    I don't think that will help any better. It could change the pitch, but not the loudness. It might also screw up after adjustment. Also I have practically never tried that one. Have you tried?. Which screw is that?.

      Yup on two RS200 it will be loud enough after adjustment (at least for me it is) It won't be as good as dual horn but it will be better then before.

      We can always get it done by SVC and they will do it safely. But I personally prefer to do these small adjustment on my own , since horn is not easily accessible on RS200 I gave it to SVC and they did a good job.

      Picture I will try to post later as my motorcycle is at the service center.

        ohk.. will it damage the battery?? using a dual horn??

          little, just to be on safer side. You know AS doesn't have kicker. In case of low battery, you will have a tough time in starting up. That's why. I'm using dual horn, no problem. I don't think this can be for saving cost, because it costs 70-120/- rupees to be frank.

I've had a similar issue on previous bike. WATER...!!! Water entering into fuel pot can cause numerous headaches. It's symptoms are similar to that of yours, the bike will feel lack of power even though you open full throttle. Imagine water mixing with fuel+air and how do we expect the engine to work normally?, a basic physics question .

            They had to do a complete clean of fuel tank+carb+spark plugs. Water is dangerous, it can rust the fuel tank, make carb behave funny, spoil spark plugs (From my exp). That was all done for my disco. Took a toll, but then I wasn't aware of all these things and never wanted to know about it. Didn't know how the hell it entered. So on heavy rain, I always never fill fuel unless I feel safer
            Thanks for the advice bro.its hard to say if the air filter is damaged as I haven't opened it but I am due for service mwikl changebit anyways at 10000 kms.already 7590kms completed
            I went to service and he checked the spark plugs and told no water.then when he checked the AFR he could totally see it to be changed.it was lime locked.so he told someone had changed it.I argued and made him realise that no one even touches my bike and he agreed to it.then he tuned it back.so its stock settings now and power is back like it was before.
            What I am thinking is I gave my bike for wash.after the was it started.I highly think the power of the jet is too hhigh.its actually very high and while washing the AFR screw might have got changed .do u think it can happen?because that's the only thing I can figure out.

              Welcome bro, and yes you are lucky regarding easy access but my full fairing makes the miserable horn sound little better(like keeping hand behind mobile to increase sound)

                  Really?. Water wash with a strong jet had created some problems which i have read in our ns forums. But this is even strange. If shouldn't be that shaky right?. Did you do water wash in bajaj svc?

                    No outside. But that's the only conclusion I can come up with
                    Btw what problems it created as ud before on the forums.

                      Fit another horn, you will rock the road enough. Or look for skoda horns, should be available in snapdeal. It will blast others near by you (careful), others might mistake for a car [emoji6]

                      But i just went for two horns as that looked decent.

                        Yes you can. But if two horns are of same frequency, then you will gain only loudness but still of single tone. You can try swapping.

                          Some short circuit on console, some nuts and bolts going loose or missed. Then some guy posted even his coolant started leaking. After seeing so many, i stopped washing it out only do it at my svc

                            Took my bike and then went for a ride past Kolar.I don't know where I went after Kolar but I was just following the roads and the scenery was so so beautiful.it rained from the moment I left from home till I parked by bike after trip.i was all drenched but I decided to go as the experience was absolutely awesome.

                              It's a pleasure to ride in rain. However have to be careful. Breaking distance increases. We have to be cautious.

                              Good clicks [emoji106] . I too did a country side ride today. Check ns forum
