pulsar 200CC

Pros
1. The riding position itself is very sporty.
2. The handle bar is lower than P180.
3. The foot pegs are kicked back.
4. The acceleration is really amazing, definitely a ZMA beater in terms of performance.
5. The vibes are lower than p180.
6. Exhaust note is better.
7. Cranking is smooth.
8. Low maintenance battery. Water level needs to be checked once in the year.
9. Spit seat is cool and does give some, actually very little, support. But the pillion seat needs to be unlocked from the battery compartment. But pillion will be very much comfortable.
10. Paint quality is really good and will last long.
11. The Headlight bulb and the pilot lamps are white.
12. The crash guard or the leg guard is smaller in height. It being black in color is not at all an eyesore. Though small but it will surely help if Bike falls.
13. Tubeless tires 90/90 at front 120/80 at back
14. Thick tank pad.
15. Huge air filter box. K&N should be an easy fit.
16. Bigger 260mm front disc
17. Embossed name and logo, similar to old karizma but not plastic, just thick sticker.
18. No chain cover.
19. No ugly footrest for saree wearing ladies.
20. Silencer is not black in color, silver color compliments the new design.
21. Better quality switches. similar to UG3, much better than the old ones.

Cons
1. The headlight and pilot lamps are not on battery. They get their juice from the alternator.
2. Halonix bulb and that to only 35/35 W. sucks
3. No kick. (arguable)
4. Horns suck big time. Very low dB levels. Feels puny when compared to my hella twins.
5. Grab rails are useless. I really scared the sales person accompanying him while dodging at high speed. What would happen while performing a wheelie.
6. Engine kill switch is reverse.
