Can the Pulsar Adventure do the same for the Indian market?

You’re both missing the possibilities. This could be perfect for city use if you need something tough but can’t afford a bigger bike.

I'm skeptical. It could be a jack of all trades, master of none. It’s neither rugged enough for real ADV use, nor efficient enough for pure commuting.

Bajaj knows how to create new segments. Do you remember how the original Pulsar changed the game? It could do the same for entry level ADVs.

It all comes down to pricing. It could be a huge hit if they can keep it close to regular 125cc bikes.

I think it's clever. This gives Bajaj a unique offering in its lineup, which Honda, TVS and Hero don't have.

Bajaj, I think, has made a smart move. This might not be a hardcore off roader for everyone, but perhaps city dwellers looking for something a little more rugged for the weekend getaways.

It's a bit of a stretch to call it an 'adventure' bike with 17 inch alloys. It's more like a Pulsar with a few ADV inspired styling cues. It'll probably not be any good off road.

You guys don’t get it. For younger riders, this could be a great gateway drug into the ADV world. Start here, get hooked, upgrade to a proper ADV later.

I'm skeptical. Adventure touring is kind of important and the 125cc engine might be a little too underpowered for highway use. And it may well turn out to be neither here nor there.

If it's priced right, I think it will sell like hot cakes. Bajaj is very good at finding the feature sweet spot and affordability.

I'm actually excited about this. For those who want a bike that can navigate pothole riddled city roads and the occasional gravel path but without the intimidation factor of a full size ADV, it could be perfect.

For real now, most ADV bikes are hardly ever in the dirt. If this thing can handle speed bumps and the odd dirt road, it'll do for most people's 'adventures'.
Had the Eliminator 175 arrived ahead of its time for the Indian market?
29 January 2025 09:06
Definitely ahead of its time. Back then, Indian market wasn’t ready for a small cruiser. It would probably be a hit today, if it were launched with the current craze for retro styled bikes.

No, I think it was just right. When big bikes were out of reach for most, it gave Indian riders a taste of cruiser styling. And it helped pave the way for the cruiser segment we have today.
Had the Eliminator 175 arrived ahead of its time for the Indian market?
29 January 2025 09:06
It was ahead of its time, but behind the times. While the styling was forward thinking for India, the 175cc engine was already sounding old when it was launched. The cruiser experience needed more power to sell.

Bajaj didn’t commit to developing the concept further, but I’d say it was right on time. Had they continued with it and developed the Eliminator over the years, Bajaj may be having a successful cruiser line today.

The market was too early. Riders from India were still thinking on how fuel efficient a motorcycle should be. Most buyers then did not think of a bike as a bike for leisure riding.

The Eliminator was a trailblazer. It wasn’t a huge success, but it made people aware of different types of motorcycles. In that sense, it was important in creating the diverse market we have today.

I think it was just a little bit too late. But it probably would have been a runaway hit if it had come out just a few years later, when disposable incomes were higher and people had begun to think of motorcycles as more than just a means of transportation.
Does the Dominar Scrambler’s extended ground clearance and longer suspension travel make it better suited to Indian road conditions?
29 January 2025 09:02
Absolutely! It is a godsend on potholed city roads, with the extra ground clearance. Switching over to the Scrambler version, I've bottomed out way less on speed bumps and rough patches.
