Bajaj Pulsar NS 125
Overall handling of this bike is good. But the company needs to redesign the fuel tank. Because it makes the rider uncomfortable during long trips. The ABS performs well while breaking. I feel very confident while cruising at high speeds. According to 125 cc bikes this is the one of the best. Overall good experience.

Nice vehicle with high end performance and good mileage. This is one of the stylish bike I have ever seen in my entire life in this price segment. The comfort provided by this bike is as good as that of the premium bikes can provide. The one of the main advantage is that the seat height and the LED indicators provided in it make it more attractive.
