                  the best ever

It’s powered by a 199.5 cc, liquid-cooled, 4-valve DTS-i engine that makes around 24.1–24.5 PS of power and ~18.7 Nm of torque, paired with a smooth 6-speed gearbox that delivers strong acceleration and a top speed near 140 km/h, making it fun for both city rides and highway cruising.

                  The underrated gem
                  The first gen 200ns was the bike I fell in love with back then, so I always wanted one and hence got the current version of the bike. Apart from that the character of the engine and mainly the muscular timeless design and the sound...! The ride until now has been pretty pretty good, Yes there are some nacks here n there in terms of the build quality, fit n finish and some minor vibration aroun fron visor and rear seat, But the bike feels soo much emgaging to ride, everytime I'm on the bike it wants me to rev the engine all the way, and I find myself smiling inside my helmet. the major chunk of power comes above 6k rpm and that's where all the fun starts. All though the engine is much much more refined than the original 200ns but still you can feel that aggresive character in it. I feel the braking could have been better specially the organic brake pads, I think bybre was much better. And the abs kicks in a bit sooner than needed. In terms of handling this bike is such a gem, with the new usd forks its better than ever, the bike feels so like yet so stable on highways and once you get it into corners, then you can actually unleash the full potential of this machine, the chassis and dynamics are so good, the bike just flows into corners, I think bajaj can do better job for tyres as well, the bike demands 110 and 140 sections. But Bajaj being Bajaj, they had to do cost cutting so. Overal I'd say an amazing experience so far not a single moment of regret. All I have is satisfaction and the urge to get on my bike again and go out for a spin...! Okay so if you're someone who is very much into techy features and all those stuff then you should stay away, there are many other competitors who are much better. But i think that's not the purpose of this bike. This machine is for someone who just wants to have fun every time they get on the bike, someone who want to feel that rush and adrenaline surge into your veins everytime you ride the bike, someone who wants to lean how to ride fast the right way, someone who cares more about the engaging riding feel and experience rather than spec sheets filled with all the tech gizmos... You should definitely go and have a proper ride on this bike to fell all that beforehand atleast once..!

                  NH 200 best bike
                  I choose the Bajaj pulsar ns200 for its combination of strong performance aggressive styling and excellent value for money within the 200cc segment. It is a popular choice for riders looking for a good performance machine in a budget. The Bajaj pulsar ns200 generally offers a fun and capable ride praised for its engine performance sporty handling and comfortable ergonomics for city and some longer rides. However some riders note that the engine can feel coarse with vibrations at higher RPM and the pillion seat is considered uncomfortable for long trips. The pulsar ns200 is worth considering if you prioritise strong performance and sharp handling at an affordable price making it a good option for city and occasional highway riding. However it may not be the best choice if you want modern features as it lacks some advance feature and has some drawbacks such as poor rear brake feel uncomfortable pillion seat and dated styling.

                  Very smooth and comfortable
                  I choose this bike because I think that is not just machine it's a beast bike design and looks are very attracted to me and it was my dream bike so finally now I got this and I'm very happy with this vehicle. The bike is very smooth and comfortable and I think everyone has to try this, sound is also very good, handle bar just ok but not that much good because handle is to long to ride in town and traffic. I recommend bacause bike is very smooth and comfortable so you can try this bike you can ride in city and Highway very smoothly this machine is too good bike sound is also very good not too loud but ok.

                  Good Bike for a New Biker
                  I chose the bike For the performance and the advanced features of the it. The most favourite part is of it's look and the LED light Of course it has good mileage per 1L fuel and also it has comfortable weight for a beginner Pros are- The most favourite part is of it's look and the LED light Of course it has good mileage per 1L fuel and also it has a comfortable weight for a beginner to ride ....... Cons- Seat could be more comfortable. Digital Meter could be more advanced like others. Of course I will recommend one to buy this bike.... Mostly everyone can buy but it will be a good suggestion for a beginner who wants a New Bike. I don't know about the long ride for travelling but in a mid range upto 100-150kms rides it's an excellent choice.

                  Hero Xtream 160R
                  Best-in-class power/weight , sharp handling, excellent city commute agility, and decent mileage (40 kmpl).Backed by Hero's huge, low-cost service network for worry-free ownership. I also think that it is the best bike in this segment. City king Its so light and flick able filtering traffic is effortless. This bikes pickup is a genuine thrill and I still get 40 kmpl easily. Minor fuzziness past 95 kmph and the digital console is tough to read in harsh sun. Best fun commuter buy. I recommend it because its the best value for daily riders. It has the fastest city acceleration in its class and doesn't compromise on mileage it has a decent mileage with 40 kmpl . Plus Hero's service is cheap and parts are easily available.
