I would like to defer on the opinions of fellow forumers though... I've been riding on the Pulsar 180 with a very comfortable speed of 90~100km/h.

 

Maybe it's one's perception to judge for. Yeap, besides Sparkz is tuned and setup to challenge the 2-strokers underbone of today, and it infact is one of the fastest 2B 4-stroke bikes. It's light, remember? :)

i agree that Sparkz is faster than Bajaj.. and yes the reason cos its much lighter. small tank, infact almost most things are small and light. it is built to be as light as possible to safe fuel as much as possible.

 

compare the tank capacity...

 

Sparkz 4litre

Bajaj 18 litre...

 

so much weight different right. not only that the body size and weight its

so much different to...

 

And Sparkz is built for a stop-and-go bike.. as in like lotsa traffic stop

but Bajaj Pulsar is more like a cruise bike.

 

if u ride, let say, with a pillion and ride at 90km/h.. the pillion feel much comfortable riding on pulsar than Sparkz.. this is not my judgement, but my pillions. those pillions who's on both bikes.

:giddy: really so jialat?? even my spark135 can go up to 110km/h comfortably on expressway leh.

 

this one 4stroke 180cc cannot??

Hey pal, diff bikes got diff benefits. Like urs is light and our Bajaj is heavy. for my Years of riding, a heavier bike is more stable then a light at High Speed.

 

For ur Experience, ur spark135 may or can travel comfortably at wat u feel. But to me, i don feel so cause ur Spark is too light.

 

My 2 cents.

 

No offend :cheeky:

 

P/s: i did travel 100km/hr on Expressway no problem but that the speed for class 2 bikes is only 90. Same as urs. :cheeky:

The 1st no. is the section width. This refers to the width of the tyre (in mm) from sidewall to sidewall when it's unstressed and you're looking at it head on (or top-down).

 

The 2nd no. is the aspect ratio. This refers to the ratio of the height of the tyre sidewall (section height) expressed as a percentage of the width.

 

So in the case of a 110/80 tyre:

- width of tyre from sidewall to sidewall is 110mm

- height of the tyre sidewall is 80% of 110mm = 88mm.

 

U may have noticed that ur front tyre is smaller than ur rear tyre. Hence, the different size nos. I assume this is due to the different functions of the tyres - front for steering/control, rear for forward drive.

 

More knowledgeable bikers, pls correct me if I'm wrong.

Hi guys, I'm new to this forum. Am interested in buying a Pulsar. Actually, I went to Sing Motor Hung ( or Seng Motor Hung... couldn't really remember...) at Bukit Merah Lane 1 this afternoon and saw the Ver 3 that I supposed you guys were talking about. I saw 4 colours(red, black, silver and blue). Am very tempted to buy the Silver one. Does anyone had any good/bad experiences with this shop? Any warrenty for new bikes or warrenty is only provided if you buy from Universal? Thanx in advance for the advice.

Posted

Universal have quite a few authorised dealers to distribute Bajaj bikes. As long as the bikes are distributed by them I am sure they will honour their warranty. Just confirm with the bike shop you buy from. By the way, sole Bajaj showroom and service centre are just round the corner. Hope this help.

If I were u, I'd just buy from Universal Motors for peace of mind .....

 

But that's just me. What u do with ur money is up to u .....
