I am not a big fan of horns. During my daily run of 23 kms, I hardly use my horns 10 times. In fact I abhore the honking types...

Going past my ranting, the horns in RS are not too loud. Definately better than 100 cc types (The horn I was using on my Karizma was the Splendor one

) but not too loud too. In one word, adequate. I stay near Mulund Nirmal Lifestyle and there are some shops in Mulund when you go towards Thane where you can get these horns.

One caution, getting additional horns can void your warranty. I think this is mentioned in the manual.

I have asked the service person to replace the horn with a louder one but he suggested me not to use a louder horn as it drain the battery considerably and one may face bettery problems sooner!...so lets be happy with what we have got.

As long as the visor or any other part of the bike does not have any scratches or cracks, you don't need to be worried about the plastic seals, as it may have been rremoved by the showroom guys for aesthetic purposes. The 5KM reading of the ODO is a good thing if it has been arleady registered, as it shows that your bike hasn't been used as a test mule or fun try-out rides. Surely the showroom guys can alter it, but it would take some efforts which no one would usually take.Still, make sure to do a proper inspection of your bike for cracks, scratches, paint coming off, loose fairing, etc. Do not take delivery of the bike if something's wrong and insist and wait for another piece.GOOD LUCK!

Re: Bajaj Pulsar RS 200 Owners Review and Experience

Since I see some first time riders on this thread, I wanted to share a piece of wisdom from my experience (at the risk of sounding like an old, preachy granpa

)

This bike comes with ABS and more often than not, this would be your first stint with an ABS. The brakes on your bike will also be better than a majority of bikes on road. Whenever you brake at a signal that has just turned red or is about to go red, always use a hand signal to let people know that you are stopping. Do not assume everybody behind will stop at the red signal and believe me, some retards will not assume that you are going to stop too.

This has happened with me thrice when a moron almost bumped me from behind. Once, a moron actually did. He was on an Activa. Without Helmet. With a kid in front! When I started to shout at him, he says that he did not think I was going to stop. I was dumbfound at his dumbness. You are supposed to stop at Red signals, aren't you?

Only way to deal with such imbeciles is to do everything to indicate your intentions to stop and hence this post!

Dude literally I know your feel
i used to lived abroad and came here 2 years back
and all I can say is that I used to be in an accident every week
like on the highways they drive like mad monkeys
not sticky on any particular lane n going zig zags on the road
n I remember I used to use my indicates when while changing lanes
its like the fastest lane should be the right most lane
medium should be the middle n slowest should be the leftmost
but here it's like **** rules! Ima go all haywire on u
and the biggest thing I saw here was : u follow the rules, u will get caught by the police or an accident
and I really appreciate you that you are warning the youngsters
they usually think they know everything

Just wondering if you missed to explain it thoroughly and not giving the wrong message, using hand signals when in the process of hard braking is probably the worst thing you can do to yourself and to other around you where you are actually risking yourself and others though your intention might be clean and noble. Just make sure you have a working brake light which is not hidden or obstructed which sends the message that you are stopping loud and clear, and you can apply your hands and mind to stopping the bike properly in time.
If the commuter behind you is too pre-occupied or dumb to understand that you are stopping even with the brake light working then I'm pretty sure the hand signal is just of no use to him as well.

Slow braking maybe you can use hand signals, hard braking and hand signals, its a big NO NO.

Maybe the message did not come up as intended. The flow is:
See the red/yellow signal --> Decide to brake --> give a hand signal --> brake --> prey that people behind don't ram into you...

The problem is that everytime I was about to be hit by the person coming from behind, my brakelights were working fine with a clear view from behind. So, I am not entirely confident about people on our roads giving two hoots about the brakelights.

Anyways, I am removing the hard braking part from the post. I think you were right about that. Better alternative would be to just plan before and not brake hard.

Exactly my point.
You see we have to be very careful with word placements, the term "hard braking" changes the whole scenario to a dangerous one while normal braking the suggestion you gave is a very welcome approach.

Getting hit from behind because of careless riders/driver is something totally not in our hand. No matter how safe you are with your riding/driving , our lives still hang to the mercy of the guy at back or the guy coming from the side/or head on. We are actually never safe on the road.

Bike service question

Hi folks,

I am from Chennai and I am planning to book a bike soon (Bajaj Pulsar RS 200). There are good chances that I might have to move to Bangalore in the next few months.
Do I have to get the bike to Chennai every time for (warranty) service or can I get it done in Bangalore itself? I mean, is there any constraints on where exactly the bike can be serviced, and could it be availed across states?

What other costs would I have to pay other than the state taxes?

This could be very trivial for some people, but Googling didn't give me clear answers, that's why seeking your help. Thanks in advance!

I booked my bike in kerala and will be taking the beast to tamilnadu and the dealers assured me that the bike can be serviced under any mordern bajaj service centers (bike is fully electrical so advanced service centres are required )

**WDM2** · 06-17-2015, 08:08 PM

Re: Bike service question

Hi,
Yes ,the bike can be serviced at any Bajaj service station across India.
If u take the bike to Bangalore then make sure u get the NOC from Chennai RTO and register in Bangalore before your NOC expires. upon registering the bike in Bangalore u can approach Chennai RTO for refund of the road tax ( bit complicated and tiring process as u need to travel back to chennai to do all this)
Why dont u book the bike in Bangalore if your sure you would move there? will save you time and paperwork.

Re: Bajaj Pulsar RS 200 Owners Review and Experience

Folks, Why the Bangalore Dealers are taking 40 days of time for the delivery ? Is it genuinely the demand is higher or they are just creating hype like all other online stores do in the name of flash sales ?

Re: Bajaj Pulsar RS 200 Owners Review and Experience
