I actually have pulsar disc and is not at all satisfied with the stopping power .
    get your caliper bled properly , if that is not enough then get the minor and major kit changed, the discs you are referring to are thai/malaya make, imho, stay away from then, looking good and actually stopping the bike are entirely different things

                Yes , it's a direct fit, cheap, and parts are easily available, if you have money to spend go for gladiator setup

                    For the amount you will spend acquiring and rebuilding one you can buy another rx

                      Just curious,Discs have much better stopping power than the traditional drums,Combined with the low weight of the bike,Won't this mean that wheel locking under braking would be a common sight to see ? Also RTR's Petal setup is larger in diameter than both the Pulsar and Gladiator,But why is it in the 3rd position ?

                      I'm planning to get front disc setup from Pulsar,on my bike due to many heart in the mouth moments with the inadequacy of the front drum.I agree on the ease of getting parts related to the brakes,Pulsar setup is the best in cost also.

                      Thanks [emoji4][emoji120]

                        Because getting parts for the Apache kit is a royal pain, especially the front hub and mounting plate

                          Re: Random Questions regarding the RX series

                          I am looking for a new RX 100 tank.
                          Online it is available from after market manufacturers like Zaddon and Satpro ,Price ranging from 3500 to 4000.
                          Which one to go for?
                          Or is it better to search for OE?

                            Don’t buy from safex bikes those guys don’t provide good spares.
                            Actually 4th quality spares....

                            Place an order at your nearest Yamaha “Parts centre” for a new tank. For ₹3500 I guess and that is the best bet for a new tank

                              Anyone knows about the use of pulsar 200NS's front disc setup in an RX ? Is it good ?

                                if you can fit it in the spoke wheel set up sure. But in personal opinion always found bajaj's stuff a bit concerning. Suggest TVS Honda or Yamaha parts.
