Bajaj Pulsar RS200

Talking about the design, the Pulsar RS200 comes with a full fairing look. The front is quite aggressive embracing twin projector headlamp with AHO, LED pilot lamps, clear lens turn indicators and clip-on handlebars. The panel surrounding the instrument cluster gets a carbon fibre finish which is quite nicely done. The cluster displays all the important readings which a rider needs to feed on while riding the bike. 

In addition, there are split seats, race exhaust, floating split LED tail lamps that certainly add funky character to the bike. Both the newly added colours, Racing Blue and Graphite Black, are pleasing and can be an impactful factor when selecting a sports bike like this. The interesting part of Racing Blue Pulsar RS200 variant is that it comes with different coloured alloys, front gets a blue treatment and the rear alloy wheel is painted in black, which is as cool as you’d like. However, the Graphite Black edition sports black alloys both at the front and at the rear. 

Having said that the bike comes with a lot of cuts, lines and edges, Pulsar RS200 is not for everyone. For some, it steals the breath away while for others it is just overdone by the company. Overall the design of Pulsar RS200 is quite busy.

Dimensionally it measures 1999mm long, 765mm wide and 1114mm high. Ground clearance stands at 157mm and wheelbase is around 1355mm. 

Built on the Perimeter Beam Section frame, the RS200 rides on telescopic front forks with anti-friction bush and Nitrox Mono shock absorbers with Canister at the rear. The combination of chassis and suspension assembly is worth admiring as it arms the rider with great confidence when getting around the corners at high speeds. The bumps and roughness of roads can be easily bypassed. The overall ride quality is good and smooth experience is guaranteed whenever you twist the bike’s throttle. On the braking front, there is 300mm disc at the front and 230mm disc at the rear which in combination with MRF rubber lends supreme braking force to the Pulsar RS200. The bike comes with ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) that extends its braking capabilities. The single-channel ABS is engaged only on the front disc. It sports 17-inch alloy wheels of which front wraps around 100/80 tubeless tyre and the rear is covered with 130/70 tubeless tyre.

Bajaj Pulsar RS200 is equipped with ABS that not only adds to the safety front but gives the rider the confidence to push the bike through corners and on straight line and at the same time feel the punchy engine. Plus, the new Pulsar RS200 has LED twin projector headlamp with AHO that ensures visibility is intact regardless of the light and weather conditions.
