hi guys got my blue NS yesterday
following this thread from last 2 months ^_^


am really excited but bit scared too cause i am a new rider and 2 weeks back had an accident with my friends p150


NS is a awesome bike with great looks and comfort


but got bit disappointed by HORN(horrible) the tank cover is fiber and can feel some vibs even in low rpm


QUESTION-
1.safty tips for ride and do i need to change the tyres i seriously dont wanna crash with my NS
2.when i need to change the engine oil from DTSi to some other and which one be gud
3.the 2 small lights below does glow when the engine is not started..while in p150 the above 2 glows :P

will post some pics soon

There is no need to change the stock tyres if you are using you bike for daily commute ,I have been riding with stock tyres for more than 1K kms and feel they are adequate for daily use .

The 2 small lights are pilot lamps ,can be used in foggy weather or poor light .

And the horn it is not that bad Dude you can live with it

Thread Approved and Merged

Really well written


Bike swaying to left is due to the absence counterweight. Some NS's are coming with it. Mine had it. Some of my friends here, in Xbhp, doesn't have it... i think.... so take it it SVC.
And, you never look into speed meter.... look in to RPM meter. Keep it under 4K or 4.5K maximum upto first service. After that slowly raise RPM to 5K or 5.5K RPM max.

Thank you bro.. And ya, do post. It's always nice to see things in HD

Today an NS, owned by a guy in my college passed by me. AFAIK he is not following the run in and has started ripping his bike since day 1. He must surely have been in an rpm above 5, and the bike really did sound like a clumsy generator. Did not like the sound at all... :/

Give it to the service center and let them take care of things.

hello everyone, this is my first post, got my blue 200ns today.

Re: Pulsar 200 NS

Will give tomorrow. Hope to get it back normal again. I am really worried if these service people will able to rectify the issue

i just found that not only the small fogg lights but the digital meter when put on ON the meter light glows then goes off in few sec and i cant see anything till i ignite the engine is it just me or its common NS problem

and horn i think i am getting a bit used to it now

This is Common to all NS, and it's not a Problem, But Rather a bad, irritatetive feature. Done to save the battery..
But yes, extremely problematic at night, especially if there are no street lights.

What my NS tells me every day

Then do what I have done. Find a good mechanic who has experience in the electricals of the bike and ask him to convert the bike to DC(it may sound odd since we know the bike is DC already,but those mechanics wont agree) by altering the wiring from the right hand side switch assembly so the light comes on even while the engine is off.

I have completed and had the following fixes done to my bike after second service:
1. bike vibes almost nullified, but the headlight console buzzing is yet to be rectified.
2. brake noise taken care of.
3. tappet noise rectified in first service and since then it feels more responsive and smooth.
4. Headlight mod as mentioned above.

IN the morning the NS says "I want to sleep" - cold sart problem.
From home till entering the highway "You woke me up just to ride like this - go in an autorikshaw and let me sleep" - engine feeling lazy below 4000 rpm.
from highway till office "vroooom vroooom" riding above 7000 rpm at speeds of 90-100.
reaching the office "I dont want to stop, please dont put me in that shed.".
Evening at 5:00 "at last free again"
vrooom vroooom
reaching home "I dont want to go home".

Is it only me or others too, isn't it looking very similar to P135 looks ??

but i think it will void my electrical parts warranty
may in few months will do some fixes

Thanks for the Suggestion boss... And Nice way to depict the mood Swings of ur NS

About headlight console buzz, well it was there in my DESTINY as well. and really it was dammn irritating.
During 1st service, i complained of ti, an the mechanic just tighten all the bolts, and passed it.
but the buzzing noise was still there, and thus, i wanted the senior mechanic to look into it. he opened up the fairing one by one to get to the root of the noise. At last he found that there was a Screw INSIDE the fairing which was loosely attached, and the origin of the noise.

he also showed me that the were two rubber tube cuttings, that were attached in a particular position by Someone ( he guess that i did it with some outside mechanic, but then after hearing my anger. he said it must be done by the PDI guy then) to dampen that noise, but was unsuccessful.

The SVC manager, has promised to change the fairing when the Stock comes in Kolkata.

No, it wont. Many of the mechanics at the ASC do not even know that headlight works only while engine running. And I had this mod by a bajaj mechanic(outside the ASC of course)
I also asked the same question at the ASC (after doing the mod), they said It is not a big deal as there was no additional load on the battery.
there will be only one wire that will be cut, one that of the headlight switch, which now will be connected to another wire that of the engine kill switch.
Just a simple mod.

If I have time I will post some pics this weekend.
