      I still have kept with me all the three bikes. I have not did a drag between K-R & P 200 Ns since my p 200 NS is in rinning in period. The initial pickup or torque is almost the same in Karizma and P 200 Ns. However, I feel Karizma is more stable than P 200 at high speeds.
      The cornering and handling on hills seems to be better with P 200 NS. Both bikes are on par with each other- one being a naked bike and other a cruiser.![/QUOTE]

      no way the 200ns can match the karizma's torque..never...it doesn't even come close...even a noob can make it out... Karizma and 220 are torque monsters.... No offence though

      • HI Guys,have completed 3000 kms. Had changed the oil during 1st servicing (600kms).having completed 3000 kms i feel lack in performance altough engine is much smoother now.When i went to bajaj service center to change the oil they insisted not to change the oil now but to change it during 2nd servicing(5000 kms).Can anyone suggest whether i should change the oil now or not.

          • @ashish Congrats buddy and nice pics

            @others I found out one strange behaviour of my NS.. After Turning the knob to RESERVE, the engine automatically loses some power and throttle response decreases! Only when I put in enough petrol to turn the knob to ON, It behaves normally again. Has anyone else experienced this?

                Karizma has got good mid range surge but other that , its pretty much slow for today's standards ..also considering power to weight ratio, , ns must be able to go past karizma.. even r15 easily goes past karizma with such less low end torque .. I guess even rtr180 beats karizma ...

                  dude, what are u talking about ?
                  pulsar 200ns - 18.3 Nm
                  karizma zmr torque - 18.35Nm
                  pulasr 220f torque - 19.1 Nm
                  Where the hell is there so much difference ?
                  ZMR has jus 0.05Nm more than NS and 220f has 0.7 Nm more than NS !

                    And can you please throw some more light on this 'AFR'. I don't know much technical terms in biking so please try to keep it as simple as possible.
                    Search for Air Fuel Ratio, you ill get the details.

                    Thanks. I think it's the picture which makes it look that dark. But anyway, the black portions should not loose shine for atleast a year! BTW no polish here

                    Ha Ha. I have already tried with the perimeter frame, quiet difficult to stick the CF without creases. I don't CF alloys as well

                    Super!
                    Thank you. And we all know PTR review was the best review we have come across!

                    Ya friend, I too feel that my NS is still running on the leaner side. Last time I adjusted the AFR to a very Tiny bit. Will again do some more adjustments, on the richer side.
                    But it's the Rain which is keeping me OFF from my DESTINY. Couldn't take it for a spin in last 3 days. It has been 1 week of my ownership and the ODO stands on a stagnant 43kms


                    Again super work. In fact the Radiator thing looks sexier. But Truth be told, you stole my Idea. the day i saw the CF treatment on ur Bunblebee, I decided to do it on the Radiator shrouds, as it wont look good on other places coz of the red tank. Also i saw something similar in the duke ownership thread

                    BTW, Do you apply your bike polish on the perimeter frame?? Coz it looks so Black.. I applied waxpol, on the frame, but the colour looks same. It just became all the more slippery..
                    Perfect heading


                    AFR - Air Fuel Ratio. The ratio of Air:Fuel can be adjusted through a screw (bronze colour) present in the carburetor.

                    Putting the CF on radiator shrouds was Rohan's idea!

                    In this pictures I have not applied any polish anywhere, just normal washing. Infact in the morning Rohan saw my bike in pathetic condition.

                    There's a huge difference in Power to weight ratio of ZMR/Karizma. Also even with more torque, NS beats 220/ZMR/Karizma hands down. The acceleration of NS is superb.
                    Been There, Done That; Better!

                      arey i was talking simply about torque...that too low end...not outright performance... Karizma is known for the pulling power and the torque even at the leanest possible AFR setting..... Other than that the ns can beat the hell out a karizma anyday
                      @all: the problems faced in the bike are odd and funny... Hope bajaj rectifies them soon and offer the changes to existing owners free of cost...

                        You don't see only the Torque that one produces, but also at what power band (RPM level) is it able to produce that kind of max torque..

                          Hey Praveen, How much did the reflective rim stickers cost you? did it buy it online or at a local store. Are they original Monster stickers or is it just the packaging?

                            @Sero and all those who have changed to Motul during running-in: What do you guys do when the SVC guys do not allow to use any other oil other than the DTSi. Do you drain it home on your own and then pour in the Motul?

                            What do you with the DTSi keep it for future use or just dispose it off?

                            Another query: speedshift in one his earlier posts had said that the Okhla SVC where i will be going they sell the DTSi oil @ Rs.650 / litre. If that is the case then i was thinking of opting for the Motul 7100 (if available). I know FS oil is not recommended before at least 2500 km on ODO due to the delay it creates on running-in period. But i am not in a hurry with the running-in process, so i guess shifting to FS should not create any major problems.

                            completed 510 km on odo today.

                              No buddy, DONT do that. There is a reason that FS is not recommended during the break-in. It will glaze the cylinder walls, and your bike will never break-in properly.
                              Going for SS oil is OK, but FS is seriously not Recommended.

                                NS - 18.3 Nm @ 8000 rpm

                                ZMR- 18.35 N m @ 6000 rpm

                                Not too much of a diff there.. so dint mention it !
