    The Bajaj Pulsar 220F has been a stalwart in the Indian motorcycle market for over a decade. While it might not boast the latest technology or design, it continues to hold its ground with a compelling blend of performance, affordability, and a loyal following.
    Performance
    Equipped with a 220cc engine, the Pulsar 220F delivers a punchy performance. It's quick off the line and offers respectable acceleration. The engine's character is typically Bajaj - eager and responsive, making it an exhilarating ride for enthusiasts. However, refinement levels are average compared to more modern offerings.
    Handling
    The 220F handles confidently in most conditions. It's stable at high speeds and offers decent feedback. While it's not a corner-carving machine like dedicated sport bikes, it's competent enough for spirited riding.
    Comfort
    The riding position is upright and comfortable for long distances. The seat is adequately padded, but pillion comfort could be improved. Suspension is on the firmer side, which is ideal for enthusiastic riding but might be harsh on poor road conditions.
    Features and Design
    The Pulsar 220F's design, while dated by today's standards, still has a muscular appeal. The instrument cluster is functional but lacks modern features. The bike misses out on essential safety features like ABS, which is a significant drawback in the current market.
    Fuel Efficiency
    Fuel efficiency is a typical aspect of performance-oriented motorcycles. The 220F delivers decent mileage in city conditions, but expect figures to drop on highways.
    Verdict
    The Bajaj Pulsar 220F is a motorcycle with a strong fan base. Its performance-oriented character, coupled with its affordable price tag, makes it an attractive proposition for young riders. However, its lack of modern features and safety equipment is a significant drawback. If performance is your primary concern and you're willing to compromise on technology and safety, the 220F can still be a thrilling ride. But for those seeking a more well-rounded package, there are newer and better-equipped options available in the market.

  • A bike for muscular riders.

    Sudais Hasan

    This bike is good enough for daily commute but long rides becomes hard if you are taller than 5" 8. The Pickup is awesome and meant for souls with hard revving souls. Maintenance is very cheap as compared to other bikes in this segment. Overall spare parts cost is also very cheap as compared to TVS, Suzuki, and Yamaha.

    I purchased the Pulsar 220F in 2015, and it has proven to be an amazing bike. Riding it not only provides a thrilling experience but also elevates your taste in bikes. Despite my friends suggesting to sell it and get a new one, I've chosen to stick with it. Remarkably, it still looks and feels like new, and I've never had to spend much on maintenance. It's a low-maintenance bike that has stood the test of time, and I continue to enjoy every ride on it.

    Tips for other riders

    1. **Regular Oil Changes:** Change the engine oil at the recommended intervals (typically every 1000-1500 miles) to ensure optimal engine performance. 2. **Check Tire Pressure:** Maintain proper tire pressure to ensure a smooth ride and prolong the life of your tires. Check it regularly, especially before long rides. 3. **Brake Inspection:** Regularly inspect and replace brake pads if needed. Ensure the brake system is in good condition for your safety. 4. **Clean and Lubricate Chain:** Keep the bike chain clean and well-lubricated. A well-maintained chain improves performance and extends its life. 5. **Air Filter Maintenance:** Clean or replace the air filter as recommended in the owner's manual. A clean filter improves fuel efficiency and engine performance. 6. **Coolant Levels:** Check and maintain the coolant levels. Proper cooling is crucial for the engine's health, especially during hot weather. 7. **Inspect Lights and Indicators:** Ensure all lights and indicators are working correctly. Replace bulbs promptly if any are burnt out. 8. **Battery Health:** Check the battery terminals for corrosion and ensure it's charged. A healthy battery is essential for smooth startups. 9. **Suspension Check:** Inspect the suspension for any leaks or damage. Proper suspension ensures a comfortable ride. 10. **General Cleaning:** Keep your bike clean to prevent dirt and grime buildup. Regular cleaning also allows you to spot potential issues early. Remember: Moreover, this spirited machine has a way of playfully poking you to hit the road with excitement. It encourages a spirited drive, but a gentle reminder: resist the temptation to push the speed limits too hard. Enjoy the thrill, but always prioritize safe and responsible riding!

    You can use it for family purposes.
    It's the only sports bike under 1.8 lakh price.
    Maintenance is very easy.
    The mileage is good when compared to other 200cc bikes.
    Stylish looks, everyone will stare at you if you ride this bike in the city.
    Powerful engine, just a 2-valve SOHC engine, but still can beat other bikes in this segment.
    Using the same formula, but can easily compete with new bikes.
    Smooth handling in traffic, it doesn't feel heavy.
    As maintenance is lower, you can use it anywhere, like for touring, racing, stunts, normal use, for going to college, and you can also use it for family purposes because its pillion seat is bigger than any other sports bike.

    One of the legendary bikes you can call, When you ride a bike you can feel the power, smooth handling, awesome pickup, and good control. You'll exactly get what the rider wants. If you are buying a 220 cc bike this one is best so I recommend you to buy this bike, servicing cost is also, affordable, mileage is also good

  • A 9 years comprehensive user review.

    1 year ago


    Rajesh Barman

    I am the proud owner of the Pulsar 220F BS3 2014 model. I have done about 60000 km in this machine and man what a wonderful machine this is. True to its legacy.
    Here is my experience of owning it for about 9 years.
    1. I have test-ridden all the bikes from 150-250 cc available during 2014. Zeroed down to the 220.
    2. Riding experience was so good that it never made me feel to upgrade to date. Obviously, I will have to upgrade considering the bike's age and the market.
    3. In the looks department I wouldn't hesitate a bit to say that it aged really well. It still sells as of today. The market speaks for itself.
    4. Servicing and maintenance is the least to bother experience. The maintenance schedule as per the manufacturers' recommendation is more than enough. Even if you miss the periodic maintenance here and there, no problem the machine is built to last. I never faced any major breakdown till now remember it does not come with a kick start.
    Pros:
    1. I have taken my bike for rides too 2000 km was the longest I have done. Many short rides too. It is a gem of a bike that you can daily commute and take for rides with friends.
    2. Low maintenance and good service network. It's a bajaj.
    3. Excellent design that ages pretty well.
    4. It is the longest-selling bike in its category with no major changes. So no need to worry about the spare parts.
    5. The existing 5-speed gearing ratio is excellent for city rides. You can pick up even in 4th & 5th gear from a standstill.
    Cons:
    1. Sometimes feels like a need for 6th gear in high speed.
    2. The front fairing is a pain to disassemble. A more user-friendly bolting system would have been good.
    3. A 25bhp instead of 20bhp power would have been more viable in this machine.

Even if you miss the periodic maintenance here and there, no problem the machine is built to last. I never faced any major breakdown till now remember it does not come with a kick start.
    Pros:
    1. I have taken my bike for rides too 2000 km was the longest I have done. Many short rides too. It is a gem of a bike that you can daily commute and take for rides with friends.
    2. Low maintenance and good service network. It's a bajaj.
    3. Excellent design that ages pretty well.
    4. It is the longest-selling bike in its category with no major changes. So no need to worry about the spare parts.
    5. The existing 5-speed gearing ratio is excellent for city rides. You can pick up even in 4th & 5th gear from a standstill.
    Cons:
    1. Sometimes feels like a need for 6th gear in high speed.
    2. The front fairing is a pain to disassemble. A more user-friendly bolting system would have been good.
    3. A 25bhp instead of 20bhp power would have been more viable in this machine.

    The Bajaj Pulsar 220F has been a stalwart in the Indian motorcycle market for over a decade. While it might not boast the latest technology or design, it continues to hold its ground with a compelling blend of performance, affordability, and a loyal following.
    Performance
    Equipped with a 220cc engine, the Pulsar 220F delivers a punchy performance. It's quick off the line and offers respectable acceleration. The engine's character is typically Bajaj - eager and responsive, making it an exhilarating ride for enthusiasts. However, refinement levels are average compared to more modern offerings.
    Handling
    The 220F handles confidently in most conditions. It's stable at high speeds and offers decent feedback. While it's not a corner-carving machine like dedicated sport bikes, it's competent enough for spirited riding.
    Comfort
    The riding position is upright and comfortable for long distances. The seat is adequately padded, but pillion comfort could be improved. Suspension is on the firmer side, which is ideal for enthusiastic riding but might be harsh on poor road conditions.
    Features and Design
    The Pulsar 220F's design, while dated by today's standards, still has a muscular appeal. The instrument cluster is functional but lacks modern features. The bike misses out on essential safety features like ABS, which is a significant drawback in the current market.
    Fuel Efficiency
    Fuel efficiency is a typical aspect of performance-oriented motorcycles. The 220F delivers decent mileage in city conditions, but expect figures to drop on highways.
    Verdict
    The Bajaj Pulsar 220F is a motorcycle with a strong fan base. Its performance-oriented character, coupled with its affordable price tag, makes it an attractive proposition for young riders. However, its lack of modern features and safety equipment is a significant drawback. If performance is your primary concern and you're willing to compromise on technology and safety, the 220F can still be a thrilling ride. But for those seeking a more well-rounded package, there are newer and better-equipped options available in the market.

    This bike is good enough for daily commute but long rides becomes hard if you are taller than 5" 8. The Pickup is awesome and meant for souls with hard revving souls. Maintenance is very cheap as compared to other bikes in this segment. Overall spare parts cost is also very cheap as compared to TVS, Suzuki, and Yamaha.

    I purchased the Pulsar 220F in 2015, and it has proven to be an amazing bike. Riding it not only provides a thrilling experience but also elevates your taste in bikes. Despite my friends suggesting to sell it and get a new one, I've chosen to stick with it. Remarkably, it still looks and feels like new, and I've never had to spend much on maintenance. It's a low-maintenance bike that has stood the test of time, and I continue to enjoy every ride on it.

    Tips for other riders

    1. **Regular Oil Changes:** Change the engine oil at the recommended intervals (typically every 1000-1500 miles) to ensure optimal engine performance. 2. **Check Tire Pressure:** Maintain proper tire pressure to ensure a smooth ride and prolong the life of your tires. Check it regularly, especially before long rides. 3. **Brake Inspection:** Regularly inspect and replace brake pads if needed. Ensure the brake system is in good condition for your safety. 4. **Clean and Lubricate Chain:** Keep the bike chain clean and well-lubricated. A well-maintained chain improves performance and extends its life. 5. **Air Filter Maintenance:** Clean or replace the air filter as recommended in the owner's manual. A clean filter improves fuel efficiency and engine performance. 6. **Coolant Levels:** Check and maintain the coolant levels. Proper cooling is crucial for the engine's health, especially during hot weather. 7. **Inspect Lights and Indicators:** Ensure all lights and indicators are working correctly. Replace bulbs promptly if any are burnt out. 8. **Battery Health:** Check the battery terminals for corrosion and ensure it's charged. A healthy battery is essential for smooth startups. 9. **Suspension Check:** Inspect the suspension for any leaks or damage. Proper suspension ensures a comfortable ride. 10. **General Cleaning:** Keep your bike clean to prevent dirt and grime buildup. Regular cleaning also allows you to spot potential issues early. Remember: Moreover, this spirited machine has a way of playfully poking you to hit the road with excitement. It encourages a spirited drive, but a gentle reminder: resist the temptation to push the speed limits too hard. Enjoy the thrill, but always prioritize safe and responsible riding!

    You can use it for family purposes.
    It's the only sports bike under 1.8 lakh price.
    Maintenance is very easy.
    The mileage is good when compared to other 200cc bikes.
    Stylish looks, everyone will stare at you if you ride this bike in the city.
    Powerful engine, just a 2-valve SOHC engine, but still can beat other bikes in this segment.
    Using the same formula, but can easily compete with new bikes.
    Smooth handling in traffic, it doesn't feel heavy.
    As maintenance is lower, you can use it anywhere, like for touring, racing, stunts, normal use, for going to college, and you can also use it for family purposes because its pillion seat is bigger than any other sports bike.

  • A 9 years comprehensive user review.

    1 year ago


    Rajesh Barman

    I am the proud owner of the Pulsar 220F BS3 2014 model. I have done about 60000 km in this machine and man what a wonderful machine this is. True to its legacy.
    Here is my experience of owning it for about 9 years.
    1. I have test-ridden all the bikes from 150-250 cc available during 2014. Zeroed down to the 220.
    2. Riding experience was so good that it never made me feel to upgrade to date. Obviously, I will have to upgrade considering the bike's age and the market.
    3. In the looks department I wouldn't hesitate a bit to say that it aged really well. It still sells as of today. The market speaks for itself.
    4. Servicing and maintenance is the least to bother experience. The maintenance schedule as per the manufacturers' recommendation is more than enough. Even if you miss the periodic maintenance here and there, no problem the machine is built to last. I never faced any major breakdown till now remember it does not come with a kick start.
    Pros:
    1. I have taken my bike for rides too 2000 km was the longest I have done. Many short rides too. It is a gem of a bike that you can daily commute and take for rides with friends.
    2. Low maintenance and good service network. It's a bajaj.
    3. Excellent design that ages pretty well.
    4. It is the longest-selling bike in its category with no major changes. So no need to worry about the spare parts.
    5. The existing 5-speed gearing ratio is excellent for city rides. You can pick up even in 4th & 5th gear from a standstill.
    Cons:
    1. Sometimes feels like a need for 6th gear in high speed.
    2. The front fairing is a pain to disassemble. A more user-friendly bolting system would have been good.
    3. A 25bhp instead of 20bhp power would have been more viable in this machine.

    I am the proud owner of the Pulsar 220F BS3 2014 model. I have done about 60000 km in this machine and man what a wonderful machine this is. True to its legacy.
    Here is my experience of owning it for about 9 years.
    1. I have test-ridden all the bikes from 150-250 cc available during 2014. Zeroed down to the 220.
    2. Riding experience was so good that it never made me feel to upgrade to date. Obviously, I will have to upgrade considering the bike's age and the market.
    3. In the looks department I wouldn't hesitate a bit to say that it aged really well. It still sells as of today. The market speaks for itself.
    4. Servicing and maintenance is the least to bother experience. The maintenance schedule as per the manufacturers' recommendation is more than enough. Even if you miss the periodic maintenance here and there, no problem the machine is built to last. I never faced any major breakdown till now remember it does not come with a kick start.
    Pros:
    1. I have taken my bike for rides too 2000 km was the longest I have done. Many short rides too. It is a gem of a bike that you can daily commute and take for rides with friends.
    2. Low maintenance and good service network. It's a bajaj.
    3. Excellent design that ages pretty well.
    4. It is the longest-selling bike in its category with no major changes. So no need to worry about the spare parts.
    5. The existing 5-speed gearing ratio is excellent for city rides. You can pick up even in 4th & 5th gear from a standstill.
    Cons:
    1. Sometimes feels like a need for 6th gear in high speed.
    2. The front fairing is a pain to disassemble. A more user-friendly bolting system would have been good.
    3. A 25bhp instead of 20bhp power would have been more viable in this machine.

    Tips for other riders

    This bike can survive in bare minimum maintenance and Bajaj Engine oil. Rest is your choice if you want to go premium.
