Bajaj Pulsar 125 Carbon Fibre Split Seat

Quick Review by Maxabout Team

Bajaj launched the new Carbon Fibre Edition for the Pulsar 125 in 2022. Bajaj offers this Carbon fibre edition with new graphics in two new colours in contrast with black bodywork. Bajaj Pulsar 125 comes in Single seat and Split seat setup configurations.

2024 Bajaj Pulsar 125 Split Seat carries the same design and style as its other Pulsar siblings. The design has now started to grow old but it still has a cult following. The split seat design is a USP as the competitors in the segment don't have it. The Pulsar 125 Split seat is a welcome change and it also provides a good ride experience.

The Pulsar Carbon Fibre 125 Split Seat is a huge bike when compared to segment benchmarks. It is 2,042 mm in length, 765 mm in width, 1,060 mm in height, and 1,320 mm in wheelbase. The Pulsar 125 is easy to handle be it through the city or in heavy traffic.

A 124.4cc single-cylinder twin-spark DTS-i engine powers the Carbon Fibre Pulsar. It produces a max power output of 11.8 hp at 8500 rpm and a peak torque of 10.8 Nm at 6500 rpm. These figures are decent and the bike doesn’t feel underpowered under any circumstances. This BSVI-compliant twin-spark engine comes with a 5-speed transmission system. This fuel-efficient engine gives a real-world fuel economy of over 50 to 55 km/l.

Bajaj offers the Carbon fibre edition with an 80/100-R17 front tyre and a 100/90-R17 rear tyre. This configuration allows for better handling within city limits while also improving mileage. A 240mm front disc brake and a 130mm rear drum brake setup handle the braking duties. A better safety net is present in the form of single-channel ABS on the Pulsar 125 Carbon Fibre Split Seat. The Pulsar 125 is not as well equipped as its rivals when it comes to features and amenities. It gets a semi-digital instrument cluster that is carried over from the older Pulsar. There is not much to offer but the Pulsar 125 split seat is the best value-for-money product in the market.

Bajaj has equipped it with a class-leading split seat, a halogen headlamp unit, and Pulsar's signature split tail lamps. 3D logos, neon highlights, a semi-digital instrument cluster, and black alloy wheels are also there. The suspension duties are handled by the front telescopic and the 5-step Nitrox rear setup. This suspension setup along with tubeless tyres gives excellent handling and stability.

The Bajaj Pulsar 125 competes with Hero Glamour 125, Honda Shine, Honda SP125, and TVS Raider 125 in the Indian market. But since the price hike for the Pulsar 125, the competitors have a price advantage over it.
