        Normally I would advise bros to adjust it themselves like I do, but seems like its too volatile in nature as of now to do it on P200NS. Take it to the service center and ask them to adjust it for you. Tell them that it dies during the first start of the day or when its cold. Keep an eye on what he does and learn, that's the best way.

          you can try Helmet Strap locks... something like this.

              Are you at Mavelikara right now!? Can we meet? I think my bike is also having that roughness now. I wish to compare your's with mine and also like to take some snaps of both our bikes together. Let me see if I can get a red NS too! There is one in Kallumala
              Its not the speed.....it is all about the skill !!!!

                • Lossing Engine Smoothness!!!!

                  Let us all discuss the below check points

                  1) Take your bike to SVC and Compare your bike with another bike to see the difference in smoothness.

                  2)Which OIL was previously used while taking the bike delivery...

                  3)Was the OIL changed in your presence or did you leave the bike at SVC. Check if they have changed the OIL.

                  4)Change the OIL to some other branded OIL and not DTSi OIL.

                  OIL is the culprit most probably and not a mechanical issue since most of the guys complain about the smoothness lost once the first service was done...

                  Seniors yours advise on the above needed...Correct me if iam wrong...

                  Regards,
                  Sree

I dint see any blinking digits! the ":" is blinking though

                        (1) Put the key to "ON"
                        (2) Do not crank the engine
                        (3) Press "M" till the display comes to "TRIP1"
                        (4) Press "M" and "S" simultaneously, till the digits start blinking.
                        (5) Press "M" for hours, "S" for seconds.
                        (6) After desired time is set, press "M" and "S" again for 5 seconds.

                        And in case you havent heard, Bajaj is all set to launch a faired version of the NS sometime next year, code named SS(super sports)


                        Try pushing both the buttons for 5 secs or more.

                        As per bajaj 2000Kms is the run-in period. However, It is not advisable to ripp the bike right after the run-in is over..
                        After the initilal 300-500kms, try running the bike in a normal way, with combination of short brusts, and varying the rpm.
                        just keep in mind NEVER to redline the engine, or to lag the engine. And as u go on doing more kms, and strengthen ur bond/connection with ur bike, you yourself will get the idea when the bike is ready to deliver it's full potential.
                        Keep riding, and ride safe...

                        @Rahuldevnath - Super job..I like how u keep urself busy with the bike.
                        Thanks

                        Yes, that sound is present in many bikes including mine. It's either timing chain or Tappet. But nevertheless, nothing to worry, just wait and tolerate the sound till it's sorted out.

                          From your pictures, I''ve noticed with HID, voltmeter is reading 12.6... Does this HID affect battery? I mean does this make battery low? I ride about 10 km daily.. not that much kilometers.. so?

                            the service engineer has asked me to give my bike to them for a day so that he can study and get it rectified completely.. gonna contact them and ask to collect the bike this week.

                            between... how much did your hid set cost?

                            thanks rahul... will ask them to sort it out .. or will have to contact customer care for clarifications. between..excellent job on the hid.. any diy for the hid conversion coming up? the stock lamp spread is good but i think an hid would be definitely welcome for touring

                            • What is the difference between adjusting rpm and AFR, their effects on performance.....

                              and how to adjust them on ns
                              my stock ns came with higher rpm setting, svc guy tuned it to abt 500 rpms less. now it doesn't get heated up too soon, but it gives a missing like feeling.

                              I just noticed something today, some guys are experiencing reserve light coming on and off after immidiete switching on and off, please check it when position is prependicular to ground and not tilted on sidestand, the sensor looses touch with fuel when its on borderline i guess, will double check that though.

                              Comment


                              • AFR adjustment you need to adjust the afr screw on the carb. you might need a long flat screw driver .. located on the right side...this will allow for a richer or leaner mixture of air and fuel and will result in difference in acceleration and mileage...the combination of rpm screw and afr screw adjustments will give the best results...
