What’s New?
A 4-valve Engine With A 6-speed Gearbox
The biggest update on the Pulsar N250SS is the updated 4-valve engine that makes 25 PS and 22 Nm (0.5PS and 0.5Nm more than the N250 2V). Bajaj has also given the bike a new 6-speed gearbox, which should make it more relaxed at highway speeds.
TFT Console With Google Maps Mirroring
Another major change on the N250SS is the addition of a 5-inch TFT display, similar to its smaller sibling, the recently launched Pulsar N160 SS. The new screen gets Bluetooth connectivity, call/SMS alerts, music controls, Google Maps mirroring, and document storage.
Bidirectional Quickshifter And Updated Feature Set
The Bajaj bike now gets an Electronic Throttle Body (ETB) along with ride modes. These are offered alongside the existing ABS modes. The Pulsar N250SS also gets a bidirectional quickshifter, similar to the Pulsar NS400Z.
Other new features include adjustable clutch and front brake levers, a USB Type-C charging port, panic brake alert, a hazard switch for added convenience and safety.
4 New Colours
The N250SS is available in 4 new colours: Atlantic Blue, Brooklyn Black, Fiery Red Orange and Pearl Metallic White. These new colours have updated graphics and coloured rims, depending on the colour scheme.
What’s Unchanged?
The bike continues to ride on 17-inch wheels at both ends and gets an inverted fork along with a monoshock. Braking duties are handled by a 300 mm disc at the front with a two-piston caliper and a 240 mm disc at the rear with a single-piston caliper.
BikeDekho Says
With this new update, Bajaj has significantly updated the N250 with the new SS variant. The extra power and addition of a 6-speed gearbox should make the bike more capable on the highway, while the TFT screen and bidirectional quickshifter will enhance its appeal and everyday usability.
The closest true rival to the N250SS is the Suzuki Gixxer 250, but it’s more expensive than the Pulsar. The new Pulsar also undercuts the recently updated Hero Xtreme 250R, however, the latter gets a liquid-cooled engine and makes more power.
If you want a capable 250cc bike with decent power and modern electronics at a relatively affordable price, the Pulsar N250SS is definitely a bike you can consider. With these updates, it has become a bike worth buying this Diwali if you are planning to buy one.
Bajaj Pulsar N250 User Reviews
- Pulsar N250 - Amazing MachineI 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 More10 1
- The perfect everyday street fighterI chose this bike for eye catchy look, good mileage, good performance in reasonable price as well as an Indian brand so that parts availability is good plus most important thing it sounds very good and sporty. I face some issues regarding electronics but never about bikes performance i had done long trips in my bike no performance issues so far as well as on highway you can get good average comfortable ride. A person who wants powerful performance in city as well as highway and those who commute on daily basis it's is good for college students who's college is in city area plus a person who want good touring bike under 2 lakh and doesn't care about 120 above speed should definitely buy this bike.Read More11 9

City or highway, it is easy to ride. I feel proud when I ride it and it is worth the money.Read More8 2
- Designed for Urban RoadsI picked this bike because it gives solid mileage and feels sturdy. Needed something for daily rides that wouldn’t burn much fuel. The seat height and looks matched my comfort and taste perfectly. Engine feels refined and noise-free. Feels smooth on the road, even in traffic. Engine runs clean, gears shift well. I use it almost every day to go to college. It has not given me any trouble so far. Very reliable on both short and long routes. I’d say this bike suits anyone who rides daily. Great mileage, easy handling, and not much maintenance needed. It’s simple, affordable, and works without drama. Great for office rides and errands. Bought it for solid road presence.Read More5 5
- 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 More7 1
