    Things that i liked about my bike.

    1) The way it looks , everybody stares me on road !!
    2) It has very good handling awesome in traffic.
    3) Its a cornering machine and it begs u drive at higher speed but i cant ( Run
    in period)
    4) It is very comfortable , and has a good riding posture.
    5) Built quality is really good , paint job is nice.
    6) I am not facing any kind of heating issue.
    7) Its a new bike still i am not facing any kind of problem in the bike
    everything is perfect.

    Few things i dont like :

    1) The horns are weak.
    2) Yeah my bike also sways to the left when i leave my hand.
    3) When i sat on the pillion seat i felt the vibration but very little it is acceptable not a problem at all !!

    Everybody who are going to buy this beast please dont believe @rohan200ns he is misleading all the people , he cannot be satisfied with any bike.

    pulsar 200ns is best bike available in the market i am very happy with my bumble bee it is awesome

    and @rohan200ns u need to change your name it does not suits u at all and u should not buy pulsar 200ns definately !! , may god bless u !!
    good one bro ..........the person who belive only jap.......shit should not be indian

      That someone would be me

      and i do swear by God, the Idea was purely mine, and NOT overheard/stolen from any1 else.
      So @ BAJAJ AUTO LETS DISCUSS ABOUT PATENT RIGHTS

        Well Dimpy pal, I simply love your avatar in this forum (Super Commando Dhruv... it was eons since I last saw that pic!!). All the more, you coming from an RE ownership and since this would be your (if you end up buying it ) first Bajaj motorcycle, I personally would be very interested in reading your views. Please do share as such a view gives a different perspective to the product.
        Thx Bro.
        Well.. can't tell you how much i am eager to buy a bike.. but.. i am kind of person who usually falls in love with bike.. I have gone alone on very peaceful places.. sat there alone for hours only with my bike.. and listen to my fav. tracks.... that ends up builing a relation ship with the bike.. the reason I am not buying a bike in hurry is coz.. i m going to keep it *atleast* for 6-7 years.. so I don't want to make a wrong decision.. and.. same eagerness i have to put a review about the bike.. ..
        And yes.. "Nagraj" is another option.. here is some guy.. @Doga .. he also has a nice one.. but its just that I didn't want to copy that one.
        If you have never done a mistake in your life, it means you have never tried anything new.

            Advice is a form of nostalgia.
            Dispensing it is a way of fishing the past from the disposal, wiping it off, painting over the ugly parts and recycling it for more than it's worth.

            • TD

              My Dealer had called yesterday. He said that if I want Black color then he can give me the bike on Monday itself but since I want Red, I'll have to wait for another week

              I went there and asked for a TD the guy gave me a Blue one, started it for me and started revving it hard (standstill) . Then he said don't worry sir, its only for TD, I have attached photos of what might be the VIN.

              This is not my first bike so I unconsciously started comparing 200Ns with my Fiero (I know its Apples and Oranges but couldn't help noticing the differences). A few points I noted:

              First the Negatives:
              1. It is not as vibe free as my fiero, having said that in comparison to my Yezdi Roadking its vibe free
              Its negligible at the handle but feels on the seat.
              2. The bike sounds a lot more than my Fiero. - Expected
              3. The rear foot-pegs are flimsy. If anyone's vehicle were to unintentionally graze by the foot-pegs in a parking lot (which happens a lot in B'lore) then I would say it will get bent or might even break.
              4. The saree guard does not have place for people sitting one-sided. Where will they keep their other leg? I know its a sports oriented bike and everything but then why give saree guard at all??
              An occasional sis/mom/relative (wearing saree) is bound to happen.... Option: Not sell my Fiero?
              5. Turning radius is sooo big. Its probably twice the turning radius as my Fiero, I felt like I was turning a Lorry.
              6. They should've provided it with an optional ABS, its way linear than my friends Pulsar 180 but I still felt it should have been there with both wheels as disk-brakes n all. I know about the investment n money n everything but hey i'm just a consumer who's wishing them

              Now, the above minor points are just In My Opinion. I'm still desperately waiting for my RED 200NS (cash payment done) and all the above mentioned points are going to iron out over time.

              Second: I don't need to talk about the positives, they are all over this thread and they are all true.

              After the TD I saw a guy driving a new rtr180, I kinda started laughing out aloud making him think I was mad. Wait till he sees my beast

              p.s: can anyone decipher the VIN for me, if i have taken the right photo..

                    Mate, that's the spirit, thanks a lot for considering my suggestion as I'm sure taking note of the VIN numbers of the test rides and posting them here will ensure that upcoming buyers don't get those bikes as their own.

                    In this case the most helpful one is the one engraved in the chassis as it is not modifiable while the other one which seemed to be a sticker can be easily changed.

                    • Called my dealer now... first lot is arriving this Saturday.. deliveries from Monday.

                      Bad part is, she said there is no Blue color..

                      If you want to get earlier, go with either red or Yellow... (a big no to black... personal.. no offence to anyone)

                      So my mind is kinda....... you know...

                      Going with Yellow now.
                      She doesn't know when next lot will arrive..

                      So what ya thinking guys? What will be average time between first and second lots?

                      Wait for next batch or go with Yellow?

                          Nice review.
                          Proper mention of the negatives along with valid reasons. NOTHING EXAGGERATING

                          I wish my role reverses in real world as well.

                          @sandy, thnks a lot for the VIN pictures. Now I know where to look for the VIN, when I get my hands on the beast!!
                          However, in Cars, its generally of 17 digits. But given here in the 2nd PIC are only 15 digits, and that too the last digit is $ which is kinda odd..
                          Senior guys please throw some light.


                          @JK, if Blue is the colour for u, then stick to it, coz u have to stay along with ur bike for years. A rushed decision now can bring sorrows later.
                          Go back, think quietly, if you can live with yellow, and then decide

                            Its doesn't matter the color... but I've told everybody, my friends, family etc... that I've going with Blue.

                            I like yellow... its an eye catcher... especially in my college.. when classes are over, guys zooming in bikes.... crowded... imagine Yellow in that situation.. treat for eyes...

                            Going to showroom now..will talk to them.

                              Ok Bro, I some how got the impression that Blue was the colour for you.
                              If you like yellow, then why wait further??

                              • Once it is done you need to submit a request for no claim bonus certificate with xerox copy of your updated RC book. Insurance company will issue NO CLIAM BONUS certificate with % of no claim discount. You then need to submit it to the insurance company who will insure your P200NS and you will get discount of 20% on your new premium.
                                My previous insurer was Bajaj Allianz, my dealer is giving Tata AIG or United Insurance. I think it would be prudent to go with what the dealer is giving instead of going through hassles.
                                Cheers Bro.

                                I have booked from Kalyani Bajaj, Mekhri Circle. Been for a Test ride yesterday, the deliveries will commence on the last week of this month or first week of august. Will make the payment over this weekend and wait.
