Thanks guys. But MRF is not easily available. The thing is that the valve was gone. It was leaking air with slow rate. Hence the tyre was running on low pressure for long time. And now it has three punctures.Plugged them. The tread is perhaps damaged because the front end is acting weird. It wobbles. And there is a lot of tyre noise also!

Where will i get MRF Nylogrip Zapper FS immediately?
My bike is in pain!

Check out the MRF showroom opposite to Alpha Laval , near Nashik phata...
Or the one on Dapodi road...
When I was searching for FZ's front tyre , it wasnt available anywhere but the showroom opp to alpha laval...

Every bike has its set of issues. With Indian manufacturer's its even more so and slightly more with Bajaj due to quality control issues. But then its totally dependent on your service center as to how they handle the bike during service.

The best of bikes can be screwed by the worst of mechanics at the service centres.

With Pulsar you need to give it a little more care than you would for other bikes, but its not like they are full of problems and will break down if you don't look after them. Eg: I serviced my bike after almost doing 6K kms of hard riding and even a trip to Leh in between. No issue at all!

In the end all bikes are well manufactured, its the treatment they get from the owner and service centre that decides how much problems its going to give!

i agree with you completely my 180 has almost clocked 1.2lakh kms and i got a new engine block at 1.10 lakh kms,infact people at the showroom were surprised as to how this happened?The mechanics said pulsars need reconditiong at 60k kms.My major concern is the auto choke which many people have been stating right from the start of the thread,I live in gurgaon and leave for my office in manesar at 0545..Now how good is a bike to me if it dosent start in the morning?(and no kick option is available)

see once the bike is maintained well, it will not give any troubles at all.... a well maintained bike means the engine, gear box, transmission is near prefect in running condition.. if ur bike is to be running well, it should start right?

relax.....
go for what ur mind says...

u knowing this much will help coz i feel u'll take care of it...

and if (by chance) ur bike doesnt start, put it in gear..press the clutch..find a slope to push ur bike to a decent speed get on the bike, release the clutch..... method also called push start.....

yeah for sure man ..thanks for the advice
p.s there isnt any slope nearby

I dont mind the speeds shown. For a long time iam driving without the speedo.
Would the R15's tyre do any good if not bad?
Finally which one u think would be better?

It comes. Check this.

I would think of such mods when i start earning. I dream of having an RD350 engine on FZ chasis and P220 engine on R15 chasis.
I would say give slightly harder suspension a try. The route to my college is kinda similar to off-roading more like a dirt track with many jumps which i do at high speeds. The bike feels better with harder suspension.

What i meant by extreme stress was the riding style which is continuous redlining for long stretches? For instance i like to have the rev-limiter kicked in while riding. So at times i drive in 1st gear or 2nd gear with the rev-limiter kicked in for long stretches (5 kms+). In such cases wont a colder plug work better? I was running on 9 and 8 but switched to 8 and 9 few days to see if there is any difference.

You missed this.
Would u kindly post a video of how u powerslide with an explanation of the technique involved?
Get the CO tuned again. Low mileage can also be due to bad petrol.
Rev the bike and make them hear the sound.

Thats good news for me. Now i would be happier if i get a small review from your side on the tyre.

Well, the manual clearly states checking and filling of NitroX gas every 10k kms.

MRf Zapper FY 80/90/17 , stock tyre of R15 but I'm using in my 200 along with vyde at the rear and the combo is just perfect. On roads, it is way to good, sticks to the road like anything. When the rains started, for once I was scared whether it would sustain or not, but gradually the fear just went away and the grip on the water is actually good. Never experienced it on off roads. For rs700/- what else you want.

well...i got my free-flow aka BOOster exhaust its titanium finished..lol..

nyhow i want to know abt is fitment..i am gonna make a custom bent pipe set for it..but on our FIs..we have something in middle of exhaust system..i mean underneath engine there something which is connected to exhaust pipe...whts tht..n shud we do same in BOOSter fitment?also how much wud bent piped of 220 cost?


heres image...sorry for bad pic...camera batteries discharged

Hey the exhaust is looking damm sexy how much is the cost?????

@Rahul

Check my manual book and it states 300ml for the fork.


@monty007

Dont screw ur bike man!

thank you bro...its a free flow..bike is revving more quicker than before...but hell of loud...anyhow im gonna use it for next 1-2 months...Costs around 2.5k only.. ..

im too worried for it..but as i fitted it now lets use for some months only...made custom pipe system for it..ill post pics tomorrow..

n yes where can i get Two brother sitckers..lol..someone kind enuff..plz send one.. :P

@@@@@@@ MOnTY BHai :

keep cycling ur exhausts... never stay on one for tooo long... as far as i know u wont be creating much trouble to ur engine for quite a while...but u know what ?? even if ur bike misfires now, it'll get muffled by the loud dub dub dub sound...

make sure u don get any last( oddly placed ) dub or loud PHAT sound.. adjust ur spark plug gaps or do as i told u earlier..remove spark plug.clean..install it back..

make sure u have drain holes for the rain water to drain out...

PS : kindly upload a video of the STaRTup... ReVvinG ......FLYbY

waiting to see the vid..... record and upload it fast ........

yaah wil post the pics n revving pic today...abt flyby..will post of saturday ride.. ..i will clean spark plug..how much amt of force shud i apply to them to remove ...n clean them with wht?

KAHI HAATH MEIN NA AA JAYE --SPARK PLUGS

36T rear sprocket and sirac tyre

speed with RPM

5th gear 62 @ 4000 RPM
77 @ 5000 RPM
92 @ 6000 RPM
105 @ 7000 RPM
122 @ 8000 RPM
131 @ 8700 RPM but was under 9 RPM

in 4th gear i went till 131 kmph then the road was not clearly visible i slowed down

all theses i tested in the new madurai - dindigul 4way lane

while comming to my native kodai kanal

cruise ing 90 kmph is a pleasure . and also returned a good effeciency of
35 kmpl on highways at continuous riding @85 to 90 kmph


i touched 136kmph @9000RPM in 5th gear . i went 5kms continously . the speed varied from 133 kmph to 136 . it is not going beyond 136 .


guyz post some info abt the sirac with 37t sprocket

now only i changed the full chain kit @ 16000kms

almost 600 kms runed in the new chain kit

planning to change the chain set to 37t after your reviews and ill give the
36t to my friend

but some how i won the drag against the ug4 180
