The Pulsar 220F, one of the longest-surviving models from the original Pulsar lineup, has now received an update. Bajaj has officially launched the updated Pulsar 220F in India, with prices starting at Rs 1.28 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi). The key highlight of this update is the addition of dual-channel ABS, alongside minor cosmetic changes.
1. Bajaj Pulsar 220f now gets dual-channel ABS
2. The updated model features new graphics and fresh colour options
3. It remains mechanically unchanged
Updated Bajaj Pulsar 220F: What's new?
It continues to get an LCD dash that is Bluetooth enabled
The Pulsar 220F has been on sale since 2007 and has largely remained unchanged since its launch, receiving only incremental and emission-related updates over the years. With this latest update, the 220F now gets refreshed graphics, two new colour options — black with soft gold accents and orange with a black base and green hues — and, most importantly, dual-channel ABS.
The motorcycle has also been spotted with Eurogrip ATT 1150 tyres, although some units continue to run MRF rubber, suggesting tyre fitment may vary based on availability. The Pulsar 220F continues to feature the same Bluetooth-enabled LCD instrument cluster found on other Pulsar models currently on sale, though it still misses out on a gear-position indicator.
The addition of dual-channel ABS is a significant safety upgrade and also makes the Pulsar 220F one of the most affordable Pulsar models to offer this feature.
Mechanically, the Pulsar 220F remains unchanged. Power continues to come from the familiar 220cc air/oil-cooled engine producing 20.4hp and 18.5Nm, paired with a 5-speed gearbox. Despite its age, the Pulsar 220F has remained one of Bajaj’s highest-selling Pulsar models since its introduction, and this update should help extend its lifecycle further.
The updated Bajaj Pulsar 220F has been priced at Rs 1.28 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi). With the model now officially launched, interested buyers can contact their nearest Bajaj dealership for details and availability.
