The problem should be with the carb jet. Upsizing jet means you buy a bigger sized jet for main jet and tune the carb accordingly. Until this is done properly, the bike will not perform as earlier. BTW, k&n allows more dust into the engine along with air which can ruin the engine earlier. Stick to stock for best performance/reliability combo.

Cooked the rear wheel bearings. No idea how that happened. I'll change them tomorrow.

Turn the AFR screw anti clock wise to let more petrol in.

Well someone's here after a long time.. How's your steed bro? Why did the bearing give up? Any symptoms prior to it? Did the wheel lockup?

Re: Bajaj Pulsar 180 (All Versions)

You can do it yourself only, I don't have a picture now its the brass screw on carb, just turn it using a screw driver.

Hello Sagar,
I too got my P180 fitted with K&N, tried to adjust the AFR screw myself but ended messing things up. You better take your bike to an experienced mechanic, or else you might damage the engine. And finding such a mechanic won't be an easy task. BTW I don't find K&N any good, it just makes the bike more maintenance hungry. Would perform well initially but would deteriorate over time. I am planning to move back to the stock air filter.

It is more or less trial and error, it is around 2.5 turns from full close. Keep the setting and check the spark plugs after driving few hundred km they should be brown in color not black or very clean.
Alternatively you can go to a service center which has the CO testing machine and get it tuned from them or an experienced mechanic.

Revz s size on mrf site is 130/70 R17 TL whereas stock zapper c is 100/90-17, will it fit naturally? My bike p180 ug3/4 tyres (stock front zapper fs, 2.75/17 and rear zapper c) have developed cracks. This is mainly because bike was unused for years and tyres were exposed to Mumbai weather. I was also considering Michelin sporty. I'm not looking for any modifications to chain setting and minimum FE drop, if any. Any suggestions? Thanks!
