Bajaj’s assault on the premium commuter market begins with the all-new Pulsar NS160. The Pulsar NS160 competes with models like the Yamaha FZ-S FI, Honda CB Hornet 160R, Suzuki Gixxer, and TVS Apache RTR 160 to draw customers searching for a practical yet fashionable commuter motorbike. Here is a summary of the five aspects of the Pulsar NS160 that stood out to us.
5 Reasons To Buy Bajaj Pulsar NS160
1. Muscular Appearance
In essence, the Pulsar NS160 has a five-year-old design. But the Pulsar NS160 still looks contemporary today, thanks to the way the Bajaj designers experimented with the matte grey. The dual-tone paint schemes, edgy headlamp, tank expansion, and an updated belly pan highlight the bike’s powerful personality, making it stand out in the crowd.
2. Comfortable Riding Position
With the Pulsar NS160’s riding position, Bajaj has achieved a wonderful mix between sportiness and comfort. Your torso is kept upright by the high clip-on handlebar, and you have a strong grip on the bike thanks to the contoured tank. The Pulsar NS160 feels like a big bike, akin to its older sibling, thanks to these and the rear-set footpegs.
3. A Nice Touch
Due to lighter wheels, slimmer forks, and standard tubeless tires, the Pulsar NS160 weighs 10 kg less than the Pulsar NS200. The outcomes are also amazing. The Pulsar NS160 is an extremely agile motorbike, ready to shift directions at a moment’s notice thanks to its lightweight front end and small profile front wheel.
4. Flat Torque Spread
A commuter motorbike rather than a sporting motorcycle would correspond to the Pulsar NS160 engine’s flat torque dispersion. This makes riding in traffic quite simple. You can slam on the gas at any time to overtake quickly. This, however, also lessens the performance’s excitement a bit. We wished the engine had more power, given the excellent suspension and brakes.
5. Swaying Engine
Driving throughout the city, the Pulsar NS160 seems fairly smooth. However, it vibrates quite a bit once the speed exceeds 5,000 Rpm. The handlebars, foot pegs, and fuel tank all have a buzzing sensation that, after a while, becomes grating. After a while, even the exhaust note produced after 5,000 Rpm sounds awful.
