Re: Pulsar 200 NS Owners Review and Experiences

Well I really feel sad when I hear about someone's accident.
And god bless you.
But a question in my mind, that how many km did you clocked that you changed it?
And how much did it cost?

Re: Pulsar 200 NS Owners Review and Experiences

Yes bro very much better in gods grace. Thanks.. As i was wearing my helmet my head was spared....
I just want people to understand its not that great of a tyre as how people brag about it.....
Now that i have said my testimony, everybody who own this will be extra careful.

Re: Pulsar 200 NS Owners Review and Experiences

That's good work bro I hope other will understand the point

Re: Pulsar 200 NS Owners Review and Experiences

Thanks Bro Im almost healed and back in form...
I have run 14,000 kms with these tyres. And im very good in cornering. I got shocked when i slipped down and landed with this situation(Awkward before the crowd)..
I didnt even cross 50kmph when it happened. Luckily it was nearby my home....

Re: Pulsar 200 NS Owners Review and Experiences

Ya these michellin tyres aren't that great on dry but good on wet.I agree with u on it.someone who has a good cornering skill and good experience with these tyres can pretty much guess it.one of my friend with NS had the same tyres.he felt twice until he changed it .

Re: Pulsar 200 NS Owners Review and Experiences

Oh so you changed that just after purchasing the bike [emoji28]
Well no worry bro everyone learns from their mistake. [emoji6]

Re: Pulsar 200 NS Owners Review and Experiences

Re: Pulsar 200 NS Owners Review and Experiences

I've seen this video it was a horrible accident [emoji29]
And sad to hear abt u bro Tg ur safe
I thought streets were good tyres for dry and wet conditions and specially cornering but i was wrong [emoji19] [emoji19] [emoji19]

Re: Pulsar 200 NS Owners Review and Experiences

If u people closely watch this video you will find that his motorcycles' side stand was the real cause of accident.

Re: Pulsar 200 NS Owners Review and Experiences

I too saw that!
Horrifying [emoji26]
But yes not corner of road is meant for cornering. [emoji18]
There are race track designed for that purpose.[emoji41]

Re: Pulsar 200 NS Owners Review and Experiences

Waiting for a comprehensive review of throttle assist with pros and cons [emoji6]

Re: Pulsar 200 NS Owners Review and Experiences

Just now read about your incident. Hope you are doing well by now. It's not the injury that takes time to heal, but the incident that takes a life time to heal. I've tried many corners at about decent speeds say 70-80, only on practiced or known roads. Also I will check for any traffic and the tarmac condition such as dry, not melted, gravels. Under a good tarmac roads with elevated cornering, the cornering will give real fun with 100% safety. But that's hard to find in Indian roads.

But though you are good at taking corners, still bad roads, polished surfaces, melted road surface or some debris can also lead to losing grip. To demonstrate this, I tried small angle cornering on some flat but on concrete road and I could easily feel the loss of traction and the tire skid when the lean angle was about ~40 deg. Apart from tires, we have to estimate the roads very well. But I doubt the quality of the tires. Did you check the tire condition?, threads, grooves. etc. How good or bad it is compared to new ones?. And do you lock rear wheels always?. I used to do that for fun and now I'm more careful in NOT doing this anyhow considering the consequences...

And it's the god's grace along with Helmet and speed that helped reducing the impact. If you had taken a corner with high speed, the impact would have been more. Thanking lord. Ride safe and take corners next time on safe but known roads.

Re: Pulsar 200 NS Owners Review and Experiences

okay, so I got my throttle assist yesterday. I couldn't stop myself from using it as it was something very new. First many thanks to [MENTION=79049]Narayanan[/MENTION], otherwise I'd have never known about this. At first scared a bit as anything that prevents the throttle play is always risky. Now,

Pros:
1. Does it work?, Ooh, Yes it does work as the name suggests
2. Easy to fix it or remove it. Took ~10 secs to fix it, same to remove or change position
3. Does stick well and gives good feedback
4. Works as intended, able to apply the pressure from wrist to keep throttle in position

Cons:
1. Quality is okay-ish. I bought it for ~250 and okay. 400 and above seems too much
2. No logo or anything. Just a plain plastic which has some elastic character and retains it's position after stretching
3. Product availability is very less.

So, guys. It works just great as expected, but on one condition...!!

Yes, it is only as good as you take it on highways. Tried on city ride today while coming to my office. On half way, I had to remove it . It obstructs the hand a lot no matter which position you fix, extreme left or right or center. While riding in traffic, this is definitely not the one you would like to stick out of the throttle. Most of the traffic rides, I encountered a revved shift (that is keeping the throttle a bit up while applying clutch). This is most annoying thing

But tried on a highway about 6 km. According to my present fixed position, I was able to ride continuously at 70 kph with just the wrist held on that and my right fingers where flat over the throttle and brake lever. Now that is what one would love to have on highway

Final words, this thing will really help you on long rides and safer only. But on city rides, its a pain and might put you in trouble letting you to rev your engine hard.
