well i must say that this bike really makes my mind just fizzz up. The bike has got beautifull looks.

Well can some one just tell me one thing serious.. is there any possible way that the exterior for a bike is this and the interior ( means the engine part) is of honda unicorn.

Is there any modification or a reall pro out there can it be done. It is just a suggestion

There is a sensor which is attached to front wheel and the other end of the wire is connected with the digital instrument panel.This sensor works on contact basis so there might be a case that due to dust creeping in the contact was temporarily lost or the tension in the wire is too high.

Similarly make sure that the battery head is properly oiled(A special gel comes which is used by PBK guys to oil the battery head).Without this there will be carbon deposits and you may find that the starter is not working at its optimum level(Say 3/10 the starter is not firing the bike).

Temporary blockage or something similar.I guess your service is due.

This is very trivial.I'm not sure about the exact speeds on the mentioned r.p.ms(Never checked them with precision) but if its the same that you mentioned then first check your air filter box.Maybe oil or dirt is there.

Squeaking noise is perfectly normal.Every disc make the same kind of noise.Any other noise like the one chilled_fire mentioned and you should take notice.

One of the reasons:If you are facing leaking head then make sure that when the engine head is opened and the liquid gasket is applied it is applied on the black cap also because the bike that one buys(The new one is coming with the gasket applied on this cap) has no gasket protection in this section.

Can't figure out the first prob, I suggest let someone else also ride the bike to figure out what could be wrong.

As far as the 'trrr' sound, get used to it. Its normal!

Using a DOT4 brake fluid instead of a DOT3 does reduce the sound a wee bit though. But the improvement is not that great that you get the brake fluid changed.

And as far as convincing you goes, well we just told you our perspective, the final decision was taken by you only naa....

Squeaking is slightly different, and that happens due to dust. In all these kms my front has never had the squeaking problem, its usually the rear that squeaks a lot. Getting it cleaned will help.

Get it changed outside, warranty or nothing will be affected. BAL will not know, if you trust the mech and have prior experience with him. Get it done! Waise clutch replacement most prolly will not resolve your problem IMO.

@Jigar : +1

@Arjun : dude, reading such posts ppl do think as u thought, but trust me the Pulsar 220 is an AMAZING machine even its engine for that matter ofcource am not comparing it with YAm or Honda but it has come a long way...
The only issue is the Service center.

@Praful : again +1 , i told them atleast a 1000 time ki it might be balancer shaft , cause i have no issues with pick up and i mostly ride on highways, so there is very little chance of clutch worn out, but they never understand .
So i have got an appoint ment with this guy who wrks on SBKs at Andheri.
Lets see what he says....

@Chilled: Why dont you come down to Turbhe SC at SK Bajaj PBK ?? Atleast they are better than Thane guys. And the issue that you mention, abt engine bcoming very harsh after long rides..... first resolution would be oil change, but I guess you are already on 300v.... so thats not the issue. When you say harsh.... is it vibes or sound or what??
Coz I had the same issue, got my "Balancer shaft" overloaded at Pune (Shirode Bajaj PBK), and issue was very much resolved. Couple of days back I did a 350+km ride with pillion (Lavassa/Pune city n back)... and trust me... the engine was and is as smooth as it was that morning when I started the bike.

So what I suggest is get an appointment at SK Bajaj and get your bike checked once, and see what they have to say. If not... last resort is Pune.... and am sure ur issues will be sorted out at that SC.

^^^ Harsh = vibes in my case and after long ride the vibes can be felt even on ur a$$ man
anyways am done with Bajaj SCs, period ! waise bhi my bike is almost 1.5 yrs old now and warranty is for 2 yrs... guess will cause more harm in warranty than without one

Aaj as a temp solution my local mechanic here just cleaned the disc by pourin some petrol donno whether its ok but the noise is gone atleast for now .... will wait n see till next week.
He was sayin ki its a strict NO-NO to rub the disc pads with sand paper. any gyan on this ?

I dont know if that will work (petrol on disc).... but rubbing the disc with sand paper is a serious No-No according to me.... coz why should the disc be rubbed with something rough?? Clean it with a soft cloth... coz its not the disc ka metal roughness... theres something sticky stuck on it (and its not metal for sure), which can be removed by some solvent.... as ur mechanic did... petrol... sounds resonable

Btw.... my balancer shaft loading was not done under warranty.... they charged me around 350 bucks for that..... but it really changed the feel.... I am always happy to ride my bike now

I will also add this.... ur engine carries a warranty of 5 years.... and for the external warranty.... like silencer and all.... u always have insurance right ??

^^^ oops sorry my bad, i was talkin about disc pads and not the disc.
At PB they usually rub the disc pads with sand paper to remove any noise , but my mech said not to do tat, instead his method was using petrol.

any gyan on the balancer shaft loading ?? i mean technically ?

^^What I know is.... when ur engine works.... it makes vibes naturally.... so engines are equipped with a 'balancer' which generates equal and same intensity vibes but in opposite direction, so as to nullify the engine vibes to a extent. This is achieved by some springs (I think) and stuff.... and if the balancer shaft has some issues (timing and intensity of generating vibes).... then this happens. I maybe wrong.... but then... thats what I know

The balancer shaft is on the right side of the engine (the lower part.... behind the clutch assembly).

areey chetan ...ritwik ka mobile wasnt reachable and the Sai Service ssaid get this service as a paid service. So I guess I will take the hit and visit my bike dealer to arrange a second booklet for me. Yaar damages on my purse will be big for sure coz the head mech said that cone set doesnt form a part of bike warranty

Hmmm.... I know that the cone set wont be covered under warranty... it'll cost you somewhere around 800rs (incl. the labour)

@MG dada do u know what parts are covered under warranty and what are not

Read page No. 32-33 in your owner's manual.You will get a pretty good idea about the things that are covered under warranty.

lol . . that is the tragedy brother ... I lost the booklet mumma threw it away during thinking it was my old 150 UG2's booklet and so i stucked but I will get a new booklet ... can someone please check the booklet and tell me wht is covered under warranty

how much did you pay for balancer repairs
