    Re: Pulsar 200 NS Owners Review and Experiences

    Is there any after market rear mono shock that is a direct fit to the 200NS ? My rear suspension gave up and need to change the same. I was told the rear mono shock of Duke200 is a direct fit to 200NS. Is this true ? And do we have any other options to make the ride more comfortable.

    These is a rubber part near the joint. That has worn out. I replaced it yesterday.

    Is it worth upgrading to NS 200 from Pulsar 180 ? Its my dad's 180 and I feel its performance is lacking as it doesn't have enough top end grunt.
    I travel on the highway on the weekends and pulsar 180 doesn't have the power to do highway speeds.
    Its does in 5th gear
    70kmph @ 6000rpm
    85kmph @ 7000rpm
    95kmph @ 8000rpm and by 100kmph it hits a wall and doesn't have power to pull ahead.I have done a top speed of 115kmph going down a flyover.
    I heard from a friend that the NS 200 does a 100 kmph at 6000rpm @ 6th gear and can reach speeds of up to 140kmph. Is it true ?
    Is the NS 200 convincingly more powerful than pulsar 180 or is it only a minor upgrade in performance ?

    Of late (maybe I am getting old ), I get back pain when I ride the NS for more than 50-60 kms. My wrists and shoulders also ache. My pillion rider also complains of back ache.

    Our last few bike trips have been painful to the body. While I am really happy with everything else about the bike, it is getting uncomfortable to use by the day.
    For the wind-blast, you can use any after-market visor. It will reduce the rate of wind flowing towards you, thus reducing fatigue. ex - I think old model Fazer's visor is a good fit as a friend already uses one on his NS200.

    For sitting comfort, you can use after-market gel/foam/air based seats for the rider and the pillion. ex - Ride-On-Air [ https://rideonair.in/ ] , Fego Float [ http://www.fegoinnovations.com/ ] OR you can get a layer of additional cushioning done on your current stock seats.

    For wrist pain, you can add a layer of foam padding or after-market grips on your handle grips. For shoulder pain, i don't think there's anything that can be done other than riding with correct posture and stretching often.

    Hope these help!

    My radiator was not consuming any coolant. The fan comes up after 8 to 9kms of ride and engine overheat symbol used to flash continuously. I got my radiator thermostat changed yesterday and issue is resolved now.

    I have a set of Pirelli Diablo Rosso 2s for my NS. I got them online from a seller who had good ratings.

    When you purchase, check where the tires are made. Mine are made in India. The profile is the same as the international version. It also handles well. However, i think that the made in India ones are made out of hard compound. I have ridden about 15,000kms and the wear is very little. The grip however seems to be getting worse by the day. It has become a hard piece of rubber than the soft sticky tires I thought they would be. I have heard that the tires made in Indonesia have soft and medium compound.

    In pulsar NS the horn is really low on right side....due to this it is prone to water, mud, grease etc and so are the wires connected to it.

    My suggestion would be check if the wire joints are corroded and make sure they are connected securely and conducting current. Try cleaning the wire pins with petrol(make sure to turn off the bike) and see if it works.

    If this doesn't work, Disconnect the wires, turn on your bike, make someone press the honk button and with a multimeter check if the current is being provided or not...if there is current then the horn is faulty, If not then there might be some internal issue.

    If you want to replace it..it will cost around 300 rupees from OEM.
