2024 Bajaj Pulsar N250 Features Explained: Here’s Everything You Need To Know About The Pulsar’s New Features
From traction control to ABS modes, the new N250 packs a lot of new features
The recently launched the updated Pulsar N250 at a price of Rs 1,50,829 (ex-showroom Delhi). It comes with a ton of new features, from a traction control system to ABS modes and a new digital instrument console. We will be going over these new features and explaining them in detail here.
New Instrument Console
The first thing that stands out when looking at the features on the 2024 Bajaj Pulsar N250 is the new digital instrument console. The console works in conjunction with the Bajaj Ride Connect app to bring smartphone connectivity to the bike and also opens up new features such as Call/SMS alerts, the option to accept/reject calls and most importantly turn-by-turn navigation. The left hand side switchgear has also been reworked and a new button has been added so riders can navigate the instrument console.
Other than this, the console gives regular readouts like speed, odometer and fuel level, along with essential details such as distance-to-empty (DTE) readouts, average and instantaneous mileage. The same was also available on the previous generation Pulsar N250.
Traction Control And ABS Modes
Bajaj has also introduced a traction control system and 3 ABS modes to the bike as well, making this the first time we are seeing these two features on a Bajaj bike. The ABS modes include: Road, Rain and Off-Road. The modes change the level of ABS intervention and allows riders to tackle different riding conditions with ease.
The Rain mode has the highest level of ABS intervention and is designed with riding on wet surfaces in mind. Road mode on the other hand is a bit more balanced and is more suited to riding under normal conditions. The Off-Road mode has the least amount of ABS intervention, it doesn't cut off the rear wheel ABS but tones down the level of intervention at the rear wheel to allow it to slide a bit. Another interesting thing about the Off-Road mode is that it allows riders to turn off the traction control system.
The new traction control system, although somewhat basic (since the N250 doesn’t get a ride-by-wire throttle system), works surprisingly well by reducing the amount of power delivered when it detects the rear wheel spinning.
Lastly, the bike also saves the ABS and traction control settings that the rider has previously used. So the same settings will be present after turning the key off and switching it back on.
Other Features
The new N250 retains many of the same features as the fuel tank mounted USB port and the LED projector headlight setup at front. But what has changed is the addition of new LED turn indicators giving the new N250 full LED lighting.
Overall, the addition of these new features have made the N250 a more competitive motorcycle in its segment when compared to its rivals like the Suzuki Gixxer 250 and the KTM 250 Duke. All of this just for a small premium of Rs 851.

- Pulsar N250 : The bike of my dreamsThe Pulsar N250 is easily the best naked bike under 2 lakhs (pre-GST update). It delivers an amazing pull in the low and mid range, offers great city mileage of around 40 kmpl, and comes with fantastic brakes that stop exactly when you need them to. Its stylish and aggressive design genuinely makes you want to turn back and admire it every time. I also considered the NS200, which performs better on highways but returns lower mileage in the city. Since my primary use case is daily city riding with occasional long rides, the N250 was the perfect fit. The Pulsar N250 delivers impressive mileage with around 40 kmpl in the city and about 43 kmpl on the highway while cruising between 70 and 80 kmph. It has a strong pull in the low and mid range, a torque rich engine, and excellent brakes that give a lot of confidence. Both rider and pillion get comfortable seating and the sporty and aggressive design makes the bike stand out. The headlight throw is among the best in this segment and the suspension feels stable on highways which makes relaxed cruising very easy. Service and maintenance are also affordable. On the negative side there can be a rare wobble above 120 kmph and the handlebar may feel slightly short for some people. The rear mudguard is not very effective, the suspension feels a little stiff in the city, and the mirrors are average. The instrument cluster is also not bright enough under strong afternoon sunlight. Absolutely recommended. If you want a bike with strong pull and power, stylish and head turning looks, and something that does not put a strain on your wallet, this is the right choice. It gives good mileage, delivers a thrilling experience on highways, and can even give you goosebumps when taking curves.Read More6 1
