    Re: Pulsar 200 NS Owners Review and Experiences

    As everyone has mentioned, either mrf messeter or mrf revz s. Go to mrf authorized store and buy it from there instead online as online seller may send you old stock. I have used both personally and they are really good, faced no punctures at all

    29 to 32 is the right pressure. The second question is waste of money, waste of time, and it's better to upgrade to a dual channel bike.

    Secondly NS are front only single channel unit of the RS200 and not dual channel.

    But revz s is puncher prone i had ~20+ punchers on my revz s in 25k kms [emoji1787][emoji1787][emoji1787]

    Hi Bro,

    you can check out the MRF Revz series. They came as stock on my R15 V2 and I have completed 30 K kms on them without any problems.
    They provide very good grip on dry and well as wet roads. My rear one has 7 punctures over the time and apart from loosing little bit of air (I check and re-fill air every 2 weeks, so not a big issue) it is still working fine. I hope to get another couple of thousand kms on them before I finally change them. I must admit that I am sedate rider and do not ride aggressively, that might be the reason for such a long life.

    If you want to upgrade
    mrf masseter is a good optons, I think it is updated model of Revz series, so a little bit more expensive and a little better. A worthy update in my opinion.

    Both these models are tubeless radials.

My brothers discover 125 clutch feels so nice and easy to hold and release compared to my bike!

    Re: Pulsar 200 NS Owners Review and Experiences

    Hello guys - I am new to XBHP and the owner of a BRAND NEW NS 200. Buying the bike was predicated on a few different factors, but I do not regret the decision. The choice was torn between NS 200 and the RTR 200. I would have honestly preferred the RTR but not because the NS is an inferior bike by any measure. Bajaj sweetened the deal for me by converting me as a full customer with their loan, and great service. I have been on the bike for two weeks and already clocked 500 kms ;-)

    I will be going for my first free service in a day or two, and will keep sharing my thoughts on the bike with this forum, and hopefully meet some amazing interesting people here. I am from Mumbai and always keen on meeting people, maybe even taking short day rides when possible.

    Thanks for including me in this great big forum for automotive lovers.

    Cheers!!

    Any specific reason for up-sizing? I am more of a city rider, can it give me some advantage over stock size?

    Also can you suggest tires of other brands? As I am totally frustrated with the way MRF is handling my request, now for over 2 months. That too, multiple dealers.

    Thanks in advance.
