Bajaj Pulsar AS150 Review
Quick Review by Maxabout Team
Bajaj has proved itself good on the terms of promise keeping and finally declares that they have a bag full of Pulsars with them. The company launched the all-new Adventure Sport series on 14th April, 2015 at a launch event in New Delhi. One of them is the Pulsar AS150, which is priced at INR 80,500 (ex-showroom New Delhi). Being the younger member of the adventure sport family, it has everything carried from its senior, the AS200. Both the bikes have been built on the same body, with exactly the same dimensions in terms of length, width and height. The design seems to be closely related to the older 220F as both share the mark of being semi-faired, but the features in the Adventure series take them to a new height.
Design & Style
The new Pulsar AS150 was seen in its testing mode from quiet a long time. Sharing the same design of AS200, the smaller Pulsar seems to be lean due to its skinny tyres. The same front wind shield, the semi-faired body design and the same long rear mudguard, all shows how closely both the Pulsars are related. Even the younger Pulsar has been equipped with the projector lamp, making it a value for money offering in its segment. When seen in the same shade, both the Pulsars look twins, one loaded and one shredded. For those who think the fairing on a motorcycle is a waste and being from the street fighter section means too much show off, the Pulsar AS series surely meet up to the requirements, with its much advanced approach than most of the segment rivals.
Bajaj Pulsar AS150 Instrument Console
The instrument console is same as that on all the new series of Pulsars being launched. The semi digital unit looks perfect on the Pulsar 150AS as it is the best looking console by Bajaj till date. The perfect looking tachometer in the center houses the digital fuel indicator as well whereas the right section contains a fully digital speedometer and odometer. Left section includes all the lights showing neutral, high beam and turn indicators. Bajaj has been smart on this move as a single console can now be used on all the upcoming Pulsar models, keeping the cost of R&D as low as possible.
Dimensions & Weight
The length of Pulsar AS150 is 2070mm, height stands at 1205mm and width is 804mm. The seat height of the bike is 807mm. The wheelbase and fuel tank capacity of the motorcycle is 1363mm and 12 litres respectively. The kerb/wet weight of the bike is 143kg, which is 10kg less in comparison to the AS200. The specifications are perfect when seen from a rider’s point of view, leading to an easy and straight riding position further facilitating the real definition of touring and adventure sport. Carefully designed and scientifically calculated, the whole structure forms a durable and reliable machine for daily use.
Bajaj Pulsar AS150 Engine & Gearbox
The engine of Pulsar 150 AS is a tuned version of the current 150 cc, this one will also feature on the Pulsar 150NS. It produces 16.8 BHP @ 9500 rpm & 13 NM @ 7000 rpm. The AS150 has a 5-speed manual gearbox. The performance has significantly increased from the last version of 150 cc engine and the values are matching those of the current 180 DTS-i. Power of 180 cc in a 150 cc will definitely attract more number of fans for the new AS150.
Brakes & Suspension
Major difference seen is the smaller tires and non-availability of rear disc brake. Braking is restricted to a single disc brake measuring 240 mm for the front with a130 mm drum braking system at the rear. Front is using 37 mm telescopic forks with anti-friction bush and the rear has a mono shock absorber with piggy back canister.
Tyres
Smaller tires measuring 80/100-R17 and 100/90-R17 are used for the front and rear respectively. The quality of the tyres is excellent and cutting sharp edges with full confidence has been seen in the ride reviews.

Bajaj Pulsar AS150 Price

My Bajaj Pulsar AS150 skids while braking (rear tyre), what could be the reason?
21 September 2023 07:11Every bike without ABS would skid when you press the brake tightly. No matter it's tyres are thick or lean, they will get locked in a state and slip all the way till the front brake ends up the effect or the speed comes down to zero. You should apply both the brakes equally in order to get the best out of your brakes. While you will drive the bike more, your foot will have more experience on the lever and you would automatically press it to the locking limit. You can even ask the mechanic to set the wire according to your pressing style.

User Reviews for Bajaj Pulsar AS
Poor engineering in Bajaj AS200
It is a worst bike as I m using it from 2015. Electrical wiring is very poor. Headlight of my bike is not working due to poor wiring. All this happens within a year of purchase and only 8000 km. Even the handle switch bar, brake pad, clutch wire needs to be changed within 8000 km .my daily run was only 12 km per day.
Best Features: Power of the bike
Pros: Speed of the bike
Cons: Build quality is the worst
Best Adventure & Performance in this Segment
Brand new, one of its kind offering can be the first choice of all those who love wining the new roads all the time. Bajaj has completely changed its strategy and the new Pulsar is the result of the same. With such a wide choice of motorcycle engine sizes and types, Bajaj Autos plan for some market dominating moves. The introduction of the new 'Adventure Sport' will enlighten many heart who beat for the routes which are less travelled.
Best Features: Outstanding performance for this price
Pros: Performance . acceleration. Good value for money, mileage 35-40 kmpl
Cons: Eurogrip tyres, poor service knowledge in service centers, with pillion underbelly exhaust chrashes with speed break, chain becomes loose, no abs even as an option
Good Bike
Skidding very bad .Don't buy this bike in villages and local in cities. Good for long driving. Bike too much of time it's skidding. Be careful while driving. This is genuine reason. I am posting. I fall down three times. I got hit badly. For local driving please don't go for this bike. Long driving go for this bike.
Best Features: Good Mileage
Pros: Long Drive is so good in this bike. Good mileage maximum 50 km per liter in higways.
Cons: Bike is skidding most of times. Carefull while driving. Very worst in this bike.
Perfect Sports Router for Beginners.
This bike has the good potential to be your first entry level Sports tourer. Change the stock headlights with HIDs and it will illuminate the road like a car does. Engine from 200ns is good enough for cruising at 80-90 kmph without a fuss for miles and miles. Go beyond that and vibrations are going to make you a bit uncomfortable. Just for comparison, Yamaha FZS 2.0 is more smother(less vibrations) to run at 80 kmph. Then come the seats. They are literally, pain in the a**. 200 AS can go beyond 120 and will reach up to 135ish, but takes some effort. Sweet spot is 80kmph, if you are doing long distances like 150 km in one go. Fuel injection would have added more punch. Another missing thing is ABS. Thanks to Indian Government, ABS will be a must in bikes in India very soon by next year. Inspire of the shortcomings, 200 AS is a value for money, sweet little package,that is going to inspire young riders inclined towards sports touring.
Best Features: Liquid Cooling
Pros: Headlights, Liquid Cooling, Rear Disk Brakes
Cons: Vibrations, Hard Seats, Uninspiring Exhaust Note
Bike is really nice but mileage is very low...
Go for AS200 instead of AS150. When I ride this bike, I feel awesome. Tyre size is small.
Best Features: Except mileage, all features are best
Pros: Look is very good
Cons: Very poor mileage....
