A test mule of the Bajaj Pulsar 150, likely a BS6-ready model, has been spotted testing. Aside from the retuned engine, the bike seems to come with a couple of added features and cosmetic changes.
The most obvious update is the reintroduction of the red colour scheme, but this time with subtle graphics on the front headlight cowl. The front end gets a couple of other changes in the form of premium steel braided brake lines, a gold finished caliper and reflectors on the front fork.
The engine is the same 149cc single-cylinder mill that powers the current model. The change here is that it is fuel injected now. This will help the motor meet the BS6 emission norms which will kick in on 1 April 2020. In the current state of tune, the Pulsar 150 makes 14PS at 8,000rpm and 13.4Nm at 6,000rpm, mated to a 5-speed transmission.
In terms of underpinnings, the bike uses the same telescopic fork and twin shock absorber setup. A front disc brake with single-channel ABS and a rear drum unit handle braking duties. Its 17-inch alloy wheels comes wrapped in 80/100 front and 100/90-section rear tyres.
Considering the aforementioned updates, we expect a price hike of around Rs 4,000 to Rs 6,000 over the current variants. Bajaj offers the Pulsar 150 in three variants: Standard (Rs 84,461), Twin Disc (Rs 88,339) and Neon (Rs 68,250, ex-showroom Delhi). It competes against the Hero Xtreme Sports, Honda CB Unicorn 150 and the TVS Apache RTR 160.
Bajaj Pulsar 150 (2018-2026) User Reviews
- reliable daily commuter with great mileageNeeded something dependable for daily city traffic that wouldn't eat up all petrol money. looked at a few other 150cc options but the pulsar 150 just felt like the right balance of price, low maintenance and that classic muscular look that never gets old. Honestly pretty smooth for daily running, engine has nice pickup in lower gears so overtaking in heavy trafffic is easy, getting a solid 45-50 km regularly, only slight downside is minor handle vibes past 85 kmph but for everyday city speeds, its steady and comfortable. Definitely 100 percent recommend it, if you want a reliable everyday bike with decent power and great fuel efficiency, maintenance is super cheap and spare parts are available anywhere. just a solid, no nonsense daily runner that gets the job done.Read More4

It feels comfortable for daily use, gives good mileage and has strong pickup. Handling is stable and confident, especially on highways where it feels smooth and controlled even at higher speeds. Yes, I would recommend this bike. I bought it mainly for daily office travel and occasional weekend rides. It gives me decent mileage and the pickup is good enough for city traffic. On highways it feels stable and confident. The suspension is slightly stiff on rough roads but overall comfort is fine. If someone wants a practical, stylish and reliable bike in this budget, this is a good choice.Read More10 2
