Sound familar.... there is a case, we encounter recently. The problem is exactly like yours.

 

Problem of that case is :

 

Ignition cable along the main wire is broken. Sometime there is electric current to the spark coil, sometime no, that cause the sudden rev of engine. Because the CDI cease electric current to the engine.

The owner of that bike faces these problem after overhaul the 4th and 5th gear, than by the next day. he have problem starting the bike.

 

Solution:

 

We manage to temp. fix the cable. the Owner ride to UM the next day and chose to replace the whole wiring of the bike rather than fixing it...

 

Bro its me... I am the OWNER who rode to UM... Once again tks for coming down to help me dat nite...

that used to happen to me when i first started riding my pulsar. later googled to find it was a false neutral.

 

technically, between all gears, the lower gear will have to disengage then engage the higher gear, e.g. come out of gear 4 to no contact then to gear 5. has to be that way, cuz can't be in 2 gears at the same time.

 

apparently the point when it's out of one gear and not in the next, it's a false neutral, not to be confused with 1-neutral-2.

 

happened to me because i wasn't kicking hard enough to gear 5, so 5th gear never engage properly, after awhile, will suddenly pop into false neutral. engine will rev high high into redline and bike will have no power. then have to clutch in, kick HARD up. always up, never down. n continue throttling.

 

why you don't kick down is because your wheel speed might be too high for the lower gear. e.g. if you're in 5th gear going at 90kmph, and it goes false neutral, your engine RPM high high, you close throttle, and it goes down to 4-5k then you kick down. there's going to be severe engine braking, 4th gear and 90kmph doesn't go too well. chance of locking your rear tyre from engine braking.

 

dunno if yours is the same? this is just my personal experience la. !@*#ing scary when it happens. the engine will "wwhhhheeeeeeeeeee!!!" very quickly into redline.

 

I've gotten into a habit of nudging the gear shift upwards when i'm in 5th gear already, just to make sure that the gear cog is seated properly.

 

Yoz bro, thanks for e info.. I guess ur situation almost similar to mine.. I can't say for sure I really kick hard into 5th gear but still encounter the similar thing..

 

Anyway will try to kick even harder from now onwards.. But also have to go down UM for a check as well, since I'm still covered under the 1 mth overhaul warranty..

all i can do is speculate, but you mentioned your 4th and 5th gears were overhauled? Then might be a case of the new machine parts not really meshing well yet, might take awhile before they wear into one another's patterns and fit together perfectly. Maybe.

 

cuz i remember last time cars when running in, the transmission fluid have freaking alota metal.

 

It bears some thought though, that the 4th n 5th had to be replaced. Any idea why and what those 2 gears looked like? Wonder if it was previous owner also experienced alota 4-5 problems which eventually destroyed the gears.

 

Just curious, what oil you using?

Smile! Tomorrow will be worse.

i called a tow truck to tow my bike 2 d nearest workshop. but seeing as its 1am in d morning, ders no bikeshop open. so he towed my bike back 2 his home with me along. i slept at his hse dat night. d next morning, we went 2 d bike shop 2 add d chain. d chain dat snapped was a DID chain which i changed almost 2 months ago. d tow trucker was puzzled as 2 how d chain snapped easily. i was puzzled 2. i did spray wax on d chain often. in d end end up wif a new chain. oh ya, b4 dis incident occured, dat afternn my bike broke down along Nilai highway due 2 leaked s plug cable. an indian guy came 2 help me fix it. in abt 20 mins time my bike can start n i rode slowly 2 nilai 2 find a bike shop 2 replace my 2 s plugs cos its been worn out. so yeah, ive got 2 bitter incidents during d trip. but i was sure as hell an experince. i learned d lesson d hardway. always bring spare things n equipment wen going on a long trip.

 

Bro.... 1st thing 1st.... Glad that u r safe and sound. :thumb:

 

2nd thing.... THAT day at Pemas Jaya... I ready told u ur chain got problem.... and it been confirm by the workshop mech... YET u chose to ride up north without FIXING the problem. U r lucky tat u manage to solve this problem without any MAJOR incident that might happen.... Next time... FOR GOD SAKE... PLEASE FIX ANY PROBLEM BEFORE GOING NORTH !!!:bouncefire:

Yo!! back from a solo 3 day road trip to Kajang, Kuala Lumpur, then up to Sungai Buloh,,Selangor to visit my relatives. It was a hell of a ride. Met both bitter n sweet experiences. Met a few Riders along d way n back. Like the Ducati gangs n 2 African Wtin riders.. on d way back, my chain snapped n I had 2 stop at d shoulder at night along Simpan renggam highway.. A forum rider was going home as well. I waved to him for help. He did stop by the shoulder and help me out a bit THANKS BRO!! whoever u are!!. He was riding a class 2 bike., cant remember Well… I did manage 2 arrive safely home. Will post the pics later. total distance i covered: approx 800km!!!

 

bruder bruder.. we have the same fate!!!! my chain snap on Saturday morning as i was on the way to send my cat to a vet. thank God it snapped when i jus about to enter PIE. so now he's all alone there.. hee.. yday i drove to JB as usual top up my fuel and bought chain and sprocket. so i guess either tomorrow or wednesday take leave lor, go to UM and installed a new one.. as for me.. the last time i change my chain was 30k ago.. hee..

My 1st tank of petrol ... 250 kms and still showing full bars??

 

not sure how accurate ur bar, but my meter will only drop when it's less than half tank.

Accident can happen anytime, anywhere.

However ask yourself, do you want to fall at 120km/h or 60km/h?

very informative on the false neutral thing, when i started on this bike, i kick gear slowly, but as i get used to it, i kick very fast, i think that's y i get more frequent false neutral. but will it spoilt the gear/engine in long run?

This happen to me once a while when I change from 4 to 5 gear and didn't kick hard enough.

Solution is just clutch-in and kick up to 5 gear again. You will get used to it the second or the third time it happen. :thumb:

wa with the craze with P200. Would'nt that be bad news for p180 rider?

 

no, 200 comes with some feature not in 180, some good, some bad...

one of the bad i dont like about 200 is no kick start.

to be honest, for 3 years plus me ride p180, really not even once i use kick start.. hee...

 

but now have volt meter, can look see look see before i ride my bike.

 

so to be if i get 'my' p200-Fi, its won't be a lost without a kick start. its good to have, but its not a must to get.
