Pulsar NS250 is called a “Naked Sport”, i.e. the “NS” in the name implies that the bike should offer high performance credentials. Riders are arguing over whether the NS250 was meant to deliver a sporty riding experience or was just a marketing gimmick. Its power to weight ratio and acceleration are impressive for its class, say some; others feel underwhelmed by the performance compared with more performance oriented naked bikes. The conversation shifts to the bike’s top speed, throttle response and general motor sport character. We also look at how the NS250 fares in real world scenarios such as quick overtakes, twisty roads, and even the odd track day. But enthusiasts are weighing in on whether the NS250 hits the sweet spot between everyday usability and sporty thrills, or if it is too focused on one end of the spectrum or the other.
