    And i touch upto 140 in 6 th gear at redline ..
    Low end has improved a bit and picks up quickly under load compared to stock ..
    I was just experimenting with it and quite happy with setup ..

    Good attempt. D200 has 43, should give you better pickup at low end, and still amazed that you get 140. Is yours 2012 batch?, then you must apply 8% speede error calc as well . I possible can you share your max speed at each gear after this sprocketing? (When you find a no-traffic, no-crazy people, no-rainy road and on your free time), Because I can theoretically calculate values, but want to see something real numbers.


    But is that a direct swap, I mean the fasteners?. I'm always worried about touching that, though I've wanted to.

    To provide grip on the the rear side of butt, I hope so

        I second that
        You can also prefer a 150 section as well, but I kept seeing some NS fit with bigger profile, but it didn't suit well, looks way too fattier and eats up more of the back side look, or remove your rear tire hugger (but you get into spoiling up your pillion, and also the bikes on your back :-P ) . 130'' is a perfect looking.

        I tried the foam, but it made the seat looked ugly and uneven so I cut removed everything (or maybe the guy didnt do properly)

        Or could be a warning that Pillion should be females (for a bike like this)

          Ya sure I'll do it ..
          Front sprocket is direct swap
          But for rear one you'll have to drill the holes to match the wheel hub ..
          Lower end pick up is amazing bike rolls off and gains speed effortlessly .. The downside frequent shifting through gears ..

          Other thing is since after coming to banglore the chain has started rusting .. No matter how much i clean and lube it rusting is there
          Clueless as to what to do

            I've got two questions.
            1) I've clocked just over 18,000 Kilometers on my Pulsar 200NS. The stock Eurogrip tyres don't inspire confidence anymore during cornering or in wet conditions. Looking for an upgrade. Any suggestions please? I've scrolled through 100s of pages on this forum. MRF, Pirelli, Michelin and then the sub models in them. Got confused!
            Requirement: I use the bike for daily commuting to office(Bangalore traffice and potholes!) and occasional weekend highway rides(mostly once a month). What tyres would suit my needs? I'm expecting good grip on both dry and wet roads, good handling and comfort. Budget - Around 5K for a set of front and rear(don't mind spending a bit more on top if the price is justified). It would also help to know if anyone has a good experience with any dealers in Bangalore(I stay in Marathalli)
            2) The seat hurts my bottom! Pillion comfort isn't that great either. I've been thinking from a long time to do something about it but haven't acted till now! I think I'm finally ready to get that sorted out. Any suggestions for that will be helpful as well
            Yes MRF is good.its pretty good actually.I also heard michellin is good but I wouldn't spend 7-8 k on tyres when already MRF is doing good job.
            I think opposite to Kalyan nagar bus stop in the outer ring road you will find MRF authorises shop

                Bangalore weather is terrible as its hot and humid once and after 5 minutes its breezing rain.
                Keep on cleaning the chain every 500 kms,that should be okay

                    Thanks, and please do also share your 0-100 numbers if possible (Am I asking too much? ).

                    Rusting in B'glre?, I was thinking differently. In Chennai, you know coastal region, salt mixed breeze and the humidity will always be high about 70% on average, even today 66% which makes the rusting process more faster than normal. My front disc plate has a layer of rust coating. I don't mind until it affects the bite.

                    This is one reason why resale value for bikes bought with Chennai registrations will sell for less cost compared to other south places (In my state TamilNadu). I remember many of my friends used to buy bikes form native and ship it to Chennai for this purpose.

                    Good tip, but I have not cleaned or lubed it apart from the 2 service periods , it's doing good.

                    MRF is good for dry but not for wet. But ok, keeping eyes sharp on wet roads is fine enough.
                    Look at those on Mojo, aren't they awesome?. Have you guys watched the video review of Mojo?. That twin light and exhaust and exhaust note, pirelli tires, LED tacho and 30nm of punchy mid stole some of my heart already

                        Hahaha, That weird is special. Do you think Duke looks beautiful?, no. It looks bold, strong, manly and well shaped but that ain't beauty. Is R15 beautiful?, yes. But does it look bold and strong like Duke, no... Well some might have a different perception. But in general there are almost no one who can't resist admiring the R15 beauty(Maybe lesser as it's old now).

                        Mojo gives a look of a very big bike (like a 600cc segment). All these days, we had been looking at pictures and now in a video shoot out, it came well. I hope in flesh, it will even be better. Waiting to do TD

                          Even today when i see an R15 v2.0 i still keep on looking at it.The rear looks so so beautiful.For me thats the best looking bike i can think off yet,heck even it looks better than TNT600i(But thats my choice)

                            Yup r15 is still the beauty even rc and rs looks inferior in design and beauty no 1 beat Yamaha in design and quality but duke doesn't look weird from any angle but mojo does well lets wait for the launch event and review from PowerDrift[emoji1]

                              Yes, but i hope you haven't had a chance to listen to its exhaust note [emoji2] , sounds soo good. One would just buy for that sound . even the tnt300 sound good.

                                Duke doesn't look weird for sure, but it doesn't make one admire like r15. Same goes for rs200, big, monster look, but unlike Duke/rc you look more than once, it makes your eye sore [emoji12] (i mean too many details, curves) sometimes dont please or make it pleasant. If RS,RC,dukr,R15 get closer to me, i will look at R15>duke>RC>RS, CBR150 is not even in the list :-)

                                R15 is the best looking and handling bike till to date.
