Firstly tight the screw lightly and then rotate the screw 3 times(360degree).or you can rotate the screw 6 times at 190 degree(half turn).you will get mileage around 38-40kmpl.

By tight you mean fully turned clockwise? I read on a forum (forgot the name) that carb tuning and the number turns are different for every motorcycle even if they they are using same carbs.

Re: Pulsar 200 NS Owners Review and Experiences

Yes fully tight (be gentle while tightening the screw and please don't even put little force to tight)

Done the tuning, found the sweet spot just little above the 2.0 . Now the issue is erratic idle. For e.g. when the engine is not warm it starts normally as it should but when I go for a short round (1 km) when I arrive home after that the rpm needle suddenly jumps up and the rpm increases.

How much is it jump up by bro ? The cold idle could be around 1350 which could and does go up to 1500 1600 when the engine is hot.

Honestly, i have never been able to fine tune my carb manually and hence prefer the CO method of tuning it. Have it set at 1.6.

You're right. My NS runs perfect at 1.5 turns

Can anyone give a whole DIY procedure for tunning the carb and when to stop turning the fuel screw. I want only the procedure clockwise and anticlockwise thing I know. I am facing issues like erratic idle and hiccups. Also got the carb cleaned and checked the diaphragm also but still the hiccups are there through out the rev range except between 4k-5k rpm band. This time I want to tune it myself.

Either you can do this -

1. Raise idle RPM to about 2,500 by idle screw
2. Turn the AFR screw clockwise till the engine stutters and barely keeps going. This would generally happen at around 1,050 to 1,100 rpm
3. At that point start turning the screw anti clockwise and you would notice the rpm begins to rise again. Make sure to turn 1/8th screw with each twist.
4. There would be a point when the the rpm reaches max and does not rise any more. Any more turning leads to a decrease in rpm due to overload of fuel.
5. That constant point is your sweet spot.
6. Turn idle screw to bring idle down to 1,350
7. Sit on your bike and ride off. :thumbup::thumbup:

Or -

Simply ride your bike to a good ASC and have the CO set at 1.6

I prefer the second way. I know I am a lazy bum at that !!.

The correct setting will lie around half to one turn anticlockwise from where it stutters, because the stuttering is due to too much misfire caused by a very lean mixture.

Thanks bhai. Whenever I get the tunning done from those SVC chaps they always screw it up and the result is low pickup, bike doesn't start at one crank even when the engine is hot, screwed up mileage.

Re: Pulsar 200 NS Owners Review and Experiences

Means, I have to set the idle at 1500 rpm when the engine is 'hot'..?? Wouldn't it be too low and cause cold start issues? Asking this because I keep it at 1600 or 1750 rpm when the engine is hot. Is it correct or should I move back to 1500 rpm?

One more doubt that before the SVC screwed up my carbs setting. Means when the carb was untouched and the bike was about 6 months old, in the morning when I used to crank the engine the bike idled at about 1400 rpm and after 4-5 secs it came back to about 1150 to 1200 rpm I think it is set in the ecu for the cold starts that initially bike will idle at higher rpms and then come back to normal. But now this doesn't happen in my bike I noticed this 'feature' in my brother's avenger 220 also.

Re: Pulsar 200 NS Owners Review and Experiences

Wow...Writing on this forum after a long time. Need some help with the spark plug guys. Planning to change all of my stock plug to NGK CR9EIX. Heard it improve your throttle response making it more crispier and planning to change my dot 3 brake fluid to motul dot 4 but waiting for the steel braided line from RS 200. Any info to be spare about that?
