Bajaj Motorcycles has updated six of its bikes as a part of their 2017 line-up. The six bikes in question are the Pulsar 130, Pulsar 150, Pulsar 180, Pulsar 200F, Pulsar RS200 and the Pulsar NS200.
While the five bikes were being sold in 2016, the Pulsar NS200 was relaunched, to replace the low-selling Pulsar AS200. The company has taken the Pulsar AS150 off the shelves as well due to the poor sales. All the six bikes are BS-IV as well as automatic headlamp on (AHO) compliant. Other than these updates, all six bikes have got some additions, mostly cosmetic.
The Pulsar 135 gets revised graphics, bigger windscreen, single seat, round grab rail and heel shifter. Most of the changes have been done to go with its commuter repositioning.
Other than few cosmetic changes, the Pulsar 150 gets some mechanical changes too. This bike now produces 1bhp less power and 1Nm more torque. The bore and the stroke of the engine have been reworked to improve the bottom and mid range. The NVH has been played around too. Other than this, there is new graphics and decals.
The Pulsar 180 now gets rear disc brake. Other than that, it gets new paint schemes, decals and carbon fibre accents around the instrument cluster, just like the other Pulsars, except the Pulsar NS200. The relaunched Pulsar NS200 gets a new belly pan to give it a sportier look, two colour options with matching decals. Bajaj says they have worked on the exhaust too to generate more bass. The flagship Pulsar – the RS200 – gets new paint job too.
But this time, the Pune-based manufacturer wanted to tone down the overall design, due to which a very sobered colour combinations were used. The RS200 is now available in blue and grey.
