Bajaj Pulsar NS125 Performance Numbers Explained - Acceleration, Mileage And Braking

How peppy is the new Pulsar 125’s performance?
We were quite surprised with the launch of the Bajaj Pulsar NS125. It seemed that Bajaj was diluting the Pulsar brand with another 125cc bike. More so, it is heavier than the standard Pulsar 125 and doesn’t make that much extra power. However, the new NS125 has turned out to be quite a revelation. Here’s what the performance numbers reveal about the small NS bike:
The NS125 uses a downsized version of the NS160’s air-cooled mill. While it struggles at low revs, it is a hoot once the revs start climbing up. It is the quickest 125cc air-cooled bike that we have tested, with the liquid-cooled KTM 125s being the only two bikes faster in the 125cc space.
Since you have to wring the throttle to get it going, roll-on performance is not exactly brilliant. It is quicker than its standard Pulsar counterpart but when you want to make quick overtakes, your best solution would be to shift down a cog or two.
This is one area where we feel the NS125 needs improvement. Its disc/drum brake setup doesn’t have quite the bite that we would have liked. Plus, with no ABS, it might be a bit hairy in panic braking scenarios.
Not only is the Pulsar NS125 one of the peppiest 125s in the market, it is also one of the most frugal bikes on sale today. It is far more fuel-efficient than the standard Pulsar 125 and also matches the Hero Glamour 125 BS6 with its city scores.
