    consider this..1 rider 70kg - 6th gear - 100kmph shows engine =6000rpm
    2 riders 140kg - 6th gear - at 100kmph shows engine speed = 6000rpm and not 5000 or 7000.

    when I had the R15, it never crossed 130kmph with pillion, but the engine rpm will be the same when a solo rider hits 130kmph in the same gear.
    How's tat man?? Tats impossible.......You are breaking the laws of physics.. Where is the extra work needed by the engine to pull that extra weight go?? f thats the case then any vehicle can pull any loads with ease... I can literally feel the loss in power when i drive with pillion,The way it pulls when i drive solo is totally different. Maybe the fact that the time it takes to reach that speed is correct. Will check it out next time

    • ^^ that is lot of science in one post but I hope it makes the fact easy to understand
      Just because you haven't seen it doesnt mean its impossible...expect the unexpected.

        The only variables that affect that ratio are the sprocketing, tire size and worn out clutch plates.

        Cheers and I'm aiming for this baby, even though the P200NS has been launched here at a pretty good price (the same of P220) I still think I'll grab the R15. Then maybe if the P350 is FI and proves to be worthy, I might get that one but let's wait and see.

        hmmm. will test this myself properly next time i go for ride.

          Dude the extra weight will effect the acceleration but not the rpm once u reach that speed. It's simple the engine needs to run at certain rpm to run at pull the bike at a perticular speed. Once that speed it attained, what extra pull are u talking about from there. Engine running rpm is prortional to vehicle speed. The only thing that makes a difference is the gear ratio and nothing else. We are not talking about acceleration or decelaration. It's strictly constant speed.

            SO am i stressing the engine if i ride with pillion So as to pull that extra weight to same speed at same RPM ?? Does it affect if am in the Run-In period???

              No, you're not estressing the engine, as long as you stay within the RPM range you decided not to pass during the run in /brake in period.
              Do not click it unless you have an open mind...

              • Your stressing of the engine depends upon acceleration . How fast or slow your accelerating to the specific speed. Not at what speed your running. So if you thing that since within running period the rpm needs to be below 5k and nothing else matters, then you would be wrong. The time u take to reach that rpm also effects your run-in. the basic fact is at the end the rider decides how to build the bikes character. You cannot make 2 bikes exactly the same.

                  OK, so u are Saying that If one uses a lean Setting , then the Speeds done at a particular RPM, in a particular gear differs with the one which uses a Richer (or say more efficient) setting??
                  I say this because there is difference of speeds in my bike and that of my Friend (P200NS) at a particular RPM, in a particular gear..

                  I too want to knw in detail About this. While my NS was in Run-In period (was abt 500kms then), once i did a fast Acceleration (about 8K RPM) with a heavy pillion of 90+kgs. And now when my Bike's ODO shows 1500kms, it has lot of vibrations on all gears (except the 6th one) once I go above 6K in the RPM.

                  I might be thinking wrong, I but i have developed a notion that the vibes are the Aftereffects of that acceleration with the heavy pillion!!

                    Yes, its not a good idea to ride with a pillion during the break-in period...its only a matter of 1k km anyway.

                    Couple of tips for engine break-in:
                    - warm up the engine before you ride.
                    - keep varying the rpms.
                    - lugging the engine is bad (eg: going at 40kmph in 6th gear, keeping rpm too low, going up an incline in a high gear etc).
                    - no hard accelaration but at the same time no babying the engine.
                    - the run-in rpm values given in the manual isn't gospel but is a general guideline, occasional short bursts are good.
                    - use engine braking.
                    - gradually raise the rpm limit as you clock in the miles.

                      No Shibadip, one such instance should not make such a big impact, unless you rode for a several minutes in that same condition. issues that happen due to improper run-in are usually engine specific. This issue might be external unless the vibes from the engine are large enough in magnitude that chassis is not able to absorb it. So the conclusion is it may or may not be because of the run-in but you'll have to observe it while riding whether it's actually a fault from engine or the chassis' not doing it's job properly.
