      From my personal observation on my own machine it seems that you are having a very lean mixture.
      Few determinants of Lean mixture are:
      1)Knocking from the engine at specific rpms or while accelerating quickly
      2)Bike fails to gain its top speed or the top speed attained is in a slow
      Manner
      3)engine gets very heated even though one has changed engine oil recently
      If your not having cold start problem then the fuel supplied by the pilot jet is doing its job perfectly but mainjet and the throttle valves are failing to push enough air and fuel into the engine causing a lean mixture even though your getting an avg mileage instead of a good one.

      Try getting hold of a good mechanic and seek if the carb/air filter requires cleaning or replacement.
      In ucal ug4 carbs provided by the bajaj the rubber valves gets damaged after a considerable period of time and requires replacement.
      Although it was what I faced on my bike and once I replaced the rubber valves inside the carb it was all good to go.
      Let me know if this solves your problem

      Good points there mate. John there remains very little doubt that u r running lean mix. Have this addressed ASAP.

        When I am with a pillion-
        1. Power is not being delivered properly. Even after pulling the accelerator completely, rpm is increasing very slowly.
        2. Over a bumpy road, I am getting this feeling that rear wheel is wobbling and is reluctant to move, especially when going from a higher to a lower surface.

        What could be the issue?

          1. Check the air-filter. It might be blocked by dust. If the problem still persists, check the carburretor and the spark plug.

          2. Check tyre pressure. Sometimes a worn out tyre also causes wobbling.
          If thats not the problem, then put the bike on centre stand. Try to move the tyre side-wise. If it moves, then the bearing is broken and you'll need to change it. It is also indicated by a creaking sound while rolling the wheel.
          The sense of freedom these two wheels give can never be matched by anything else...

            Hey guys...One more query.. Does heat cause the tachometer needle to go crazy? Today I was returning home on the highway at around 2.30pm. Weather was hot but cloudy and engine was moderately hot. Initially, when I raised the engine beyond 6k rpm, tacho went straight beyond the redline region and came back if I went below 6k. Then, it went the same way if the engine was running. If the engine was switched off, tacho was normal. Two things noted were- needle was crazy when ignition switch was on and it was normal when ignition switch was off. The next is that the bike misfired when the needle was crazy. And severe power loss was seen when the needle was running around. The running needle was seen later randomly at varied rpm range(not only above 6k) along with power hiccups accompanied with it. After reaching home, I went for a short ride and there was no issue. Any ideas as to why it occurred?

                I was reading the sprockets thread, read that duke200's rear can be used for undergearing and p220's for overgearing. Anyone with any experience?

                  Best thing would be to go to your mechanic at bajaj. But first brother if your bike is doing perfect without any problem don't get it open until and unless you really want it to replace a certain part.
                  I have realised on this we go for one work and end up getting more work done on the bike.

                    The issue was solved guys.. It was just water in the socket issue.. But the low pickup+knocking issue still persists.. Hope to solve it one day..

                      Thank you so much for your reply Arjun,
                      I too follow the policy "If it ain't broke, don't fix it"
                      But here the scheduled maintenance prescribes changing the Engine Foundation Silent bush.
                      What to do here now ?

                        Generally, rubber bushes become hard over time. If you feel the bike vibes more and the engine mount point rubber hard(sometimes cracked too), ask them to replace it. Else it's not necessary.

                          If those are the engine mounting Bushes, I guess it will be a terribly laborious job to change those.

                            From my guess, it must be the mounting point behind the engine block, where swing arm is attached. I'll clarify and confirm it soon..

                              In my guess,I think its the Swingarm Collar with the Nylon Bushes.
