Both of these bikes are released under the theme of all-new sports tech ‘unadulterated thrill’ which refers to the pure adrenaline rush that riders would experience while riding these bikes.

Pulsar N250

The Pulsar 250 design language boasts of a sharp unibody gesture with tighter proportions and a modern aerodynamic design. The muscular dynamic tank is contrasted with a sleek stylish waist section that extends to a contoured step seat, making for an eye-catching profile. It is further equipped with a sportier, throatier, and stylish exhaust in a satin grey finish. The floating body panels such as the belly pan, front fairing, and front fender along with the wider tires complete the imposing profile of the new Pulsar.

The all-new sports-tech theme brings out the ‘sculptural purity’ of the bike through a dynamic interplay of newly developed premium metalliccolorthat evokes a ‘singular first look’ at the front cowl of the bike. The eye sweeps through the aggressive, but uncluttered front fascia to the muscular tank and the integrated cowl in one look – taking in the fluid sculpture. Through a progressive lightening of tone from front to back, the new Pulsar 250 looks fresh at every glance. The tone-on-tone treatment further enhances the contours at play.

Satin black finishes to the side covers and tank-side inners contrast the metallic gloss on the tank and seat cowl. The engine covers are finished in deep copper – for an arresting view – flanked by the ‘Siberian Silver’ pivot plate and the floating belly pan.

From being the most powerful 150-cc, beating its own benchmarks with DTS-i, to the naked, adrenaline-inducing power of the NS200, the Pulsar has always been the fastest wolf in the pack. Now, in its biggest-ever avatar, the Pulsar 250 brings free-revving, unfettered power to the quarter-liter segment. The 250 cc BS6 DTS-i oil-cooled engine delivers 24.5 PS of smooth, available-through-the-band power with a peak torque of 21.5 Nm that leads to a superior pickup and elevates the signature ‘10 second adrenaline rush. Moreover, a meaty mid-range and nimble-footed handling further enhance its everyday riding performance.
