There isn't much issues with the bike at all at least for me(1200kms), except for some vibes in the tank around 3.5-4.5k rpm.

Am sure all these little vibration problems can be easily sorted out,but the tank one will remain forever unless they give some extra padding.

@all:approx. how many full turns(anti-clockwise) should i need to keep my AFR screw to get good performance and a mileage of at least 35-40 kmpl. currently i am mot sure but i am getting a mileage of 30 kmpl which is a bit low.my bike has clocked around 920 kms and i had started taking it higher RPMs(7k-8K) after the first service but that too only when the engine was warm.

Don't mess up with AFR screw.

Each bike's turns are different.

You better deal with SVC.

My choice is White..!!

Going for it soon.


Am in..!!!! Lets start it

Sands, rafsal, ajai5777, where are you guys?

I've put in white LEDs for the pilot.. Check my profile pic .. Also I've seen one pic of yellow NS having red LED even that looked nice.. Devilish.. But I personally like bright white better..

i dont have the main stand in my bike..will fit it at first service or before..sai service was quoting 1000 rupees for the centre stand and i felt that is too much...might be i'll get the stand from the svc or some shop of genuine spares and get a local mech fit it...but i'm not sure if i shud do this or no...the local mech can screw up as he might have never even worked on this bike but well its just a centre stand i suppose and few nuts and bolts to fit it...

he had quoted 98.3K to me..i asked this is a bit costly...and a month back the price was 98.1K why did u increase 200 rupees? he told okay u give 98.1K and i asked what accesroies..he was offering a crappy helmet but i told him on the phone i asked you that time u said you'd give me a good vega helmet...so he offered me a vega helme a garrage cover which at maz would cost 300 rupees and a bicycle lock which he called helmet lock that must be max 50-75 rupees not more...

get a mainstand if possible...the side stand isnt so confidence inspiring..

some issues arent problems at all....there are some memebrs with specific issues like a disk getting bent again and again but personally i have never seen or heard anyone's NS getting a disk bent...may be a batch produced was faulty and by coincidence he spare disk changed under warranty also was from the same faulty batch..

even KTM owners faced many problems like coolant overflowing and paint peeling off and what not....so id say the NS and duke are equal in terms of quality and reliability...KTM might be a wee bit more but the NS quality is definetly better than earlier pulsars

if you can afford the KTM theres nothign better than that...rememebr KTM and duke are two different types of bikes and just share the same engine bore...nothing else is same...

i rode with my mother as pillion and she too complained the seat is high but she found the seat very comfortable(more comfortable than my activa) and was happy she could see the road ahead unlike when she sat pillon behind me on my activa

some issues are just minor niggles and not issues at all..."dimag ka vehem" even i felt there are issues but there actually isnt...today while riding back home a guy from an auto ricksha started shouting something pointing at the headlight or front forks and i wonder what hapened and i was tensed the whole ride back home and when i got down and saw there was nothing...

also refrain from any tuning of carb if u are inexperienced and even if u are experienced just let the settings remain stock and get minor issues rectified in 1st service...the bike works like a charm....handles great...and remember..naked bikes are not good for high speed riding...so you are bound to get uncomfortable..the NS is one of the best STREET machine and second only to duke200....

How much did the BRIGHT WHITE LEDs cost you bro ?

Lot of Commotion regarding quality of the bike for the past couple of days. Well Nothing is perfect in this world is it. There are solutions to almost all the problem faced by few fellow xbhp'ians over here. All in all, this is one GEM of a vehicle. It has its own presence on the road which is its USP. Its Personality is something which every biker will definitely love. It has the Panache to enthrall it's rider. I'm surely proud to be part of the 200NS family

interested in a owners community of 200NS in kerala.?

am ready and interested in a such a community.. actually i had plans for such a community but dropped that idea thinking no 1 will be interested.. Iam from Chalakudy,Thrissur and i think itz me who got the bike in our area, chalakudy.

The LEDs prices start from 70 bucks for a pair to 600 bucks per piece. The ones I got costs 200 bucks per piece.. This one has 2 LEDs with a lens on top to intensify the brightness.. (LED with projector )

Its better if you yourself open all the parts one by one and check which screws are loose or needs tightening.I would have gone to the limit of testing my ride with parts opened up for getting to the bottom of the problem.I would have done the same,coz I have the proper tools for my ride.

The Bold part I Don't HAve!!!!
And NS is quite A Complicated bike.. Even for getting into Simple things like the Air Filter, One needs to Open up the COver Tank, as well as the Actual fuel tank inside it!!!

And during the 1st Service I complained of extra vibrations From the Headlight Panels, And the SVC guy found out that there was some nuts loose which were Affixed INSIDE the side panels, which u cannot reach, unless the the headlight part is Completely opened up!!

Then get hold of these tools..they cost really less and its a great thing to open up the whole bike by yourself and change things. It will also save many a visit to the service centre! And please open up the headlight and fix the screws.Tip the SVC guy and prevent ur bike from being a Nokia in vibrate mode.

Where did you them ?

Where did you get them from ?

The Hdlight Console Still vibrates(but less than before), and the SVC manager Has promised to replace the part once the spares Arrives in KOlkat!!!!!!!!!!!!

Abt The Tools, why not I Pay A vist to ur garage, and while u can check out my ride, I could put those tolls of urs to some use!

I don't have a garage,I have a humble shed where I keep and work on my bike.Sure u can visit,no issue. But if something unexpected happens (since I don't know the nitty-gritties of ur 200NS,please don't blame me and do visit the SVC. I asked my SVC the particular tools needed to "undress" my bike and bought them.Hardly took Rs.200.
