If you're an MSF instructor, it's a good choice. Easy enough to manage, yet still has enough power to grow with you as skills develop.

I believe it’s ideal for beginners. It’s comfortable in an upright riding position, and yet, the power is manageable. And it looks cool on top of that, which is a nice plus when you're just starting out!

It depends on the beginner. It's great if you're young or eager. If you’re a bit older or more cautious, you might not want to start out so sporty.

I began with a Pulsar 125 Neon and then followed this with a 200NS. It was a perfect progression. The 125 taught me the basics, but didn’t overwhelm me. Highly recommend for newbies!
Is the Pulsar 125 Neon really the hype?
29 January 2025 09:59
Honestly, I think it's overhyped. Yeah, it looks like a Pulsar, but it doesn’t have the punch that we associate with the name. It’s like drinking a watered down cola, it looks the same, but it’s missing the kick.
Is the Pulsar 125 Neon really the hype?

Disagree! Its decent power for instance for a 125cc. And you get Pulsar styling without having to break the bank. Perfect for new riders or commuters looking for a fuel efficient daily commuter.

It's a mixed bag. It's well built and, in the city, it's easy to drive and light to steer. However, it doesn't feel quite as thrilling on highways. If you are primarily riding in urban areas, I would say it is worth it.

I love my Pulsar 125 Neon as a college student. It runs cheap, looks cool, and has enough pep for me. You don't need a speed demon, right?

The point I think people are missing. This is not a powerhouse, it is an entry level Pulsar. For what it is, it delivers. Perfect for learning and building confidence before moving yourself on to bigger bikes.

If you look at the target audience, the hype is justified. It’s making the Pulsar experience available to a broader group of riders. It’s not as powerful, but it’s a great starting point in the Pulsar journey.

It's worth it, and I have one now and I've had it for a year. It turns heads, it's low maintenance costs, and good mileage. It’s all about managing expectations, it’s a 125cc, not a 220!
Does the Pulsar 125 Neon vibrate?
29 January 2025 09:59
I've had mine for 6 months and yes, there are vibrations, particularly over 80 km/h. It's not unbearable, but it's definitely there. After a while you get used to it.
Does the Pulsar 125 Neon vibrate?
29 January 2025 09:59
I really don’t think people exaggerate the vibration issue. This is a single cylinder 125cc, so a little vibration is standard. The Honda CB Shine vibrates just as much as my friend’s.
Does the Pulsar 125 Neon vibrate?
29 January 2025 09:59
It’s not a deal breaker, but the vibrations are real. Most of it, I solved by switching to better quality handlebar grips. That made a world of difference on longer rides.
Does the Pulsar 125 Neon vibrate?

I test rode the Pulsar 125 and the NS125. The regular 125 definitely vibrates more. If it is a bother to you, perhaps try the NS version, it is smoother.
Does the Pulsar 125 Neon vibrate?

As a mechanic, I’ll tell you that most of those vibration complaints stem from poorly maintained bikes. The vibrations will be minimal, so long as you keep your Pulsar in good shape.
Does the Pulsar 125 Neon vibrate?
29 January 2025 09:59
I guess it all depends on what you expect. I was coming from a scooter and I could feel the vibrations. My friend who downgraded from a Pulsar 220 says it is smooth!
Does the Pulsar 125 Neon vibrate?
29 January 2025 09:59
There is vibration, but it ain't as bad as some would have you believe. That's part of the character of the bike. Buy a car if you want butter smooth!
Are tall riders going to fit on a Pulsar 125 Neon?
29 January 2025 09:59
At 6'2" I find it surprisingly comfortable. The seat height and handlebar position work well for me. It’s not as roomy as bigger bikes, but it’s decent for a 125cc.

Tall rider here (6'0"). For short rides, it’s okay, but for longer rides I do feel a bit cramped. Seat could be a tad longer wish.
