Mileage difference of 2014's Pulsar 150 & 180 ??

Can any experienced people, owners, experts please answer this question ?? I'm in dilemma to Go for which one.

Re: Bajaj Pulsar 150 All Versions

Also don't forget to clean the centrifugal oil filter during the first oil change(IT's CRUCIAL for your engine).
The link is in my signature

You took a wise decision of keeping the bike stock.
Drilling hole in the 220 camshaft would have unbalanced it and it would have created havoc to the bearing after fitment.
Remember all moving parts are cast/machined to be balanced during rotation.

As for the gearshift problem adjust clutch lever free play and check drive chain slack(If it's too loose or tight it will cause problems with gear change).
and don't use GTX it will cause your clutch to slip.
Use valvoline W50 grade it's one of the best oils for pulsar.

Re: Bajaj Pulsar 150 All Versions

Hi guys need one quick help.... I have pulsar 150 classic 10 years old and in stock condition... However off late i have noticed the engine oil is leaking and also white smoke is coming out of exhaust... I have maintained the vehicle in good condition with regular service every 5000 kms... Dont know if its the oil seal worn out and also the bore needs replacement...

Please help as i intend to repair it myself

Re: Bajaj Pulsar 150 All Versions

Balgi bro... My bike completed 500 kms post the new bore piston change and i have changed the engine oil. I am unable to source Motul 3100 anywhere.. so purchased castrol Active xtra 20w50.. will be changing the oil after 1700kms as per your suggestion


Thanks for advice V!RU$ bro. You helped me a lot..

I have gone through your thread and its very informative. Prith bro also added good points.. As you suggested, i insisted my mechanic to clean oil pump and oil filter..!!! Man,,,, so much of METAL SHAVINGS there..... I havent expected that much.. Really....

I am adding pics bro.. If you want to add them in your thread, you are most welcome...

Oil pump with Removed oil mesh/filter..





Oil mesh/filter with visible metal shavings inside and outside mesh..








The below portion/space down the clutch plates (Visible black oil) has lots and lots of metal shavings.. They are thoroughly cleaned with plenty of petrol... Really the metal shavings are much present in that area..



Now the cleaned oil mesh/filter



The centrifugal oil filter has a thick lining of paste of metal shavings and black grease like thing.. The mechanic removed that paste like thing using a screw driver and thoroughly cleaned using brush and petrol,,,














Now after the total job.. You can find the thoroughly cleaned filter and the cleaned below space (Down clutch plates).. I stood there by asking him to clean thoroughly Really thanks a lot for this advice bro.. You deserve it...!!!



One doubt bro's...

After adding the new oil the mark came to below the mark on stick, that is...
Stick removed, cleaned and just placed inside without tightening it and watched.. the oil mark is below the stick....???
Please watch in the pic below.. The oil level is exactly at the pointer mark




The stick cleaned, tightened and taken out, the mark is just touching the mark...



As far as i remember the mark should be above the xx marks or at least should reach the top x mark... I am confused.. any idea bro's..?? Please suggest...

Re: Bajaj Pulsar 150 All Versions

Hey man don\'t thank me, thank your mechanic coz he deserves it....
Judging by the pics he did a good job.
I don\'t have broadband currently so I\'ll edit the thread with your pics later.
And I would like to thank you for taking the pics, the ones with the oil pump were really needed in the thread.

It\'s a lengthy job and do you seriously expect the service guys doing this on the first free service..!!
So the filter is never opened and cleaned which causes these metal shavings to circulate inside the engine after the centrifugal filter clogs up..
That\'s how it ended blocking your oil pump filter net which indicates the shavings have circulated throughout your engine and ended up in the sump !!

Even Bajaj recognized this and all the newer models have a separate oil filter cap on the clutch cover itself which makes it easier to clean.

The manual recommends 1.1Ltr on overhaul like this one..
You must have used 1Ltr of oil which is why dipstick is showing low oil..

You can go to Bajaj service station and ask for top up.
They supply Bajaj Oil 20W50 in loose.(Try asking for it in bigger service stations)
Remember any oil is better than no oil.

Fill about 100-200ml and measure again DONOT overfill more than half mark on dipstick..
When measuring on dipstick make sure that you wait for 5min after stopping the engine.

Also due to the cold weather be gentle on the throttle on cold engine.
If you have trouble with cold morning starts then use choke and let it idle for about 30seconds.

Re: Bajaj Pulsar 150 All Versions

Hello Guys,
-My pulsar 150 ug4 recently started emitting white smoke when I start it in the morning. Usually the smoke is for 10-15 seconds and then theres no smoke at all. This only happens when i start it in morning and when the bike warms up theres no sign of smoke all day.
-Bike is modded, has K&n airfilter, upjetted carburetor and free flow exhaust.
what do you guys think? Is it the valves or the piston rings which have gone kaput?

Re: Bajaj Pulsar 150 All Versions

It may be moisture accumulated in the exhaust overnight.cover the opening of exhaust with polythene or something like that before parking the bike after your last ride in that day.If there is no white smoke next morning then nothing is wrong with your bike

Re: Bajaj Pulsar 150 All Versions

So right you are ! Its the moisture inside the exhaust. I covered my exhaust overnight and there was no smoke in morning. Thanks !
