Features And Hardware

The new Pulsar 150 gets a completely new design. There is a sharper-looking headlight along with LED DRLs, sporty-looking tank extensions, and also a completely new tail-light. Along with this, the brand has also given the Pulsar 150 an all-new colour LCD console for the base variant, while the top-spec variants comes with a 5-inch TFT console. Both consoles feature smartphone connectivity, turn-by-turn navigation and SMS/call alerts; however, the TFT console also gets document storage, music controls and a segment-first Google Maps mirroring. Other features include a USB Type-C charging port and a hazard light button.

Bajaj has also made significant changes underneath the new design. The Pulsar 150 gets a new frame, because of which the bike now comes equipped with a monoshock at the rear, replacing the conventional twin-shock setup. However, the motorcycle continues to use a telescopic fork at the front. It runs on 17-inch alloy wheels at both ends, with an 80-section front and a 120-section rear tyre.

An All-New Heart

After decades, Bajaj has finally given the Pulsar 150 an all-new engine. It is air/oil-cooled and makes 14 PS and 14.1 Nm (0.85 Nm more than before). The engine is paired with a 5-speed gearbox and is expected to offer a good balance of performance, refinement and everyday usability. The bike also gets a silent starter along with a switchable engine stop/start feature, which should help the bike to extract better mileage. Along with this, the brand has also given the Pulsar 150 a crawl feature, which should make riding this bike in traffic conditions quite easy.

BikeDekho Says

The Bajaj Pulsar 150 is easily the most iconic Pulsar ever, and with the new update the brand has tried to make it better than before. Bajaj has changed almost every major aspect of the motorcycle, from its design and engine to its frame, suspension and features.

The Pulsar 150 was already a strong contender in the 150cc category, but with a sharper appearance, more modern hardware and features, the new Pulsar could give Bajaj an even stronger contender than before. As of now, this Pulsar will compete with bikes like the Honda Unicorn, TVS Apache RTR 160 2V, Hero Xtreme 160R and the Yamaha FZ-S Fi.
