About the Reviewer
Ridden for (If Owned) | 15000+ km |
Got mileage of | 43 kmpl |
Read carefully before purchase Bajaj pulsar 180 is one of the few bikes in this range which is available in the market.I used this bike for 43000 kms in pune within & out of city both and in all riding conditions (ideal as well as rough). The bike normally fetches an average of 43 kms/ltr. Technically this bike was above all when purchased in 2012 the pros are1) unmatched torque of the bike as compared to its competitors from 150-200cc engines. 2) smooth driving experience, good brakes 3) high speed i could manage 113 kms/hr (depends upon road and conditions but this speed is not recommended)4) nice looks and perfect feel of a muscular bike 5) average maintenance costs 6) digital speedometer, fuel indicator and km indicator. Cons : 1) slips at occasions as the company fitted zapper tyre was a disaster. Changed to ceat tyres and then skidding was under control 2) slightly heavier hence becomes uncontrollable considering the pickup, power of engine and breaking system.3) pillion seat is sightly higher which makes old age people difficult to drive with you 4) no mud flap as compared to its younger brother pulsar 150 which makes it dirty in rainy season for the rear seated person. (no option to fit it from outside dealer too)5) major observations by majority pulsar owners (220, 150 & 180) the body posture and the handle bar tends to aching shoulders after a long drive. This review is written not on first day hence has no emotions in it to give 5 stars or 1 star. All practical issues are discussed here after 6 years of regular driving summing the kms to 40000 + .Out of all 1+ for performance, 1+ for looks & features, 1+ for maintenance & overall costs, 1- for safety (tyre), 1- for body posture and muddy back seat in rainy seasons.These kinds of pros and cons will be available in each and every bike hence its upto your pocket and liking whether to opt and which to opt. Just drive safe and enjoy riding with full enjoyment.

This is a very good bike for long routes. I enjoy a lot while going to my village. I don't feel too tired. My village is 400 km away. I go there once a month and the journey back is 800 kms. I never had any problem, even if I keep it parked for a long time, there is no problem in starting it, it is a very good experience

It was a great buying experience and has great ride satisfaction driving the Bajaj Pulsar 180 Dts-i. I would like to recommend every bike enthusiast to at least try this bike once in their lifetime. I hope this feedback helps the connoisseurs of bike lovers all over the country. The Journey from purchasing the bike to its end destination has been a fulfilling one.

Pulsar 180 - Not Visible, But ALIVE!
1 year ago
Debanshu Guha Roy
This was my first bike, bought in my first job to commute a daily distance of 20 km (one-way). I had planned to book a Blue Pulsar 180 CC but when I saw a Red bike in the dealer's stock I was awestruck. I changed my mind and booked it that very day, despite being told that Red would take time since there were many buyers on the waiting list. Soon after I received the bike along with my daily errands and commute, I occasionally took it for long rides. Since it is one of the earlier versions of Pulsar, it has the on-demand power that one expects from a bike that big and nimble (for that time).Even now after over 15 years of sparingly using it (since I moved to Bangalore from Chennai), it still thrills just the same. Technologically bikes have evolved but this bike will remain my favourite. I am now unable to use it as frequently and want to give it away with a heavy heart to avoid it from getting spoilt parked for too long. Servicing and maintenance have been economical, with no concerns whatsoever. The bike, however, is a powerful commuter, with a sporty design that makes the rider want to twist into the higher RPMs giving you the pleasure of the wind hitting past you but on longer rides (>100Kms) can cause a sore back and neck.

World is created by almighty its awesome to ride pulsar180

It was confusing to buy a 180 cc pulsar, but when I started using the bike it was awesome to sit on the bike. Recommend all to go for this bike. Looks very less maintenance, has a very classy look & pickup is awesome. Each part is made with hearts, and the ride will surely blow your mind. Craziest bike.

Trust comes with care
2 years ago
Ajay Soni
From buying to till now, I would say "you care about your bike, the bike will care for you".Care is timely service, always keep the bike neat and clean. It's been more than 6 years, never faced any issues or problems while riding. One of my trusted vehicles. Long drive, daily commute, any weather, wet roads, traffic jam, blocked road etc. Your care converts into trust. Never gives to a situation where you feel disappointed.

Buying experience was good-jayakrishna bajaj., coimbatore. Riding experience-smooth on highways.Sporty look and throttle performance. Servicing average in showrooms hence continued with unauthorized bajaj workshop. Pros-good pricing at 180 segment, sporty look, low maintenance, average mileage, Cons- need to work on suspension.Gear shifting rod in sporty style- engine vibration.

Me with mr 180
4 years ago
Manuel Kenath Paul
I brought this guy (dont mind i refer my bike`s that way always) bajaj pulsar 180 dtsi (blue/black version) after trading my old yamaha libero in the year 2009... He stayed with me till the end of 2018 with about 28k clocked km`s on odo...During this period he gave me one fo the wonderful drives even in challenging conditions...> buying experience was great as i was upgrading myself from 109cc to a 180cc, i walked in looking for a 200cc stud whereas i don't know (like filmy style) saw this model parked in entrance of showroom and somehow settled down to this guy and straight away went for it...> few 400+km round trips were really crazy and trust me he never stopped for anything and anywhere (punctures,engine issues other blah blah)> few things i felt gross during these years were - tank getting loaded with water as the drain hole kept clogging every year during rain and i had to throw out litres n litres of petrol due to this...> the stock handle bar was a pain imagine it used to bend/ give up whenever we were to adjust and pull my bike out of parking.> considering the usage being lowest for such huge span.. I wasn't bored to spend on him for all these nibbles, he got 3 paint jobs done ,got himself a sturdy split handlebar, tank extenders, and customized engine fairy/cover done for himself... > again as i said he owned me so i was not really bothered to take care of him for service breaks,spares n all..> he still churned out really good mileage between 33-38km/litre all thru his life (i.E almost 10 years) even when we regularly cruised at an avg of 40-60km/hr speed inside city which we rode for maximum period. I have migrated to the much minnow suzuki access 125 now (imagine married guys fate) but whenever i see these latest big boys on road i always miss him to the core...I have narrated the entire package in my ways and sincere apologies for any typo error n slag.

1. Bought this bike in 2013. It costed around 87K on road then.2. I used this bike for commuting, touring, everything. Till now covered 60000 km and still running. 3. Looks never got old. 180 & 220 are the heartthrob before R15 & Duke came in. Color still shines. 127 top speed achieved. 4. Maintenance cost 500-1000 per service. (unless service centers try to loot your entire money). Changing oil in 3-4K interval is needed. Parts need to be changed rarely. I've got my tires changed every 20000 km. 5. Pros- Enough powerful for that much cost. Good mileage 35-40 kmpl. Low maintenance. Pretty comfortable for any ride. Good horn (I love the twin sound). Cons- braking (for older models. Now it has improved a lot with ABS & rear disc). Lighting is very poor (now we can get 180F for higher price which got better headlamps). Main stand touches every speed breakers.

Tips for other riders
Do not keep it open in rain or dew. Always park in shade, under roof or cover with plastic cover. Lube the chain and keep it moderately stretched regularly. Service doesn't need more than just changing oil, cleaning air filters & carburetor, so don't underestimate it. Do it every 3-4K km. Though it has got tubeless tires but pressure check is necessary twice or thrice a month.

Unbeatable capacity
5 years ago
Sanjay
It's cost so high for poor people range. Having high capacity but their fuel tank shape not good.This is a low mileage bike. If companies change in the shape of this bike fuel tank otherwise accidentally problem occurs many times. It's new model catchy and undesirable in comparison of pulsar 150. All is well.

Unbeatable capacity
5 years ago
Sanjay
It's cost so high for poor people range. Having high capacity but their fuel tank shape not good.This is a low mileage bike. If companies change in the shape of this bike fuel tank otherwise accidentally problem occurs many times. It's new model catchy and undesirable in comparison of pulsar 150. All is well.

Most powerful bike
1 week ago
Mosin
This is a very good bike for long routes. I enjoy a lot while going to my village. I don't feel too tired. My village is 400 km away. I go there once a month and the journey back is 800 kms. I never had any problem, even if I keep it parked for a long time, there is no problem in starting it, it is a very good experience

Pulsar 180 - Not Visible, But ALIVE!
1 year ago
Debanshu Guha Roy
This was my first bike, bought in my first job to commute a daily distance of 20 km (one-way). I had planned to book a Blue Pulsar 180 CC but when I saw a Red bike in the dealer's stock I was awestruck. I changed my mind and booked it that very day, despite being told that Red would take time since there were many buyers on the waiting list. Soon after I received the bike along with my daily errands and commute, I occasionally took it for long rides. Since it is one of the earlier versions of Pulsar, it has the on-demand power that one expects from a bike that big and nimble (for that time).Even now after over 15 years of sparingly using it (since I moved to Bangalore from Chennai), it still thrills just the same. Technologically bikes have evolved but this bike will remain my favourite. I am now unable to use it as frequently and want to give it away with a heavy heart to avoid it from getting spoilt parked for too long. Servicing and maintenance have been economical, with no concerns whatsoever. The bike, however, is a powerful commuter, with a sporty design that makes the rider want to twist into the higher RPMs giving you the pleasure of the wind hitting past you but on longer rides (>100Kms) can cause a sore back and neck.

World is created by almighty its awesome to ride pulsar180
1 year ago
Kiran Kumar Sh
It was confusing to buy a 180 cc pulsar, but when I started using the bike it was awesome to sit on the bike. Recommend all to go for this bike. Looks very less maintenance, has a very classy look & pickup is awesome. Each part is made with hearts, and the ride will surely blow your mind. Craziest bike.

Trust comes with care
2 years ago
Ajay Soni
From buying to till now, I would say "you care about your bike, the bike will care for you".Care is timely service, always keep the bike neat and clean. It's been more than 6 years, never faced any issues or problems while riding. One of my trusted vehicles. Long drive, daily commute, any weather, wet roads, traffic jam, blocked road etc. Your care converts into trust. Never gives to a situation where you feel disappointed.

Buying experience was good-jayakrishna bajaj., coimbatore. Riding experience-smooth on highways.Sporty look and throttle performance. Servicing average in showrooms hence continued with unauthorized bajaj workshop. Pros-good pricing at 180 segment, sporty look, low maintenance, average mileage, Cons- need to work on suspension.Gear shifting rod in sporty style- engine vibration.

Me with mr 180
4 years ago
Manuel Kenath Paul
I brought this guy (dont mind i refer my bike`s that way always) bajaj pulsar 180 dtsi (blue/black version) after trading my old yamaha libero in the year 2009... He stayed with me till the end of 2018 with about 28k clocked km`s on odo...During this period he gave me one fo the wonderful drives even in challenging conditions...> buying experience was great as i was upgrading myself from 109cc to a 180cc, i walked in looking for a 200cc stud whereas i don't know (like filmy style) saw this model parked in entrance of showroom and somehow settled down to this guy and straight away went for it...> few 400+km round trips were really crazy and trust me he never stopped for anything and anywhere (punctures,engine issues other blah blah)> few things i felt gross during these years were - tank getting loaded with water as the drain hole kept clogging every year during rain and i had to throw out litres n litres of petrol due to this...> the stock handle bar was a pain imagine it used to bend/ give up whenever we were to adjust and pull my bike out of parking.> considering the usage being lowest for such huge span.. I wasn't bored to spend on him for all these nibbles, he got 3 paint jobs done ,got himself a sturdy split handlebar, tank extenders, and customized engine fairy/cover done for himself... > again as i said he owned me so i was not really bothered to take care of him for service breaks,spares n all..> he still churned out really good mileage between 33-38km/litre all thru his life (i.E almost 10 years) even when we regularly cruised at an avg of 40-60km/hr speed inside city which we rode for maximum period. I have migrated to the much minnow suzuki access 125 now (imagine married guys fate) but whenever i see these latest big boys on road i always miss him to the core...I have narrated the entire package in my ways and sincere apologies for any typo error n slag.

Old is Gold

1. Bought this bike in 2013. It costed around 87K on road then.2. I used this bike for commuting, touring, everything. Till now covered 60000 km and still running. 3. Looks never got old. 180 & 220 are the heartthrob before R15 & Duke came in. Color still shines. 127 top speed achieved. 4. Maintenance cost 500-1000 per service. (unless service centers try to loot your entire money). Changing oil in 3-4K interval is needed. Parts need to be changed rarely. I've got my tires changed every 20000 km. 5. Pros- Enough powerful for that much cost. Good mileage 35-40 kmpl. Low maintenance. Pretty comfortable for any ride. Good horn (I love the twin sound). Cons- braking (for older models. Now it has improved a lot with ABS & rear disc). Lighting is very poor (now we can get 180F for higher price which got better headlamps). Main stand touches every speed breakers.

Tips for other riders
Do not keep it open in rain or dew. Always park in shade, under roof or cover with plastic cover. Lube the chain and keep it moderately stretched regularly. Service doesn't need more than just changing oil, cleaning air filters & carburetor, so don't underestimate it. Do it every 3-4K km. Though it has got tubeless tires but pressure check is necessary twice or thrice a month.
