Bajaj Pulsar SS Review
Quick Review by Maxabout Team
In the last Auto Expo in 2014, Bajaj has also shocked the audience with its out of the world, 400 cc segment twins. From two different segments, the Pulsars shared the same engine. The SS400, where SS stood for 'Super Sport', is a beast in the gentlemen look. It shares its design with the RS200 but gives a 43 BHP power blow. It is expected with a 35 NM torque value and will be available in the same shades as the RS200 will be available. It also uses the same triple spark technology which is being used on the Pulsar AS and RS series.
The other one from the Auto Expo was the CS400. It shared the same 373.2 cc engine, with a difference in its body style, which matches the cruiser motorcycles. So, here the CS stands for 'Cruiser Sport'. This segment is all about a Pulsar, which is lean and muscular, with a lot more power inside than its looks reveal. It has been beautifully designed, with a simple structure and lesser curves. A totally new exhaust has been planted and the launch plans have not yet been revealed for both the 400 offerings.

Fast Facts about the Bajaj Pulsar 400 TwinsAbout Bajaj Pulsar Brand
Bajaj Autos had a totally new ideology about the Indian motorcycle market some 15 years ago and on 24 November 2001 it was seen in the form of a new lining of motorcycles called as Bajaj Pulsar. Being a scooter based brand, Bajaj had a very tough time switching over into a new segment where the already established firms were having a very good time with their little variety of offerings. Before Pulsar, the Indian market was bent toward small engine motorcycles with no performance expectations and high mileage. Pulsar, at that time changed the traditional biking philosophy and started a new era of speed and performance.
The same spirit has been carried over by the Pulsar from last 14 years and till date; Performance and Pulsars are side by side thoughts in every mind. At the time of introduction, Pulsar's featured all the modern equipment of that time. The disc brake was a proud possession of a Pulsar owner and its muscular appeal was a dream of every teenager. Riding a Pulsar at that time was nothing less than talking to the winds and the same feel can be experienced today also. Bajaj Autos has been updating the technology from time to time and the results are crystal clear.
Bajaj has started the Pulsar with an idea of an ideal Indian performance bike with a balance of economy and sport functionality. Today the ever expanding market has many more challenges and the specificity of every segment has forced the Pulsar to change its form from a basic performance oriented machine to a specific segment competitor. The Pulsar is offered in various engine options staring from 135 cc, then 150 cc, the 180 cc, 200 cc and the favourite of all, the 220 cc. Every engine has the same Pulsar DNA; the pledge to perform remains same whether it’s the oldest one or the youngest one.
Bajaj Autos understands the need of classification of their Pulsars in such a way that everyone finds a suitable on for himself, without going through each one before purchasing. The definition of each different Pulsar lies in its name. Bajaj has coined these terms based on the segment the Pulsar belongs to and also for the purpose of its birth.
Bajaj has classified its Pulsars in every way, making it easy for us to choose what we exactly wish for. From its classic appeal to the modern day technology, Bajaj has balanced everything with its segment differentiation. Go ahead, choose yours.
FAQs
-
What would make the Pulsar SS400 stand out from the crowd?
31 January 2025 10:54Bajaj is likely to concentrate on tech features that will make the SS400 stand out. The fancy TFT display will have smartphone connectivity and perhaps even built in navigation. Alongside those details, they could also take a shot at ride modes and traction control to match more expensive bikes.
-
Is the Bajaj Pulsar SS400 worth all the hype?
31 January 2025 10:54It’s not going to be able to compete with the established supersports. But that's not the point. Bajaj can deliver a great bike, which does look the part and offers decent performance at an affordable price and it can be a great entry level for those who want to get into sport bikes but don’t want to break the bank.
-
How will the Pulsar SS400 compare against KTM's product line?
31 January 2025 10:54I believe that Bajaj will keep the SS400 one step below RC390 in terms of performance, deliberately. Especially since they profit from the partnership with KTM, they won't be keen to cannibalize KTM sales. The SS400 should be more comfortable and practical for daily use but less track focused than the KTM.
-
What will the Pulsar SS400’s maintenance costs be compared to its competitors?
31 January 2025 10:46In fact, the SS400 might be the ideal track for beginners. This will have enough power to grow into, but not enough power that it is unmanageable. Crash parts are less expensive than a high end sport bike and if you crash, you have a lot less to lose.
-
When it comes to the Bajaj Pulsar SS400, is all the hype around it justified?
31 January 2025 10:46Overhyped, if you ask me. Bajaj is no expert when it comes to high performance machines, but commuter bikes. Rather than that, I would have preferred going for a proven bike like the KTM RC 390 or even saving up for a proper Japanese supersport.
-
What is the real world rideability of Pulsar SS400 against KTM RC 390?
31 January 2025 10:46I don't think so. However, the riding styles of the SS400 and Dominar 400 are different. The SS400 will be the choice for sport bike enthusiasts, but if you want a more versatile machine, then the Dominar will be your pick.
-
What is the approx. mileage of Bajaj Pulsar SS400 and Pulsar CS400?
02 January 2023 06:39Bajaj Pulsar 400 cc twins are expected to return around 30 kmpl from their 373.2 cc, single cylinder engine. The motor is liquid cooled and fuel injected, producing 43 BHP and 35 Nm of torque on the KTM bikes. Bajaj is expected to detune the engine and still keep the horsepower above 40 BHP and torque above 30 Nm. The Pulsar SS400/RS400 will carry the same design as RS 200 while the CS series would be completely new with cruiser styled performance bikes. They are expected to be priced above INR 1.5 lakh and kept under INR 2 lakh.
-
Will Bajaj Pulsar SS400 be available in white shade?
02 January 2023 06:29The Bajaj Pulsar SS400 would launch under the race sport category, with the name RS400. It come with the 373.2 cc, 1-cylinder engine producing approximately 43 BHP and 35 NM of torque. The shade options till the time are expected to be the same as the RS200, which include a Red and Yellow shade only. The Black Pulsar RS200 has also been spotted a few time, making the chances of RS400 in Black for real. The White shade is most probably the one which would be skipped. The bike comes with a good design, twin projector headlamps and expected ABS on both the wheels. It is expected with a price tag of INR 1,75,000.

What is the top speed of Bajaj Pulsar SS400, is it faster than KTM RC390?
02 January 2023 06:18The top speed of Bajaj Pulsar SS400 is expected to be same as that of KTM RC390. Both the bikes use the same engine, therefore keeping the basic performance same.
