Is the Bajaj Darkstar just an adventure dressed Pulsar?
Bajaj has a history of taking an existing model and repackaging it with a few tweaks and calling it a new bike. Rumored to be based on the Pulsar 250 platform, the Darkstar begs the question of how much of an 'adventure' bike it is. Is it going to be a genuine off road capable vehicle, or is it just a marketing ploy to cash in on the adventure hype? Others, however, are worried it will be more of a soft roader like the Honda CB200X than a true adventure bike like the Hero Xpulse. But there is also debate about whether Bajaj has the chops to make a proper adventure bike, given its focus on street and sport bikes. On the flip side, if you use the Pulsar platform, you get better reliability and less expensive pricing over purpose built adventure bikes.
It will probably be more of a road biased ADV, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing. And most riders don’t need hardcore off road capability, a more street friendly ADV could work well for Indian roads and light trails.
