Which bike would you choose between the Pulsar 150 Twin Disc and the Pulsar NS 160?

A mix of a chiselled design, good fuel economy, and affordability make it one of the most sought-after motorcycles on the two-wheeler market. The bike features fresh colour schemes and versions while keeping the original design of the Pulsar 150 intact. Sapphire Black Blue, Sparkle Black Silver, and Sparkle Black Red are the four colour options for the Bajaj Pulsar 150, which comes in two variations.

It has a fuel-injected, air-cooled, single-cylinder, 149.5cc engine that complies with BS6 standards. It has a five-speed transmission and produces 13.8 horsepower and 13.4 NM of torque.

The exterior components of this model, particularly the braking, are the key areas for modification. Front and rear disc brakes with ABS technology make up the braking system. In addition to having double disc brakes, the most recent Pulsar 150 also has split seats and grab rails, a longer wheelbase, and wider and larger rear tires.

The new Pulsar 150 Twin Disc has the best-in-class 230mm rear disc brake and noticeable improvements in noise, vibration, and harshness levels.

The Pulsar NS 160 shares the innate masculine appeal of the Pulsar NS series motorbikes. It looks quite athletic and takes design string from its older sibling. It has a bright halogen headlamp up front with two pilot bulbs. The motorcycle's side profile is aggressive, with strong tank shrouds.

The 160 NS is not just strong, but also a fuel-efficient commuter. In actual riding circumstances, you can anticipate a return of about 45 km/l. In addition to Bajaj's DTS-i technology and 5-speed manual transmission, the engine has a fuel injection system.

A 160cc oil-cooled engine and single-cylinder that complies with BS6 powers the Pulsar NS 160. Maximum torque is produced by this BS6 motor at 9000 RPM and 7250 RPM, respectively. This Pulsar is a great choice for riding on city streets due to its massive amount of torque within a useful rpm range.

It is equipped with a telescopic fork up front and mono-shock absorbers at the back. The motorcycle has disc brakes at either end for braking, along with ABS as an added safety feature.

Regardless of which bike you choose to buy between the two, it ultimately depends on what you are seeking from the bike. If you want comfort and are not really into sports bikes, then the Bajaj Pulsar 150 is the best option. However, if you are looking for a sports bike with a bit of flare and a truly excellent road presence, then the Pulsar NS160 is your best bet. Both bikes are standout products in their own way.
