The only difference between the Pulsar 250F and N250 is the half fairing on the 250F, both sharing the same engine and most components. As a result, there will be debates on which one gives a better overall package. The 250F is a sportier look, with wind protection, and some riders like that for highway rides. But others say the N250 is more nimble in city traffic and easier to maneuver. Discussions are also had as to whether the fairing actually gives significant wind protection at higher speeds. Some will say the N250 feels slightly quicker off the line, but weight difference is minimal. Other factors to consider include maintenance costs and ease of cleaning since the naked version may be actually easier to work on. In the end, it depends on personal preference and usage.
