    The Pulsar DTSi engines need similar plugs for both the sides except the P220. For a P200 it is NGK CR9E on both the sides...

      PS - I would want to head to Padi soon. I wanna try out some stunting.
      My tyres are hopelessly pathetic right now, i've strated dfawdling about town at 35~55kmph, because the tyres are constantly scaring me with their grip (lack of it), and also the other thing i noticed is the the steering has started feeling light in comparison to earlier times, where at slow speeds the bike was a handful, but now it's as though it's riding on a cushion of air, scaring the living daylights out of me!

      Should not be problem as i've already changed my whole fork assembly at 8K

      How long can i delay this? It's already ~17K so i'm sort of worried

Some high speed cruising and you maybe prone to this damage. Its ok, its free for 5 years and unlimited warranty.
      NICE!!

        there is a bolt(big one) at the rear sproket..u can say..just below the saree guard...If that is shifted completly to the right then its time to change your sprokets.

        Spark plugs should be changed ASAP coz the stock ones last not more than 10K..check your plugs...there must be a lot of carbon deposits.
        try out with NGK G power...it will last easily for around 20K
        its all about CC...

              It will last much more than 20K Kms and costs double the regular plug. MRP = Rs 130.

                Rs. 130/-!! What is today? "Surprise-me-day"?? I think you missed a "0" there (Hoping you did'nt),
                Does this mean the normal plugs are Rs.65/-?
                Then why are the CR9 Series so damn costly? and
                BTW How long do they last?

                Sorry for the barrage of queries

                  How much was the CR9E's cost?

                  As per the NGK distributor here only GPower plug that costed more than Rs 30 was that of Unicorn/Hunk/CBZ-X/Acheiver/FZ-16. All use the same plug and MRP is Rs 200. Others it is Rs 130. Call up the distributor in your area (check at ngkntk.in) and find out.

                  For most plugs in the market the approx price is like - Champion - 55, Bosch - 65 and NGK 70.

                  Platinum plugs are very long lasting. Can't really say how much but are full paisa vasool in more ways than longer life.

                    Here the CR9E's.........last time i checked they came with a Rs.550/- MRP!! But will check up once again just to make sure

                    EDIT: And in the partfinder for the NGK spark plugs these is no G-Power available for Bajaj 150/180/200

                      That should be CR9E-IX - Iridium plugs. They are expensive at Rs 550 and I really don't know whether they are worth that money. Just my opinion though and I use one in my R15. I use a GPower (Platinum) plug in my Victor.

                      PS: CR9E would be regular Nickel plug. CR9EGP would be GPower plug.

                        MAte.. you captured my feeling exactly!!! and even worrisome is that my bike has barely crossed 6k!!

                        i dont know what the f*ck to do to get the handling behaviour back!.... its soo scary.. it feels like im on marbles all the time man!

                          ^^ As far as i observed the tyres are not really capable of handling bad/dirt/rocky roads, and where i'm coming from there are virtually no roads to write home about, right now the contact patch has grown by about 30mm and due to this running on 40psi pressure to keep the bike balanced

                            Depends if they changed the cone as well. If its an accident replacement, then they would try to minimize the replacement. So I doubt if your cone was replaced.

                            Dont worry, you'll know it yourself. Heavy chain noise. Feels like it would fall of when its in the last stages.

                            Replace it now. The spark plug may run some more, but its better you replace it. The spark may have gotten weak along with some good deposits.

                              Ahem.......the whole fork and the whole frame was replaced

                              Yeah right now the chain makes that horrible grating added with a heavy "Thunk" whenever i shift to first from stanstill, eventhough the chain and the sprocket gets a clean (with diesel) and lube every week (SAE90/Chain Spray)

                              Now i'm plain scared, i'm not touching my bike till that is replaced

                                After my first set of sprocket kit wore out, I replaced it with the 220 kit. About 4kmph increase in topend.Topped out at 132 speedo. Black speedo. (2 years and 2 month old bike. One of the first 200's in Bangalore.) Slight improvement in cruising ability but now im searching for a front sprocket that is about a teeth more so I can swap it when I'm on the highway. Increasing one teeth in the front should make a difference but I hope it doesn't drag too much and end up frying my clutch. Not like there's too much life left in my clutch. Do remember that changing to the 220 rear sprockets will cause some friction b/w the chain and the rubber bit on the swingarm.

                                One thing is weird about this thread. Everyone has their own set of problems and the next post is a new problem by itself.
                                How much percent drop in acceleration do you feel with the smaller 220 sprocket for city rides? Is it practical for 90% city and 10% highway riding.
                                Any increase in fuel efficiency after this mod?
                                Do you suggest this mod for me?

                                Be careful with the front sprocket mod, because if you increase a teeth with the same 37 teeth, you will get a theoretical topend of 143 @ ~9750RPM and 131 @ 9000RPM (redline), most probably it will feel like a 100cc bike in the city As you know the acceleration is not that amazing, given its a 200cc engine

                                If there is more friction than before, then that itself will cause drag and reduce mileage, not good news. Should check how 220 is setup then.

                                Thanks for sharing this info
