    Well i would really recommend to go for a naked bike over a faired as you are just beginning your riding passion.
    And yes fz and gixxer are quite good in their category.

      So its our advice buy a 2nd hand fz for 6 months and then buy a new NS fi and if you're lucky enough you may buy a CS200 [emoji6]
      CS200? How can u be so sure about it. Even NS FI is not a confirmed news.

      Pace your Ride the way to you want to Pace your Life. Both can be dangerous if taken too fast - all the time...!

          Yes it does, but only after 20,000 KM's or one year time.


          To replace/top-up the coolant, buy one bottle (1 liter) Motul Motocool expert.

            Some research on AFR screw, town/city riding
            2.5 - 30-33kmpl, beast in low revs and midrange
            2.0 - 33-35, powerful in low revs and midrange
            1.5 - 35-38, power in low revs is a bit less, midrange almost same
            1.0 - 38-40, power less in low and midrange
            0.75 - 'missing' starts, did not ride to check mileage
            0.5 - engine stalls at 1500 rpm, idle speed required to keep engine running: 2000

            Present setting: 1.5, mileage around 38.

              That's one hell of good information..... A benchmark maybe. Great man.... You are ns maniac [emoji2] [emoji106]

              I guess 2.5 is stock.??
              I'm a bit skeptical to try, but now my hands are itching [emoji14]. I will have to find my current setting.... It's stock setting, but my mileage is 32(when revved hard 90% of times) and 38(when driven less than 55kph)

                  It may take more time.... Right now Bajaj has come with V series vintage model 150 series. Either cs400 or 200ns must be released to compete with Apache 200 and BMWG310r beauty beast. This is expected by April 2016

                    But as much i know these setting differs on every other bike.
                    I mean the same AFR setting of yours in another ns might give a different result. [emoji54] [emoji54]

                      Yes it differs but these settings are pretty close to those on my bike.[emoji4]

                        True to an extent. If I am following these business leaders correctly, I am sure CS400 or another NS 200 n above will only come late in 2016. These companies allow each other to earn n gain market share for some time. All the products have a schedule for launch and somehow these are synchronised amongst the competitors. Its called 'interdependency'.

                          Correct. The screw is for adjusting the mix that comes from the pilot jet (size 15). Now this size itself can vary a bit in manufacture, or the hole may get a little bigger over time. There are some other factors inside the carb and the engine (condition) which affect (or decide) the mixture for a specific bike. 2.5 to 1.5 is just a guideline.

                            Hahaha....true. Thats also about how much one does fine tune. 1/2 tune could end up 1/3 for another guy and there starts the prob. Best is to find their current setting and begin with....


                            Many knows, but saying again.

                            To do that, fully rotate to close and carefully measure how much turns u took to reach...now do ur tuning... If things go wrong, close fully again and rewind back to stock...... My svc mechanic told me once, but warned me, dont come back saying you ve lost pickup bla bla bla.... [emoji13] [emoji13]

                            I'd better leave it for now

                              Damn i love u for this !! I think you just found a solution to my issues of dull pick up at the lower revs. My carb is tuned at 1.5 i think. I will take it and get it up to 2.0 and hopefully it should rectify stuff.

                              However the mileage which you have mentioned at 2.0 is what i get at 1.5. How much do you reckon that would change ? I regularly do 120 k runs on the highway every morning when riding to office.

                              Btw is this the CO setting or the turns ?

                                Couple of thing s i want to know brother considering you have done the basic troubleshooting like Chain slackness check etc ...
                                Gaurav whats the Kilometers reading in ODO?
                                When was the last time you tuned your carb?(Kiloemeters would help)
                                When was the last time the clutch plate was changed?(Kiloemeters would help)
                                When was the last time you changed the Diapharm?(Kiloemeters would help)
