      reason why iam asking this is coz, my 220 is due for a tyre change. i would like to use the Fz's tyre. even though they are 140/70 and 100/80, they are low profile tyres with more rounded profile so the contact patch will be similar to the present set on 220.more over they are soft compound tyres and weigh much less than the zapper. moreover the grip is awesome.

      PS: i don't want zapper or any hard compound tyres.
      also the overall radius will be a little smaller so the accelaration will be better, although at the cost of top speed and may be fuel efficiency...
      is FZ16's tires available in the market?

        Hi All,
        First Servicing done at 610 kms. Exhaust note has changed a bit. Now at Okhla PH I PBK service station, they added a small pouch of NANO Energizer with Eng Oil.

          I have seen them put it too.. don't have any idea if they are beneficial.. but they do charge you for them.

          Continue running in procedure of the bike.. at least till another 1000 kms.
          I did mine for around 2500 kms.. (started giving incremental bursts of speeds after 1500 kms).

          • Worried !

            Hello Payeng,
            Ok before 1st serv touched max of 54kmph. Also not continious, just kept opening the throttle for a while & then shutting it. Never crossed 4k rpm & 54kmph.

            But after 1st serv
            64kmph max but not continous also never crossed 4200 rpm. How much damage I have caused, if any?? I am really worried now. Please reply

              I dont think any damage is done per se. I mean, I have a new Pulsar 200 and it has done about 1800kms. till date. Up until the first service I kept it under 4k RPMs and after the first service, I generally take it to 4-4.5k RPM and it has been running like a dream..

              So, chill, I don't think there is anything to get worried about RX!

                thanks man. now will not take him beyond 62kmph & 4.2k rpm.
                Another question
                Last night I approached a traffic light very rapidly (within the said limit) so pressed the clutch & shifted down to 1st gear rapidly. The Bike stopped. Pressed the starter, it started. No warning lights appeared. Didnt encouter that Prob after that. Why could have this happened?

                  Well, that I have no idea about..Probably someone who has the P-220 could answer..But, I am pretty sure it was a normal phenomenon as well.

                  I mean, come-on these bikes are not SO delicate as to think a 1000 times before riding these (both during and after run-in)..

                      I actually have fallen in love with this bike so much that I have started treating it as one of my body part, an extension of myself.

                        @RX: Leon has said exactly what I wanted to say!! Just relax, and ride her, enjoy her. Riding sedately is a different thing, getting obsessed with her to the point that you forget to enjoy the ride, is an altogether different thing!

                        I agree that you feel that it is an extension of your own self; every biker is bound to feel the same way about his/ her bike. So, that's pretty normal. But, by the looks of it, you seem to have been obsessing quite a lot over the P-220!! I am also in love with my blue babe, but then again I don't obsess with anything anymore (and it applies to both relationships and machines!!)..
                        :)

                          Its just my opinion, bro. But I don't think the you should look at your bike like your own body part, because of the simple fact the that its not. I am not saying that you shouldn't take care of your bike but from your previous posts I think you have been delicate, almost TOO delicate, with your ride. The things you are experiencing is very normal. It can happen to any bike sometimes. Nothing is 100% efficient.

                          Think of it like your steed, which you will take care of, but the same time, you will not hesitate to make it run if needed.

                            Thanx to all of you guys!!

                            Yep, I am enjoying every km of my ride. My office is 20 kms from my residence. Although I could have availed pick & drop but I didnt. I just want to ride, complete the desired run in & go on a short trip ASAP with B2L & Swiftriders & other frendz.

                            Again, Thanks!

                              Same is the case with me. My office is about 15 kms. from where I stay and instead of availing free pick'n'drop, I prefer my P-200 ANY bloody day! It's fun, you know!!

                              P.S: Okay, enough of OTs already. Being a mod, I must warn you all!!

                              • I have been adviced by the PBK to use only high octane fuel (Speed 97, XTRAPREMIUM, POWER) for my 220. Any input on this guys?
