Need specs of Pulsar alloy wheels. - Team-BHP

BIKeINSTEIN · 4th July 2008, 03:24

If anyone has correct information on the specs/sizes of the 17" alloy wheels on the new Pulsars, then please post them here.
I couldn't find the same for a P200 in the owner's manual.

Want info on P150, P180, P200 and P220.

A friend mentioned the P180 and P200's alloy wheels are of a better make than the ones on the P150. (maybe wider too)
(His wheels got damaged in a freak accident but thankfully he is absolutely fine.)
He will be getting new wheels for his P150 soon and would love to get better ones instead.

So are the P200's wheels (especially rear) a direct fit on the P150?

Anyone who has done similar stuff or has any related information, please post your valuable comments and oblige.

Yes P200 wheel is wider.
You can fit it on the P150.

Guys could you please share the prices for the same.

rider60 · 4th July 2008, 15:23

well the P200 has the alloys of better make than the p150/p180 and when it comes to size its definitely bigger, i dont have the tech specs but then they do put in 120mm side tyre on it right? so its bigger.

you can surely fit the rear alloy of p200 on the p150/p180 many here have done that its kind of direct fit.

BIKeINSTEIN · 4th July 2008, 17:07

Thank you arpandiv and rider60.

I hope direct fit on the exiisting P150 rear axle kit- no need for modded spacers or some other stuff?
Or will i need to buy the P200 rear wheel axle kit/setup too?

Do check also on the bike's height if it needs to be raised from the rear shockers in order to get a p200's tyre. else the tyre might touch the upper body of the bike in bumps.

there wont be any necessity for any mods its a direct fit! at most you might have to get p200's bearings thats all they will roughly around 300 for the rear thats all.

@noidaboy the stock p150's tyre the 100/90-17 very much on this alloy so we dont need to worry about that part unless he plans to upgrade!

and on the prices part i am not too sure but it should be approximately 5000 bucks or less not more! i am guessing it based on the karizma's price and its any day less as its a bajaj so good luck with that!

arpandiv · 4th July 2008, 19:51

it will be less than 3K :P

BIKeINSTEIN · 4th July 2008, 22:27

Ya- Bajaj rates are very low- maybe due to the appalling quality.

Just few days back i was chilling out with a few close pals at a friend's garage when i spotted some guy's year old but messed up P180DTSi engine being worked upon.
Almost fell off my chair when i learnt the block+piston+rings cost just Rs.1600/-.
I don't think i can get a single set of piston rings for my Shogun for that much now. (used to be 1K odd earlier).

No one has the width sizes in inches/mm as we used to get with older bikes? :(

If I recall, the mag wheels of P150 and P180 are of the same make(Some chinese brand) save the colour(P150- silver; P180-black) but on the other hand the mags of P200 and 220 are manufactured by Enkei. I think they have wider lip than the P 150 ones to accomodate the tubeless tyres. Your friend MAY have to change the wheel bearings.

Hey,
I don't think one should use the stock 100/90x17 tube type tyre on a P200 rear wheel as i feel it's motsly wider.
Shifting to P200 rear wheel may need shifting to the 120/80 tubeless tyre too.
What do you guys have to say on this?

Still waiting for someone to post the actual widths of the various wheels. :(

arpandiv · 8th July 2008, 20:20

Yes shift to 120/80 you will get to go tubeless !
i am sorry i have no idea about width. rest be assured they can be fitted on the 150.
