Update: New Bajaj Pulsar 135 Is Coming!!

Bajaj India seems to be all set to rock with New Pulsar 135, which is expected to be launched on 10th December, 2009. The teaser website is up which shows a black Pulsar wrapped under white semi-transparent cover which gives a glimpse of New Pulsar 135. On hovering the cursor around fuel tank you can see the Bajaj Pulsar logo with smart new design air scoops which gels very well with the design of the fuel tank.

Pulsar has been a major hit in the market; it comes in four variants: Pulsar 150 DTSi, Pulsar 180 DTSi, Pulsar 200 DTSi & Pulsar 220 DTSi. Bajaj Pulsar DTSi comes with a throttle actuated ignition-control system that works in conjunction with a chip-controlled digital capacitor discharge ignition (CDI) system for accurate ignition timing under all conditions.

The dual spark design accelerates and evens out flame propagation, which results in more efficient combustion and hence leads to better performance.Pulsar's 200cc engine delivers maximum power of 18bhp at 8000 rpm and a torque of 17.68 Nm at 6000 rpm. It looks great with its mean muscular aerodynamic shape.

Apart from the smashing look, Pulsar has lighter yet stronger alloy wheels, which when coupled with the longest wheelbase (1330mm) enhance the stability of the bike and at the same time make it more agile. It has a perfect blend of style and functionality. The posture is very flexible. You can sit at ease on it, or you can go all-out and stick your nose into the petrol tank. Shocks are good, vibrations are minimal, Switches are laid out conveniently, there’s a tacho, a beam-flasher.

The pillion is also comfortable, except for the grab-bar, which is a bit too small. It gives a mileage of 45-50kmpl and Bajaj Pulsar 150 DTSi gives 55-60 kmpl. Overall it is very good bike with good looks, feel, handling and mileage.
