Re: My 5th Pulsar (Update)
dont make blanket statements like that, you should change your oil a fair bit before 3500Originally posted by Srinivas sr143sr View PostCant really do anything great with stock setup.
But i can give ome suggestions. I have the same bike
.
Valvoline Xtra premium synthetic blend (Semi synthetic oil) 20w50 is the best oil for any Pulsar till date. Holds strong even at 3500 Kms. None can beat this oil at its price range.,

if you are happy with the performance of a particular brand of oil just stick to it , no need to change because somebody else thinks soOriginally posted by Venkatesh24 View PostSorry for late reply, Thanks for your reply Bro.
Finally i decided " Motul 3100 4T 20W50 " Semi synthetic is the best for this Air cooled 150CC Engine. Is this correct or should i change it to another ?
Currently i am using HP Max 4T oil Which is available in Petrol bunks

Re: Bajaj Pulsar 150 UG 4.5 Headlamp power
Originally posted by Bismaya View PostI would suggest running sanely during the run-in period. Ride within 50km/hr for 1000kms and then more up gradually.

65k is quite a lot and you should change your headlamp, reflector and lighting coil (if needed). Use Osram Silverstar if you're searching for better lighting.
Sorry for late reply, Thanks for your reply Bro.
Now my Engine Clocked almost 1.2K ODO After new kit changed, After i changed a small Kit in Carb. The Pickup is slightly increased (Not much to notify) But juddering is reduced. Now Im getting Economy of 48KMPL (Loc+Hig). now Im riding In between 60 to 65 KM/H @ 5K RPM
Some how the engine feel like stressed while accelerating above 5K RPM. Weather it will automatically decrease or should i do something ?
And another one question in my Mind Which oil should i use to get optimum performance, Reduce vibration I searched a lot about Motul, Shell, Valvoline Oil
Finally i decided " Motul 3100 4T 20W50 " Semi synthetic is the best for this Air cooled 150CC Engine. Is this correct or should i change it to another ?

thanks for the advice will surely try the avenger setup.Originally posted by Srinivas sr143sr View PostCant really do anything great with stock setup.
But i can give ome suggestions. I have the same bike
- 1. Change the headlight Original assembly to new wolf eyed model and change the bulb to Philips crystal vision or Philips normal bulb 35/35 watt.
The beam spread and visibility increases many folds for this setup.
But If you wish to increase your light focus and strength significantly.
Point 1 is must and should try this first and still if you are not satisfied enough try the below points for supporting upto 60/55w bulb
2. Avenger 180 stator coil + Avenger 180 Rectifier + 60/55W bulb
Avenger 180 rectifier is a must because the stock rectifier can not not handle the extra power and can fail at any point.
Bulb options for 60/55 w : Philips Xtreme vision (Costly) or New Pulsar 200 NS Headlight bulb (only new model) or Normal Philips 60/55 w bulb( available at maruti spares , just ask philips 60/55w bulb for Maruti zen )
But theres a catch... the Pass switch responds slowly. This is because Pulsar 150 UG2 heavily rely on AC current for Speedo Bulbs, Pilot lamps, brake light(when you switch on headlight), number platelight(you can safely remove it to decrease load) when compared to avenger 180.
3. Add a bit of extra wire from regulator to headlight to decrease the load on stock wire.
And for the oil Pulsar atleast upto UG4 need xW50 grade oil. xW40 will not be good at all.
Valvoline Xtra premium synthetic blend (Semi synthetic oil) 20w50 is the best oil for any Pulsar till date. Holds strong even at 3500 Kms. None can beat this oil at its price range.,
Making it DC from AC setup. Is it worth it?

Cant really do anything great with stock setup.Originally posted by Seamus View PostHey there, even I was close to buying a NEW Honda Shine for comfort and Mileage, but the prices have sky rocketed even for a puny commuter. Hence this made more sensible decision for me.
And Yeah you are right about the leg guard, will soon buy a new one.
As of now am Using Mobil1 20w40. And as per my experience its smooth as well. Only after 2000km it loses its refinement a bit.
Any Suggestion for this weak Headlight ??

Re: My 5th Pulsar (Update)
Hey there, even I was close to buying a NEW Honda Shine for comfort and Mileage, but the prices have sky rocketed even for a puny commuter. Hence this made more sensible decision for me.Originally posted by Zapps View PostGood to hear about your experience. I myself upgraded from Honda Shine to Bajaj Pulsar 220. These old gen Pulsars have good characteristics, soft sprung and torquey low end. Add to that easy parts availability and low cost to maintain.
Although I'd advise you to get a new leg guard instead of bending a bent one as it compromises the safety aspect. And change air filter every 5k kms and change to any simple cheap mineral oil at 2-3k kms (in my experience, Waxpol oil is smooth for Pulsars).

(14yr old)
ODO reads 64000km now, purchased at 58000km. Completed 6000km & The Bike is still running Strong.
What i want to highlight here is the maintenance cost on this bike, Absolutely minimal.
Work done on 2nd service as follows.
1) Chain Cover noise
2) Caliper Jam's when handle turned right (overhaul of front caliper)
3) Helmet Lock Removal (required cutting of the lock)
4) Coneset Bearing lose (tightening the bearing)
5) Oil Change / Air Filter Changed & regular checkup and greasing
6) Overhaul Swingarm and replace the Bushing
7) Side Stand leaning too much for my liking (new 150 bracket sourced and welded to chassis)
8) Leg Guard Bend (Straightening required)
All this Costed me 1300rs Including oil/spares and Labour.
Very Happy with my Decision of Purchasing Classic Bike instead of buying new 125cc motorcycle.
What i Like about this motorcycle
1) Classic and Subtle Look of the motorcyle ( Those Silver Alloys, i like them any day compare to Black ones)
2) Purchase Cost is very low, maintenance & Spares are almost Negligible compared to new Motorcyles
3) Smooth & torquey 150 DTSI engine, No Buzz/vibration till 90kmph, Cruises easily at 85-90kmph with top speed of 110 with pillion. Perfect Balance of torque and Mileage (50kmpl)
4) Lower Pillion Seat height for Family. Ride & seat both are soft & plush
5) Light & easy to maneuver
Tried Uploading Pictures but its failed to upload. ill try uploading again by evening.
What I Dislike is the Headlight its too weak.
Any Solution or Suggestion for this AC Setup Headlight???

My 5th Pulsar (Update)
Second Service Update, of my Pre-Owned Pulsar 150 DTSI UG2. (14yr old)Originally posted by Seamus View PostHello all,
My short Story:
I wanted to buy a commuter bike for work and city commute. My 200ns was lacked comfort. It made me feel tired by the time i reached my destination. And with just avg of 30+ kmpl i was strongly convinced to buy a commuter bike. I did lots of research and concluded shine sp 125 ticked all my boxes. The onroad was close to Rs 80000. But then i had a thot of considering a second hand bike. I looked for cheap deals. Suzuki gs150r 6 gear was tempting. But suzuki spares were expensive. And also the spares might be difficult to source. So came pulsar 150, but i was clear on prefering ug2 model with silver alloy and silver engine. As thats the only pulsar 150 i liked in terms of looks. Simple and not so edgy and pointy design. Silver alloys and silver engine And love for the analog meter.
Luckily i found a pulsar 150 ug2 2005 single owner genuine 58k kms. The bike was kept in basement and for past 8 years it barely run 100km a year. The condition was very good for 14 year old bike. Not even once was the insurance lapsed, maintained timely. All work done only in bajaj svc center. New battery amaron put a 6mths back and insurance valid for another 10months.
Now coming to the repair required on the bike. It badly required new set of tyres. Engine oil and clutch plate as the gear was too hard. Front and rear tyre were jammed. Exhaust was rusted. And as usual routine service. One good thing i find about such bike is the spares are pretty cheap.
The bike costed me 8.7k and 3.3k for tyres, 1.2k for 2nd hand silencer. 1k for complete clutch set and 400 for oil +500 for service.
Ofcoz there are few other small expenses like airfilter and break pad. But all in all my total expenditure has been 16000 including the bike cost and maintenance.
Now coming to the result. After all this repair, the bike has become unbelivable smooth. The gears are precise the suspension is perfect as i wanted. The bike glides, and behaves as if i just got it from showroom. The avg i get is easily 50kmpl. And top speed of 110kmph with pillion. I feel very happy that i opted for this bike wich has more of character and personality than the current commuter bikes and at such a price.
ODO reads 64000km now, purchased at 58000km. Completed 6000km & The Bike is still running Strong.
