I loved the emotion which went unde the word "Pulsar" every time u uttered. i own a 2012 Pulsar 220F. While it has completed 60K KM, i still cant fathom how good the enthusiasm is on the bike. im sad that Bajaj did not revive the brand of Pulsars as it shud have while the entire sporty bike segment grew. sadly the RS200 did not make a hit as much as CBBR 250s or still to compare it with Yamaha 150. With so much time and years of experience, Pulsars shud have been the King of thrones when it came to 250 or 300 CC segment. its v v sad to see Gigxar and othr bikes taking the demand for pulsar away. NS and 220 shud have been made better bikes. Dominor needn't have existed in my opinion, if a BS4 version of Pulsar 400 cud have done the job better. Not to mention, these were one of the last bikes to hold big tank- 15-18L of capacity and we need not worry of touring in these for hundreds of KMs. I have not heard stories of Pulsars breakdown at anypoint, expet for their break pads and discs which were lacking engineering. But now Bajaj cud have learned from their partnerships to make this a beautiful motorcycle to ride. I Bid a v sad farewell to what "Pulsars- Definitely Male" stood for.... and Hope they kindle the emotion in every 90s kid the next time they see a 180,200 or 220 run on the roads.

Nostalgia hit hard for someone who owned the P150 UG3 as his first motorcycle and then upgraded to a P220. Apart from the smaller niggles like the clip-on handlebar breaking on a corner to the gear shifter falling off mid-ride, the engines and (daredevil) chassis had a character. Still recollect the way Karizma owners tried to overtake Pulsars as though an untold Ind-Pak road fight emerged without any warning lights. I feel the new age Pulsars are the RTR series from TVS. I do miss the two decades with my Pulsars and the chaps at Probiking who made every service a knowledge learning activity. But, with the amount of failures, I would not recommend Pulsars anymore. Let alone the fact that nothing about the N or P excites like the earlier Pulsars. Good video, love the views, edit and studio.

I agree everything you wrote. These new gen Pulsars have actually lost their charm & attractiveness which they were known for. To me P220 is the last orginal Pulsars ever known in the Indian motorbike markets. Yes, I still own my Pulsar 150 DTSI UG4 (with handlebar instead of split handles) & it still gives me pure joy with an average of 40-45 mileage (I drive rough & fast in the city traffic) & i barely take it to highways cuz beyond 70kmph it's irritating. The only thing I upgraded are it's worst halogen 35w bulb with 35w LED NIGHTEYE, tube tyres to tubeless ones & the recommended engine oil to Motul 20w-50 5100.

"Pulsar is an Emotion for 90's kids." In the second week of January, I borrow my friend's Bajaj 150 Pulsar (2015 edition), 7 years old, to ride to Mysuru with my wife. It's a mix of experience, 1. The riding posture; the pressure you get from the pillow directly impacts your hand, and it is challenging to continuously ride more than 100kms. 2. I was riding on Bangaluru-Mysuru Highway, and it was tough to move it beyond 90km/hr; I didn't feel very confident about the breaks, and the vibrations were killing the experience. This bike is an emotion for me; I still remember the first model with that bulky fat tank!

I think the P150 trades on the characteristics of the LS135 now.. Lighter, Nimbler, Simpler with a dash of sportiness, refined and pocket friendly to run and maintain. It won't be hard for college goers to convince their parents to get them one. On the other hand.. the N160 was pressed on to duty to bank on or rather to increase the desirability factor of the N250..and with a slightly more matured character than the otherwise slightly fun-loving eccentric P150. It's more for someone who really loved the N250 but wanted a more economical sibling..now can settle with the N160. May be this is how, I hope Bajaj had thought while giving a green signal to the developments of both P-150 and N-160.

@rockkhard8037 Жыл бұрын
Yeah I did test ride the 160 4v couple of weeks ago felt it that isn't that happy to stay on one gear for a long time and needs frequent shifts. The bike asks to push it to it's extreme but doesn't give you the confidence(may be smaller tyres are the reason) at the same time, atleast in the urban areas because I never tried it on the highway. I had to look further up towards the 200 rtr but ended up buying the N160 yesterday because I somehow found what I was looking for in the 160 section. With my rides probably being restricted to in and around Bangalore, the N is very much what I wanted. Even If had bought the RTR I would pretty much stick to rain mode mostly and switch to urban mode (I don't need sports mode in traffic and also my work place is just 4kms away) when the roads are dry and N does perform better in these scenarios and also the dual channel adds to extra benefit. The only thing that concerns me though is the performance on bad road conditions that give you an off-road experience. When it comes to the P series it wasn't at offer for test ride in the showrooms I enquired.

With all the features Indian company is giving compared to any 15 bhp bike is more and above that Apache feels slightly quicker than bajaj n160. But i wana say one thing if u guys wana buy a bike which is more enjoyable and good for saving fuel and everything, then go with gixxer. it is truly a hidden jem. The engine is very refined and wheelbase is shorter which makes it fun to ride in city. And also it has better handling than apache 160 4v. Still this is just my opinion.

Great Review guys , really loved it. I bought a N160 last year and just a few moths later....bajaj decided to release the P150. So far, my experience has been delightful ngl. I was very close to booking a Apache 160 4V but later after the test ride, it became obvious that isn't made for me as the bike is too short ( I seel this coz ii'm 6'1)and the seating is way too sporty. The pulsar on the other hand is very very comfortable and is very stable at speeds above 100kmph. My opinion on whether to buy the P or the N is that, spend the extra rs 11,000 and go for the N as dual channel ABS is a llifesaver, especially during the monsoon and the wider tires help alot. About the rear suspension, yes I agree it's very stiff but, its ADJUSTABLE! The rear suspension gets considerably softer when a pillion is seated but I've adjusted the rear and now it feels like it's doing justice to the arguably best fronnt suspensions in class. Open to hear opinions on why the P is better XD.

N160 vs rtr160 4v which one is better in terms of looks, build quality and reliability
@motorinc Жыл бұрын
Since the N160 is new, it's hard to tell what its reliability will be -- it certainly feels more together than Bajaj's usual. Looks? We think the RTR looks better although it is now an oooold design for sure. Build? N is good, RTR is slightly better still
@archieslopestar587 Жыл бұрын
160 definitely because of the duel channel ABS which is also first in its class

Thank you. Finally someone has cleared up the confusion on which of the 4 Pulsar 150/160 should be purchased. The answer was simple though, buy the newest one. I suppose this video was easier to do since it's just Bajaj involved in this comparo but the Ronin/ Hunter was the one that was truly hats off. On another note, you keep saying there are 9 Pulsars. I counted 10 on Bikewale. Counting the N250 and F250 as one?

Great content MotorInc. Nice to see you talking about motorcycles and what they stand for. When the Pulsar was launched back in 2001, I was in college and I remember being totally gobsmacked by the design. It was like nothing else on the market. That period was like the Renaissance period for the biking segment. It was not a perfect bike but its flaws gave it character. There was something that clearly differentiated it from the CBZ. Every manufacturer brought its A game to the table. Every product had a clear differentiation. Think Yamaha FZ or LML Graptor (hope you remember that one 😀), or even the original Honda Unicorn. Over time I think all niche ideas in the 150cc segment have been exhausted. The Pulsar has just become "another" bike in the segment. It has become matured and civilized to the point of being boring. I would rather buy a tattered copy of the original Pulsar from 20 years ago and restore it instead of buying this one.
