Hello NS owners...
Have some issues to report and queries.....
Issues:
1. Lots of vibrations in the bike, now even I feel vibrations in the handle bars at 6-7k rpm.
2. Lots of noise (resulting from the vibrations)
a. constant noise from the front mini-fairing at 4-6k rpm
b. a buzzing sound that was there at all rpms has now selected to be audible only when i press the front brake.
c. at 5800-59500 rpm there is a very harsh noise from the front portion, this is the noise of some metal rubbing against another metal surface,
which later I figured out to be caused by the right hand side leg guard (the top bolt is missing).
d. When the bike is on bad-roads (which mostly is the case) there is an additional sound.
3. The Pulsar logo is loosing is color from the top edges.
4. Certain parts of the alloy wheels are also loosing its color.
5. I guess there is some problem with the electrical system, as sometimes the lower beam light doesnt glow.
+ves:
Well we all know a lot about it, but I would like to re-iterate that the bike feels very stable at high speeds, in my recent ride, I did 760 kms in 12 hrs (which included 2X 60 mins breaks and atleast 5 other breaks) and on my return journey there was a stretch wherein I did 185kms in 2 hrs. I was amazed by its capabilities.
*This is not to encourage anyone to ride faster, Please ride at your comfortable speeds*
Queries:
1. I need tankpads, as my tank has got some bad scratches (most probably because of my belt and the clip of the backpack that I was carrying), where can I get one in Pune/Mumbai?
2. If not tankpads, how can I remove the scratches?
3. My mileage is 32-35kmpl... is it too low?

4. Can anyone provide the details and cost of the recommended FS oil.
To end it, here is a pic taken at Dandeli...



so you've got the same problem as mine...
