- Gets 37mm USD forks
- Available in three colours
- New features include traction control, ABS modes, and digital console
The updated 2024 Bajaj Pulsar N250 has been launched in India and it is priced at Rs. 1.51 lakh (ex-showroom). The motorcycle gets significant upgrades over its predecessor in the form on updated cycle parts and additional features.
The biggest change comes in the form of the Endurance-sourced 37mm upside down forks at the front. Then, it also gets feature additions like a traction control system, fully digital instrument console with Bluetooth connectivity, and three ABS modes - Rain, Road and Off-Road.
The ABS intervention changes depending on the mode selected. So, say while riding in Rain mode, the system will be the most alert and will intervene a lot more if it detects that the wheel is about to lock.
However, even in the Off-road mode, the ABS cannot be switched off at the rear. That said, the traction control system can be switched off, but only in the Off-road mode.
The new Pulsar N250 also gets a wider, 140-section rear tyre.
The rest of the cycle parts remain unchanged. The motorcycle is offered in three colour schemes - Red, White and Black. The red and white paint schemes get gold coloured forks, while the black colour variant is offered with black coloured forks.
Powering the Pulsar N250 is the tried and tested 249cc, single-cylinder, oil-cooled engine that makes 24.1bhp and 21.5Nm of peak torque. The motor continues to be paired with a five-speed gearbox with an assist and slipper clutch.
Even after all the upgrades, it gets a marginal price hike of Rs. 1,829. In terms of competition, the Pulsar N250 will rival the Suzuki Gixxer 250.
