The hike now places the twins above the Xtreme 200S and the Yamaha FZ 25

Bajaj launched the Pulsar 250 twins last year as successors to the ageing Pulsar 220 F.
But four months into 2022, Bajaj has already hiked the prices of the N250 and F250 for the second time. So how much will the new prices pinch your pocket? Here’s a detailed list:
|
Bike |
Variant |
Revised Price |
Earlier Price |
Margin of Hike |
|
Pulsar F250 |
Caribbean Blue Racing Red Techno Grey |
Rs 1,44,979 |
Rs 1,40,915 |
Rs 4,064 |
|
Pulsar N250 |
Caribbean Blue Racing Red Techno Grey |
Rs 1,43,680 |
Rs 1,39,117 |
Rs 4,563 |
Even though the hikes were consistent across all colour variants, it’s disappointing to see them, considering that the prices were bumped in February 2022 as well. Besides, Bajaj hasn’t given any official explanation for this price hike, but we think it’s to offset the ever-increasing input costs.

This pricing now also makes the 250 twins a bit more expensive than the Yamaha FZ 25 and a fair bit more expensive than the Hero Xtreme 200S, both of which are the twins’ competitors. If you’re looking for bikes with more performance and better specs in the quarter-litre segment, you should have a look at the Suzuki Gixxer 250 and Gixxer SF 250.
User Reviews
I chose this bike for it's looks, easy spare parts availability and uniqueness on roads. This is one of the cheapest 250cc out there. It provides almost all the modern technologies like riding modes, Dual-channel ABS, Traction control, Bluetooth navigation, etc. I liked the seating posture and seat height it is very accessible to all types of riders. I like bikes having good low-end torque for effortless city riding and this machine has very good low to mid range torque so these are the reasons I chose this beautiful machine. The overall ride quality is very good. The suspension is not that stiff and you will definitely feel the adrenaline rush due to it's power. This is a very good city machine as well as capable on highways. On highways you can easily cruise at 80-100 km/h without much stress on the engine. I must say that the engine is very refined and smooth.The pickup is great and it has very good midrange performance. I am getting mileage of around 38 km/l which is decent for a 250cc. You can get mileage of 45 on highways if you cruise at a constant speed. The stability of this bike at speeds of 90-100 is decent but I am not sure about the high stability post 120 km/h. You feel the absence of a 6th gear on highways sometimes but the bike manages the gear ratios pretty well. Overall I'll say this bike has got a very punchy and refined engine. The braking is very good and the front brake response is very satisfying you will feel confident while riding this machine. The exhaust sound is very bassy and head-turning. People will definitely notice you. The pillion seat and rear suspension is a bit on stiffer side but it is good for cities. One thing I must mention is it's class-leading led projector headlights.The throw is very amazing and you will feel confidence on highways.No other bike in this segment provides such powerful headlights. So let's come to conclusion Will I recommend this bike I would say if you love bike having great low and mid range torque refined engine then you should definitely go for N250.But if you want a better highway machine having liquid looked technology and better high speed stability then you can look at NS200. Overall both the bikes have their own pros and cons and it all depends on what kind of rider you are and what you want. At last I would say you can buy N250 it will not disappoint. You will love riding it. I hope this review helps you find your perfect ride, Thanks...Read More
