        tuning a bike is deceptivley easy (u just have to rotate a screw) , but it requires lot of expereince to get it right , so better get it done by a mechanic , and as far as i know the cost will be very minimum , what kind of tuning do you want ? mileage tuning or power tuning ? the latter one will add more pick up for your bike ,

            Expert ? hmm defibe expert ! I'm no expert but here my 2 cents anyway .

            if your engine revs but speedometer show low speed not in proportion to RPM then its the clutch plates .

            there could be other reason ( if above is excluded ) , such as poor spark , clogged air filter , jets . bets bet - let PB service the bike clean carb and filter , then see .

            how old is the bike and when did you last service it ? has it always been this way from the beginning ?

              Try to go to the service centre. Dont try to tune the engine if you r trying to do it for the first time. See for some time(6 to 7 times) how the mechanic tunes your baby then you try yourself.

                  i don't know what you mean by tuning, but there's very little one can do with the carb. only 2 settings ... one for idle running rpm and idle mixture screw ... both of these don't make much of a difference beyond 1/4th of the throttle operation (approx). you need to re-jet the carb if you want any decent power boosts etc ...

                    Well u cud do small stuff like playing with needle clip etc. if your serious about power though and have money to spend on a CDI(rather then waste on mags and hrc) then u can go in for a programmable CDI.i have just ordered one for my pulsar150.
