Eagerly anticipated, as are all new Pulsar bikes from Bajaj, the ‘junior-supersports’ class RS200 has just been launched in India. The RS in the bike's moniker stands for Race Sport. Bookings for the RS200 have begun, and deliveries will commence soon. As proudly conveyed to us by Bajaj Motorcycle Business President Eric Vas, the company has spent a lot of time working behind the scenes, to perfect the RS200; testing and ironing out all possible problem areas before bringing the new-generation Pulsar into our showrooms, with a view to provide riders with a reliable motorcycle from the word go.
Sharp-nosed and aggressive, the Pulsar RS200 gets twin projector headlights staring out in front, with LED pilot lamps. The latest Bajaj comes equipped with a see-through visor, deflecting wind away from riders. Angular looking and flamboyant, the RS200 shouts out sporty intent, with clip-on handlebars offered as standard. A sporty, compact cockpit is in place on the RS200, with comprehensive, well laid out instruments and Bajaj-typical switches on offer.
There’s smartly contoured split seats, and a stubby, cropped exhaust. As on most Pulsars, the RS200's tail-light is LED powered, and there’s plenty of lightweight, alloy parts to keep the weight of the sporty RS200 in check.
