Re: Bajaj Pulsar RS 200 Owners Review and Experience

I tried 2&half turn.petrol starts to flow from fuel overflow pipe.am I doing something wrong?
Also 1 turn means 360 degree rotation of the AFR screw right ?

Re: Bajaj Pulsar RS 200 Owners Review and Experience


Yes one turn means 360 degree, and just turn off ur fuel ⛽ nobe. And start the bike and let it idle until carburettor fuels get empty , then turn fuel ⛽ nobe on and start the bike... I hope it will help you.

Ohk .never thought about it. Wil try it

Re: Bajaj Pulsar RS 200 Owners Review and Experience

Today I something weird in my bike. I was driving, and I heard a sound like that of a paper rubbing with something. It was periodic. Like every 1/2 sec once. The sound reduced as I slowed down, but when I went at around 60, the sound was very much audible. (I guessed that it might be some kind of paper, coz , wen I was a kid, I used to attach a paper cardboard piece in the tyre, so that it would sound like a motor cycle. )
I then pressed the clutch, at 60kmph, and the engine should have been smooth, yet, every 1/2 sec along with that sound, the foot pegs vibrated.
The tyre runs very fast, so the sound couldn't come coz of that,. My next guess was the chain.
I stopped. The bike, and saw the back wheel,.. And there it was. The polythene sheet covering the saree guard, went into the chain. I was so angry seeing it (hurting my baby) . I plucked it n threw it away, and I removed the entire polythene covering . I then ride slow, till home, and I checked the chain..
There was so much polythene sheet stuck in like 4 or 5 places in the entire chain, that it could make an entire polythene cover.
I removed it, but there were small thread like pieces stuck in the chain.. I couldn't remove it. But it didn't come in the way of the sprocket.
I rode my bike after that, and it was all fine then.
A kind advice to all, PLEASE REMOVE ALL THE POLYTHENE COVERING IN THE BIKE, SO THAT IT DOESN'T HARM UR BABY.
please advice, would this affect my bikes chain? How can I remove it fully?
Thanks in advance ..

Hey bro can you please elaborate as to what part you are talking about?

Do you mean the rear tire hugger? Or the one near the shock absorber?

Thanks!

I'll soon update with pics

Re: Bajaj Pulsar RS 200 Owners Review and Experience

I was talking about the grill like structure.. There was a polythene sheet covering it, and the end was loose , so it went into the chain.
U can see a small bit of it still stuck in the chain.

Re: Bajaj Pulsar RS 200 Owners Review and Experience

I removed the sticker from the logo, and I got this sticker mark.I tried soap water. But no use.
Please tell me how to remove it.

Try nail paint remover deo with cotton or patrol

Re: Bajaj Pulsar RS 200 Owners Review and Experience

@Pawan Kajla idea is very good. Also I'd recommend to follow this DIY website. And the idea of making the engine warm or a bit hot is very important. Otherwise the bike will behave erratically when engine becomes hot. As for the fuel leak, excessive opening up shall result in fuel overflow and therefore you might see some spilling out through drain pipe. Follow as said in this link if you already have not done it this way. check this website bike advice.in (somehow xbhp doesn't allow posting or reference to this website, very stupid).

sorry xbhp doesn't allow the link. But I find this very useful.

Turn the idle settings screw so that rpm reaches about 3000 rpm. Now tune the air/fuel screw to make the mixture leanest as possible. Please refer to the above whether you must turn the screw clockwise or anti clockwise.As you make the mixture leaner, slowly the engine RPM decreases… Go on doing this until you have put the fuel screw to the leanest possible point. At the same time, ensure that the engine does not stall, by turning the idle-screw.OK the engine is running and the mixture is lean. If you notice from the engine sound OR if you see the tachometer, the engine RPM will not be steady at this point. Now very slowly start turning the fuel screw anti-clockwise, quarter to 1/8th turn at a time. You will notice that the RPM increases slowly and steadily. Again, do this very very slowly. Also count the total number of turns as you wind out the screw.You’ll notice that when you have turned it to about 3-4 full revolutions, the engine RPM slowly becomes constant. It is this point that you must stop screwing more. This probably is the optimal setting for your engine.Further on, try turning the screw even more and more to 5-7 revolutions and you’ll notice that the engine RPM will slowly decrease. When this happens, you are just putting in a too rich mixture in your engine. At this point the engine loses all the fuel efficiency and the mixture is not optimal. Repeat the process about 2-3 times. Count the revolutions each time and get the setting which you feel is correct.OK the engine is humming perfectly, now what? Decrease the idle setting screw to about 1000rpm in the tachometer. When the engine slows down, just twist the throttle. The response should be crisp and quick. It should not give any hiccups! Try shutting off the engine and restarting. The engine MUST start in a single kick or self with out giving throttle. If this happens, the setting is ok. Now get a ride and you’ll notice the difference for good or bad. You’ll immediately notice change in the engine sound and the throttle response. Your engine can become more smooth or harsh. Another important point is, Ride and Feel. Always take a ride and get the feel of the bike in each gears, check the response and the engine sound. You’ll quickly come to know once you get the feel of the bike that you want to make the mixture rich or lean.It may take a few iterations before you fix a setting as permanent. Try calculating the mileage per liter and tally it with your setting and the feeling you get

Re: Bajaj Pulsar RS 200 Owners Review and Experience

What exactly are you guys talking about? According to specs, RS200 is fuel injected. So which screw are you'll messing with? :O

Re: Bajaj Pulsar RS 200 Owners Review and Experience

Thanks for yje guide jbm.well the thing is I have never touched the AFR screw.it was actually the Fuel drain knob I was tuning.yes its a comedy of error by me.
Today I went to service centre and he told that the overflow screw and not the carb one.
I was relieved.so my carb settings is in stock yet.yep.it was actually the clutch settings which was giving me slow pickup .he foxed it and bike is back in form
So the last time I did was actually the overflow screw and not the carb.hehe
Bike is as smooth as silk and the sudden jerk is absolutely gone.now I am actually enjoying my bike ride.I think I am gonna keep the bike forever.love it [emoji7]

Re: Bajaj Pulsar RS 200 Owners Review and Experience

Yes after you get the bike the plastics should all be removed for safety purpose.also even a single bit of plastic causes rusting as water keeps on accumulating there

Re: Bajaj Pulsar RS 200 Owners Review and Experience

Hi All,

Yesterday I did some DIY on my bike and took off the rear tyre hugger and the small triangular bit too which kinda covers the rear disc oil tube. I just keep fingers crossed that I am not putting the tube in harms way. Attached are a few pics for my bike post it...







About the above, is there some way to kinda remove all the dirt from the tyres so they actually look black. Washing & scrubbing doesnt seem to solve the purpose coz they come back to this color post drying.

Also, could someone please assist me on the below -

How to use the chain tensioner as shown below ? What are the optimal settings for the same.



While cleaning the spark plugs I noticed that they were not right. I think I am running on a lean engine. I have always had my doubts on the Bajaj guy trying to persuade me that the AFR settings were optimal and I knew it wasnt the case and the spark plugs just confirmed the same for me yesterday. Need a second opinion though .. Rich or Lean ?





I am sure that my Bajaj guy is not able to tune it properly hence this issue. Could some one please suggest a good mechanic, preferable, Bajaj for me to get the engine tuned from ? I would prefer Gurgaon or South Delhi, if possible.

Thanks for all the help in advance guys.. Cheers !
