Pulsar 200 NS

My NS has had a crash today with a A8. Shocks are bent. Rims, I am not sure. Brake pedal is bent. The crash guard is also bent. The front brake lever is broken. The amazing fact is the person riding it has saved himself with a collar bone fracture and few other injuries. (I was not riding it).

Accident location: Nagar Highway, 7 kms ahead of ranjangaon or something like that.
How it happened: The car fellow was trying to overtake from the right when he suddenly swerved completely into the the bike.

Details : The car fellow has already admitted the friend to a hospital and escaped. The rider went into a coma shortly after he was admitted. Currently in ICU. Was informed few mins back of all the details from the pillion. The rider's Studds helmet had cracked.

Oops!!!! So sad man

I hope he gets well soon

Hi guys, help needed... my pulsar 200ns is only 11 days old but i'm facing problem with my rear disc brakes they make squeaking noise all the time, this also affected the acceleration of by bike and only after a few KM of ride the disc become too hot....the people of service center dont know the problem and i'm so depressed....

Like antz.bin said, ride a few kms without using brakes, if it's too hot, you have a problem mate.

Is it only me or do the rear view mirrors on the NS just suck, i can hardly see anything behind, i have to keep adjusting it, any advice?

I too feel the same. There are many bits as such in the bike which beg for improvement. Advice? Adjust, for now. Or if you can, change the mirror to a concave type (curved inwards in case you didn't know).

I did this today, and the brake disk was not too hot it was at normal temp but the sound is really annoying, specially at low speed

His collar bone is fractured and due to a hit in his head he went into coma after he reached the hospital. Currently in ICU. The pillion has bruised her hands and legs. Could contact them only once till yet when they were at hospital and were to be attended. I am trying to get to them.

Brake Fluids are available in various colours like Brake Fluid DOT 3 is available in clear, Pale Yellow, Blue & Crimson Red colour, similarly brake fluid DOT 4 is available in Clear, Pale Yellow & Crimson Red colour, brake fluid DOT 5.1 is available Clear, Pale Yellow & Blue colour. Brake Fluid DOT 5 is available in Purple & Violet colour so colour is not a criteria to distinguish between the different types of brake fluids. The color is added in brake fluid to detect the leakage easily and color does not effect the quality of brake fluid.

@^^ Exactly what I meant by my earlier post. If one brake has Red brake fluid, why would BAL factory/svc people use a different colour fluid in the other brake?

This is in continuation to my post regarding 2nd and 3rd free services to be done in 240 days (post #9944). The responses from other members to this are posts # 9947 and 9948.

I took my bike for the 2nd service today at Pioneer Motors Trivandrum. The bike is 4 months old and ran only for 2700 kms. I checked with them and they confirmed that the 2nd free service must be done in 120 days from the date of sale or the specified kms which ever occurs first NOT 240 days. The 3rd free service must be done in 240 days from the date of sale or the specified kms which ever occurs first.
I wanted to confirm this again with another authorised svc. So, I called up Deedi Bajaj and they too said the same.
240 days given in the 2nd free service coupon must be in fact 120 days. The svc also mentioned that their service manual says 120 days. Because of this misinformation svc gives a blind eye to the 120 day rule for the 2nd free service. But is this misinformation? Don't know!

wow.. according to that my 2nd service should be done before 21st of Feb. and I had planned it in March/April. What if I don't do the 2nd one within 120 days ? Warranty void ? tbh I don't feel like sending my NS for the 2nd service just yet, it's also done about 2700kms & it's running fine atm. I'm worried 2nd service might give me more trouble than any good. Have had enough of those lately.

A shocking news but he is lucky enough to escape though his collar bone is fractured. Let us hope he recovers soon.

Just wait for a few more hundred kms and let the brake pads get seated as the mechanics say. A slight rubbing sound, even after that, is normal.
Gap between the brake pads and rotor cannot be adjusted or increased. The only way is allowing some air to the brake fluid but that too does not increase this gap but makes the brake spongy. So, forget it.

General practice is that they will use the coupon of third free service.
And, what troubles are you referring to?

I see, by trouble I meant mostly about stuff like increased vibrations. Currently I have vibs around the tank part & those are very tolerable... Other random issues may come who knows man. Getting little things rectified also has become tiresome experience. But ofc I will be taking my bike for 2nd before within a week as I must.

Hi friends

I received a response to my query regarding the free services:

Dear Sir

Thank you for submitting the query. Kindly refer the below mentioned free service schedule.

Free Service Schedule:

1st Free Service: before 750 kms or 45 days. Whichever comes earlier (from the date of sale).

2nd Free Service: 4500 to 5000kms or 240 days whichever comes earlier (from the date of sale) / if you are not able to cover the kms given you can avail the service within 90 days from the last service done.

3rd Free Service:9500 to 10000kms or 240 days which ever comes earlier (from the date of sale) / if you are not able to cover the kms given you can avail the service within 90 days from the last service done.

Note : All the free services should be availed within 240 days from the date of vehicle purchase.

With Warm Regards
Customer Care Cell

Bajaj says 90 days from last services. Rather confusing, isn't it.
Hope this helps.

A good rule of thumb for most bike service schedules is 3000km/3months.
Since the ns service schedule is every 5000km, once every 4 months, is ok (tho a little short)
I checked with a r15 owner - service every 3000km/70 days!!

Touring with the pune xbhp group, i hit the 10k mark in 5months
