      awesome Bike
      Big-bike looks: It has the exact same muscular, aggressive styling as the Pulsar 150, making it look premium. Great mileage: It easily delivers 50 to 55 kmpl in daily city traffic, keeping fuel expenses very low, comfortable ride, The seat is soft and spacious, and the upright riding posture prevents back pain during traffic jams. Solid highway stability: unlike lightweight 125cc commuters, its heavier chassis keeps it stable and vibration-free at 70–80 kmph. Low maintenance spare parts are widely available across India and are very affordable compared to rivals.

      interesting attract in daily and riding experience
      because the importance of performance, speed, ride smoothly, feel a better, style and look is choosen a based on the bike, or the brother have almost 5-7 brother chose a pulser on they are one reason the choose a bike. So far the ride has been completely fine. so far i have travelled mostly i group of 3 passenger but there is no different b/w travelling solo or in a triple, except that mileage may be different on the ride. I recommend the different reason pulsar buying i required on home to office on 60km going and 60km coming for they are not any problem on the ride time but the also required on 1.5litre petrol on tank or not but our bike is stop or not run 1 km to more or your choice you buy on your purpose.
