Discussions and Questions - Bajaj Pulsar F250 Bajaj Pulsar F250
How does F250 build quality and fit and finish stack up against premium 250cc offering?
30 January 2025 09:06
I was worried on the build quality coming from a KTM, but I've been pleasantly surprised. I feel as if it is a solid and well put together. My only weak point I've found is the mirrors, they vibrate a lot at high speeds.
Are other bikes of the class F250's engines heat management with exceptions.
30 January 2025 09:06
The heat management is great, but I would have loved it if Bajaj went for complete liquid cooling. It would have cost more, but it would have also improved performance and long term reliability.
Does the F250's headlight suffice for night riding on dark country roads?
30 January 2025 09:06
In fact, I actually like it better than some more expensive bikes I have ridden. It has a nice, defined cutoff that doesn’t blind oncoming traffic. It could be brighter, but it’s more than adequate.
Is the Pulsar F250 too aggressive for daily commuting?
30 January 2025 09:06
That said, it’s definitely more aggressive than an upright naked bike, but that’s part of the appeal. For 30 40 minute rides I fine with it but for anything longer I start to feel it in my lower back. Not really ideal if you have a really long commute.
Does the F250 2 channel ABS make a difference over single channel systems?
30 January 2025 09:06
The dual channel system is definitely more confidence inspiring. I don’t have to worry about locking up either wheel, so I can brake harder. On long rides fatigue may affect your braking finesse and it’s particularly nice.
So is the Pulsar F250 really worth paying a premium over the N250 for, or are you simply paying for looks?
30 January 2025 08:19
It depends on your priorities. The F250's fairing makes highway riding less tiring if that's what you do. If you commute in the city, the N250 is probably the smart choice. Consider how you’ll be using the bike the most.
Does the Pulsar F250's fairing really do anything to help protect from wind?
30 January 2025 08:19
I honestly think it's more for looks than function. I've ridden the F250 and N250 and the difference in wind protection is minimal at best. If that’s your only concern, save your money and go for the N250.
Have they told you that you will be able to ride the Pulsar F250 all day?
30 January 2025 08:19
After all, there isn’t a stock bike that’s perfect for everyone. A good start would be the F250. With a little personalization (handle bar risers, different seat, etc.) it can be made quite comfortable for long hauls.
Is Bajaj finally getting their quality control act together with the Pulsar F250?
30 January 2025 08:19
It’s better quality, but it’s not up to the level of the Japanese bikes. Having said that, I think the F250 represents good value for the price point. So just be prepared to baby it a little more than you would a Honda or Yamaha.
Is the Pulsar F250, in fact, the spiritual successor to the legendary Pulsar 220F?
30 January 2025 08:19
I believe we are looking at this in the wrong way. The F250 is not a carbon copy of the 220F. It's an evolution. A better tech, smoother engine, and still great for touring. They’re not trying to be the same, they’re carrying the torch forward.
