  • Superb bike in class

    6 years ago


    Nabil Siddique

    I like it's killing look which is eager to flash on roads. I feel that the price may be little overpriced but okay for 160cc bike.

    I am gonna buy one soon because bike wale have provided me enough info to move to my decision.

    Another thing what i liked was the powerful feel when you ride it. Totally amazing.

    I hope i have the correct ideas about the bike and it will return me the same feel.

    Thanks .

  • Elegant machine

    6 years ago


    Mohammed Shaffik

    I bought this bike in may of this year and this is by new bike and it is my dream to buy a bike. I am looking long for a sports bike that can suit a middle class like me so i bought this elegant machine and till date i love the ride and i am greatly satisfied by the mileage as it gives me around 42kms per litre and the one thing i love is the engine of this bike dts-i, 4 valve, 4 stroke and the fuel capacity, sorry i can't full my petrol tank since it is 12l capacity...Hahaha...And when it comes brake, little disappointment only front is disc and the back is drum and the tyre is tubeless on the whole. So from my standpoint you can buy this bike if you want cheap(sorry) sports bike...

  • My new ns 160

    6 years ago


    Simanta Boruah

    On January 15th i bought this bike. This is the most comfortable bike i have ever ride. Its features stunning look , great engine with oil cooling system , superb mileage , amazing sound ,perfect grip , smooth gearbox etc.

    I have done my first service then i saw the differences. Its gearbox is now super smooth and its provides good mileage.

    Pros.

    Engine , mileage , gearbox , bs4 engine , good handling , value for money.....

    Con's.

    Front disc break is little bit small ,

    No rear disk it's give only drum brake system ,

    Tyres are too small ,

    Battery is little bit poor.

  • If you want style with speed buy pulsar ns 160

    6 years ago


    Aniket Sen

    Bajaj auto took its time to introduce a premium 160 cc motorcycle to play in a segment which has seen increasing sales over the past few years. In fact, the premium 150-160 cc segment now claims more than one-third of the total sales of motorcycles up to 400 cc, so it became even more imperative to have a product in this sub-segment. So, it’s a case of better late than never for the bajaj pulsar ns160, even though the ns160 has been in existence for a while now, but only for bajaj’s export markets. The pulsar brand has been bajaj auto’s claim to fame, so to say. Even today, you can still see a lot many pulsars on the streets – the pulsar 135, pulsar 150, pulsar 180, pulsar 220, pulsar rs200 and the re-launched pulsar ns200. But it’s the humble bajaj pulsar 150 which commands its position as the largest-selling 150 cc motorcycle. But there was something missing – something, which re-defined the bajaj brand, like the way the first pulsars took the Indian motorcycling scene by storm nearly two decades ago.The suspension is slightly on the softer side, so the pulsar ns160 isn’t as stiffly sprung as, say the ns200, but that means it offers a more comfortable, pleasure ride and that is a bonus for the daily commute, and in-city duties. In traffic and within the city, the bike steers with precision and will certainly satisfy a lot of riders going over undulations, broken roads and the like.

  • Class Topper

    6 years ago


    Himadri Das

    First I would like to thank bajaj to bring the monstrous look of NS200 to its sibling NS160. It is the king in its class I am explaining why...I got him:) 3 months and 12 days ago from today. 2nd day after buying I understood this bike is surely an eye catcher. Let's do it easy...
    Pros: 1. Riding quality...the aggressive riding position with that perimeter frame will give you the sports bike like feeling. 2. Increased torque (14.60 Nm) do its job very nicely. If u have ridden a pulsar 150 before you can feel the extra torque quite easily. 3. Soft suspensions do a great job on these potholes filled Indian roads. 4. Underbelly muffler gives it a duke like look.
    5. Now time for technology...twin spark ignition, 4 valve intake and outlet system and oil cooling system will give u the confidence in long riding and low emission. 6. Although the headlamp is not LED its super bright in dark night. Now let's see the reason why I didn't give it the 5 star.
    Cons: 1. In highway or in high speed and rpm the gear shifting is very smooth but in low speed u can experience some issue on shifting which u can get over after some regular rides. 2. The pillion seat cushion is super hard...in bad roads it is worse. 3. It lacks a rear disk brake though it has bolt thread to set it up.4. It lacks a gear position indicator and a engine heating warning.
    5. It would be better to get the rear tyre little wider...
    Now time for comparison, I know its getting longer but it will be a full review thank you for your patient. The only bike now a days can be compared with it is...yes you guessed right CB Hornet 160R. You may think why not Gixxer but trust me its way below level and older bike for these two new Hulk. It can't match their performance. Now Hornet also is little backward than NS though it has a wider rear tyre, rear disk and 0.16Nm extra torque. 1.With the shield like headlamp, clip and wide handle bar, split sits and analogue/digital console NS do the checkmate in styling. 2.With almost 0.25bhp more power, twin spark digital ignition system and oil cooling system NS standing 1st in performance and technology. That's why I called it a class topper. Anyway guys time to sign off. Thanks again, take care.....

    Clear the chain on regular basis as its a slag catcher. You should set up an rear disk at 2nd service as in double riding it creates a lot of momentum to be handled by a rear drum.

  • Superb bike in class

    6 years ago


    Nabil Siddique

    I like it's killing look which is eager to flash on roads. I feel that the price may be little overpriced but okay for 160cc bike.

    I am gonna buy one soon because bike wale have provided me enough info to move to my decision.

    Another thing what i liked was the powerful feel when you ride it. Totally amazing.

    I hope i have the correct ideas about the bike and it will return me the same feel.

    Thanks .

    Mohammed Shaffik

    I bought this bike in may of this year and this is by new bike and it is my dream to buy a bike. I am looking long for a sports bike that can suit a middle class like me so i bought this elegant machine and till date i love the ride and i am greatly satisfied by the mileage as it gives me around 42kms per litre and the one thing i love is the engine of this bike dts-i, 4 valve, 4 stroke and the fuel capacity, sorry i can't full my petrol tank since it is 12l capacity...Hahaha...And when it comes brake, little disappointment only front is disc and the back is drum and the tyre is tubeless on the whole. So from my standpoint you can buy this bike if you want cheap(sorry) sports bike...

  • If you want style with speed buy pulsar ns 160

    6 years ago


    Aniket Sen

    Bajaj auto took its time to introduce a premium 160 cc motorcycle to play in a segment which has seen increasing sales over the past few years. In fact, the premium 150-160 cc segment now claims more than one-third of the total sales of motorcycles up to 400 cc, so it became even more imperative to have a product in this sub-segment. So, it’s a case of better late than never for the bajaj pulsar ns160, even though the ns160 has been in existence for a while now, but only for bajaj’s export markets. The pulsar brand has been bajaj auto’s claim to fame, so to say. Even today, you can still see a lot many pulsars on the streets – the pulsar 135, pulsar 150, pulsar 180, pulsar 220, pulsar rs200 and the re-launched pulsar ns200. But it’s the humble bajaj pulsar 150 which commands its position as the largest-selling 150 cc motorcycle. But there was something missing – something, which re-defined the bajaj brand, like the way the first pulsars took the Indian motorcycling scene by storm nearly two decades ago.The suspension is slightly on the softer side, so the pulsar ns160 isn’t as stiffly sprung as, say the ns200, but that means it offers a more comfortable, pleasure ride and that is a bonus for the daily commute, and in-city duties. In traffic and within the city, the bike steers with precision and will certainly satisfy a lot of riders going over undulations, broken roads and the like.

  • Class Topper

    6 years ago


    Himadri Das

    First I would like to thank bajaj to bring the monstrous look of NS200 to its sibling NS160. It is the king in its class I am explaining why...I got him:) 3 months and 12 days ago from today. 2nd day after buying I understood this bike is surely an eye catcher. Let's do it easy...
    Pros: 1. Riding quality...the aggressive riding position with that perimeter frame will give you the sports bike like feeling. 2. Increased torque (14.60 Nm) do its job very nicely. If u have ridden a pulsar 150 before you can feel the extra torque quite easily. 3. Soft suspensions do a great job on these potholes filled Indian roads. 4. Underbelly muffler gives it a duke like look.
    5. Now time for technology...twin spark ignition, 4 valve intake and outlet system and oil cooling system will give u the confidence in long riding and low emission. 6. Although the headlamp is not LED its super bright in dark night. Now let's see the reason why I didn't give it the 5 star.
    Cons: 1. In highway or in high speed and rpm the gear shifting is very smooth but in low speed u can experience some issue on shifting which u can get over after some regular rides. 2. The pillion seat cushion is super hard...in bad roads it is worse. 3. It lacks a rear disk brake though it has bolt thread to set it up.4. It lacks a gear position indicator and a engine heating warning.
    5. It would be better to get the rear tyre little wider...
    Now time for comparison, I know its getting longer but it will be a full review thank you for your patient. The only bike now a days can be compared with it is...yes you guessed right CB Hornet 160R. You may think why not Gixxer but trust me its way below level and older bike for these two new Hulk. It can't match their performance. Now Hornet also is little backward than NS though it has a wider rear tyre, rear disk and 0.16Nm extra torque. 1.With the shield like headlamp, clip and wide handle bar, split sits and analogue/digital console NS do the checkmate in styling. 2.With almost 0.25bhp more power, twin spark digital ignition system and oil cooling system NS standing 1st in performance and technology. That's why I called it a class topper. Anyway guys time to sign off. Thanks again, take care.....

    Clear the chain on regular basis as its a slag catcher. You should set up an rear disk at 2nd service as in double riding it creates a lot of momentum to be handled by a rear drum.
