Does the Pulsar N250 deliver on Bajaj’s promise of improved refinement?
30 January 2025 09:32
Face it, "refinement" is as subjective as it gets. The N250 will feel super smooth for some. For others, it will be too rough still. It’s really subjective, depending on what you’re comparing it to and what your expectations are. For the price point, I've refined it enough in my book.
Is the Bajaj Pulsar N250 really all it’s hyped up to be?
30 January 2025 09:32
In reality, the real value of the N250 lies in its reliability and its very low maintenance costs. Now, it may not be the most exciting bike out there, but it's definitely a good solid workhorse for getting the job done and not letting you down. Sometimes, outright performance is more important, but sometimes that’s more important.
Is the Pulsar N160 2 Channel ABS worthy of the Pulsar legacy?
30 January 2025 09:21
Absolutely! If the N160 is a modern evolution of the Pulsar, it feels like it. It has that same punchy feel, but with better refinement.
Is the Pulsar N160 2 Channel ABS suitable for long distance touring?
30 January 2025 09:21
I think it’s perfect for cruising along back roads and scenic routes. If you’re looking for something bigger for high speed highway touring, you might want to look elsewhere.
Is the Pulsar N160 2 Channel ABS reliable for daily commuting?
30 January 2025 09:21
So far, so good. I'm concerned about the long term reliability of the ABS system though. The multi channel version is more complex than the single channel version.
Is the Bajaj Pulsar N160 2 Channel ABS worth the additional price over the single channel version?
30 January 2025 09:21
I'd say go for it. When you think about the long term benefits though, the price difference isn’t that much. It’s also a nice feature to have should you ever want to sell the bike.
How does the Pulsar N160 2-Channel ABS fare, in terms of overall riding experience, when compared to its competitors?
30 January 2025 09:21
I would go with the N160 if it was pure riding pleasure. Which lacks some of the refinement present in a few of the other ones, but has a raw, sporty feel.
Can the Pulsar N160 tackle long distance touring?
30 January 2025 09:19
It's all about expectations I think. The N160 is a great budget touring guitar. It's efficient, it’s reliable, and it’s comfortable enough. It won't compete with the bigger bikes built for touring, but don't expect it to.
Is the Pulsar N160 the safest bike in its segment as Bajaj claims?
30 January 2025 09:19
I believe there is more marketing than reality to the N160's safety claim. It has good features, but safety isn’t the only factor. Build quality and long term reliability also play a role. These we need more time to judge.
In real world riding, how does the Pulsar N160’s engine compare to the NS160?
30 January 2025 09:19
I've been on both and the N160's engine is definitely more refined. At higher RPMs it is smoother and doesn’t vibrate as much as the NS160. Compared with the N160, the N160 is definitely more comfortable for daily commuting.
Is the Pulsar N160 a good starter bike for beginners?
30 January 2025 09:19
You all fail to remember the maintenance aspect. There are a lot of things I love about the N160, but one of the best is that it's a pretty reliable and easy to maintain bike (which is important for a beginner who might not know much about bike upkeep).
Is the Pulsar N160 all that it's cracked up to be?
30 January 2025 09:19
I honestly believe the hype is warranted. The Pulsar N160 isn't just another Pulsar, it's a complete overhaul. The older Pulsars had a rougher engine but this new one is buttery smooth and the power delivery is just right for city riding. Plus, the dual channel ABS on the higher variant is a game changer for safety in this segment.
How do things hold up over time on the Pulsar N150?
30 January 2025 09:16
The build quality on this thing is great for the price point. It’s not premium, but it feels solid and well engineered. I've ridden it off road and it has handled the abuse without a single part coming loose or breaking. It's tougher than it looks.
What is the Pulsar N150 like for taller riders?
30 January 2025 09:16
I think it has more to do with your body proportions than just height. I'm 6'1" with a longer torso, and the N150 is pretty comfortable. My legs don't seem too bent and I feel natural reach to the handlebars. It’s a matter of how well your body fits into the triangle between the seat, pegs and bars.
Is the Pulsar N150 good for long distance touring?
30 January 2025 09:16
I believe it has to do with your expectations. The limitations will really make themselves known if you’re used to riding larger bikes. However, it can be a fun way to tour if you do it the right way. Because of the lightweight nature, it’s great for exploring backroads and tight spots that bigger bikes may have trouble with.
Is the Bajaj Pulsar N150 the hype it is made out to be?
30 January 2025 09:16
I honestly believe the hype is deserved. The Pulsar line feels like a proper evolution of the N150. It’s a big improvement over the older models in terms of build quality, and the new features like LED headlight and digital cluster actually make sense. It's not revolutionary, but it's a good step up.
What is the Pulsar N125 Bluetooth like in heavy traffic conditions?
30 January 2025 09:13
Weaving through cars is perfect from the riding position. They weren’t too aggressive, they weren’t too upright.
Is the Pulsar N125 Bluetooth living up to the Pulsar brand’s performance legacy?
30 January 2025 09:13
The performance is underwhelming, but it’s got the Pulsar look. It doesn't feel like a true Pulsar to me.
Is the Pulsar N125 Bluetooth worth the extra over the standard N125?
30 January 2025 09:13
I wish I had gotten the Bluetooth version. I mean it’s a small price to pay for added convenience.
Is the Bluetooth feature on the Pulsar N125 actually useful, or just a gimmick?
30 January 2025 09:13
For a 125cc bike, it's overkill. This is a commuter bike, and most people buying it don’t need fancy tech.
