  • Engine Oil level

    Hello fellow bikers,

    I own a Pulsar UG III 150 cc.Bought it almost 2 yrs and 2 months ago and have clocked 35k kms on the bike so far....
    I just have a couple of questions :

    1.Is there any effect on the clutch plates or the pick up of the bike if you tend to fill the oil a little over the upper mark.. I normally use my bike a lot and the oil tends to burn a little faster than normal and hence the oil doesnt even last a month completely.I usually get a top up within a period of 10-15 days or so, if I put the oil till the upper mark.So I tend to fill it above the upper mark, normally full.
    My mechanic avoided me to do so as he says that it affects the pick up of the bike. Is it true ? Or it doesnt make a difference at all ?

    2.Secondly I feel that my bike doesnt perform as it ideally should cuz the clutch plates worn out at 15k kms and I dont feel the pick up too great when I compare ny friend's bike (same 150cc, but his is 1 .2 yrs old)

    Please advise...
Working...
