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.

220 180 150 Avengers have auto chock which engages and disengages automatically.. According to engine temp..
Ns misses out on this auto chock feature..
My bike grumbles at 1k during cold start but it starts in 1 crank no matter for how many days it has being lying idle..
After start in about a min or 2 rpm stays constant at 1500 rpm all the time no fluctuations at all..

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 !!.

CO set at 1.6 what is that? They have some tester or what? and I have heard that it needs to be at 2.5 for good mileage.

At present I am getting around 36 - 38 with all the rev and cruise at 80-90. The engine starts in one press in the morning and havce covered 4500 in odo. Time for tuning the carb???
What is the best FE I can expect at 1.6 and at what cruising range??

Hey bro,
Is the AS200 visor mounted on top of NS200 visor?

How did you manage to drill holes on NS visor? and clamps have you made to make it stiff.

Can you share few closeup shots of the visor??

Thanks a ton!

You are supposed to use choke and not screw the AFR or idle to get a smooth cold start!

36-38 at 80-90 riding is good, and if I were you I wouldn't mess with the present setting because it's pretty good.

Yes bhai... they have a CO tester which is basically like the same machine used for the PUC certificate. the only difference is the place from where it should measured. The PUC guys will ram the tester up the NS's non existent exhaust whereas the carb CO tuning needs to be done from the 10 bolt located on the exhaust pipe section in the front once it leaves the engine.

The FE for each bike depends on the riding conditions - traffic conditions, road conditions, the rider habits etc so cannot really comment on that. If you are getting about 36 - 38 at cruising 80 I dunno what would satisfy you ... grrrrrr

LOL ! I get about 32 - 35 but thats mostly because I do a lot of highway riding and do triple digits most of the times.

Done with the valve settings.

Earlier, i bought a used ns200 for 57k ,13000km on odo & quite satisfied with it .

Now my questions are ,

The steering feels too heavy ,is it due to cone set or wide Tyre?

Vibrations at rider & pillion seats approximately at 5000 - 7000 rpm
How to minimize them ?

Seats are too hard , hurts a lot any modification s ?

wind blast at 80kmph above is too much , any solution? Large windshield ?

Sorry i am asking too much but i have only 2-3days for DIY after that my brother will take it .

Anyway these r the diy carried out

Time and again I have had this thought... the choke also lets in excess fuel into the mixture and so does opening up the throttle. The why should we avoid the throttle while startup whereas a choke is fine.

as we all know, there are two kind of jets in carb, main and pilot. afr which we set has nothing to do with main, it works on pilot, same goes for choke.
when we open up throttle, for 1/6th of throttle (or may be less), it drags fuel from pilot, which is too less to flood the carb but enough to start the bike around 2k rpm. slightly more twist than rough quantity mentioned above, main jet kicks in and it might overflow carb.
since it is very difficult to know at which point it might get overflown, its better to avoid throttle and use choke which pulls precise amount of fuel from pilot jet.

hope this clears your doubt.

[MENTION=52249]jhbalaji[/MENTION] AS visor is just stack on top of the NS visor with some hole as I can see its six hole. I wonder about the vibration but a double sided tape in between would fix that. Try to open up your visor and you will get the idea.

nothing to do with nationality here.
just compare price of fuel in India with rest if the countries and you will come to know the difference. am not going into economics and politics as it may start war here and against forum rules too. i am just pointing in two factors.

1. price
2. performance

first point we all know in detail, now coming to second.
mileage is not only about fuel consumption, it also shows state/health of your ride, it also indicates when to worry about tappets, timings, ignition, chain sprockets, tyre pressure, valves, clutch, carb and cdi.
in short mileage and puc is kind of blood test report, keeping track of it can be a lot time, money and ride saviour.

no disrespect intended. i was highlighting benefits of mileage other than FE.

Bro, 38 is a good fuel economy for 80-90 speeds. That's why I said leave it as such if there's no other problem with the bike. Got nothing to do with Indian or African

What I meant was we're way too much be required to be contended. I am not complaining about FE but FE indicates the health of my bike. Hence I was worried about it.

There was situation where I overreacted with carb tuning and ending up in rich fuel and clogged electrode in a bullet in a 600 km ride, it was then I started tracking FE as measure of health.

Exactly it was going my mind. I am not yearning for FE but I dont want to spoil the bike since its just 4.5k and I really really like it other than the windblast and the times I am being dragged for crushing my balls when I apply the brake.
The engine is goldmine though. There is a hell lot of difference from RE.
