And NO, its not because, of Saree, Crash guard, and any other such fitments, and actually is not considered an issues.


    I'm now running on Motul 7100, post second service. Vibes are there, but the bike feels more composed.
    I completely agree, its the Character of the bike, not an issue.

    I am also running on Motul 7100 now, and for sure there is a noticeable difference.

    • Hey guys!
      The brake light of my NS wont light up when I press the rear brakes...it only lights up when I press the front brake...
      Any help would be wonderful!

      • How much does the centre stand cost?
        i am going to book my bike tommorow and the dealer quoted 1000 rupees
        seemed a bit costly to me..
        i thought it was just 700 or so

        is it a special stand for the NS or any stand from any other bike fits in..??

        Also i am a first time rider( ie. my first bike) are the tyres good enough...wont be speeding around much....and cornering like rossi(well not much but a little)

          I think you mean center stand, because side stand comes as stock. The price of the center stand should be around Rs.600. He's probably duping you by quoting 1k. For a new rider who won't be cornering like Rossi or Stoner, the tyres are more than enough.
          Haven't tried any other bike's center stand...let me know too

            the dealer is surely duping you because my dealer quoted only Rs.400 for it but sadly its not in stock,will get it after durga puja.

Though mostly in the long run only.

              I had the weights on my bike and that time it was perfect, i lost the front end bar weights and then slight alignemnt issues started popping up, nothing big, but still, its better to get it sorted.

              @JK, is it there on your bike too ? I dint feel when i rode yours.

              Yah, I have removed it. I do not think, its the cause of that. It is surely what Krish has said.

                oh yes the centre stand...mistyped it...
                mostly wont be talking the centre stand from my dealer...lets hope i dont get any punctures while i havent got my side stand...would be a big head ache...

                will check it out at other dealers.. i guess other centre stand wont fit....will have to measure the dimensions and compare it with others...

                so stock eurogrip it is...will get new rubbers when the stock tyres wear out

                          Plus , have a look at this : 375cc Pulsar confirmed by Rajiv Bajaj himself !!

                          Okey. Now what else can it be? Anyways it does not seem a huge problem for me. Can adjust. And there is an irritating sound, more like something rotating without enough lubrication. Engine oil level is perfect. and the sound comes only when the bike is running in gears. In neutral (rolling with engine off) there is no such noise. What can it be? Searched all over for parts in contact. Nothing looks suspicious. Will it be the discs? Both the discs have black marks on them. Btw I'm 300 kms on odo...

                          And one interesting incident. Was riding through the city traffic around 8.00 today. Two guys on a hunk came near and shouted what is the cc? I told 200 and was just about pass them. Then they again shouted, even without exhaust aawaz itni kum?

                          375 :O 2013 is not too far...

                            i am buying a new bike(p200ns ) in a couple of days(or weeks) so i have a query about how to maintain my aging activa

                            it has clocked 49400kms till now

                            now that i am buying a new bike what type of service schedule for it should i follow

                            drain interval is 2.5-3k kms for mineral oil but i will ride that much in almopst a year so when shud i change the oil? when i complete the no. of kilometers or every 4-5 months?

                            since my daily riding is hardly 10kms i would complete only around 1.2k kms every 4 months on the new bike

                            after the free and paid service what type of service interval should i be following?


                            the second part of the question is a general query on why do vehicles offer lower FE as time passes...what are the factors and is there any way to regain the original FE after lets say 3-4 years of ownership...

                            • I broke my run in 120 kms earlier than I wanted to ie at 880 kms. I touched 130 kmph speedo on a short curved road. Was scared like hell because of the curvature so i stopped at 130. The stability was awesome and vibes were not noticeable even at such high speed.

                              And yeah my bike also sways towards left but its hardly an issue for me. I just wanted to know that will the bike sway towards left while performing a wheelie or any other balancing stunt??

                                is it a special stand for the NS or any stand from any other bike fits in..??

                                Also i am a first time rider( ie. my first bike) are the tyres good enough...wont be speeding around much....and cornering like rossi(well not much but a little)
                                Center Stand costs 520/- INR including fitting charges here in Mysore. Should be the same elsewhere
