The Pulsars are now safer and get a new colour scheme along with a bump in the asking price
After teasing a new colour scheme, Bajaj has launched a new variant of the 250cc Pulsars. This Bajaj Pulsar 250 variant now finally gets a dual-channel ABS, something we thought the twins missed on, back when they were launched. Along with that, the variant gets an all-black colour scheme. The contrast between the glossy and matte finishes give the bike an attractive look.
Apart from that, nothing has been changed on the two motorcycles. They still get a 250cc air-cooled, single-cylinder motor with an oil-cooler making 24.5PS and 21.5Nm. It’s mated to a 5-speed gearbox and comes with a slipper-clutch as well. Apart from LED illumination it still continues with an analogue-digital instrument console and a USB charger. The analogue dial houses the tachometer and the digital screen gets the speedometer, trip meter, time, fuel level readout and a gear position indicator.
Other underpinnings on the 250 twins include a split-tubular frame suspended on a conventional telescopic fork and a monoshock setup. Despite the inclusion of a dual-channel ABS, the bikes still come to a halt through the same 300mm front and 230mm rear disc brake. They come shod with 17-inchers on both ends with a 100-section at the front and 130-section at the rear.
While the dual-channel ABS is only available in this Brooklyn Black colour scheme, the single-channel ABS variant of the 250cc Pulsars will continue to sell in the existing colours: Racing Red, Caribbean Blue and Techno Grey.
Both the Pulsar F250 and the Pulsar Pulsar N250 carry a price tag of Rs 1,49,978 (ex-showroom Delhi) for the all-black, dual-channel ABS variant. That makes the N250 Rs 6,298 more expensive than its standard variant. On the other hand, the F250 is now Rs 4,999 more expensive than its standard variant. The increase in the asking price seems to be a fair one, given that the bikes now not only look better, but are also safer.

- 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
