    elim carb for 19k???????
    my bull pick up from standstill even in 4th(top) gear with pillion and can be comfortably ridden in 4th at 25 kmph

      bullets have bucket loads of torque ...

        only bullets pull from very low rpm.bikes have small pilot circuit usually,thus they ping in low rpm,also gearing is imp.

        in first gear,6000 rpm,whack the throttle.

          Back to the main issue..."4strokes VS 2 Strokes"
          i would say, there cant be a comparison in gear shifts required on the basis of 4 and 2 stroke engines, as already said..it depends on the engine and gearbox, gear ratios of the specific bike. Pulsar does require comparatively more gear shifts as compared to RX and Fiero.
          Your problem might be solved to a great extent by proper tuning!

            i have done it in 4 th gear from standstill. It requires a lot of clutch work (or pressure). But in 4 th gear pickup is very low

              its quite normal, no problem in the bike

              Four strokes have a very narrow power band due to which you always have to up shift or down shift frequently to keep the bike in the right rpm range..(eg Pulsar's,Xma's,uni's etc)

              On the other hand
              Two strokes have a comparitively wider power band which means your have power at a wide range of rpm which requires you to shift less frequently..(eg M80,Jawa,Rx100/135,Max100's,Yezdi's etc)

              Bike's with high amount of torque also dont need many gear shift's (eg.Bullets)

              Another exceptions are bikes with have very close and/or high gear ratios which helps keep an engine in its confy zone(eg Fero)

                Yeah

                There are some differences in gear shifting in a Two stroker to a Four Stroker

                I was using a MaxR before ---- the first bike - in which i learnt to shift gears

                There will not be so much requirements to shift and reduce gears - u can stop and go easily in second gear at traffic conditions

                Well in case of all four strokers u have to come to the first gear - ---- u can move in second gear also -- but the engine sounds more - and there will not be a power band produced

                Many of the four stroked premium bikes we has here has lesser torque in them - so gear lowering in traffics are a must

                  Even the 180 ug3 has good amount of low end torque. It pulls very clean from as low as 26kmph in top gear with a pillion on a flat road.

                    Apache RTR 160

                    i think in apache it is a very big problem in shifting geras more quickly ..!!!!!!

                    in traffics it creates many problems >?>>>

                    i think...!!!!!!!!!!!!
