Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Bajaj Pulsar N250
- Comfortable ride quality
- Refined engine with a lot of torque, making city rides effortless
- Low seat height makes it accessible for shorter riders
- ABS modes and traction control make the bike quite feature rich
Yamaha R15 V4
- TFT console is feature packed
- Razor-sharp handling like a proper sport bike
- VVA (Variable Valve Actuation) makes the engine very tractable at city speeds

Bajaj Pulsar N250
- Build quality could have been better
- It misses out on a sixth gear, which would have made highway riding more effortless with the bike
- It has just one button to navigate through the instrument console and the features, which is not very user-friendly
Yamaha R15 V4
- Aggressive riding posture might not suit everybody
- Headlight spread is a bit narrow
- Not the most comfortable for pillion riders
- The R15M top variant is quite expensive; costs almost the same as some 400cc bikes

I have this bike for 9 years and is amazing
I have this bike for 9 months now and this bike has really impressed a 250cc bike for this price with great performance, style, comfort is really amazing I think this can beat most of the 250cc bikes. I wish we could have 6 gears in the bike which would have been even amazing I have recommended my friends aswell.

Need 6 gear
5 speed gear box is more than enough for daily commute, it has slipper clutch and more torque machine, it is not meant for sportier bike it is torquish bike, it has led headlight and many led stuffs, fresh design for a pulsar. Value for money at the price segment. Oil cooling system is the only drawback but its not too worse for the performance oil cooling is good.

Yamaha R15M
Very good experience with my Yamaha R15M Gives good mileage and always compete with 200cc No vibration at all...Good looks and refined Engine hats off to yamaha 155cc doesn't seem like a world of power, but the engineering that has gone into this, the refinement and when the VVA kicks in, that feel is in another league! Dual nature of the engine is a treat to experience and gives the best of both worlds- mileage and power.
