Bajaj Pulsar AS200 Review
Quick Review by Maxabout Team
Pulsar Adventure Sport, a new term coined by Bajaj Autos seems to be an interesting new segment for the bike lovers. The first AS series motorcycle is known as Pulsar AS200. The new Pulsar has a different appeal than the other family members and seems like a touring bike from its first look.
Bajaj has finally launched the Pulsar AS200 in India with a price tag of INR 91,550 (ex-showroom New Delhi), creating a rise in the heartbeats of those who love Pulsars and touring equally. The company has increased the price of AS200 marginally and it is now priced at Rs. 94,000. Fully loaded with fun and adventure, the Pulsar pledges to prove its words and comes with advanced features and an all new design.
Design and Style
Bajaj Pulsar 200AS is beautifully designed and it looks like a perfect companion for longer rides with its perfectly placed visor and the touring appeal the body shows. It eliminates the fact that pulsars are not comfortable for long rides. Also, it badges the position of being the first Indian made Adventure and touring motorcycle. The single front projector lamp has been installed on the new Pulsar which seems to be handling the high beam functionality. With the equally good looking body and design, the Pulsar AS200 carries smart engine technologies and power, which adds a glitter to its design.
Bajaj Pulsar AS200 Engine and Performance
Pulsar AS200 shares the same engine that was used in 200 NS. It produces 23.17 BHP @ 9500 rpm and 18.3 NM of torque @ 8000 rpm. With a recognized engine performance, its 6 speed gearbox provides a hassle free riding experience on the highways. The Pulsar 200 cc engine is the best engine developed by Bajaj till date and further tuning has been avoided as the increase in the weight was managed by the same configuration only.
Bajaj Pulsar AS200 Instrument Console
Like other Pulsar bikes, the Pulsar AS200 also comes equipped with a digital-analog instrument console with a digital odometer, digital trip meter, digital speedometer and an analog tachometer. The console also comes equipped with basic tell-tales like RPM indicator, turn indicator LED light etc.

The wheelbase and fuel tank capacity of Pulsar AS200 is 1363mm and 12 litres respectively. The kerb/wet weight of the bike is 153kg The ground clearance of the bike has been kept 10 mm lower than the AS150, which can be the result of increased weight of the bike.
Brakes and Suspension
Double disc brakes are used for the braking purpose on the new Bajaj AS200. The front disc is 280mm and the size of rear disc brake is 230mm. The seating position has been kept more comfortable by keeping in mind its touring nature. A 37 mm telescopic suspension is seen at the front with monoshock absorber with piggy back canister at the back.
Bajaj Pulsar AS200 Mileage
No official comment has been made on its mileage but same mileage as that of 200NS is expected with a minor difference due to a new front design. The fairing was light weight this time as the one for the RS200 was really heavy.
Bajaj Pulsar AS200 Colours
Pulsar AS200 is being offered in 3 shades namely Red, Black and Blue. Surprisingly, no stickers have been shown on its body in the launch event. This time Bajaj seems to show its power through simplicity.

What should be done to get the optimum mileage from Bajaj Pulsar AS200?
12 September 2023 04:57The mileage factor in a Pulsar can only be seen if you ride the bike between a speed of 50-60 kmph, that too in the top gear for most of the time. In current traffic conditions, the same possibility is not possible practically. You should try to choose you daily route which gets less traffic, which directly means less braking. You should switch off the engine on traffic lights and clean your air filter and fuel delivery system at regular intervals. The bike should be driven with appropriate air pressure in the tyres as less would reduce mileage whereas more would reduce traction.
-
Why Bajaj Pulsar AS200 vibrates so much, is it an engine issue or can be fixed in service? Why the pick-up is not good in 2nd gear?
29 December 2022 05:53The Bajaj Pulsar AS200 would get more refined as its first 3 services are done. The vibrations are generally caused at higher rpm's and high speeds. The bike gets a refined engine in the form of 199.5 cc liquid cooled motor. You should not worry as frequent servicing would make the ride quality better day by day and the pickup would increase after the service also. The bike gets 18.3 NM of torque, making it good to accelerate the bike in 2nd gear. You should consult your nearest Bajaj service center as the fuel settings and other details are also responsible for lower pickup in the first few service intervals.

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

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....
