  • 5 Yrs of 200ns ownership review(2012 model)

    7 years ago


    Vishnu

    I bought this as my second choice my 1st choice was to buy bullet due to its high maintenance i backed out from buying bullet.But i'm happy because it was mostly trouble free owning this bike apart from minor issues because i travel lot in alone to a long distance but it never let me down on my long trips only problem i faced is that loosening of chains frequently it is still unsolved i think that will be the case for most of the owners.Another improvement needed in seating department because it is very hard and cannot ride long stretch without taking a break.That must improve otherwise touring will be little difficult.Braking is not good i thought may be of bad quality stock tyres but after trying another one it still not improved i had completed over 45000kms.That will be a problem while riding in wet and muddy conditions.Seat height is little high and will give problems for shorter riders bajaj should have taken into account that indians are average in height so they could have reduced the seat height.Service and maintenance are economical compared to other brands of same specs.It is a complete package and value for money it gives decent mileage of over 40kmpl which pretty good compared to other brands and even some 150cc bikes are giving only that much mileage.Its cornering abilities in ghat roads are amazing.It is a good package for this money and this review is entirely on my personal experiences.

  • Far better than Apache

    6 years ago


    Bhabani Sankar Pati

    My buying experience was nice. I've not imagined that it will come that great. The bike feels a bit more heavy but when you in and start riding the weight doesn't feel much. It is comfortable, agile, nimble, compact. It's turning radius will make a difference but you will get familiar of it. The power is endless. It gives you a nice mid range and top range. This is the most capable 200cc bike. The bike still looks like a demon to me.
    I've ridden Apache 2004v for a long time, but ns200 makes a lot more sense as compare to Apache. You only Can feel the difference between both these bikes when you ride both bikes for a long time. Apache gives a powerful low end as compared to ns but in case of refinement ns is far better than Apache.

  • The Best 200cc Naked Motorcycle

    5 years ago


    Shriharsha Bhat

    The NS200 , Bajaj's Second Successful Bike. Many buyers go to NS firstly, because of its price tag . And the bike is overall fit and finished . Front end is little bit and the ride quality is Good , I rode 2014 , 16, 18 models i noticed huge difference in updated models seating and handling. Overall performance is Awesome. I hope bajaj did some Quarter fairing works on it and it helps in Highway Rides.

  • Value for money

    6 years ago


    Prasunjit Das

    Its been more than 5 years i am riding my pulsar,cloaked approx +45000 kms. It looks stunning and performance is great. I would say it is value for money bike. Its a good commuter bike, good touring bike, good bike to stunt as well. And for 200cc bike giving mileage of 35 in city and 38 in highway is good number. Till 4th year it never broke in the middle of the road, not a single issue. But after 4th year my tank got rust from inside and the rust particles entered in the carburettor and my bike stopped in the middle of the road while coming from office. Now comes the main part, i called up service centre for bike pick up, but they don't do that. The mechanic only cleaned the carburettor and told me there is no other issue with the bike and i was happy. But same thing happened next day itself. I asked him what is causing the issue, he was unsure and told me to replace carburettor. After changing the carburettor my bike stopped running after 3 days and then again i have to take it to service centre. This time i talked to manager and he guided the mechanic to do some checks only to find that the tank is rusted from inside and there was no need to change the carburettor. After changing the petrol tank the issue was resolved.

  • Spectacular beast in 200C with more than satisfactory power

    6 years ago


    Ashish R

    I bought this bike for daily commute to my college which is at 10kms apart,
    I get a mileage of 25-30kmpl.
    if you don't care about mileage , you can use it for daily commute
    if mileage is priority factor , you can use it for occasional touring .
    I feel like a hero riding this bike .The only disadvantage is gear shift pattern from second to first while downshifting .
    ABS makes it way more better .
    A bike can tell your personality.
    many people say NS 200 is for squids .But I say it's best for honest alpha males , who burst their ass to succeed in life while leaving their comfort zones .
    Blindly , buy this bike and work hard on your life and make it your travelling companion
    Thank you for reading my review.

  • Ns 200 is not naked sport....It is next level sport..

    4 years ago


    Ajmal

    Let me first start with the thing that my height is 6 ft 2 inch so while riding i did not face much of back problem, but..Yes if someone is sitting behind you then he will keep asking you to stop every one or one and half hour.As ns is naked sport bike, it has been designed to look sporty and cool so you have to compromise a bit on comfort. What i felt if i apply the front disc brake then it automatically puts pressure on your thighs to hold your body back and after riding few kilometres it starts to pain.Another thing is that this bike has 6 gear box so if you are riding in city then you have to shift gears a lot and again your left portion between left knee and ankle starting to pain.After all this, let me end by saying i love this bike. I have this bike from the past 7 years. I give full marks in terms of mileage considering the 200cc engine coz it has triple spark technology. In city i get around 35 and on highway 40-42 n yes i ride above 100 so speed shouldn't be the case here.

  • 5 Yrs of 200ns ownership review(2012 model)

    7 years ago


    Vishnu

    I bought this as my second choice my 1st choice was to buy bullet due to its high maintenance i backed out from buying bullet.But i'm happy because it was mostly trouble free owning this bike apart from minor issues because i travel lot in alone to a long distance but it never let me down on my long trips only problem i faced is that loosening of chains frequently it is still unsolved i think that will be the case for most of the owners.Another improvement needed in seating department because it is very hard and cannot ride long stretch without taking a break.That must improve otherwise touring will be little difficult.Braking is not good i thought may be of bad quality stock tyres but after trying another one it still not improved i had completed over 45000kms.That will be a problem while riding in wet and muddy conditions.Seat height is little high and will give problems for shorter riders bajaj should have taken into account that indians are average in height so they could have reduced the seat height.Service and maintenance are economical compared to other brands of same specs.It is a complete package and value for money it gives decent mileage of over 40kmpl which pretty good compared to other brands and even some 150cc bikes are giving only that much mileage.Its cornering abilities in ghat roads are amazing.It is a good package for this money and this review is entirely on my personal experiences.

  • Far better than Apache

    6 years ago


    Bhabani Sankar Pati

    My buying experience was nice. I've not imagined that it will come that great. The bike feels a bit more heavy but when you in and start riding the weight doesn't feel much. It is comfortable, agile, nimble, compact. It's turning radius will make a difference but you will get familiar of it. The power is endless. It gives you a nice mid range and top range. This is the most capable 200cc bike. The bike still looks like a demon to me.
    I've ridden Apache 2004v for a long time, but ns200 makes a lot more sense as compare to Apache. You only Can feel the difference between both these bikes when you ride both bikes for a long time. Apache gives a powerful low end as compared to ns but in case of refinement ns is far better than Apache.

  • The Best 200cc Naked Motorcycle

    5 years ago


    Shriharsha Bhat

    The NS200 , Bajaj's Second Successful Bike. Many buyers go to NS firstly, because of its price tag . And the bike is overall fit and finished . Front end is little bit and the ride quality is Good , I rode 2014 , 16, 18 models i noticed huge difference in updated models seating and handling. Overall performance is Awesome. I hope bajaj did some Quarter fairing works on it and it helps in Highway Rides.

  • Value for money

    6 years ago


    Prasunjit Das

    Its been more than 5 years i am riding my pulsar,cloaked approx +45000 kms. It looks stunning and performance is great. I would say it is value for money bike. Its a good commuter bike, good touring bike, good bike to stunt as well. And for 200cc bike giving mileage of 35 in city and 38 in highway is good number. Till 4th year it never broke in the middle of the road, not a single issue. But after 4th year my tank got rust from inside and the rust particles entered in the carburettor and my bike stopped in the middle of the road while coming from office. Now comes the main part, i called up service centre for bike pick up, but they don't do that. The mechanic only cleaned the carburettor and told me there is no other issue with the bike and i was happy. But same thing happened next day itself. I asked him what is causing the issue, he was unsure and told me to replace carburettor. After changing the carburettor my bike stopped running after 3 days and then again i have to take it to service centre. This time i talked to manager and he guided the mechanic to do some checks only to find that the tank is rusted from inside and there was no need to change the carburettor. After changing the petrol tank the issue was resolved.

  • Spectacular beast in 200C with more than satisfactory power

    6 years ago


    Ashish R

    I bought this bike for daily commute to my college which is at 10kms apart,
    I get a mileage of 25-30kmpl.
    if you don't care about mileage , you can use it for daily commute
    if mileage is priority factor , you can use it for occasional touring .
    I feel like a hero riding this bike .The only disadvantage is gear shift pattern from second to first while downshifting .
    ABS makes it way more better .
    A bike can tell your personality.
    many people say NS 200 is for squids .But I say it's best for honest alpha males , who burst their ass to succeed in life while leaving their comfort zones .
    Blindly , buy this bike and work hard on your life and make it your travelling companion
    Thank you for reading my review.

  • Ns 200 is not naked sport....It is next level sport..

    4 years ago


    Ajmal

    Let me first start with the thing that my height is 6 ft 2 inch so while riding i did not face much of back problem, but..Yes if someone is sitting behind you then he will keep asking you to stop every one or one and half hour.As ns is naked sport bike, it has been designed to look sporty and cool so you have to compromise a bit on comfort. What i felt if i apply the front disc brake then it automatically puts pressure on your thighs to hold your body back and after riding few kilometres it starts to pain.Another thing is that this bike has 6 gear box so if you are riding in city then you have to shift gears a lot and again your left portion between left knee and ankle starting to pain.After all this, let me end by saying i love this bike. I have this bike from the past 7 years. I give full marks in terms of mileage considering the 200cc engine coz it has triple spark technology. In city i get around 35 and on highway 40-42 n yes i ride above 100 so speed shouldn't be the case here.
