Got K & N R1100 (OIL ONE) on my P200 2day...

2469 + 200 (labour charges).

Felt little bit difference in performance.But one thing i had observed is engine is heating a bit.


any comments ???

Your Bike is running lean man. Need to get the carb tuned to adjust to the extra air flow. Bigger jets are in order.

What is this upjetting and stuff ??..can sum1 give brief idea.

How about carb tuning ??

Well, with the extra oxygen flow into engine, Fuel flow must also be increased.

Jets are those components within the carburettor, which regulate fueling by regulating only the fuel flow.

So, you must get a new jet installed in your carburettor in order to allow more fuel, that matches the new Air flow. ONLY THEN, Performance will noticeably increase.

I "THINK" Karizma's jet might do the job just fine. But, I'm not sure of it.

Scenario: Bike running pretty "ok" after a crappy second service.. no issues with the bike but not performing great either... Sunday i ride to a friend's place and spend some time. Evening i come down to leave and the bike is just not switching on! Dead! So i push start the bike, and everything seems fine.. the meter lights turn on, my indicators work, headlights work, but the horn doesn't. Seemed like the battery was down. But the damn battery low indicator doesn't blink.. I ride home and park her thinkin i will take her to amazing PBK guys during the weekend.
This morning, I thought i'd give it another go.. and voila... like nothing ever happened.

Question, what was Sunday's "drama" all about then?

Not too sure, but have you checked the fuse?

fuse? never read the manual.. dunno where the fuse is!

****am sure am losing face here

Just beside the battery is a small black case. Open it ... there'll be a spare one there. Replace the current one and check if the electricals work fine.

Edit:
Read your previous post again and you mentioned that...
If that's the case then something is not right and I dont know what

^ Yeah dominic.. infact have ridden my 200 to work today.. just went and checked if my bike is "playing dead" again.. nope.. it works fine! Wonder what the issue was/is(?).. anyway.. thanks!

wat about changing air-fuel ratio using the screw at carb,u can make a rich mixture for k&n filter than re jetting it
my friend is doing this for fz and is working well.

ok can anyone of the more technically sound guys here help me out?

After a sideswipe earlier last month, i had a crash on the right with the bike. Though most of the damage was superficial with a broken fairing and a bent handlebar, there didnt appear to be any other damage to the bike.

I quickly got it repaired and for good measure the service guys got the forks checked and straightned too.

However heres what i dont understand now, inspite of everything being checked and fixed and having the service guy check the bike out twice, the handling has just gone for a toss.

The trouble is that anything over 30kmph and the bike gives me the feel that its "tilting/leaning" to the right. It doesnt PULL to the right as people ask me when i tell them about it, but it feels like rather the balance is a lean to the right. Also the front feels really light and scatterbrained! requiring constant correction during turns or to compensate for road conditions. It feels like its really light at the front end, with the result that i have absolutely no confidence for right turns. Even if i practically crawl at 14kmph or less during the turn. It just scares the hell out of me.

Likewise i just cannot get the bike to feel planted dead centre on speeds above 35. Yet the service guys and friends that i've given the bike to say there doesnt appear to be anything. Although my friend didnt try it at high speeds, he didnt find anything amiss.

Does anyone have this feeling or know whats causing it? The exact feel that i get from the bike on medium speeds when is that as if the rear tyre will slide from under me and skid causing me to fall or "dip" to the right.

Even under braking there seems to be a lean to the right.

Could this be an issue with wheel alignment? or the complete front fork assembly? Also is it likely to be any chassis related issue causing the COG to shift?


I really dont know what to do? And i cant even ride it for any practical use at all because of this response that i get!

I'd appreciate any help!

I saw P200 with white dials like the one on new P180, is it coming with white dials now or is it the new 2009 version? Sorry couldn't notice anything else I was driving the cage

These white dials have been incorporated on the P200/ P220 since quite some-time now. I had bought my P-200 way back in August, 2008; it has these white dials.

My friend had the same issues after suffering a similar accident....The bike would lean towards right....shpwed it to the PBk but the guys couldn't figure ou what the problem was.....Will call him and ask if he has got the problem solved lately.....

Ps. He bought a new p200 after that and doesn't ride the older one these days....

P200s are prone to these issue after a crash....here are a few things that u need to check...

1. Check the thearding of the front and the rear tyre (ask a good tyre shop to check it for you)
2. Check the rear shocks as one of them is a bit more softer than the other.
3. Check the cone set...this normally gives feeling that the handling is not right from the front.
4. Get the sprockets checked if it has more play than usual.
5. If all of the above dont work then get the Chassis checked.
