    And yeah, tyres do need to get them changed, have been told by various mechanics when getting punctures repaired. Too many cracks on sides now.

    Thanks again!

    Get your T stem bearings replaced.

    Need a help regarding an issue with my bike. My handle doesn’t turn freely. I have found two angles at which it kind of gets “stuck” and I need to apply little more force to turn the handle on either side. This results in applying consistent pressure by hands in handling the bike.

    Has anyone encountered such an issue? I got it checked by two mechanics, first one said that there is an issue related to the “cone” in handle and said it will cost a few thousands.
    Second one simply loosened the handle a bit. Latter seemed to work for a few days but then the problem reoccurred.

    Bike details:
    Pulsar NS200 2014
    24.5k covered
    Stock tyres
    Motilal Oil
    Recently got the fork adjusted in servicing as it used to wobble on hard braking.
    No other modification.

    Please let me know if someone is aware of what exactly could be the issue.

    Thanks
    Abhishek

    Looks like the infamous carb diaphragm slider issue. The slider is getting stuck. This happens to almost all NS carbs during their lifetime. Get you mechanic to check the slide mechanism at higher RPMs.

    Change the slide if it is faulty. It is recommended throughout the forum that incase such issue occurs it is better if we change the entire carb assembly instead of the slider as the issue may resurface again and again.
    I doubt the carb because as soon as I shift down to 5th gear it again builds up the lost speed and that sense of power loss is gone. has this been a carb issue i think this should have happened across the gears for that particular RPM.
    Please correct me if I am wrong.

    Disconnected the TPS meter was going haywire right from mild throttling..
    With TPS connected occasional RPM spikes above 4~5k was noticed.
    I hope TPS's potentiometer gets disconnected after 4k RPM
    Will throw in a new one and will update....
    Thanks bro...

    If not, you know where to look.

    Recently I'm facing issue with my tachometer. Every time I open throttle, even slightly. The tachometer needle goes haywire. It just goes crazy touches redline and returns back maybe after a second showing the actual reading. Happens Everytime regardless of engine temperature.
    Any clues and leads regarding this issue will be helpful....
    Thanks in advance

    In other news, I am itching for a small ride in the Mumbai area - day ride... Anyone?

    Please check the Tyre sidewall. There will be a kpa xxx number mentioned in all tyres. A kpa 250 translates to just under 33 psi. Google convert if the kpa figure is different on your Tyre.

    What is the typical tyre pressure you keep for NS 200? Also has anyone explored the possibility of fitting ABS to the rear tyre for the NS?
