Pune, India, 3rd May '24: Bajaj Auto, the world's most valuable two-wheeler and three-wheeler company, launched the highly anticipated Pulsar NS400Z today.

The Pulsar NS series has gone from strength to strength, with the entire NS range (the NS125, NS160, and NS200) getting an exciting reboot in March 2023, upgraded with a new LED headlamp, digital instrument console, and Bluetooth connectivity. With the launch of the Pulsar NS400Z, Bajaj Auto has added the flagship model to the Pulsar line-up.

The Most Stylish Pulsar Ever - An Evolving Legacy.

Premium touches include Champagne Gold USD forks and carbon fiber graphics. The sleek 'NS400' callout on the bikini fairing and sporty tail section with underbelly exhaust complete a visually stunning, aerodynamic package.

The Fastest Pulsar Ever - Untamed Performance Unleashed.

The all-new Pulsar NS400Z isn't just about heritage; it's a performance pioneer. As the biggest Pulsar ever, the NS400Z packs a serious punch with its 373.27cc engine, cranking out 40 PS and 35 Nm of torque.

The Most Thrilling Pulsar Ever - Access to Advanced Rider Aids.

The NS400Z boasts ride-by-wire technology for precise throttle response and smoother handling. Ride modes and a slipper clutch for effortless gear changes allow for smoother acceleration and deceleration, improving overall control and elevating rider confidence.

The Most Versatile Pulsar Ever - Ride Modes for Different Riding Conditions.

The Pulsar NS400Z augments rider capability with its advanced ride modes. The NS400Z adapts to any ride with dedicated modes: Road (smooth acceleration, stable ABS for daily use), Rain (limited power, conservative ABS for wet roads), Sport (heightened throttle, maximum stopping power for spirited riding), and Off-road (optimized low-end torque, controlled braking for rough terrain).

The Most Loaded Pulsar Ever - Loaded with Tech for the Ultimate Ride Experience.

The Pulsar NS400Z boasts cutting-edge technology for an exhilarating ride. Advanced 43mm USD forks and Ride-by-Wire with smart 4-way switches, ensure peak performance and control. LED projector headlights with DRLs provide exceptional visibility, complemented by a full suite of LED taillights, blinkers, and hazard lights.

Beyond a motorcycle, the NS400Z offers a connected experience. Bluetooth connectivity pairs with smartphones for features like turn-by-turn navigation and music control, enhancing rider focus and enjoyment.

The Most Precise Pulsar Ever - Safety First.

Uncompromising on rider safety, the NS400Z possesses a comprehensive suite of braking and control features. Dual-channel ABS with Combined ABS technology ensures exceptional stopping power and prevents wheel lock-up under various riding conditions. Switchable Electronic Traction Control (ETC) further enhances grip in Sport and Off-road modes, empowering riders with greater control.

Adjustable levers (five steps) and large disc brakes (320mm front, 230mm rear) provide a comfortable and responsive feel. Wide tires (110/70-17 front, 140/70 R17 rear) optimize grip and handling. The long 1344mm wheelbase contributes to agile maneuvering, allowing riders to attack corners confidently. The Hydroformed tubular Streetfighter handlebar delivers performance with reduced vibration (NVH), increases stiffness for precise control, and has an aesthetically pleasing design, that complements the NS400Z's overall look and feel.
