes...still what they did with ns is not bad at all..yeah not bad at all...! but people calling it a revolutionary product and technological marvel is just too hard to digest for me... In one word, its the best pulsar till date and nothing else... And yes i am still going for the ns...i want a liquid cooled 6 speed engine thats the reason i am going for it...coz there is no other choice... I want to buy the duke but i cant afford it now... I have just some query about the ns which only a test ride can only solve... the feel while accelarating, the height while riding in traffic, the sitting posture while riding and mainly the weight of the bike since i have a major surgery and i cant ride a heavy bike that too with high seat... I just wish the handles were better...overall nice product...

Because if it is about Pulsar 220, then I am sorry to tell both of you that you are grossly mistaken. Had you guys been talking about corners, I would agree with the bouncy *rear end* theory, but never straights.

          after riding ns i can say that the riding position is commanding and high ,, rider seat is very wide so the thighs have to prodrude outwards and come back inwards while you place both feet on the ground ( i found it irritating cuz the pants get pulled evrytime ) ,, anybody would get used to weight of the bike after buying it ..

            yes very true the seat is very wide...and its irritating... The thighs hurts a bit...same with the 220 seat... Pants get pulled up everytime and things get worse with a tight fit jeans... I kind of feel pulsars were and still are more biased towards healthy people....not for us skinny guys
            And i agree with you that everyone will get used with the weight of the bike, but my case is a lot different...actually i had a major surgery and i dont have any strength to pull anything upwards with my left hand...i dont have much sense in that hand and the fingers dont work properly...and my own body balance is also not proper since my spine is cut in 3 pieces then... I just ride based on calculations, no feeling on clutch with left hand... So a test drive is must for me to feel the weight while riding.....

                heavy? Man i really need a test ride... i do have a plan B if i have problem with ns...ie get a used rtr180 for the time being and get it modded..use it for a year and then buy the duke maybe... And i just love bikes bro...nothing can stop me from riding... Btw i had my surgery on bangalore itself at NIMHANS... Was there for 2 months paralysed...came back to kolkata, dad bought me a bike just so that i can start the bike and listen to its sound and feel good coz my left side was fully paralysed and i couldn't stand up properly... My dad used to hold me and put me on the bike on centre stand and i used to rev the engine... After i recoved a bit after 3 months, i learnt to ride on the same bike and that was my first bike... still face a lot of trouble while riding...cant feel the left handle and clutch with my fingers... thats my boring biking story though its OT..hehe..

                  True Biker to the core Rahul. Great going bro. and salutes to your dad. After such an incident i think many would suggest to go with a car.
