    I bought this beast in 2017, unfortunately that time it was not came with abs .I used this bike for multiple purpose such as touring, city riding , and sometimes for drag race and believe me none of the time it disappoints me.Servicing and maintenance is also cheap.. (within 1000 )It also have some cons....1) chain drive get loose in every 200km(bajaj vintage problem)2) not much mileage in city ride.

  • Personal advice to buy ns 200

    5 years ago


    Charan

    Many people review bikes, i don't know how to do that but i would like to share my 5 years of exp, with my bajaj ns200, i call it bumbleb. When i was studding mba my dream was to own a bike, i mean who's not. Earlier i used to ride my papas super splendor. I live in khandala, not a lonavla-khandala, it's on the way to mahabaleshwar, just before a khambataki mountain pass. My college was in pune, so the distance is 60km, so 120km of daily commute. I was a big fan of ktm duke 200,newly launched but problem was that they had limited showrooms and i was unable to find one for me in our area. I thought bajaj distributes ktm bikes so i visited nearest bajaj showroom, asked for ktm and they introduced me this black beast ns200, my papa insisted me to buy that one, but my mind was still on duke...And somehow that sales guy and papa convinced me to buy... Thats what append with sam in transformers when he first meet his bumbleb and was not so excited very much.... To be continued...1.Buying exp - finally bobby (a sales person) sold me that bumbleb on 2nd day, bajaj guys are very nice and supportive till date so sales and after sales service both are bang on for me. And my rest of the journey begun. Till date didn't ride ns200 nor any other bike in same class with a sporty sitting posture. I used to ride only 60-70km/h. On third day i took my bike to the college with my friend nikhil. Naked sport or a street bikes were not much popular 5 years back as of now so i didn't get major attention to the bike which i could had gathered with orange ktm so was still unhappy... To be continued 3.Riding exp. - i don't know its a superstition or truth, some of my friends told me not to ride bike above 70km/h speed till it crosses atleast 3000km, so i followed the tradition to keep avg speed of 80-90km/h, cos bike has a 6 speed gear box it stalls at lower rpm's and i was irritating to shift down everytime at low speeds, i was getting adapted to the riding skills which are required to ride these kind of heavy bhp machines. One day nikhil and me were going to college as a daily commuter, we were busy in our talk and suddenly one r15 squid passed with very high speed. Nikhil simply asked me in a joke that weather i can catch them or not, i said let's try it out, i dropped a gear... Pulled a throttle and o boy... My daily commuter transformed into a race machine.... I crossed 120km/h... 135km/h...148km/h... I was still looking for r15 guys and they were still struggling to cope up . . . That feeling was so prod full . . . After that day i started loving my bike like crazy . . . After completing mba i used my bike for job...Weekend rides...Off road rides...Heavy rain...Deep potholes...To race with squids...Sometimes with semi pro riders...And believe me it never lets me down in any ride...To be continued...4.Looks,performance- looks like a bull from front side...Very aggressive... Very compact from back side... Petal disks add more beauty, there is very much room for graphics . . . Speedometer is nice, performance is balanced, commute or race it does its job pretty well ... It does justice to naked sports category...To be continued 5.Servicing and maintenance - service cost is very less, just 1000-1200 bucks, i have just changed chain sprocket once, treys once, break pads twice, clutch cable once in 65000km... Mileage is very good at around 38-40km for mixed ride conditions i.E city+highway at a speed of 90-120km/h and it is constant for all 5 years, no drop in mileage. 6.Pros - for me speed, comfortable riding position, mileage and a maintenance cost 7.Cons - slight power lag in recent 2018 rides, wind blast, seat is very hard, specially in summer, chain looses frequently, can be seen in all bajaj bikes.8.Conclusion - this is my first bike and it's like a wife, the more you spend time with her more you know her, in first glance u may dislike her but day after day she will amaze u with her skills.... Love for ever... M not going to sell my bike.

    Good look with high performance bike . But high maintenance required specially in gear and chains. Will not get any problems while long tours. off road bike need more improvement. Bike and road gap is too less. It will get impacted with each road blockers. Spring used in bike i think need to improve to avoid any impact. Compare to other available bike in 100k budget i think ns 200 is the best in overall performance.

  • The perfect all rounder.

    3 years ago


    Pulkit Vasnani

    We bought the bike 3 years ago and the showroom was very helpful and kind and insightful. The bike has been a bliss to ride ever since it came out of the showroom. The 200cc engine is very responsive to throttle, yet it is very tame and is perfect for a beginner rider. Have completed over 12,000 kilometers on the motorcycle, with primary use being commuting to and from college, with occasional weekend rides. It's looks are honestly one of the best looking in its segment, looks very muscular and curvy, I have purchased the white color and honestly it is gorgeous. We have installed a couple of modifications, like bar end mirrors, and hazard lights. The handling on the motorcycle is very smooth and controlled, and the power delivery is just perfect. It has a liquid cooling system which is just amazing and so helpful in traffic as the engine doesn't heat up too much and cools down relatively fast. Maneuvering and cornering on this motorcycle is also very fun and feels safe when we do so. The first 3 services were free and after that regular service every 6 months was done and the experience was good enough. Extra parts of the motorcycle were not available at the time of its initial (bs iv) release but now it's parts are in stock and can be purchased at reasonable price. Regular monthly washes, and driving the bike safely will not warrant any issues in it, but if it's not maintained and is driven rash expect loss of torque and vibrations on the contact points of your bike. The motorcycle is really good and there is an option of abs too. I don't believe there are any cons other than the vibrations which are the lowest in its segment, because the engine is very refined and reliable. The clip on handle bars are also a plus, as they give an aggressive look to the motorcycle but are also very comfortable. Definitely recommend a test drive of this motorcycle because it's a top pick in its segment.

  • Style over speed.

    1 year ago


    Ameya Pasare

    In 2012, when it was at its best and still relatively unknown to the riding community, we purchased a pulsar ns 200 bs3 variant. I use this bike for my daily commute. Great power delivery and good stability, and is worth buying a bike. The looks of this bike are really nice and have caught everyone's attention to date. Perfect 200-cc bike for daily commutes, long rides, and touring. It requires time-to-time servicing because it is a machine with low maintenance costs. Its main pros are that, unlike other bikes, this bike is perfect for daily commutes because of its ride height and seating position, making a rider comfortable and a pillion rider too. But its cons are that the bike is quite a heavy machine if this bike falls, it is very difficult to lift it up. But overall, this bike is like an all-rounder.

  • Lean and mean street fighter

    1 year ago


    Rohan

    1. The buying experience was hassle-free. had to wait for 3 days for the cocktail wine red variant.
    2. When it comes to riding experience this motorcycle is easy to maneuver in city traffic and due to USD forks handling has been improved.
    3. The main reason I considered buying this motorcycle is because of the performance. Once crossing 5k RPM you'll feel the power of this motorcycle.
    4. Maintenance is very affordable as Bajaj accessories are cheaper and have wide service network.
    Pros:
    1. High-revving engine with good top-end punch
    2. Braking has good bite with dual-channel ABS
    3. Handling of the motorcycle
    Cons:
    1. The seat is on the firmer side.
    2. The fit and finish of the motorcycle need to be improved.
    Verdict:
    If you are looking for a motorcycle under 2L with good performance then this is the best motorcycle. If you want more features then go with Apache RTR 200 or if you are looking for a calm and comfortable motorcycle go with Yamaha FZS-25.

    Do not ride motorcycle harshly till the first service atleast, and do not redline the motorcycle till 2k kms. Lube the chain every 500 kms and clean the chain and sprocket every 1000 kms.

  • Review of crazy bike after 5000km

    48 weeks ago


    Ravikiran Kaniti

    This bike looks extremely gorgeous
    It would be difficult to explain the performance of the 199.5cc engine in the review
    My first service took me about 1080 rupees.
    The sound of this beast was crazy. I ride my bike when there are a group of girls. Literally, they ran away
    Abs working amazing it brings me confidence that I can handle my bike at a higher speed
    USD suspension gives me more stability
    The speed I achieved on this beast was 146kmph. There is no vibration even at 146kmph speed
    My overall experience is amazing. It even looks gorgeous if they give modern features like Bluetooth connectivity and more.

  • Bajaj Pulsar NS 200

    22 weeks ago


    Dhanush

    Design and Build Quality
    The NS200 sports an aggressive and muscular design that immediately stands out. Its sharp lines, edgy tank shrouds, and aerodynamic profile make it visually appealing. The dual-tone color schemes add to its contemporary look. The build quality feels robust, with high-quality plastic and metal components ensuring durability.
    Engine and Performance
    The heart of the NS200 is its 199.5cc, liquid-cooled, single-cylinder engine, which delivers an impressive 24.13 PS of power at 9,750 rpm and 18.5 Nm of torque at 8,000 rpm. The Triple Spark technology enhances combustion efficiency, resulting in a lively performance. The engine is paired with a 6-speed gearbox, offering smooth and precise shifts. The bike accelerates briskly, reaching 0-60 km/h in under 4 seconds, making it one of the quickest in its class.
    Ride and Handling
    The NS200 is built on a perimeter frame, which provides excellent stability and handling. The front telescopic forks and rear mono-shock suspension are well-tuned, offering a good balance between comfort and sportiness. The bike handles corners with confidence, and the MRF tires provide ample grip. The upright riding posture, along with a well-cushioned seat, ensures comfort over long rides.
    Braking and Safety
    Equipped with a single-channel ABS, the NS200 features a 300mm front disc and a 230mm rear disc, delivering strong and progressive braking performance. The ABS system prevents wheel lock-up during hard braking, enhancing rider safety.
    Features
    The NS200 comes loaded with features such as an underbelly exhaust, digital-analog instrument cluster, backlit switchgear, and LED tail lamp. The instrument cluster provides comprehensive information including a speedometer, tachometer, trip meter, fuel gauge, and clock.
    Fuel Efficiency
    Despite its sporty performance, the NS200 manages a respectable fuel efficiency of around 35-40 km/l, depending on riding conditions. The 12-liter fuel tank provides a decent range for both city commutes and weekend rides.
    Pros and Cons
    Pros:
    • Powerful and responsive engine
    • Sporty design and aggressive styling
    • Excellent handling and stability
    • Good braking performance with ABS
    • Feature-rich package
    Cons:
    • Absence of a dual-channel ABS
    • Slightly firm suspension setup for city rides
    • Limited pillion comfort due to the stepped
    seat design
    Verdict
    The Bajaj Pulsar NS200 stands out as a well-rounded package, offering a blend of performance, style, and practicality. It's an ideal choice for young riders and enthusiasts looking for a versatile bike that excels in daily commuting and spirited riding. Its competitive pricing further strengthens its appeal, making it one of the best options in the 200cc segment.
    This review highlights the strengths and potential drawbacks of the NS200, providing a balanced perspective that could resonate well with readers and contest judges alike.

    Tips for other riders

    1. Regular Maintenance • Service Schedule: Follow the manufacturer- recommended service schedule religiously. Regular oil changes, filter cleanings, and spark plug checks are crucial for maintaining engine health. • Chain Maintenance: Regularly clean and lubricate the chain. A well-maintained chain ensures smooth power delivery and extends the chain and sprocket life. • Coolant Check: Since the NS200 is liquid- cooled, regularly check and maintain the coolant level to prevent overheating. 2. Riding Techniques • Smooth Throttle Control: The NS200 has a responsive engine. Smooth throttle inputs will help you control the bike better, especially in traffic and cornering. • Gear Shifts: Use the 6-speed gearbox efficiently by shifting at the right RPMs. Avoid lugging the engine at low RPMs in higher gears or revving too high unnecessarily. 3. Tire Care • Pressure: Keep an eye on the tyre pressure. Incorrect tyre pressure can affect the handling and fuel efficiency. • Tread Depth: Regularly check the tyre tread depth. Replace tyres that are worn out to ensure optimal grip and safety.

  • Best in the segment.

    3 years ago


    Kaushik

    I've always loved the look of this bike. No bike can match the looks of ns 200. Maintenance cost is also very less. I've had only ns on mind and didn't even think about buying other bike. Even though it didn't get much changes in the bs-6 addition, power is what matters the most for me. I will always love riding this bike.

The clip on handle bars are also a plus, as they give an aggressive look to the motorcycle but are also very comfortable. Definitely recommend a test drive of this motorcycle because it's a top pick in its segment.

  • Style over speed.

    Ameya Pasare

    In 2012, when it was at its best and still relatively unknown to the riding community, we purchased a pulsar ns 200 bs3 variant. I use this bike for my daily commute. Great power delivery and good stability, and is worth buying a bike. The looks of this bike are really nice and have caught everyone's attention to date. Perfect 200-cc bike for daily commutes, long rides, and touring. It requires time-to-time servicing because it is a machine with low maintenance costs. Its main pros are that, unlike other bikes, this bike is perfect for daily commutes because of its ride height and seating position, making a rider comfortable and a pillion rider too. But its cons are that the bike is quite a heavy machine if this bike falls, it is very difficult to lift it up. But overall, this bike is like an all-rounder.

    1. The buying experience was hassle-free. had to wait for 3 days for the cocktail wine red variant.
    2. When it comes to riding experience this motorcycle is easy to maneuver in city traffic and due to USD forks handling has been improved.
    3. The main reason I considered buying this motorcycle is because of the performance. Once crossing 5k RPM you'll feel the power of this motorcycle.
    4. Maintenance is very affordable as Bajaj accessories are cheaper and have wide service network.
    Pros:
    1. High-revving engine with good top-end punch
    2. Braking has good bite with dual-channel ABS
    3. Handling of the motorcycle
    Cons:
    1. The seat is on the firmer side.
    2. The fit and finish of the motorcycle need to be improved.
    Verdict:
    If you are looking for a motorcycle under 2L with good performance then this is the best motorcycle. If you want more features then go with Apache RTR 200 or if you are looking for a calm and comfortable motorcycle go with Yamaha FZS-25.

    Do not ride motorcycle harshly till the first service atleast, and do not redline the motorcycle till 2k kms. Lube the chain every 500 kms and clean the chain and sprocket every 1000 kms.

  • Review of crazy bike after 5000km

    48 weeks ago


    Ravikiran Kaniti

    This bike looks extremely gorgeous
    It would be difficult to explain the performance of the 199.5cc engine in the review
    My first service took me about 1080 rupees.
    The sound of this beast was crazy. I ride my bike when there are a group of girls. Literally, they ran away
    Abs working amazing it brings me confidence that I can handle my bike at a higher speed
    USD suspension gives me more stability
    The speed I achieved on this beast was 146kmph. There is no vibration even at 146kmph speed
    My overall experience is amazing. It even looks gorgeous if they give modern features like Bluetooth connectivity and more.

  • Bajaj Pulsar NS 200

    22 weeks ago


    Dhanush

    Design and Build Quality
    The NS200 sports an aggressive and muscular design that immediately stands out. Its sharp lines, edgy tank shrouds, and aerodynamic profile make it visually appealing. The dual-tone color schemes add to its contemporary look. The build quality feels robust, with high-quality plastic and metal components ensuring durability.
    Engine and Performance
    The heart of the NS200 is its 199.5cc, liquid-cooled, single-cylinder engine, which delivers an impressive 24.13 PS of power at 9,750 rpm and 18.5 Nm of torque at 8,000 rpm. The Triple Spark technology enhances combustion efficiency, resulting in a lively performance. The engine is paired with a 6-speed gearbox, offering smooth and precise shifts. The bike accelerates briskly, reaching 0-60 km/h in under 4 seconds, making it one of the quickest in its class.
    Ride and Handling
    The NS200 is built on a perimeter frame, which provides excellent stability and handling. The front telescopic forks and rear mono-shock suspension are well-tuned, offering a good balance between comfort and sportiness. The bike handles corners with confidence, and the MRF tires provide ample grip. The upright riding posture, along with a well-cushioned seat, ensures comfort over long rides.
    Braking and Safety
    Equipped with a single-channel ABS, the NS200 features a 300mm front disc and a 230mm rear disc, delivering strong and progressive braking performance. The ABS system prevents wheel lock-up during hard braking, enhancing rider safety.
    Features
    The NS200 comes loaded with features such as an underbelly exhaust, digital-analog instrument cluster, backlit switchgear, and LED tail lamp. The instrument cluster provides comprehensive information including a speedometer, tachometer, trip meter, fuel gauge, and clock.
    Fuel Efficiency
    Despite its sporty performance, the NS200 manages a respectable fuel efficiency of around 35-40 km/l, depending on riding conditions. The 12-liter fuel tank provides a decent range for both city commutes and weekend rides.
    Pros and Cons
    Pros:
    • Powerful and responsive engine
    • Sporty design and aggressive styling
    • Excellent handling and stability
    • Good braking performance with ABS
    • Feature-rich package
    Cons:
    • Absence of a dual-channel ABS
    • Slightly firm suspension setup for city rides
    • Limited pillion comfort due to the stepped
    seat design
    Verdict
    The Bajaj Pulsar NS200 stands out as a well-rounded package, offering a blend of performance, style, and practicality. It's an ideal choice for young riders and enthusiasts looking for a versatile bike that excels in daily commuting and spirited riding. Its competitive pricing further strengthens its appeal, making it one of the best options in the 200cc segment.
    This review highlights the strengths and potential drawbacks of the NS200, providing a balanced perspective that could resonate well with readers and contest judges alike.

    Tips for other riders

    1. Regular Maintenance • Service Schedule: Follow the manufacturer- recommended service schedule religiously. Regular oil changes, filter cleanings, and spark plug checks are crucial for maintaining engine health. • Chain Maintenance: Regularly clean and lubricate the chain. A well-maintained chain ensures smooth power delivery and extends the chain and sprocket life. • Coolant Check: Since the NS200 is liquid- cooled, regularly check and maintain the coolant level to prevent overheating. 2. Riding Techniques • Smooth Throttle Control: The NS200 has a responsive engine. Smooth throttle inputs will help you control the bike better, especially in traffic and cornering. • Gear Shifts: Use the 6-speed gearbox efficiently by shifting at the right RPMs. Avoid lugging the engine at low RPMs in higher gears or revving too high unnecessarily. 3. Tire Care • Pressure: Keep an eye on the tyre pressure. Incorrect tyre pressure can affect the handling and fuel efficiency. • Tread Depth: Regularly check the tyre tread depth. Replace tyres that are worn out to ensure optimal grip and safety.

    Kaushik

    I've always loved the look of this bike. No bike can match the looks of ns 200. Maintenance cost is also very less. I've had only ns on mind and didn't even think about buying other bike. Even though it didn't get much changes in the bs-6 addition, power is what matters the most for me. I will always love riding this bike.

  • Personal advice to buy ns 200

    5 years ago


    Charan

    Many people review bikes, i don't know how to do that but i would like to share my 5 years of exp, with my bajaj ns200, i call it bumbleb. When i was studding mba my dream was to own a bike, i mean who's not. Earlier i used to ride my papas super splendor. I live in khandala, not a lonavla-khandala, it's on the way to mahabaleshwar, just before a khambataki mountain pass. My college was in pune, so the distance is 60km, so 120km of daily commute. I was a big fan of ktm duke 200,newly launched but problem was that they had limited showrooms and i was unable to find one for me in our area. I thought bajaj distributes ktm bikes so i visited nearest bajaj showroom, asked for ktm and they introduced me this black beast ns200, my papa insisted me to buy that one, but my mind was still on duke...And somehow that sales guy and papa convinced me to buy... Thats what append with sam in transformers when he first meet his bumbleb and was not so excited very much.... To be continued...1.Buying exp - finally bobby (a sales person) sold me that bumbleb on 2nd day, bajaj guys are very nice and supportive till date so sales and after sales service both are bang on for me. And my rest of the journey begun. Till date didn't ride ns200 nor any other bike in same class with a sporty sitting posture. I used to ride only 60-70km/h. On third day i took my bike to the college with my friend nikhil. Naked sport or a street bikes were not much popular 5 years back as of now so i didn't get major attention to the bike which i could had gathered with orange ktm so was still unhappy... To be continued 3.Riding exp. - i don't know its a superstition or truth, some of my friends told me not to ride bike above 70km/h speed till it crosses atleast 3000km, so i followed the tradition to keep avg speed of 80-90km/h, cos bike has a 6 speed gear box it stalls at lower rpm's and i was irritating to shift down everytime at low speeds, i was getting adapted to the riding skills which are required to ride these kind of heavy bhp machines. One day nikhil and me were going to college as a daily commuter, we were busy in our talk and suddenly one r15 squid passed with very high speed. Nikhil simply asked me in a joke that weather i can catch them or not, i said let's try it out, i dropped a gear... Pulled a throttle and o boy... My daily commuter transformed into a race machine.... I crossed 120km/h... 135km/h...148km/h... I was still looking for r15 guys and they were still struggling to cope up . . . That feeling was so prod full . . . After that day i started loving my bike like crazy . . . After completing mba i used my bike for job...Weekend rides...Off road rides...Heavy rain...Deep potholes...To race with squids...Sometimes with semi pro riders...And believe me it never lets me down in any ride...To be continued...4.Looks,performance- looks like a bull from front side...Very aggressive... Very compact from back side... Petal disks add more beauty, there is very much room for graphics . . . Speedometer is nice, performance is balanced, commute or race it does its job pretty well ... It does justice to naked sports category...To be continued 5.Servicing and maintenance - service cost is very less, just 1000-1200 bucks, i have just changed chain sprocket once, treys once, break pads twice, clutch cable once in 65000km... Mileage is very good at around 38-40km for mixed ride conditions i.E city+highway at a speed of 90-120km/h and it is constant for all 5 years, no drop in mileage. 6.Pros - for me speed, comfortable riding position, mileage and a maintenance cost 7.Cons - slight power lag in recent 2018 rides, wind blast, seat is very hard, specially in summer, chain looses frequently, can be seen in all bajaj bikes.8.Conclusion - this is my first bike and it's like a wife, the more you spend time with her more you know her, in first glance u may dislike her but day after day she will amaze u with her skills.... Love for ever... M not going to sell my bike.

  • Pulsar ns200

    4 years ago


    Santosh Kumar Sabat

    Good look with high performance bike . But high maintenance required specially in gear and chains. Will not get any problems while long tours. off road bike need more improvement. Bike and road gap is too less. It will get impacted with each road blockers. Spring used in bike i think need to improve to avoid any impact. Compare to other available bike in 100k budget i think ns 200 is the best in overall performance.

  • The perfect all rounder.

    3 years ago


    Pulkit Vasnani

    We bought the bike 3 years ago and the showroom was very helpful and kind and insightful. The bike has been a bliss to ride ever since it came out of the showroom. The 200cc engine is very responsive to throttle, yet it is very tame and is perfect for a beginner rider. Have completed over 12,000 kilometers on the motorcycle, with primary use being commuting to and from college, with occasional weekend rides. It's looks are honestly one of the best looking in its segment, looks very muscular and curvy, I have purchased the white color and honestly it is gorgeous. We have installed a couple of modifications, like bar end mirrors, and hazard lights. The handling on the motorcycle is very smooth and controlled, and the power delivery is just perfect. It has a liquid cooling system which is just amazing and so helpful in traffic as the engine doesn't heat up too much and cools down relatively fast. Maneuvering and cornering on this motorcycle is also very fun and feels safe when we do so. The first 3 services were free and after that regular service every 6 months was done and the experience was good enough. Extra parts of the motorcycle were not available at the time of its initial (bs iv) release but now it's parts are in stock and can be purchased at reasonable price. Regular monthly washes, and driving the bike safely will not warrant any issues in it, but if it's not maintained and is driven rash expect loss of torque and vibrations on the contact points of your bike. The motorcycle is really good and there is an option of abs too. I don't believe there are any cons other than the vibrations which are the lowest in its segment, because the engine is very refined and reliable. The clip on handle bars are also a plus, as they give an aggressive look to the motorcycle but are also very comfortable. Definitely recommend a test drive of this motorcycle because it's a top pick in its segment.

    Tips for other riders

    1. Regular Maintenance • Service Schedule: Follow the manufacturer- recommended service schedule religiously. Regular oil changes, filter cleanings, and spark plug checks are crucial for maintaining engine health. • Chain Maintenance: Regularly clean and lubricate the chain. A well-maintained chain ensures smooth power delivery and extends the chain and sprocket life. • Coolant Check: Since the NS200 is liquid- cooled, regularly check and maintain the coolant level to prevent overheating. 2. Riding Techniques • Smooth Throttle Control: The NS200 has a responsive engine. Smooth throttle inputs will help you control the bike better, especially in traffic and cornering. • Gear Shifts: Use the 6-speed gearbox efficiently by shifting at the right RPMs. Avoid lugging the engine at low RPMs in higher gears or revving too high unnecessarily. 3. Tire Care • Pressure: Keep an eye on the tyre pressure. Incorrect tyre pressure can affect the handling and fuel efficiency. • Tread Depth: Regularly check the tyre tread depth. Replace tyres that are worn out to ensure optimal grip and safety.

    I've always loved the look of this bike. No bike can match the looks of ns 200. Maintenance cost is also very less. I've had only ns on mind and didn't even think about buying other bike. Even though it didn't get much changes in the bs-6 addition, power is what matters the most for me. I will always love riding this bike.

    I bought this beast in 2017, unfortunately that time it was not came with abs .I used this bike for multiple purpose such as touring, city riding , and sometimes for drag race and believe me none of the time it disappoints me.Servicing and maintenance is also cheap.. (within 1000 )It also have some cons....1) chain drive get loose in every 200km(bajaj vintage problem)2) not much mileage in city ride.

  • Personal advice to buy ns 200

    5 years ago


    Charan

    Many people review bikes, i don't know how to do that but i would like to share my 5 years of exp, with my bajaj ns200, i call it bumbleb. When i was studding mba my dream was to own a bike, i mean who's not. Earlier i used to ride my papas super splendor. I live in khandala, not a lonavla-khandala, it's on the way to mahabaleshwar, just before a khambataki mountain pass. My college was in pune, so the distance is 60km, so 120km of daily commute. I was a big fan of ktm duke 200,newly launched but problem was that they had limited showrooms and i was unable to find one for me in our area. I thought bajaj distributes ktm bikes so i visited nearest bajaj showroom, asked for ktm and they introduced me this black beast ns200, my papa insisted me to buy that one, but my mind was still on duke...And somehow that sales guy and papa convinced me to buy... Thats what append with sam in transformers when he first meet his bumbleb and was not so excited very much.... To be continued...1.Buying exp - finally bobby (a sales person) sold me that bumbleb on 2nd day, bajaj guys are very nice and supportive till date so sales and after sales service both are bang on for me. And my rest of the journey begun. Till date didn't ride ns200 nor any other bike in same class with a sporty sitting posture. I used to ride only 60-70km/h. On third day i took my bike to the college with my friend nikhil. Naked sport or a street bikes were not much popular 5 years back as of now so i didn't get major attention to the bike which i could had gathered with orange ktm so was still unhappy... To be continued 3.Riding exp. - i don't know its a superstition or truth, some of my friends told me not to ride bike above 70km/h speed till it crosses atleast 3000km, so i followed the tradition to keep avg speed of 80-90km/h, cos bike has a 6 speed gear box it stalls at lower rpm's and i was irritating to shift down everytime at low speeds, i was getting adapted to the riding skills which are required to ride these kind of heavy bhp machines. One day nikhil and me were going to college as a daily commuter, we were busy in our talk and suddenly one r15 squid passed with very high speed. Nikhil simply asked me in a joke that weather i can catch them or not, i said let's try it out, i dropped a gear... Pulled a throttle and o boy... My daily commuter transformed into a race machine.... I crossed 120km/h... 135km/h...148km/h... I was still looking for r15 guys and they were still struggling to cope up . . . That feeling was so prod full . . . After that day i started loving my bike like crazy . . . After completing mba i used my bike for job...Weekend rides...Off road rides...Heavy rain...Deep potholes...To race with squids...Sometimes with semi pro riders...And believe me it never lets me down in any ride...To be continued...4.Looks,performance- looks like a bull from front side...Very aggressive... Very compact from back side... Petal disks add more beauty, there is very much room for graphics . . . Speedometer is nice, performance is balanced, commute or race it does its job pretty well ... It does justice to naked sports category...To be continued 5.Servicing and maintenance - service cost is very less, just 1000-1200 bucks, i have just changed chain sprocket once, treys once, break pads twice, clutch cable once in 65000km... Mileage is very good at around 38-40km for mixed ride conditions i.E city+highway at a speed of 90-120km/h and it is constant for all 5 years, no drop in mileage. 6.Pros - for me speed, comfortable riding position, mileage and a maintenance cost 7.Cons - slight power lag in recent 2018 rides, wind blast, seat is very hard, specially in summer, chain looses frequently, can be seen in all bajaj bikes.8.Conclusion - this is my first bike and it's like a wife, the more you spend time with her more you know her, in first glance u may dislike her but day after day she will amaze u with her skills.... Love for ever... M not going to sell my bike.

  • Pulsar ns200

    4 years ago


    Santosh Kumar Sabat

    Good look with high performance bike . But high maintenance required specially in gear and chains. Will not get any problems while long tours. off road bike need more improvement. Bike and road gap is too less. It will get impacted with each road blockers. Spring used in bike i think need to improve to avoid any impact. Compare to other available bike in 100k budget i think ns 200 is the best in overall performance.

  • The perfect all rounder.

    3 years ago


    Pulkit Vasnani

    We bought the bike 3 years ago and the showroom was very helpful and kind and insightful. The bike has been a bliss to ride ever since it came out of the showroom. The 200cc engine is very responsive to throttle, yet it is very tame and is perfect for a beginner rider. Have completed over 12,000 kilometers on the motorcycle, with primary use being commuting to and from college, with occasional weekend rides. It's looks are honestly one of the best looking in its segment, looks very muscular and curvy, I have purchased the white color and honestly it is gorgeous. We have installed a couple of modifications, like bar end mirrors, and hazard lights. The handling on the motorcycle is very smooth and controlled, and the power delivery is just perfect. It has a liquid cooling system which is just amazing and so helpful in traffic as the engine doesn't heat up too much and cools down relatively fast. Maneuvering and cornering on this motorcycle is also very fun and feels safe when we do so. The first 3 services were free and after that regular service every 6 months was done and the experience was good enough. Extra parts of the motorcycle were not available at the time of its initial (bs iv) release but now it's parts are in stock and can be purchased at reasonable price. Regular monthly washes, and driving the bike safely will not warrant any issues in it, but if it's not maintained and is driven rash expect loss of torque and vibrations on the contact points of your bike. The motorcycle is really good and there is an option of abs too. I don't believe there are any cons other than the vibrations which are the lowest in its segment, because the engine is very refined and reliable. The clip on handle bars are also a plus, as they give an aggressive look to the motorcycle but are also very comfortable. Definitely recommend a test drive of this motorcycle because it's a top pick in its segment.

  • Style over speed.

    1 year ago


    Ameya Pasare

    In 2012, when it was at its best and still relatively unknown to the riding community, we purchased a pulsar ns 200 bs3 variant. I use this bike for my daily commute. Great power delivery and good stability, and is worth buying a bike. The looks of this bike are really nice and have caught everyone's attention to date. Perfect 200-cc bike for daily commutes, long rides, and touring. It requires time-to-time servicing because it is a machine with low maintenance costs. Its main pros are that, unlike other bikes, this bike is perfect for daily commutes because of its ride height and seating position, making a rider comfortable and a pillion rider too. But its cons are that the bike is quite a heavy machine if this bike falls, it is very difficult to lift it up. But overall, this bike is like an all-rounder.

  • Lean and mean street fighter

    1 year ago


    Rohan

    1. The buying experience was hassle-free. had to wait for 3 days for the cocktail wine red variant.
    2. When it comes to riding experience this motorcycle is easy to maneuver in city traffic and due to USD forks handling has been improved.
    3. The main reason I considered buying this motorcycle is because of the performance. Once crossing 5k RPM you'll feel the power of this motorcycle.
    4. Maintenance is very affordable as Bajaj accessories are cheaper and have wide service network.
    Pros:
    1. High-revving engine with good top-end punch
    2. Braking has good bite with dual-channel ABS
    3. Handling of the motorcycle
    Cons:
    1. The seat is on the firmer side.
    2. The fit and finish of the motorcycle need to be improved.
    Verdict:
    If you are looking for a motorcycle under 2L with good performance then this is the best motorcycle. If you want more features then go with Apache RTR 200 or if you are looking for a calm and comfortable motorcycle go with Yamaha FZS-25.

    Do not ride motorcycle harshly till the first service atleast, and do not redline the motorcycle till 2k kms. Lube the chain every 500 kms and clean the chain and sprocket every 1000 kms.

  • Review of crazy bike after 5000km

    48 weeks ago


    Ravikiran Kaniti

    This bike looks extremely gorgeous
    It would be difficult to explain the performance of the 199.5cc engine in the review
    My first service took me about 1080 rupees.
    The sound of this beast was crazy. I ride my bike when there are a group of girls. Literally, they ran away
    Abs working amazing it brings me confidence that I can handle my bike at a higher speed
    USD suspension gives me more stability
    The speed I achieved on this beast was 146kmph. There is no vibration even at 146kmph speed
    My overall experience is amazing. It even looks gorgeous if they give modern features like Bluetooth connectivity and more.

  • Bajaj Pulsar NS 200

    22 weeks ago


    Dhanush

    Design and Build Quality
    The NS200 sports an aggressive and muscular design that immediately stands out. Its sharp lines, edgy tank shrouds, and aerodynamic profile make it visually appealing. The dual-tone color schemes add to its contemporary look. The build quality feels robust, with high-quality plastic and metal components ensuring durability.
    Engine and Performance
    The heart of the NS200 is its 199.5cc, liquid-cooled, single-cylinder engine, which delivers an impressive 24.13 PS of power at 9,750 rpm and 18.5 Nm of torque at 8,000 rpm. The Triple Spark technology enhances combustion efficiency, resulting in a lively performance. The engine is paired with a 6-speed gearbox, offering smooth and precise shifts. The bike accelerates briskly, reaching 0-60 km/h in under 4 seconds, making it one of the quickest in its class.
    Ride and Handling
    The NS200 is built on a perimeter frame, which provides excellent stability and handling. The front telescopic forks and rear mono-shock suspension are well-tuned, offering a good balance between comfort and sportiness. The bike handles corners with confidence, and the MRF tires provide ample grip. The upright riding posture, along with a well-cushioned seat, ensures comfort over long rides.
    Braking and Safety
    Equipped with a single-channel ABS, the NS200 features a 300mm front disc and a 230mm rear disc, delivering strong and progressive braking performance. The ABS system prevents wheel lock-up during hard braking, enhancing rider safety.
    Features
    The NS200 comes loaded with features such as an underbelly exhaust, digital-analog instrument cluster, backlit switchgear, and LED tail lamp. The instrument cluster provides comprehensive information including a speedometer, tachometer, trip meter, fuel gauge, and clock.
    Fuel Efficiency
    Despite its sporty performance, the NS200 manages a respectable fuel efficiency of around 35-40 km/l, depending on riding conditions. The 12-liter fuel tank provides a decent range for both city commutes and weekend rides.
    Pros and Cons
    Pros:
    • Powerful and responsive engine
    • Sporty design and aggressive styling
    • Excellent handling and stability
    • Good braking performance with ABS
    • Feature-rich package
    Cons:
    • Absence of a dual-channel ABS
    • Slightly firm suspension setup for city rides
    • Limited pillion comfort due to the stepped
    seat design
    Verdict
    The Bajaj Pulsar NS200 stands out as a well-rounded package, offering a blend of performance, style, and practicality. It's an ideal choice for young riders and enthusiasts looking for a versatile bike that excels in daily commuting and spirited riding. Its competitive pricing further strengthens its appeal, making it one of the best options in the 200cc segment.
    This review highlights the strengths and potential drawbacks of the NS200, providing a balanced perspective that could resonate well with readers and contest judges alike.
