Thanx antique.

See the thing is, i want to know if its reliable, i have heard lots of cases in the past regarding engine jamming, block piston problems and so on... Now, can you precisely find out -

1) How many months or years he has used the filter.
2) Any major repairs after the filter because of the change or even just any repairs.
3) What is the top whack, i do not wish to know the seconds but require the speed at which it can be stressed out say till red line.
4) Precise mileage before and after installing of filter.
5) Whats the maintenance specifically for the filter ( Clean, lube, How does he do that? costs of maintenance?)

Can you please let me know the answers to the mentioned questions...
Also iam not looking for that roar which a K&N gives, but seriously want some upgrades rather than investing in a new bike or other parts...

@ Jasmine - yes both spark plugs are different. One is 0.7mm and the other is 0.8mm.

Please stick to one grade and brand, surprisingly the Motul 20w50 Gold and Bajaj DTSI 10,000 are working brilliant...

About top speeds, i have done 130 downhill. If straights are concerned then redlines would take me somewhere close to 120.. which is same as yours...

I have gone to 145, but on long sloping stretches. without slopes, somewhere around 135s (obviouly I was crouching)

happens, once you get comfortable at speeds about 100, 70-80s feel slow or say sleepy

can not be due to use of any oil, may be get it checked. :-/

1)he has Now been using the stock K&N filters for 3 and half months, before that universal (which did not give much improvement)
2)No repairs, it fits egsactly as our current air filter. He also didn't felt need to do jetting, but from few users that I have come across, in some it is required.
3) will ask and let you know
4) before - 38-40 kmpl (on highways)
after - 45kmpl (on highways)
5)will ask

I will come up with more details in a day or two

Top Speed: 135KPH
Downhill: 141KPH.

whoaaa?? 141 on a pulsar??
Btw our bikes have speedo errors, so expect that to pull in quickly over 3 digit speeds...

Also i have max done is 130, crouching downhill and thats the time when the rev limited kicked in, beyond redline some near 11k rpm, how did you guys managed another 10kmph speeds??

You mean another 12000 rupees as labour
Man if you have came with bike here in india then labour won't costed you more than 1000 rupees in private garages & in ASC i guess it would be around 2000 rupees .

that makes 145 top whack on stock (till now)

I haven't had rev limiter kick in anytime till now !!! (considering it cuts rev like it does on r15 )
I guess extra 10kmph were may be because of newer engine

Speedo errors means showing excessive speeds. So if its showing 140 you are actually doing 130 - 133ish...

If thats the case then the pulsar 220 should kick a CBR 250 Ass at it should clock 160kmph...

Whacked out Top Speed : 127-128 kmph once

Normal Top Speed: 117-120 Kmph

If you compare the bajaj spares with those of other manufacturers in India you will find them the cheapest and having comparable life span, It was only yesterday when I took my brothers Apache for service and found that the front visor + Mask cost a whopping 1500 RS where as the for the Pulsar it costs around 700-800 Rs only. BTW, What happened? I mean reason of buying all these parts?

Might be he switched off the engine @ 135 Kmph super downhill.

141 is downhill so doesn't count.
Been above 130 many times.
But the best part is doing 124 kph in 4th gear at somewhat ~11.3 krpm. Bike vibrates as hell, warning light blinks madly and you can still feel some torque. Heavenly!
^All above is when crouching of course. You won't find any sticker on my windshield because when I crouch I have to look through it.

Bike isn't performing the same. I've been using it only once in a two weeks nowdays.

Xionite has put an R15 fairing on his ug3 pulsar and he has reached to 148 many times without much efforts.

So do you mean that your 130ish is 120 ish ??? still 10kmph less :P
Any ways I had an R15 alongside, which was clocking 148 that time. (Though I don't know how much error they have)

Though is your bike allright now ??? we can go for a pulsar spin some day then


Same here, been above 130 many times. Though never tried 124 at 4th, will try it this time

Yup..All working fine.
Ya sure, lavasa is just a hand away... Would love to do a night run, when there are no lights... Corner corner and some more corners...

Let me come back from ahmedabad, fosho

guy's i'm an owner of ug3 pulsar now..............
i bought it second handed
and my question is that, is it worth to invest money on k&n air filter or ngk iridium plugs in my bike.................
if yes which one is better


??????????????????????????????

its not that good...stock replacement kn filters are better..try to keep it as stock..iridium plugs are good for starting and such things. no performance changes i think.
