Experts unsure of hype on twin-spark technology

As long as i am getting better mileage with this two spark thing i don't care what experts say.

Done with my run in on the p200 ns .. will leave it for servicing 2moro ..!! there was a small prob with the coolant in the start with the radiator pipe and its all right now .. im even gettin an avg of 42-43 in both city nd highway riding .. most of city ..!! im just concerned about the chain and the chain sprockets.. its started givin noise already .. so is there anything that i can do about it ? please help!!

Engine design and architecture are proprietary by nature. Each manufacturer tries to implement the best possible to produce the best possible output.

If people here remember, Honda City 2nd Generation also had two plugs per cylinder. Does that mean that Honda engines are less efficient? The Honda City also produced the same amount of power and almost similar fuel consumption figures as the competitors in it's class. Does that mean that two plugs are an indicator of Honda engines being inefficient?

If we use the same vein in which the so called "experts" have judged technology, Why have DOHC? simple cams with rocker arms is good enough and offers the same performance. Why have alloy wheels? simple wire wheels are better, can be repaired and do not cost a bomb...whats more, they do not break like alloys nor deform like alloys. why have liquid cooled machines? the simple air cooled machines have the same top speeds and performance to match...

Why have air-conditioners? have air coolers...does the same task very well.

If costs and other factors are to be taken into consideration, Professor Subramaniam better shift to Diesel engines where there is no spark plug, no extra space consumption and lots of government subsidy.

As far as my personal opinion goes, the article is a pure piece of bull crap and the experts better keep an open perspective to newer technology. Instead of pulling down something, better introspect and check why patents were granted.

DISCLAIMER: the views and opinions expressed above are my own. no one is obliged to agree or disagree with the same. I have very vocally expressed that the so called "experts" in the article are dumb and outdated engineers. This is my personal opinion as an optimist and does not mean that I consider myself to be an expert.

I understand that Bajaj put in charge of the design the same guy who designed the BMW 1200 GS and that the bike was conceived from the beginning as an international product, therefore I understand the front number plate placing not being a big part of the design.

Make sure the chain slack is properly adjusted and the chain being O-ring type must be lubricated every 500kms in good weather and low dust conditions and every 100kms in extreme weather and dusty conditions as I guess you have in India during the monsoon season.

PS: Do not trust the svc personnel on the chain maintenance as they not always do it and it is understandable since that is part of the owners duties as much as washing the bike and checking the air pressure on your tires.

Cheers.

Why don't you make a similar post on the Honda CBR150R ownership thread and see what they have to say about the exact same topic?

You mean you completed the run-in with out servicing the bike?
The chain in NS is an O-ring and should be sprayed with the chain spray...you should get it in any of the service workshops.

Cool... I got the same call from Khivraj indiranagar... Atleast we have an official date now...
Which color did you opt for?

Yeah even I had been informed the same but now it is officially announced (By the manager of the showroom) that the bike will be launch on 26th July 2012....
No confirmations given about test ride vehicles or the delivery date....

Very nicely said.
BTW, the same 2.2ltr Common Rail Diesel Engine in Xylo/Scorpio with further refinement, gives 140bhp in XUV500

Thank you so much "blackbeest"

Great, congo buddy! well, I have fallen for Yellow, and as you may know, they do not have Yellow as yet. (asking for 5K more for that color). What do you suggest? wait for it to come to other dealers or pay the extra 5K. I dont have any idea as to how long the wait would last..

looks like bangalore is the last city to get 200ns ...
one more month of painful wait ..

Comparison and Evolution of Pulsars

When I look back.. 10 years.. Pulsar has come of ages.

It all began with Pulsar 150cc & 180cc. Back then, the competition of Pulsar150 was with CBZ... Soon came the Karizma and Pulsar 180 was compared with Karizma.

Pulsars evolved and as they moved ahead, they had new competitors... Unicorn, Apache et al. Pulsars evolved and superseded competition in lot of areas.

Pulsars further evolved and got competition from Yamaha and Suzuki. There also Pulsars managed to gain vote and people's heart.

And We have now significantly more number of Pulsar fans in India than Any other bike ever existed. Yes competition did beat pulsars in several areas.

Come 2012, and Pulsars are again ahead of the pack. 10 years back people compared Pulsars with some Indian products... today Pulsar is being compared with Indian Track King bike - R15 and Honda CBR. Some of the iconic products in world.

In my 10 years of biking I have never seen a single brand being compared to so many products in Indian market. And thats something amazing.

Analogy is.. Every smartphone is compared with Apple Iphone

Comparison has Evolved... Pulsar has evolved. And this is a Vicious Circle.

World is the Stage.. Bajaj .... go go go..

ns top speed

pulsar 200ns top speed 136km/hr - YouTube


guys in this video , ns is not pulling after 127kmph .. it seems like 127 is its top speed .. that too speedo indicated ..
