Of late am ride my 200 very sanely. Since am still studing and fuel my own bike by working part time...need to burn every drop of fuel........so i prefer fewer gear shifts and wenever i slow down from 55 to say 40 coz of traffic of watever i try to slwly chug away instead of downshifting to save fuel....LOL wat else u'd expect......
neway i tried this today wanted to know the bikes low end capabilites and torque abilities FULL EXPERIMENT DONE IN 5TH COG ON A STRAIGHT ROAD
......... let the bike go to 30 and slwoly tried to chug away......it pulled WITH NO HEADACHES.....
then went down to 25 and pulled the throttle slwly....Guess wat it pulled again without a knock....
then 23 same story pulled again..by now rpm's were like 2000......was damn impressed......decided to take her into he teens slowled all the way down to 19 at 1800 rpm....and guess wat she pulled...a slight knock was dere which is very normal i feel......so there u go a small experimental observation again that i have done and this time with the torque and pulling power tested.and boy how she responded right from 1800 rpm on the 5th cog (19kmph) to 68 at 5K rpm's.....still feel that the bottom end needs to be crunched up a bit like for eg the rtr's.......
i dont recomend this for day to day riding coz it will jack up all major components of the engine...
