    Once upon a time, a guy asked a girl 'Will you marry me?'
    The girl said, 'NO!'


    And the guy lived happily ever after and rode motorcycles and watched sport on a big screen TV, went fishing and surfing, and played golf a lot, and drank beer and scotch and had tons of money in the bank and left the toilet seat up and farted whenever he wanted.

      Great Review Owner Sir
      Wanted to ask you one thing, Have you ever faced One way Clutch problem in your Pulsar 220 in those 60,000 kms run???
      I have seen many Pulsars, especially the 220's having one way clutch problem. A HUGE/ irritating loud sound comes during start up like something is broken. The sound is like"TUCK".

        Sir? Seriously ? Hahha....
        Well dear sir. No i haven't had rhe one way clutch problem yet. No such unwanted noises while starting , onl the starter motor sound and occassionally no sound at all, that's when i have to push...
        The only event wjere i have witnessed this sound is in a 200 (the older one).

        Cheers

            Never mind, thats respect to bikers saying SIR. Nice to hear that you did not have that problem. The problem is still with some Pulsar Dts-i 's too.
            I reside very near to a Bajaj showroom, the head mechanic is my well known senior. He was saying that monthly 2 to three Pulsar 220's come for the one way clutch problem.

              Uh oh I think somebody is a genius here. :thumbup: :thumbup:

              Hey I would specifically like to get an FZ just for DIY and remove it to pieces. Haha. How about that, lending yours?

                      Cheers mate, 60K in 3 years is a lot of riding! I managed only 37K in 3 years even with loads of highway runs.

                      Your review has changed my mind on dumping the 220 before it reaches 50K kms.

                        Thanks mate, wishing you many more miles with the bike. Riding has decreased tremendously for me, a few unforseen incidents back at home. Now she is about to kiss 66k.

                          Motul 7100, Luv that Oil, by far the best experience I had was with 7100, prefer it over the 300V and the 5100.

                            Yup. Doesn't give the headache of gasket leak as the 300v does. And more protection in high revs than the 5100 gives.

                                [MENTION=39214]B7ACKTHORN[/MENTION] mate, you are using the 300v for some time now right ? Any gasket leaks ? What's your experience so far ?? For me the riding experience was great but the gasket leaks were a bummer.
