    However until registration i wont be able to take it out for a proper ride
    In the meanwhile i would like a few suggestions from you guys.

    1) If i am to get a seat cover for this bike where should i go. I'm from Bangalore. Also what type I should prefer?
    2) Frame sliders if any ?Is the bike provided with an option to fix a frame slider ? or do we have to cut through the fairing?
    3) I want a good helmet, are KYT helmets good?
    4) Can center stand be fitted on this bike? Or else if want to do some repairs how would i do on a side stand.
    5) Good Service centers in Bangalore, most of the Bajaj SVC has very bad reviews here. Click image for larger version

        The best advice in case you think you will drop the bike is, Let the bike drop. Because of it's weight, chances are it can pull you along with. Trust me, you will either end up scratching the fairing or bent gear lever mostly and the rest will remain solid. Even I have felt that many times with my NS even though it is 20kgs lighter. When I took off (jumped over the cockpit) from parking, I thought side stand was still there and let the bike to stay on it (but actually I have retracted the side stand), while I tried to take the mobile. Trust me, when the bike sloped to the angle of side stand elevation, I almost couldn't stop it anymore no matter how hard I tried (mind you I weigh 93 Kgs and a heavy built), to some extend I was holding the handle bar and tried hard to stop it from falling, but the bike kept on pulling me along. Finally had to let go the bike (just 2 weeks after my purchase ). Kind if heart broker, bent gear lever, unable to up shift at all and the LCD display showed a black dot (Very disappointed, cursed myself). But after few months, it vanished.

        Also when you bias toward either side when parked on a gravel, you are more prone to drop the bike. I can really think about how bad it'd be in RS200 on such conditions. After that incident, I'd pay more attention when parking and always will make sure there are no sand or fine gravels around.


        Ride safe.
        Pics should show up now, i hope.

        Appreciate the advice. I was pretty pissed off when i first dropped it, mainly because it wasn't entirely my fault. Bu yeah, once the bike starts tipping, it's damn near impossible to stop . I actually pulled a muscle in my leg trying to straighten it but to no use, walked for a few days with a limp, bent gear lever and a broken heart.

          Damn those things look hot. I wanted to ask you guys a question. Is the gear lever position adjustable?
          P.S- I aint in the rs 200 club, in the duke 390 club.
          What do you call a biker who does not wear a helmet? An organ donor.

            My bike got dropped too once. But it was not me at all. One fine evening, I was lying on my sofa watching TV. She was resting on the lawn right in front of me, and a monkey came out of nowhere and jumped on my bikes seat and ran away. That stupid monkey was quite quick and with his force my bike fell off right in front of me! It was a heart breaking moment for me. I tried to lift her back but it fell on an Aloe Vera plant so I couldn't do it all by myself. I called some neighbours to help and then finally it required 3 men to lift her all the way up.

              Guys! Need one clarification. In abs model, does the abs light keep glowing when we are on the move. In my bike, the abs light glows (along with all other check lights which glows on the instrument cluster) when a turn the ignition key ON and start the bike. Once I start moving it switches off. Is this normal?

                Yes, the light should switch off when the bike starts moving. If it still glows then there may be some issue with the ABS.

                  Hello guys,
                  Actually I'm facing an issue like when I'm at speed of somewhat 30-40 km/h+/- little bit,then I di-acclerate me bike and press the clutch the rpm stays on 2.5k-3.5k for a while(3-4 secs) then it goes down. It's happening sometime. It should go down asap na. Is it the auto choke working. My bike has clocked 249 kms as of now on odo but . And I'm facing this since starting. Is it normal guys? I was thinking for asking about the same but I got busy in another stuffs. Please help guys.. SVC guys told that's not an issue.. But I want to confirm from you guys..

                          Does anyone know where we can find such tail lights in India? That's a pulsars 200ns from Indonesia.
                          After the warranty period gets over, I am planning to do some modification
                          1. Get the matte black color on bike will all stickers removed except the RS200 sticker at the back
                          2. Remove the taillight section.
                          3. Get the pulsar 200ns/as number plate section installed.
                          4. Fit the above tail lights in that black plastic just behind the pillion seat.

                          I have just thought of these though I am not sure it would be easy.. I will keep researching on it
