Reviews of Bajaj Pulsar NS200

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.

About the Reviewer

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.

About the Reviewer

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.

Let me breakdown point wise

1. Buying experience- even though i made full cash payment, the dealership took more than 3 weeks to find a red coloured one. In the excitement i didn't do a right pdi by a technically sound person because they didn't have red in stock n finally found 1 some dealership in karnataka. I had to go through a lot of issues from the beginning because of defective parts on the bike for example,the clutch housing was not of good quality which resulted in lot of vibrations and too much of engine sound. Asked for a bike replacement but they refused as it was already registered in my name. It went for a certain time.....

2. Riding experience - bike is a good handler, good braking, good for long rides and comfortable in city commuting as well.

3.Performance - powerful engine, good torque, good pickup. Good mileage for a 200cc engine (40km/lt) average of city commuting and highway touring.

4. Service & maintenance : bajaj vehicle spares are pretty cheap because of which quality is very bad , low life , less reliable.My bike has some issues with alloy wheels and engine casing powder coat chipping now.

5. Final verdict - i bought it in 2013 and have ridden it for 21000km till now in various terrains and highway rides. It's a total vfm bike for riders who want a bike with good power and torque to make bike riding experience enjoyable. Bajaj has to address and work harder on manufacturing quality issues and spares quality. .

About the Reviewer

The best performance bike in its price segment is quicker than the likes of R15, MT15, RTR 200, Hornet, etc.
With great power on tap, the engine roars to life after 6k rpm as expected of this KTM-derived high-revving engine.
Handles and corners really well, add stickier tires on it and you can lean it comfortably.
The only downside I can think of is that - the pillion seat is very hard and uncomfortable, with stiff suspension.

About the Reviewer

About this 200cc pocket rocket, i want to say that wow.Not about looks because of its engine and especially the top end. In looks the bike is not enough to compete in market because of its sibling duke 200. But when we compare its pricing this bike is value for money in-fact more than its value. Riding experience is awesome if you are heavy enough then you will feel how stable it is on high speed. You can do corners without any hesitation if u know the right way. And its maintenance cost is just as small as a pulsar 150.Comparing to duke 200.So don't worry about maintaining the bike. And some cons are that after 20k kms u feel like engine is little buzzy and not refined. And their wheels they become little unbalanced on high speeds after yiu have done 30k kms. So these are not so worrying. We can easily compromise this because this bike is a best value for money.

Finally I have got my beast. It looks classic & good power. Riding comfort is very good. Everything good but I m missing gear indicator because some times I forgot which gear it's on if there is gear indicator it would be helpful. about mileage I a getting bs6 30-35 .
