Re: Pulsar 200 NS

Guys i am going to buy 200 ns very soon. I want to change the stock tyres immediately after my purchase so can anyone tell me which is the best option ? I am gonna ride mostly in city and occasionally on highways.No off roading and negligible bad roads.Budget is 5-6k max.

Re: Pulsar 200 NS

Pirelli is a better choice. But hey the stock tyres are good enough. As I have treaded in rough and smooth roads on city n highway. the grip is good and quiet stable at high speed breaking too.
Pirelli might cost 4.5k per tyre...

Re: Pulsar 200 NS

ok, but some people say stock are horrible that's why i am confused.

Re: Pulsar 200 NS

I am more than happy with Stock. It is made specially for Pulsar NS by eurogrip... size is 130/70. Not bad at all rite. I suggest you go with stock itself.
We have a group in facebook called naked wolves where there are like minded bikers talking about bikes mainly for 200 ns. You could check that out too. Most of em have stock tyres.

paying 1.02 lakhs and again spending more for tyres is a big no no.

Re: Pulsar 200 NS

Yesterday I went to buy a helmet but couldn't find one of my liking in surat. BTW I saw a white and a desert colored ninja 3g helmet. They had extrely good graphics. But I was not sure that whether they would match my black 200ns or not. Can you please suggest that which colour /model is the best match for a black ns. Brands available here are only studds, vega and steelbird. I thought of studds scorpion but couldn't found one here.
Need suggestions asap.

Re: Pulsar 200 NS

okk. i will check the group. I will get at least 2k for my old tyres so i have to spend extra 3k max for better tyres that's why i was asking and here in Chandigarh i am getting ns for 92 k without RC.

Re: Pulsar 200 NS


Horrible? Seriously? On the contrary they're really good as far as you dont meet road with lots of sand combination on it.

Agreed.


As long as you have a black NS , Only helmet that will suit is one with a black base only.I too have black ns and a black studds , and it looks nice.

Re: Pulsar 200 NS

Hey y don't u buy from eBay.in there is a wide range of helmets available.

Re: Pulsar 200 NS

I am not buying from ebay as I have heard about fakes being sold. From which seller(s) should I buy to avoid such issues?

Re: Pulsar 200 NS

My chain is making a lot of noise off late, last week I got it cleaned and lubricated. It reduced the noise, but smoothness wasn't there. Now, its loud again.

I was examining the chain today. If I put my bike on first gear on center stand, the chain starts to jerk. If I check for slackness at different points, its not uniform anymore. Some parts are too tight and some loose.

I have completed 10k. Do I have to replace my chain? Can this be fixed?

Re: Pulsar 200 NS

No it isn't horrible. NS comes with the hardest compound tyres in it's segment. It's decent and it appeals to the masses.
It boils down to your riding style.

> If you do lots of commutes and bumper-to-bumper type traffic with very little touring now and then, keep the tyres stock. There's no point commuting slowly with sticky tyres. With proper use (I mean without unnecessary skidding, burnouts, etc) you can push the eurogrips to 20000 kms of running life. Mine lasted 16.5k kms with burnouts, tyre skids, etc.

> If you're the loud hooligan rider who loves to rev hard, brake hard and corner at even the slightest 'cycle-gaps' or take your bike to the twisties often, you need better grip so MRF revz-s, pirelli sport demon or bridgestone battlax (if you're lucky to find one) will do for the rear and MRF zapper Q (front tyre of yamaha FZ) or pirelli will be good for the front. Remember, you'll find drastic cornering ability improvement with replacement of the front tyre. Again, with proper use, they'll last around 10-15k kms max.

> If you do a lot of touring and occasionally would do some cornering, dunlop tuff grip 140/70-17 is perfect. Should last 15k kms.

Go for vega full faced ones, the ones with the sun-flap on top. Looks very cool indeed. White would suit your black bike IMO. My old white vega used to suit my blue NS beautifully.

Re: Pulsar 200 NS

please buy it from Shop only , where you can check it physically, a ssize matters alot, you need to have correct size else there will be problem while riding.

Re: Pulsar 200 NS

Guys, I have this exact issue. Please suggest any solutions.

Aditya, did you get rid of this issue?

Re: Pulsar 200 NS

[MENTION=55380]ankur2smart[/MENTION], your chain is way too tight then. [MENTION=58915]itsnotv[/MENTION] when I changed my chain-sprocket set, I bought a new smaller front sprocket and that problem isn't there now. Everything's fine. But the 13T has some free play on the shaft from the gearbox. Is it gonna be fine in the long run?

Re: Pulsar 200 NS

Its usually a seller from Delhi. And if u find faults eBay takes responsibility. To exchange or money back.
