    Hi Everyone,

    I was riding today from Pune to Khandala and spotted the NS 250, new Dominar and Platina on test. Visually the bikes look the same.

    Regards,
    K17

    Guys have a query regarding coolant is getting used up like petrol... I've given my car to SVC and as well as Raju also they both said ... There's no leakage & the fan also works properly... There's not a problem.. but ystrdy while riding long distance and when I was parking.. my other friend who was riding with me observed that my engine was more heated than his...! Can it also be a probability that the fan takes a long time to come back on! And by that time the coolant in the engine gets to much hot that it turns to get evaporated? Can that also be a case? PS: there's no warning sign from the sensor that the engine has got too hot ! Any views on this?

    Hello Everyone,

    3 Years since i bought the NS 200. Very good memories with the bike. Happy with everything. 24000 Kms done.
    I have noticed a "kat"(read as you would read the word 'cut') sound when i brake really hard. I told this to the SC guy but he was clueless. Any idea what this might be? Anyone had similar experience?
    I have no issues with the bike. Handles the same as it did on day 1. Stable on highways. Good mileage(41 highway). Just that sound is starting to bother me. Hope its not something bad. So i just wanted to share it here and see if i can get any inputs from the veteran riders.

    Can anybody tell me what is the issue here?

    the spark is leaking from the master spark plug..


    I have changed the spark plug cap, after a mechanic told me it's the cap which is in fault.

    Please watch the below video to see how it is leaking

    Even after changing the spark plug cap it is not resolved yet.

    If everything has been replaced externally, and valve job done and timing kit changed the only option left is to check the piston and cylinder. Use a borescope and inspect them. Unless SVC messed up valve job and timing replacement

    Losing compression only associates with these, 40k kms is ideal kms where piston rings become weak or cylinder walls beginning to develop skore marks.
    You might need to get only the piston rings changed or the who cylinder assembly based on the condition.

    All the best.

    2) Oil inside cylinder, please post pics of all 3 spark plugs and what is the color of the spark plug tip?
    3) Low compression, maybe due to weak piston rings - Get a compression test done
    4) Bad valve clearances or timing is off - If so get the valve clearances adjusted and timing chain replaced
    5) Get the Carb/Throttle body fully cleaned using injector cleaners
    Will post the pics of spark plugs tomorrow but in the last service all three plugs were changed n there was no oil residue on the plugs or around the threads.
    I cant say about all three plugs because master plug is embedded inside and not accessible but the two secondary plugs are working with good constant sparks.
    Last svc tappets were adjusted on a cold engine with proper filler gauge. Timing chain was inspected and was oked by the svc mechanic.
    Is it ok to get the carb pulled out and cleaned . It was a big pain nd hit and miss tuning that got me the best mileage and power couple of years back.

    Hello before I post my issue I want to clear that I am an owner of AS200 and not NS200 but the forums for AS200 have gone cold hence Im here with my issue. Since both bikes are mechanically identical with a few changes of course I want to ask for help.
    My bike has done over 40k kms since 2016 Jan. Bike is currently running on motul 7100. Have changed one set of tyres and bike has been periodically serviced In the last service 1000kms ago coolent was changed for the first time and the usual service was done.
    from that point onwards my bike has been having starting and heating issues. Earlier my bike would start with just a touch of button even half a self now i have to hold n crank the engine to life. I have tried increasing idling screw but only thing it does is increase idling rpm over 2000
    Second issue is that once driving through mountains my bike stalled n refused to start for 10 minutes later it started working fine but recently i have observed radiator fan is on even when bike is idling n I guess when bike stalled it had overheated.
    Coolent levels are normal n i checked the radiator fins they are very hot so the heat is being transferred to radiator so no issue with coolent pump. Mechanics still are not able to identify the issue.
    Could the bikes starting issue and overheating indicate the bike is running lean or should i look elsewhere.
    Bike has been running terribly rough for the past few 1000 kms.

    hi guys,
    I am writing from Turkey. no carburetor motorcycles here. all fi. my motorcycle is at 28000km.
    I am very happy with him.

    The 6th gear is broken. I change it.
    the fuel pump burned out. I change it.
    Everything is very beautiful.

    I'm dont know if theres anything called throttle slider assembly in the carb. I will ask my mechanic for it though. Thanks!

    I own the 2018 NS200 non abs. Since the day I bought the bike, I've been facing this issue where the bike would really struggle to go above 6.5k-7k rpm at higher gears. For riding in city and crowded areas the bike would run fine since I'm not usually going at high revs, but, riding on highways is a huge struggle.
    If I accelerate the bike to 9k rpm withing the first 3 gears and try to maintain the rpm at gears above, on disengaging the throttle for an instance, the bike would go back to 6k rpm and lock in there. Even pulling the throttle wide open wont help. This locks me on highways on 6th gear at merely 85kmph despite its actual capacity being more than that. Its been 2 years I've been trying to find a solution for this. Neither could the mechanic at bajaj's authorised service center nor could any local mechanic help me or atleast even address the cause. It'd be great if someone helped me out!
    TIA.

    85k kms on stock piston/cylinder kit!!?!!
    You've mentioned compression loss and starting trouble. Sings of any oil deposits on spark plug?
    Please post a pic of spark plug any one out of 3 spark plugs.

    Step 1 is to that you can first to get a compression test done. Check if the cylinder holds 8-10bar pressure during compression test when you have full throttle opened(IMPORTANT to have full throttle open when you hit the starter button during the test).
    If you get results falls 4-7bar, then definitely it might indicate wear in piston rings and they've fully expanded or worn out scored piston/walls.

    If compression is fine within 8-10bar, then problem could be something else to look at next.
