The home grown company Bajaj Auto Limited (BAL) seems to having some more plans for the 2014, apart from its awaited flagship bike Pulsar 375. Recently, two test mules resembling to the Pulsar 200NS have been spotted on the NH4 near Mahabaleshwar, which were boasting an aircooled engine like Pulsar 150 and 180. That confirms, the bikes were not 200NS, which has a liquid cooled power-train. Both the bikes were looking similar from the front, while rear of both the bikes were different from each other.
The bike sporting the rear similar to naked sport Pulsar might be the 180NS, while the other one with the rear resembling to the 150 and 180cc Pulsars might be the 150NS. The aggressive head lamp, handle bar, fuel tank and cowling on the test mules were looking almost similar to the 200NS, however both were having a regular dual stage type seat instead of a split type.
Pulsar 150NS is expected to be powered by the similar 150cc, aircooled engine, which powers the exixting one. Mated with a 5-speed gearbox, the engine is capable to churn out a maximum power of 14.8bhp and a peak torque of 12.5Nm. However, the company might retune the engine for different numbers of power output. Pulsar 180NS might also get the existing 180cc, aircooled DTS-i engine with a little modification. The existing engine churns out 16.8bhp of maximum power and 14.22Nm of the peak torque.
The bikes might be showcased at the upcoming Indian Auto Expo, however they are expected to be launched by the end of 2014.

Bajaj Pulsar 150 (2018-2026) User Reviews
- reliable daily commuter with great mileage
Needed 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.
5 1 - Value for money
Best in class performances, easy handling in city traffic, smooth, but rugged at same time, easy on pocket for maintenance, definitely serves the purpose, pickup is perfect, been riding this one since 15 years, yet minimum service cost, after sales response is also impressive, definitely male, title claimed by company feels true when you ride one.
1 2 - Bajaj is the best bike
This bike is very good. Jab baat ho Bharat ki sadkon par raj karne ki, toh ek hi naam sabke dimaag me aata hai, Bajaj Pulsar 150! Yeh sirf ek bike nahi, balki har biker ka ek jazbaat hai. Dekhne me stylish, chalane me dumdaar aur mileage me behatreen, Pulsar 150 ne har generation ke dil par apni ek alag jagah banayi hai.

12 8 - A True All-Rounder in the 150cc Segment
I chose this bike because it feels smooth and stable on highways while still offering good control in the city, even though the suspension feels slightly stiff on rough roads. It gives good mileage, looks stylish and is comfortable enough for family rides, making it a practical and reliable choice. The ride so far has been very satisfying. 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.
