Bajaj Pulsar NS 125
With this bike, Bajaj guarantees one can't say no to a long road trip. The NS125, a "sporty commuter," attempts to compete with similar 125cc motorcycles.
It's not like other travel bikes, but it's also not priced like one, so, at least in terms of pricing, it's right in the middle of the pack. Has Bajaj succeeded in creating a sporty commuter that fulfils the traveler’s needs? Let's find out!
Look and Feel:
The Bajaj NS125's bodywork and appearance are not distinctive. Aside from the enhanced label and livery, it resembles its older sibling, the NS160, quite a bit. Still, this bike turns heads with its metallic body and glossy paint. In addition, the combination of the Infinity twin-strip LED tail lamp and the wolf-eyed headlamp creates a striking look. The dimensions of this 125cc travel bike have slightly lower proportions than its older sibling, the NS160, measuring 2012mm in length, 805mm in height, along with 810mm in width.
The Power-House:
A 125.45cc single-cylinder bike engine equipped with 11.6bhp and 11Nm of torque powers the machine. The 125cc engine is only air-cooled, in contrast to its older, oil-cooled sibling, and is paired with a five-speed manual transmission. Additionally, Bajaj installed an e-carburetor on the bike instead of a fuel injection system. As a result, the Bajaj Pulsar NS125's mileage can reach up to 45 km/l when driven effectively.
Handling:
The Pulsar NS125 gains a 240mm disc for its front brakes but loses out and receives a drum for its rear brakes. The motorcycle has telescopic forks up front along with an adjustable mono-shock suspension in the back.
Display Screen:
This 125cc motorcycle has an LCD speedometer and a hybrid digital/analogue display. However, it receives an LED makeover, and the headlight display even has a DRL arrangement.
