Bajaj Pulsar RS200: What's changed?
Well, not a lot. This update to the Bajaj Pulsar RS200 seems to be a minor one, with just a few new features and seemingly no mechanical changes. The big visual difference is the new tail-lamp design, which now uses two separate pods on each side. Each pod combines the indicator and tail-lamp into a single unit, similar to those found on some BMW and Harley-Davidson models.
The other change is the new colour LCD, which seems to be lifted off the Pulsar NS400Z. This dash is capable of being connected to your smartphone for things like call and notification alerts, as well as turn-by-turn navigation. And since the NS400Z and smaller Pulsar models have started coming with riding modes, we could see the same on the updated RS200.
Expect new colours to be bundled in with this update and the rest of the bike to be more or less the same mechanically. The Pulsar RS200 has been on sale in its current avatar for nearly a decade, with the only changes being compliance with stricter emission norms and the introduction of new colours. Despite this, it continues to have a cult following and registers respectable sales numbers every month. The current Pulsar RS200 is listed at Rs 1.74 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi), and we could see a small upward increment in price when this facelifted bike launches.
