From Hyderabad :

And on one fine day I found myself in Hyderabad,AP!It was not as if I was tele-transported from Mysore,but I was in firm belief that they would post me in Pune, which of course did not happen.
Last post on this blog was in last year October, and in the meantime nothing much has happened except that I completed (successfully) treacherous training and my relocation to HYD as they say.My bike is still lying idle in Ahmednagar barring some short rides by my dad,and he is taking good care of the baby.Thanks a ton,dad!
I plan to bring the bike here shortly as this being a very vast city and me being a lazy bum :).
By the way all was not perfect with my P200 one very odd incident happened.Everything was going OK when one day all of sudden all the bulbs in front fairing (main+2 pilot lamps) went kaput.At first dad suspected wiring fault and took the bike to local Bajaj showroom.There it came to light that the wiring was perfectly OK , the lamps were burnt.I still don't know how it happened, nor did the bajaj people knew.
As there is no ProBiking there in my town, dad fitted normal bulbs.
This doesn't make big difference, in fact yellow beam feels more powerful according to some people.But if you ask me, I would definitely like to see original bluish lights,and will fit them ASAP.Other than this there have been no expenses or anything till now.
Ohh, and yes,this is for readers from HYD, does anyone know where can I get K&N air filter here? I am very curious to see what difference does it make actually.I remember every biking forum flowing with K&N queries and such.
This brings me to end of first post from Hyderabad.I don't usually like posts without any pictures in it and neither do many people out there,So here is one nice pic,taken by my dear friend and an avid biker,Tushar aka Sunny.
Thank You!
Keep riding with appropriate gear!

  1. HI, good posts. How does 200 compare with karizma. Is karizma still a leader or 200 is catching up fast? I know in terms of sales 200 must surpass karizma soon. But in terms of ride quality, which one do you think scores better. I am curious to know this. Thanks in advance.

  2. performance wise 200 and zma are mighty close to each other.
    A lot depends upon rider.
    200 feels a bit faster than zma and is quicker to 60kmph.I won't comment on top end of both bikes, I have not tested either of the bikes for top speed.126-128kmph on both the bikes is what I would bet.
    sales wise Bajaj premium bikes (all models of pulsar) are way higher than others, its hard to find out how much a particular model fared.
    In terms of ride quality , I would rate zma more on higher grounds than 200.
    Its bit softer and plusher than 200.although its minute difference.
