Awesome. I guess I'll wait till then too. Besides, I saw that guy doing stoppies with an eraser on his front rim, so I think my treads are decent enough for now. What say?

So far completed 6100km and into the 5th month of ownership!

Gear shifting at times is rough and the rest of times its smooth like anything. I'm simply loving my bike experience coz its my first bike

Well thats quite old update

i had touched 126 with crouching position

bike is simply awesome...presently gear shifts are absolutely fine...but sometimes i have problem changing to 5th gear dunno why ?? any guys experiencing same probs ?

really lookin forward for Honda CBF 150 then.. especially for the tyres.. hope it would consist of the same profile and compound as on the R15 tyres..

FZ's fit the 200, but the problem is trhe low-profile of all these tyres on Yamaha's, they will damage your rims on bad roads, which is why i'm refraining from going for tyres with low-profiles

Well we'll have to wait and see

, If either the Ninja or the Cbf comes out with 120 i'll be happy

EDIT: @Insidious: Yeah dude i think it's better to wait and then deciding on which tyre to go for, if there is one thing i hate it's when i buy something and find something more appropriate sitting in the showroom then regret for not having waited a few more days (minutes in some cases!!)

So true. I bought my 180 a month before the 200 was released. I'll never forget that period. Now, I feel the same way towards the R15.

Cone-set

Hi,
I am facing a problem with the cone-set far too often, I have done 20k+ kms on the bike and the cone set is changed thrice alreadly is this normal?

**rohitmundra** · 02-23-2009, 08:14 AM

I want to know some details about the cone set....What does it actually do?
I've done 20k+ kms but still haven't replaced it.

But I think its something related with the handling. I guess its not normal because the bearing balls inside it works quite well until there has been some kind of accident, fall of the bike, etc.

Fork Cone Set is a set of two open bearings that hold the handlebar & fork assembly to the chasis.

If it is gone you will notice tak tak kind of sound when the front wheel hits a pot hole or a speed breaker.

Hey thanx for the info man.. You post mademe realise that my cone-set has gone.. also.. the handle bar touches the right ride on the scoop.. My handle is not bent for sure..

**ritwik23** · 02-25-2009, 04:09 AM

hey guys...is anyone facing issues with handling in highspeed corners??have anyone of u felt like the bike is reluctant to turn while doing cornering in ghats or sumthin like that?

**EL LOCO DIABLO** · 02-25-2009, 12:47 PM

^^ Ahh!! you have arrived to the world of Pulsars my friend, there is nothing wrong with your bike, the 200/220 are not the best choice when it comes to cornering, don't take me wrong, you can do your knee-down shenanigans and all that in these bikes but the problem is that the suspension on this bike are just not stiff enough to exit a corner cleanly and yet carry the speed from your entry.
