Re: Guys help asap : Pulsar 200 dtsi accelerating problem

Could be either of the three problems,
1. Carb diaphragm. . .
2. Worn out clutch plates. . .
3. Cloged carb, get it cleaned once. . .

Cheers!!!

Re: Guys help asap : Pulsar 200 dtsi accelerating problem

Check cables, air filter and get the carb cleaned, if that does not solve the problem, check the clutch plates.

Re: Guys help asap : Pulsar 200 dtsi accelerating problem

Cables are good, filter is also good and I guess carb is also good (let me first get it checked).

Ok I noticed one thing today in my bike which is after 4k rpm bike starts behaving sluggish and stops accelerating as it was used to be.

Today I went to my mechanic, I rode the bike with him having on my pillion. I accelerated the bike with the full throttle open and showed the problem in the bike (which is bike accelerating very slowly). After that he said, it is the problem of your clutch plates.

Interesting part starts now, after leaving him at his garage. When I rode my bike, it resumed to its earlier picup conditions. Now, which puts me into dilemma that, was problem in carb or in the clutch plates.

Re: Guys help asap : Pulsar 200 dtsi accelerating problem

Sounds like the issue i once faced with my zma way back in 2009.. i posted about this in zmr thread few days back.. i too for once thought it to be a clutch plate issue till [MENTION=32286]psr[/MENTION] sir came forward to explain the issue..

Screenshot of that post might give you an explanation..

But he did say it was faced by old honda engines and my zma was a 2003 model..









These pics were shared by psr sir.. hope this helps..

Am not saying this is the problem or the issue with your bike.. but just a possible issue.. after all.. they are machines..

Even [MENTION=59533]Rakesh Rok[/MENTION] was facing the same few days back and now the bike srems to be running fine again.. he owns a Unicorn by the way

Re: Guys help asap : Pulsar 200 dtsi accelerating problem

Let me tell my share of problems, I too had a similar effect. . . It was like I was riding, kinda having a drag with a RTR180 guy in a straight stretch of road, I was able to stay in the front (my unicorn's power tuned and also I was alone while there were two guys in RTR), so almost coming near to the stretch, I felt some sluggishness in my bike, I thought fuel was over, stopped the bike on the side and checked everything, accelerating, fuel in the tank and even the fuel switch, everything seemed to be fine. . . Then I started riding, it was like my bike accelerates from 1.5rpm and goes to 2.5 rpm and again falls to 1.5 rpm and then starts going normally. . . The problem didn't end here, the bike was not able to go past 5 rpm how much ever I try, even in an empty stretch it was too difficult for me to touch 70kph which my bike normally does with ease. . . Then took it to my mechanic, he saw and said nothing to worry just that the diaphragm is gone, changed it and started riding it and next again problem persisted. . . Then for some days I rode in the same condition, went to him and he again opened up the carb and found that the diaphragm had come out of it's place, put it back and kinda firmly there and my bike was ready again. . . That weekend, I rode to Bangalore, which is around 150+ kms from my place, while going no problem arised and I was able to ride between 60-90kph speed and then parked the bike in the bus stand and went. . . The entire day my bike was there in the stand and at night, around 7 o'clock or so, I started to ride back to Mysore, . . I and my friend were there, I continuously rode the bike at 85-90kph and reached Maddur within or an hour and then took a one long hour break in Maddur Coffee Day and at around 8:50 or so, I started to go back and boy the problem's there again. . . I was not able to ride above 5rpm, I still had half way to cover and as it was late and the bike's problem persisted I took nearly two hours to reach back home. . . After that took to the same mechanic and said him about the problem, he checked and said everything's perfect but still it was like that. . . He said leave the bike for a day and I'll find a solution for it. . . I left and just after 2 hours I left, got a call from him saying the problem's solved and that a small spring in the carb was faulty, he changed it and charged me just 100rs. . . Again some days back, was riding to office at around 4 o'clock when just 5kms to my office, heavy rain came and I rode in that without stopping. . . Then at night, I started bike's problem started again. . . Just ignored and started riding, day before yesterday on sunday, went for a ride to the hills and when I came back the problems solved again . . .

That's my problem history. . . Now @ Rajat Bhanti please read the above. . . See if your bike doesn't go above 4rpm then it's a fault in the carb or diaphragm or as Reneav said sticky valve. . . Or else if you are able to accelarate full in the rpm range and no power is there after 5rpm then that's a problem with clutch plates if am not wrong. . . Or else just a minor problem, BTW how much did he charge you. . ?

@Reneav1987, ain't there any permanent solution for this. . ?

Cheers!!!

Re: Guys help asap : Pulsar 200 dtsi accelerating problem

We must ask [MENTION=32286]psr[/MENTION] sir for his suggestions..

after I saw that problem with my Karizma.. I didn't have it for long as I shifted to Delhi the next month and dad sold it off... but in that month I never faced that issue...

One more question to put up.. how is the FE when the situation arose? for me I had a huge drop in FE..

Re: Guys help asap : Pulsar 200 dtsi accelerating problem

Waiting for his reply. . .

About the FE, nah I don't think mine's dropped in anyway, I was getting more or less the same FE. . .

Cheers!!!

Re: Guys help asap : Pulsar 200 dtsi accelerating problem

Since this is a pulsar, the problem is either or -

1) faulty reed switch on carb.
2) carb diaphram
3) carb slide worn out
4) hose pipe connecting air filter box to carb has hardened over a period of time and has come loose resulting in carb sucking air from outside.

Re: Guys help asap : Pulsar 200 dtsi accelerating problem

My bike starts behaving very sluggish after 4k rpm, but it accelerates (but you will feel like you are riding a scooty when just pass 4k rpm). Okay there was one more noting by me, when the bike behaving badly. When this problem occurred, I did one thing to check the bike, which was just after 4k rpm, I pulled my clutch and gave the bike race a bit (in motion) and after that when I released the clutch with that much throttle open, the bike gained the speed in a jerk and soon again it started behaving sluggish.

I just went to random mechanic in order to ask what the problem may be there with engine. He didn't fixed the bike (after leaving him at his garage, my bike resumed to its earlier condition.

Your above shared pics helped me up to some extent. Because after reading all above the info you have shared. I recalled one thing, which I noticed a month back, when I was getting my bike fixed (engine seal cap was damaged and the oil was coming out from it). The mechanic after opening the engine head in order to replace the cap, he was removing sludge from the engine, a part of that sludge went back into the engine. I think may be that problem arised from that chunk of sludge into my engine and creating problems in the acceleration (not sure about this but I am guessing it may be)

Re: Guys help asap : Pulsar 200 dtsi accelerating problem

It might be as said by Reneav and PS, mine didn't go past 5 rpm at all how much hard I accelerated but only if I used to hold the clutch the rpm needle used to rise or else it used to come back to normal 5 rpm. . .

Cheers!!!

Re: Guys help asap : Pulsar 200 dtsi accelerating problem

I sure wish [MENTION=32286]psr[/MENTION] sir can throw some more light over here..

Re: Guys help asap : Pulsar 200 dtsi accelerating problem

How I can get his suggestions here???

Re: Guys help asap : Pulsar 200 dtsi accelerating problem

Looks like a carburetor diaphragm problem. I had the issue in my 200 NS as well. Wouldn't go past 7k rpm in gear but would happily rev to redline while holding the clutch or in neutral. Get the diaphragm replaced. For the NS's carb it costs 1k. Not sure of this one.
