[Resolved]  Baja Pulsar 150cc DTSi — silencer

I strongly agree with the previous posts(Complaints on Silencer). BAJAJ itself is the worst product manufacturer of Vehicles. In March 2007 i was looking for a change of my bike (Splendour) and opted Pulsar 150CC as there were no good bikes(CBZ Extreme was a failure) in the range. Within 3 months of purchase the engine coil got burnt and it stopped in the mid of the road. I towed(utmost difficulty) it to nearby showroom and they told me that this is not covered under warranty so i had to pay them 1800/- to drive my bike again. I cursed myself for choosing Pulsar.

Later slowly rust started to develop over the Silencer within 8months of the purchase. I took the vehicle to the showroom where i purchased the vehicle and he told me that he will be sending the documents to the Company and will get new silencer as a replacement within 10days. I gave the service booklet to him and waited for 3months to get an update. Whenever i used to go to him he used to say it is still in process.

Finally i went to the Company Branch office locally and there i showed him all the documents. He was not even bothered to answer me rather simply told warranty is for 11months and it is almost 11months 2days so he cannot help me.

I dont understand whom to blame - i conclude that it was my mistake to purchase such a worst product from such a worst company.

I strongly advised all my friends and relatives not to buy any Bajaj products and i will continue to tell anyone i encounter of the Worst Company in the world - BAJAJ

I have a Pulsar 150CC - 11 months old. There is lot of rust formed on the silencer. I feel the silencer sound was completely changed. Its very bad about Bajaj. I have seen many bajaj bikes on road, maximum vehicles with the black silencer is having rust. Is it any design failure???????? The silencer is very expensive it seems (3k). I really feel bad about Bajaj!!!.

I purchased Bajaj Pulsar 150cc bike before two years..Silencer has rusted and got a big puncture.
Finally i have to replace it. two years life for a silencer is very low. Manufacturer has to improve the quality.

Idoitic technology regarding sliencer floks. Check out the sales of pulser it has came down rapidly

ya seriusly, ihave bajaj 150 dtsi before digital version. i think bajaj vehicle is fuqall i change my bike silencer 2 times becouse of rust in 3 year

I agree with every1...
It is a design manufacture and low quality materials used in the manufacture of bajaj's silencer..
my 180 pulsar again black silencer broke into two pieces due to rust...
It has made me wonder if at all they put in work in designing and in using good materials in the silencer.

I also agree with the same, I also oen Pulsar 150 CC, Years old. I have the same problem with silencer. This is really pathetic situation. I beleive the company should own the responsibility and replace the silencers. This will help to hold the goodwill of Bajaj Company and customers will be satisfied by the concern from company.

Expecting a positive response.

Thanks & Regards,

I have a Bajai Discover 112CC - 2 Years old. There is lot of rust formed on the silencer. I feel the silencer sound was completely changed. Its very bad about Bajaj. I have seen many bajaj bikes on road, maximum vehicles with the Silver Silencer is having rust. why this problem found?????. I think Bajaj Silencer division is very pooooooor department!!!

my bajaj pulsur 150cc is about 3 years old and i have seen that the syilencer is taking corosion from down side and i sems that i have to repalace my syilencer

sir i want to buy a new pulsar siliencer ...how much price sir

pulsor 150cc dtsi silensor is really a bed quality and flaws with tecnical workmenship. in tis case even after taking utmost care it gets corrossion within a year from inside. so in such case company should give free replacement with improved quality and workmenship so as to keep the name in the market.

Yes... This is a real problem. My 2006 Bajaj Pulser DTSi Silencer started getting corroded a year back. Think the material at the rear end is not strong enough to handle the high temperature exhaust pulses and with time starts to break apart. Today I went to get it replaced but to my surprise the service guy refused to give any assurance that the new one will not break. I decided to get the old one weilded. And now I join the ranks of the bykers with Bajaj Pulser DTSi 150 riding such a beauty with a ugly patched silencer. Imagine your beautiful gf with a patched ugly ... . Bajaj do something...

Silencer of my 2 years old Pulsar 180 is full of holes. It will break in two pieces anytime.

But I will replace only when it fully breaks because I know the new one I am going to buy from Bajaj surely will have the same quality.

Buying a Bajaj bike was the biggest mistake of my life.
Btw, does Bajaj deserve to be compared with Nokia ??? :)

Before buying a Pulsar 180, I had a Yamaha Rx100 for so many years. It shined like new and there was no complaints and the silencer looked like new. I loved it. I sold when I was told that I will get a better mileage with Pulsar.

Here i would like to putforth a solution to bajaj auto. From last one month if we all are aware what TOYOTA, HONDA and now MARUTI SUZUKI is doing. These company are recalling all the respective cars which were having major defects in there cars fuel pump. Now i just want to know why dont Bajaj take the responsibility and recalls all the bikes which are having problem like silencer rusting. As the people those have changed it, should be refunded.

I also want bajaj auto to inspect there authorised service station. As my bikes spark plug was not changed due to mistake done during servicing at GEMS service center at market yard, pune. This has costed me 2340 Rs, because the spark plug broke just after 2 days of servicing and my bikes engine complete cylinder was made to be changed after that. As my bike crossed 15000 km mark, my question is why it was not changed. I resquest consumer forum to take this issue forward to some of the government body, who can take action against these issues.

I hope it is not a case that bajaj auto is owned by one of the biggest politician. So wahtever we are putting forward will not go in vain.

Please Bajaj Auto do something, please do not test our patience. If the same continues then one day will come, when there will be a revolt. and then Bajaj will be doomed...

All the comments given above are 100% right. I bot a pulsar 150cc in 2007 and the silencer started rusting in 8th month. It continued to rust more and more and finally i went to dealer and told him abt this. Even but the silencer had 20000kms or 2years warrantly the dealer did not give me the replacement. Now that chrome silencer has stopped manufacturing. I had to finally buy a new now which is a black silencer and i donno how this goes...
Silencers are worst about bajaj...

Looks like the end part of the silencer has been welded to the front part and it's at this joint that the rust seems to form. And it's not like I haven't taken care of my bike. But you can't keep your bike weather proof all the time. You are bound to drive the bike in rain at some point in time. But that shouldn't lead to such rusting.

Even I faced the same problem with my PULSAR 150CC DTSI... Very poor performace in terms of durability... Even after so many complains BAJAJ is not bother to look into this matter seriously... There are also other maintance problem with this bike... When I compare this BIKE with HONDA UNICORN what I can say is BAJAJ has still Long way to go !!! They are good only for Auto Riksha...

Hi guys...

i own Pulsar DTS-I 2005 end model...

Above comments are 200% True...

I love Pulsar and Chrome silencer is one and the major attraction of the bike.. i love it...

But the quality was worst...they definitely form rust in one or two years...

i observed that simple bikes like HH cd-100, splendor, cbz etc even though they completed 10 years or so there will be no silencer issues irrespective of maintainence.. i can damn bet for it with ANY ONE...

The mian aim of Bajaj is it always want to steal money from its customers without noticing that they were being robbed...

Not only Pulsar but also discover, ct100 etc will have the same issues... and service is another worst thing...

The material used for making the silencer is of very very very low in quality but it was sold at higher cost making ALL OF ITS CUSTOMERS THE BIG FOOLS...

One can think that silencer may form rust due to improper maintainence.. But it was a big mistake...

Simply compare a old HH cd100 silencer going on road with our new corrupted pulsar silencer...

The whole Bajaj taem cant answer to my question.. its shame on their part...

A Human being(we) who eats food will not do this type of cheating to the fellow beings...

I THINK BAJAJ PEOPLE EATS ... I MAEN IT...

BAJAJ---LEGEND ONCE UPON (CHETAK)...

NOW...

BAJAJ... A REAL HEADACHE TO THE BIKE LOVERZ...

SO GUYS I[censored] AGREE WITH ME... U CAN MAIL ME...

yes I agree with others I am having pulsar 2hich is 3 yrs old and half of silencer had fallen whiledriving. Everyone who owns the pulsar should put a case aginst the Bajaj complany to replace it free of cost. ALl old model pulsar bikes are waste, new pulsar silencers they have manufactured with black coating this one is good .Even old Discover is facing this problem. I got a second hand silnecer from an Auto shop
