I wish Bajaj would come up with a Pulsar X250 Adventure Touring bike, with a 4-valve DOHC, 250cc engine, a six speed gearbox, a 19 inch front wheel, seat hieght of 825mm, ground clearance of 200mm, wheelbase of 1400mm, tank capacity of 15 litres, kerb weight around 170 kgs and priced around 2 lac 20 thousand rupees on-road.
Am a Bajaj RS owner for 7 years straight now(upgraded to a BS7 one last year November) and I got little beef with Bajaj. They have been constantly upgrading NS but the RS only had dual channel ABS and less teethed sprocket and flex fueling system upgrades and ever since the Dominar launched and they teased a SS400 concept we have been rightfully waiting for a true RS200 successor. In my honest opinion Bajaj didn't skimped on money on tech for the OG RS when it was launched e.g. ByBre braking system (more capable than today's most latest braking systems on Ninja300 and KTMs) and spec developed tyre by MRF at the time (around 2013 i.e. >10 years ago now that is wild) specially for RS with a different and more focused compound. Stock tyres on a RS even today give more confidence than most bikes I've ridden on stock tyres. Great review though Sarge, keep the rubber side down and throttle it out!
We should understand that this bike is a sports commuter bike . Which focuses more on being an ideal commuter by giving us a comfortable and bump free ride with a little bit of sports characteristics for the office going people so that they can have some fun in their boring 9-5 life because they're the ones who can't make time for dedicated track riding or long road trips .
I am a beginner. Should I get a n160 over apache rtr160. Is the pillion seat comfortable for women or should i go for apache. Can you please suggest me the better bike
This takes me back almost 19 years , i had just bought the pulsar 180 full black edition from a dealership in chakan , amazing bike , nice to see the modern avatar of it. Though i don't particularly like the styling- they have taken elmennts from the yamaha MT series
change in handlebar with more straight one and removing that dabba behind the display to move the console a bit closer to the handle bar would do wonders designwise
Thank you so much sir.... If you remember, one year ago I earnestly requested you to review the Puslar 250.... Here dreams comes true.... Thank you sir... Love from Kolkata....
I usually don't comment but this channel needs more recognition, this is how a review should be done, practically pushed to the limits instead of just reading the specs. off the chart.
This segment of displacement is getting more and more interesting and for a good. Also make me wonder your playlist is still missing Karizma Xmr. Intersting to see a comparison of everything in 200 to 250 cc segment.
I Think The Traction Control and the OffRoad AbS Mode make sense on this bike because PULSARS have been thoroughly Riden IN THE REMORTEST Mountanious Terrains of NEPAL, Young Riders can fully utilize its added Features.
Personally I feel that the suspension tuning is done to offer a comfortable ride quality on the roads. Indian roads are not always that great where u can take ur bike out on cornering and checking its capabilities. A person like me would anyday perefer the superior ride quality on the new n250 along with its refined engine than the ns200. Comfy smooth ride>>>cornering. Anyway, the review is always on point sarge, love it❤
Mujhe new bike leni h ns200 new model jo aaya hai vhi le rha tha but jbse n250 ka new updates aaye h confused ho gya hu Please suggested which one better ns200 ya n250
Is this bike suitable for weekend long rides to hill stations? Could you suggest a bike which comes under the 3 lakh rupee price bracket which is good enough for weekend touring , daily city use as i am a college student, and a bike having a service bill under 5k if properly maintained
I am thinking which one to buy between N160 and N250. Based on the ride videos, I liked the initial pickup from N250 and wanted to go for that but concerned about the vibrations and cornering abilities as per your review. I ride mainly in the city and may be an occasional 50-100 kms of highway ride. Please suggest which one would be better amongst the two?
After removing the kick rods, how one can survive with that after 3 years during cold winters or when the bike wasn't used for 4 weeks? Is the fuel injection that much reliable?
I have the 1st gen n250 and have crossed 10k Km. Can I switch the tires to the ones used here from bajaj service center. I always felt that the 1st gen needs wider and thicker tires
They marketed their Infinity display speedometer but ended up giving it fully digital. Its looks so cool having a part digital and analogue cluster, this is only upgrade that they shouldn't have given !
Should i get this over my cbr 250r 2014 or i should go a segment higher ? My cbr is in really good condition but on service part it costs higher 3k to 4k on every service. The mileage is good always around 33 to 35 kmpl and overall condition is also good. Could please suggest ?

Can we improve the stability of this motorcycle by dropping the front fork 5mm ? This bike just doesn't inspire confidence at 130kmph. I don't mind more front weight though. But it's already on softer side. Need to check. But worried if it doesn't work out well ? Confused between honda cb300f and this.
Sarge, 2 queries. 1. How would you rate this against Dominar 250, price-wise, fit and finish wise and handling wise? 2. May I have the make/model of the helmet that you were using? 😊
