      Aluminum rusting? I'm confused, aluminum oxidizes but it does not eat the metal like in case of iron, in fact, the oxidized layer helps to protect the metal.
      I am back!

          Your definitely right bro but i was talking in general. No ones going to go 60&80 on 1st gear right

            Thanks...
            Yes, I too was suprised with the mileage. And talking about mileage, today I filled up with Rs. 100 petrol i.e. 1.40 litres after hitting reserve, and that petrol lasted for 54 amazing kilometres, before hitting reserve again.

            But this was achieved after, not exceeding 60 kmph speeds and no sudden acceleration. But missed out the fun.

              Apart from the roads, be prepared for the scorching heat. Take loads of fluid and glucose.

                So new buyers, be aware of this idea used by people at bajaj!
                U mean your mixture was rich because turning the air screw anticlockwise allows more air and not fuel

                  [QUOTE=shek15;1069337]Oh good idea, Didn't think of that. Btw its 5 and a half turn from full closed(From the leanest side)

                  Its not always the same for all bikes
                  It depends on engine condition, how clean ur pilot air and fuel passages are and condition of ignition system also depends if your using a different octane fuel

                    Isn't it obvious. Engine braking increases the wear rate, but this is needed during run-in. Hence the suggestion of using engine braking.


                    Well don't want to drag this topic more. Has been beaten to death in many threads. So thought of sharing what 'I' think is good.
                    Peace out.
                    I think youll are a little confused guys
                    Engine braking may put a bit of load on your chain if you accelerate and decelerate with quickly
                    But it doesnot damage your engine because when you close the throttle, there is not much air and fuel going into your engine only the amount that is supplied at idle and slightly more due to vaccum so there is no load on your engine but if your at high speed and you gear down to quickly then your engine may redline or even if it doesnt redline the rpm will go up but as long as you gear down only one gear at a time and wait till the rpm drops its not a problem
                    If you want better engine braking, kill the engine and open the throttle full

                      Aren't we opening fuel lines here & wasting valuable petrol/gasoline?

                          Yes you should not let the rpm touch the red line while using engine brake so it has to be one at a time and you're good.So killing the engine and opening throttle is it really necessary? While panic braking i think it'll take some extra second in a situation when every second counts.I ain't got XP on that but for me with the front and rear brake with a combination of engine brake has always been flawless while panic braking.

                            I am so sorry. I am new to this forum so I still haven't figured out everything yet. I too view it from my phone itself. I will figure it out and be careful from next time.

                                Hey guys i have a little query, yesterday had a top speed run alongwith Duke 200.
                                Initially Duke has better acceleration but I was able to pass it at around 135-140 kmph and we checked it 4 times and everytime I was able to pass it. So does our NS has higher top speed?
                                And it was on almost 0 traffic road.
