Reviews of Bajaj Pulsar RS 200

Since the time i set my budget of about rs. 1 lakh, i had my eyes on the pulsar ns200. I loved the looks of that bike and 200cc engine ensured enough power for city commutes and occasional weekend rides. But my heart broke when i was told that bajaj had discontinued the ns200 and replaced it with the as200. I personally was never a fan of the looks of as200. Hence i decided to stretch my budget to rs. 1.5 lakhs. Looking around at this segment in 2016, i just had two options with me, it was either the bajaj pulsar rs200 or the ktm duke 200. Personally, i wasn't much of a fan of the looks of rs200 as well, but then when i was denied the option to test ride the ktm duke 200 by the staff at the showroom i test rode a friend's bike. I almost was clear that i was going with the duke 200. But for once, i had to test ride the rs200 and have a final verdict among the two bikes. I went to the bajaj showroom to test ride the pulsar rs200 and almost immediately was attracted towards the demon black color (mind you, the was the first time i was seeing the bike in person). The test ride was short and sweet and wasn't able to get a true idea of the power of that bike as it was supposed to be a customer bike and didn't want to spoil someone else's bike. I went home and researched about the pros and cons of this bike and as per the customer reviews, the cons outweighed the pros. It was at this moment i was reading about the vibration issues and poor build quality and all the possible cons one can imagine. But i knew from the test ride that this was the bike i had to go for as i had started developing an unexplained connection with this bike. I made up my mind that was ready to take the leap of faith and deal with any problems if at all they come with this bike. I paid up for the bike, my loan was cleared and i was eagerly waiting for the date the staff in the showroom had told me. They guaranteed the bike to be delivered in 14 days. I wanted the bike on my mother's birthday hence i had kept a week's buffer as i know things can go wrong and was expecting a delay of about 3 days. On the day the showroom staff had guaranteed to deliver the bike i walked into the showroom with all my gears and to my surprise i was told that my payments aren't cleared yet. The ground below me almost fell apart as i had received a confirmation that the loan has been approved withing 5 days of making the payment and applying for the loan. I showed them the mail regarding the same and they had no clue about it, this was the worst feeling ever as i knew under no circumstance was i gonna be getting my bike on my mother's birthday which was the case. Eventually i picked up my bike later on and cranked it for the first time giving it a cold start and boy-oh-boy was i in love with the exhaust note. Performed all the rituals and got it home and almost the whole time i was staring at the bike from my window. The break-in period was a tough time as this bike demands to be revved and the sweet exhaust note is an aural delight. And all the issues that i read of wasn't luckily present in my bike. Post my break-in period i was able to truly unleash the potential of the bike and it has never disappointed me. The handling, the power delivery, the flick ability despite it's curb weight of 186 kgs is just amazing, the brakes also perform well and the abs are a boon as well, the suspension is on a stiffer side but can handle anything thrown at it, the engine is peppy and very rev happy. When it comes down to servicing, it is very affordable to maintain this bike and the parts aren't too expensive to replace. An average service would cost between rs. 1000-1500. However, the last time i gave my bike for servicing it "miraculously" developed deep scratches which despite buffing and polishing is very evident and the head of the service center isn't ready to accept their fault despite the service adviser saying that the bike came in with zero scratch. Coming to the pros, i'd say it is one of the best bike as it is a perfect blend for daily commute as well as weekend and long rides as it can hold on to triple digit speed for hours. It has a very comfortable riding position. Coming to the cons, there are occasional vibrations around the front fairing, but this happens once in a blue moon so that can be dealt with, moreover bajaj have addressed the vibration issue in their 2017 model so you can be rest assured of it. Another con would be that the rider's seat isn't meant for long distances, after 200 kms, one develops butt sores, even this can be rectified by using gel seats or adding extra cushion. The pillion seat however happens to be very uncomfortable as complained by my pillions and experienced once myself. However, if you overlook all of it, it is worth every money spent on this beautiful machine and i never even for once regret my decision of going with this bike.

Thanks to bajaj and my brother rs 200.

Pulsar rs200 is very and high class look for every one.

Highly performance for the bike.

About the Reviewer

1. Buying experience was pretty good, i have booked my rs200 right after its launch and got the delivery within 7 days of booking. I bought this one from malhotra motors mandi (h.P.)

2. Riding a beast of 24.5bhp for a beginner was one of the best experience in life, pickup is more than expected, already defeated many competitors in drag race as well.

3. Look wise 200 rs is such a beauty. Diamond tail-light differentiate it from other rivals. This beast impress everyone out there on the road with its overall looks

4.Bajaj service centre is providing best services till date and maintaining this beauty is not a problem at all like bullet and any other bike having heavy engine.

5. Pros:

a) looks

b) price

c) performance

d) easy to maintain

e) after sale services by bajaj

Cons:

Just there are some vibrations sound can be felt on the body during higher rpms but can be reduced by using b2 tape between the fibre joints of the front side.
