you're late to the party.

Hey friends am planning a 1200kms trip up and down, recently i have serviced my bike and am plaing tk leave for the trip by 24 July any suggestions that i should check before i leave.. This will be my first trip on a bike with a much experienced rider on pulsar 220 who also owns a Hayabusa. So i need your advice on highway riding and things to check before hiting the highway

Since you have got the bike serviced recently, there would not be any issues considering this is a new bike.

Before long trips, check for any unusual sounds from the bike when running in city conditions, check tyre pressure and also physically inspect both they tyres to see if it has any lumps or damage to it. Check engine oil level, front disc brake oil level and top up/refill if necessary. If you will be riding at night, check if the lights and indicators are working fine. Clean and lube the drive chain. This is very important.

This bike is an absolute delight on the highways once the engine warms up to highway temperatures! You can easily cruise between 80 to 90 kmph without straining the bike and expect good mileage figures too. Yesterday I rode 365 kms straight with a tankful and I expect it to run another 100 kms atleast before the fuel level hits reserve.

As for riding tips, first and foremost is believe in yourself that you can do it. Riding on highways is no rocket science but you have to be extra careful because it isn't the same as riding within city limits. Speeds are high, wind factor, bending roads, high speed vehicles overtaking you etc plus the possibility of village people and their cattles crossing the road without any warning will catch you off guard. Always be in control of your vehicle. Don't try to keep up with your friend (he seems more experienced) just because he is faster. Since this is your first long ride, being comfortable with the speed at which you think you have control over the vehicle is more important. Try to stick to the left most lane if it is a six lane highway.

Thanks bro.. For such a good advice

raintree has specified what's necessary. Take enough snack, water and toolkit. Carry your user manual because if there is no signal on some highway, you cant get access to xbhp [emoji14] [emoji14] have a good chemistry with your fellow rider [emoji14] take enough breaks and most importantly check for this :

you said its going to be by 24th july? huh?

Then you gotta beware that its my bday [emoji14] [emoji14]

Thanks i wont forget to take my drinks, snacks and user manual. And Birthday Wishes.

There is a screw, On the left side just below the Headlight Assembly. Loosen it and you can rock the Assembly back and forth.

An allen key is needed only to replace the bulb, which I did [emoji1] .

Cheers !
