        Didn't got any info on this till today.

        May be it only with starter relay of P220.

        Though the engine is same, I don't think the "starter things" are also the same.

          Bro, this recall is only to replace the starter relays on some bikes, they will call or txt the owners about it and they get a free replace. As far as i read its only for the 220Dtsi models from a specific period.

              Any idea which specific lot they are targeting. Are the old 2009 Pulsar's being recalled? Any 220 owner received communication with this respect?

                I remember reading that if we dial up the service center guys and tell them the chassis number they will be able to identify if our bike comes under the mentioned lot. To which number we should call that i cant remember, try calling to your dealer.

                    Starter relay problem was also in the discovery a while ago. The service center guys were changing the relay during the general service for the affected lot of bikes free of cost with/with out the knowledge of owner and no 'recalling' or any such thing was there.

                      as now they are associated with ktm,kawasaki they want their brand image clean too,is that the reason behind not showing boxer in their product portfolio on their website....could well be.
                      and the question remains why do i race?
                      every finishing line is the begining of a new race.

                      #i have learnt to manipulate my own adrenaline and the perception of biking is different.
                      #overkill is underrated.
                      #how random roads may appear there is always a destination.sigpic
                      #i don't subscribe to co-incidence,either it is the rider or the other moron on the road

                      (:)people keeps on saying add spark to life, bajaj got hold of that idea and added an extra spark to bike.
