Care for your Bike

How proud we feel when our bike is just one week old! There is a shine in the bike and the empty number plate tells our friends that it is brand new. But most of us really start caring less about the bike's looks as time goes on, and the bike is no longer shiny and appealing. But think again, a few minutes of extra care every day will keep it as good as new. And do you remember? Girls like clean and neat guys! The following tips will help your bike to look better than your neighbor's...

Cleaning & Washing : Wash the bike yourself once a week with hand cloth and a bucket of plain clean water. Do not use any detergent or chemicals, as it would harm the paint finish of the bike. Don't give the bike for water wash outside frequently as the water jet spray used has high pressure and will enter the electric circuit and wires, also more importantly stagnate at some unapproachable places and eventually lead to rusting. Always remember your bike must look good every time you hop on it. Just as we bathe, brush, shave and comb everyday your bike bike also needs some basic care and is entitled to proper maintenance. The cleaner your two-wheeler is the better your bike will perform.

Cleaning your bike yourself improves your bond between you and your two-wheeled steed and its fun as you would discover and explore your bike and learn more about your two wheeler. it also gives you a good workout as you stretch and reach for those unapproachable places. Wash your bike gently with water and hand and wipe clean with a soft clean cloth. Getting the bike water washed once a month is acceptable. Make sure you take your bike out for a spin immediately after the water wash as it would automatically dry the water at places you cant reach by hand. Make sure you cover the exhaust while cleaning your bike with polythene cover and secure a rubber band tightly across the exhaust and the plastic cover.

Protection of cycle parts: Always park your bike under a shadle as this would help you conserve fuel as the shade prevents not only the loss of fuel due to evaporation but also protect your bike's paint finish. By not exposing your bike to too much sunlight or rain or dust you can enhance the life of the cycle parts of your two-wheeler especially the rubber parts. For most manufacturers rubber parts are not easily available for sale at most dealerships and the rubber parts play a major role for your two wheeler's performance. Always remember the rubber engine mountings, the rubber fuel lines, the electric wires insulation can take a beating due to too much exposure to the environment.
Use rubber patches to prevent rusting : Try to stick tube rubber to the bottom surface of two wheeler's side stand and main stand. By doing so the metal won't scratch against the ground thereby protecting the paint finish. This helps in preventing rusting of the under sides of both the stands especially during rains as rainwater will rust the parts wherever there is no step (as shown in the third picture, on the right side) and put the bike on to the side stand or main stand.

Rust prevention spray : There is a spray called WD40 it is an anti rust spray. Use it in places where your two-wheeler develops rusting so that the spray prevents further rusting of the part.

Teflon coat : Get the bike Teflon coated once every 3 months as the environmental conditions these days wreak havoc on your bike. It would only cost you Rs. 150-200 depending on the shop and wont take more than a couple of hours and will ensure your bike is rust free and protect the paint finish.

I am going to stick to the above tips to keep my bike always shiny and sexy.....

Bajaj pulsar 150cc DTS-i Review

The Bajaj pulsar is the first bike in india which came in direct competition with the Hero Honda CBZ. Later Bajaj introduced pulsar 150cc DTS-i with digital twin spark ignition and till today pulsar is one of the most sought after bike in the 150cc segment. it has definitely won over other bikes, but let us justify its triumph.

How does it look?

The engineers at Bajaj realized the fact that if there is no beauty and only brawn, it is not going to sell in indian market. Claimed to be designed and developed in japan, this bike does have a head turning looks. The most noticeable feature of the bike is the tank. Big tanks give a big bike feel, and when pulsar was introduced, it had one of the biggest tanks in india.
The design of the headlamps has been viewed differently by people. Some really love it and some say it could have been designed better. The head light comes with city lights also called tell tale lights which is a value addition to its looks. Bullet and karizma were the only bikes with city lights before pulsar was introduced.
The tail part of the bike.. hmm, yeah, i could say it is nicely designed too. Here too there is a difference of opinion. The new razor sharp rear light whether looking good or nor not, definitely adds to the uniqueness of Bajaj Pulsar.

How does it perform?

Bajaj says "DTS-i gives high power with out compromsing on mileage." and the bike lives upto this statement. Another great advantage of the Digital Twin spark ignition is the throttle responsiveness. Definitely the throttle response is better than the CBZ. it does give a good adrenaline rush when you twist the throttle.
when i had a ride on this bike, what i felt was a felling of insecurity even though the bike is heavy, I some how felt that the bike is not as safe as the karizma. i cannot technically explain why it is so, but that what i felt. But the pickup is awesome. Karizma picks up in slow and steady pace and maintains stability at high speeds. but pulsar jumps off pretty fast but cannot be as good as the karizma when at speed more than 80 Kmph.
Bajaj has generously provided pulsar with good disc breaks, but the brakes are too sensitive that it has to be applied carefully. I have heard many people applying the front discs too quick and due to the type of weight distribution that the bike has, the bike topples over.

it is claimed that the Bajaj pulsar 150cc gives a mileage of around 55-60kmpl. But it greatly depends on user riding quality, service quality and frequency of maintenance.

How does it stand out?

Bajaj pulsar was a great buy something ago, but right now considering the competition there are better bikes around from honda, Tvs and Yamaha. People are already bored seeing too many pulsars in the city. It is time for bajaj too launch a new 150cc model to its product line.

The digital console was an attraction a while ago, but now many bikes have introduced them. if you are a Pulsar fan and have admired the bike for quite a long time, then go ahead and buy it....
