Hi I ride a pulsar 150 KS classic. The bike was fine until saturday morning. As i had to go to a friends place I rode the bike in the afternoon. There were some problems
1. At high RPM over 3k the bike was running fine 2. As I used to come to lower RPM either due to traffic or slow down the bike used to sputter and die 3. Initially i thought that there is some problem of dust / mud in carb or water in petrol tank 4. When the bike used to die the RPM meter used to increase or fluctuate but the bike would not have any power and it simply used to shut down, 2-3 times the bike misfired and I could hear a huge sound from the silencer as if something is blasting. 5. Took it to a mechanic where the bike stopped who said that its an electrical problem and said we need to replace coil (the one on the LHS bottom of the bike below the engine. 6. After replacing the coil the same problem was observed by the mechanic so he said its not an electrical problem but something else 7. He cleaned the carb , air filter et all and then said that there is a case of misfiring from the bike 8. He opened the timing chain and said that its not set properly and did something to set it by removing the tank and opening the topmost part where the timing chain is. 9. He took a test-ride and claimed its fine now 10. I took a small test-ride and found it fine, bike was not sputtering and dying (the old phenomena observed earlier) 11. Took the bike out of the mechanics shop and rode about 5-6 km to find the same problem occurring (bike didnt stop but it used to simply stop moving in any gear but the engine was still running) 12. Found that the bike is not actually performing properly too, and the power generated at particular RPM feels way below now also the sputtering and stopping problem is still present. Any comments from experts? Will take it to my service guy tommorrow to see what is actually happening and get it rectified. Regards, Jayaram [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
