    your coil can go Kaput.we had experienced this on our recent ride to horsley hills .

    Regarding the stickers...I find it weird why would anyone remove stickers from a bike...I have seen it happening on the bigger Pulsar twins as well.

            probably because the bikes look much better without a big "pulsar" plastered all over the tank and only the cool bajaj logo.

            of course, this is when the owner himself removes the sticker.

            sorry for the O/T guys, lets get back to the arrrteeeaaarrs eh ?

              Maybe its the mentality we(Indians) have.I hope you must have noticed key scratches on new bikes or slit seats.

                i opened the headlamp assembly myself...and then found that the stock lamp is a Halonix 12V 35/35W H1 type lamp. Looks very similar to H4

                Phoenixlamps: Automotive H4

                ^^Halonix H4 lamps with the base type P43T

                Phoenixlamps: Automotive M5

                ^^Halonix H1S1 lamps withe base P43T



                So my question to all the experts is....Can I use any H4 lamp with power rating 60/55W?? rest of the electricals stock.

                • Yes u can. But, I think u will have to rewind the coil or remove the pilot lamps for it to be effective!!

                        A good long ride can clear your mind, restore your faith, and use up a lot of fuel.

                        Always be ready (get geared) to fall and then think of sitting on the motorcycle.

                          • Is my Engine Leaking Oil?

                            I was checking my bike recently and found this



                            and this



                            Is this serious? What do i need to do next?


                            Another Query - In the pic below, we see 3 pipes exiting the air box. The bigger one feeds the carb, what are the other two for??




                            And lastly this the present rear tyre on my Bike - Dunlop Geo Cruiser 100/90 and costed me 1100 bucks. Brilliant tyre!

                            • @Sai :: As for pics - 1 and 2, thats the in-famous leaking head problem commonly observed on Pulsars. I guess ur using MOTUL 300V now. Always happens due to the sealant wearing off. Get some anabond etc, open the cap and seal it back in. The SC guys should know about it. That should be fine. Else visit the 200/220 threads, u will get lots of info. I don't think u have run too many kilometers for the engine to drink oil.

                              As for the 3 pipes in the airbox, ur right about the first big pipe - its for air intake to carb. Of the two small pipes, one is for the hot oil fumes and air from crankcase to be exhausted. No idea about the other one.

                              For the tire, is it good? Will u recommend it as a buy for me?

                                U never had this problem till now?? surprising bro. 70-80% of the bikes i see @kiran tvs has this problem. Evn the RTR's....including mine

                                Just replace the head seal....everything would be fine!
