Bajaj continues to update its Pulsar line-up, and the latest one to see feature additions is the Pulsar NS200. While we had previously spotted the NS200 and the N250 with a new instrument cluster and WP USD front fork, the bike that has now reached dealerships doesn’t seem to have the latter feature.
- Has a Quickshifter, 4 Ride Modes, Traction control, TFT instrument cluster
- Now gets Radial tyres, Adjustable levers and USB Type-C charging
- A New Nardo Grey colour, price expected to increase from current Rs 1.48 lakh
Bajaj Pulsar NS200: what’s new?
The 200cc engine now produces 25.5hp, 1hp bump
Having offered a bidirectional quickshifter, traction control and riding modes on the Pulsar NS400Z, Bajaj has now trickled these features down to the Pulsar NS200 as well. While the 37mm USD fork is carried over from before, radial tyres are a new addition to the motorcycle, though it remains unclear whether the bike features radial tyres at both ends or only the rear, there has been no official communication from the brand, hence the ambiguity.
There is also a slight bump in power as well, from 24.5hp of the current model to 25.5hp on the latest version. The 5-inch TFT instrument cluster with Google Maps mirroring, first introduced on the N160 SS, has also made its way here. Other listed features include USB Type-C charging, a hazard switch, a panic brake alert, and adjustable levers, though it remains unclear if the adjustability applies to both the clutch and brake levers.
For now, the announcement remains confined to the dealership level. The current USD-fork equipped Pulsar NS 200 is priced at Rs 1.48 lakh, which is on par with its chief rival, the TVS Apache RTR 200 4V (Rs 1.48 lakh to 1.49 lakh). However, given the additional features on the upcoming model, we can expect a price bump when Bajaj officially reveals it.
