Forks like this are becoming more common in the sport bike segment and are known as Upside-Down (USD) forks which help with handling and provide a premium feel. But, the 2025 Bajaj Pulsar RS200 still utilizes conventional telescopic forks. The decision has spawned talk about whether the RS200 can compete in its class without this feature. There are some who argue USD forks are necessary on a modern sport bike, and others who argue they are not necessary for the RS200s target market. The debate revolves around performance, cost and market positioning and enthusiasts are weighing in on whether Bajaj took the right decision for this model.
