What is long ride experience like on the Pulsar RS250?
Comfort whilst riding long distances is very important to many motorcycle enthusiasts, especially those who tour or enjoy weekend getaways. Sporty in design, the Pulsar RS250 raises eyebrows on whether it is a machine that can be ridden for long distances. Riders are interested in such things as seat comfort, wind protection, vibrations at highway speeds, and fuel range. Furthermore, interest lies in how the bike’s ergonomics stand up over several hours of pedaling on the bike given its more aggressive riding position as compared to standard Pulsars. The bike’s stability with luggage is another point of discussion as is pillion comfort on long rides. Some owners have discussed modifications they have made to increase long ride comfort, whilst some debate whether a sports bike like the RS250 can be expected to perform well in this regard.
I decided to take my RS250 on a 500km weekend trip and it was surprisingly decent. The riding position is not as extreme as that, and the seat is firm but supportive. At highway speeds, wind protection is okay. The only real issue was that after a few hours, there was vibration in the footpegs. All in all, it is not a touring bike, though it is capable of long rides if you are determined.
