Re: Pulsar 200 NS Owners Review and Experiences
Unfortunately I had an accident on my NS. I was doing a good 80 on a blind corner ( Yes ik I'm stupid), and a bus showed up in the opposite lane. I could've easily gone past without any problems. But I was kinda startled by the big bus, I target fixated straightened my bike and then hit the brakes hard. I knew there was almost no way I could stop my bike without a head on collision with the bus, so I hit the brakes and the front locked up (didn't really matter at this point). And I jumped off the vehicle into the opposite foliage. Went in a good 10 mts into the bushes doing flips. Friends told me the bike didn't hit the bus, and quite frankly I was lucky to be alive and not be under the bus wheels. I got out with a minor sprain on my wrist and a hairline fracture on my ankle. I was wearing helmet gloves and a good jacket and riding boots and that's why I survived with almost no major injuries. ATGATT please! Don't ever forget.
Now my bike. Was all scratched on the side i fell. Nothing major. The leg guard is a bloody lifesaver. The placement of that little thing is genius. It took the brunt of the fall.Handle bar was also bent. Went to SVC they quoted about 2.5k including replaced parts and labor. Yet to collect vehicle. They called me yesterday and told me to see if the rear cowl( below the pillion seat where the ns200 is written) in red would be fine. I went and checked it out. They have it in the same colour as the tank( red). I didn't like it cuz it looked really bright and showy. Liked the grey red look better. But if I had a black ns maybe I would've liked a black rear cowl, ask your SVC if you guys want it. chances are they might get it.

Re: Pulsar 200 NS Owners Review and Experiences
Two of my friends have bought the new Apaches and both have faced issues. One had to have his battery replaced, while the other has a problem with its gear shift indicator. Also cruising at 110 is not its thing, because it has a lot of vibrations. 100 could be more suitable. If I was you, I'd push my budget slightly and go for the refined Fz25Originally posted by $Cj View PostThere is no ladies footrest accessory for NS 200 where as RTR 200 has one. RTR 200 is more up ride and most comfortable bike and excellent handling in 150cc and 200cc bikes. RTR has better pillion seats then NS 200 any day. For city mileage you can't I cannot comment because I can't find a uniform number in any forms or fb group. But in the highway both will give you 40 kmpl for sure. Both bikes can cruise at 110 kmph all day long at almost same rpm. NS can do more then 110 but engine is not refined after that. There is no major quality issues reported so for for RTR 200 but but for NS it is there. RTR doesn't live upto a 200 cc machine, this is where NS excels.
Why to choose RTR
Comfort
Relatively new design
Engine refinement
Why to choose NS
Performance
Underbelly exhaust gives more room for saddle bags in touring which is most important factor for touring.

And then fz25 has its own set of issues like paint chipping, mudding, paint peeling off, a very boring console and that characteristic tappet noise.Originally posted by kamikaze99 View PostTwo of my friends have bought the new Apaches and both have faced issues.

Re: Pulsar 200 NS Owners Review and Experiences
Sir every bike and car has its own set of issues and these are the issues which are faced at early stage and there might be some issue which will show up in a long run and i would say rather, go with the heart always and it pretty much works for me and as for niggles you say I even know a S class owner whose passenger side lock got stuck so everything has it's fair share of niggles and for me till the bike mechanically does not gives me problem it does not irritate me and doesn't leave me stranded anywhere all is fine for me.

Re: Pulsar 200 NS Owners Review and Experiences
Hi I have 2017 Ns,,,Originally posted by kc_1602 View Post
I think it's pretty good for 1,15 lacs,,,, with few minor issues,,,,
1, small engine oil leakage,,, I know 2 others who have 2017 model they too have this issue,,,
2, cone set problem or something due to which the handle becomes loose,,, when I apply the front brakes on a down slope road I feel that the handle bar is kind of loose
3, fuel indicator is just MAD
Other than these I didn't face any issues so far,,,
And yes ,,, no matter which bike u have got ,,, it will have its own problems,,,

Re: Pulsar 200 NS Owners Review and Experiences
Sounds like minor problems that can be fixed at a service?

Re: Pulsar 200 NS Owners Review and Experiences
Gear indicator issue is true with RTR, battery issues i never heard or at at least minor issue. Why don't you share your own experience and prospective of these two bikes. Lots of people still struggling to choose between these two bikes.Originally posted by kamikaze99 View PostTwo of my friends have bought the new Apaches and both have faced issues.
