                • Pros
                • Cons
                • Bajaj Pulsar N125

                  • Looks: The N125’s design language is a fresh one and doesn’t look like any other Pulsar
                  • Lightness: 125kg kerb means the N125 feels super light, especially when riding through heavy traffic
                  • Smoothness: its engine is smooth, even at highway speeds
                  • Suspension: it’s very comfortable on bad roads too
                  • Price: undercuts both its chief rivals: the TVS Raider and the Hero Xtreme 125R

                  Bajaj Pulsar NS160

                  • Handles well and changes direction quickly
                  • Now comes with smartphone connectivity and turn-by-turn navigation
                  • Styling is similar to its bigger sibling, the NS200
                • Bajaj Pulsar N125

                  • The front brake could’ve been a bit sharper
                  • It misses out on ABS, something even the Bajaj Platina 110 gets
                  • The finish levels and panel gaps could’ve been a bit better

                  Bajaj Pulsar NS160

                  • One of the heaviest bikes in its class
                  • Engine isn’t refined at higher revs
                  • Pulsar N160 does almost everything that the NS160 does, at a much lower price

                  Nice owing
                  Nice and balanced overall. Bike weight is very good. Its never goes disbalanced. Mileage is 55 around, no matter where you drive and which kind of conditions are you driving on. Seats are a bit conjusted but driving experience is overall good. Suspensions works well on road. Perfect bike for daily commuting also.

                  THE BAJAJ PULSAR N 125
                  At the time of selection I was curious in selecting one I already had a 150 in my home. bajaj is so reliable. the model is so cunning with heavy fuel economy with just a standard price offering many specification. If you are a new rider the n125 can be the best for you. The seat is not so comfort whereas the steering balance is buttery smooth. easily managed, smooth clutch and a refined engine ..with the Bluetooth connectivity it is always as easy to ride never before Best version of the 125 segment even competitor for the ns125 with my experience it is best to buy the n125 with all these features with a standard pricing leaving some of the features like tachometer, abs, gear indicator,switch lights..rest is worth for money

                  Rider experience.
                  The bike is just unique feels different outstands the other boring similar designed bikes really proud 💪👌. The seat's stiff but trust me it can be handled with no problem. And it preety much handles the city traffic situation very smoothly. Would recommend more bikes like this and more upgrades...

                  Good bike for youngsters
                  Good handling and medium breaking, medium performance for short time city and highway riding, good sharp stylish looking naked bike, good road presence, low service charge with medium mileage 30 to 40 kmpl. Long ride comfort is not good after 100km. Wrist pain and shoulder pain, good handling bike. It's give you confidence to flicker very easily. Front break is good stopping power but too much abs kicking problem, rear brake is not good, no stopping power. Top speed after 2nd service 124 highest, mileage not that good 40 km after simple riding. If you ride aggressively, mileage can drop upto 30-25 kmpl. Can recommend this bike to the youngsters who go to college and those who want to explore many places on bike. Short time riding and some time aggressive riding and those who want naked sports bike in low cc and low service charge bike, this is good for them.

                  Excellent bike
                  My pulsar NS 160 is still in excellent condition with all documents and riding experience is awesome and bike is also fast and reliable. It also offers dual channel Abs and it has less maintenance cost and it gives immense pleasure to ride. Bike mileage is about 40 kmpl and full tank costs nearly 1k only and this is the best bike, I have ever rode in my life.

                  good bike but need some improvements.
                  The bike is good handling and performance but the mileage is not that good, it gives me 30-35 kmpl mileage. Meanwhile, the other 160 segment bikes give more mileage and it's not that smooth at higher revs, feels too much vibration. Design is good and handling is good but not so comfortable feels pain in back and shoulder after long ride as it's sports bike.

                  Review of my 6 years old NS160
                  I got this bike when i was 18 back in 2019, after almost 6 plus years and 30 thousand kilometres. I personally see this bike as the best value for money one can get. Apart from that this bike is still relevant after all these years. The one thing i like the most about this vehicle is its handling. If maintained well this bike gives a smooth and comfortable ride be it in city or highway. Mine is twin disc variant with single channel ABS, break bite is quick enough to react in emergency breaking situations. The only con I have noticed so far is bajaj's parts durability. Though they offer parts at cheaper rates comparatively but still it becomes a headache when you need to replace them more often. Will recommend this bike any day. For me this is a perfect package of commuter, adventure, long riding basically everything. I have done 500 kms in a single day stopped at every 100 kms for nearly 30 mins and the bike performed very well. This is a perfect bike for those who look for a all-rounder bike with low maintenance.
