Bajaj Pulsar NS160, NS200: Here’s what’s new
The biggest change to the Pulsar NS160 and 200 comes in the form of a new LED headlight and the DRLs surrounding it are in the shape of a lightning bolt. And the NS200 also gets LED illumination all around, with the indicators now being LED units and possibly the same ones seen on the Pulsar N250.
The digital dash is the same one that recently debuted on the refreshed Pulsar N150 and N160 and you can now pair your smartphone to the display to get notification alerts.
At its new asking price of Rs 1.46 lakh, the Pulsar NS160 goes up against the TVS Apache RTR 160 4V (Rs 1.24 lakh – 1.38 lakh) and the Hero Xtreme 160R 4V (Rs 1.27 lakh – Rs 1.37 lakh). Meanwhile the closest competitors of the Pulsar NS200, which now commands Rs 1.55 lakh, are the TVS Apache RTR 200 4V (Rs 1.47 lakh) and the Honda Hornet 2.0 (Rs 1.39 lakh).
