The first Pulsar which hit the Indian roads was the story of 20 years back. At that time it becomes the thing for young India, everybody youngster out there loves to have a Pulsar. After that Pulsar as a brand evolved itself slowly and come with lots of upgrades and variants like 180cc, 220cc, and many more.
Instead of the above upgrades now Bajaj comes with the whole new generation of Pulsar. It is Pulsar 250 which has everything new Like the frame, the engine everything is new. This time Pulsar comes with two models Pulsar N250 and Pulsar F250. Where N is representing the naked version and F is representing the Fairing version.
Looks of Bajaj Pulsar 250
The look of Bajaj Pulsar 250 is refreshing and new but it still contains some typical Pulsar elements to maintain the legacy of Pulsar.
Both Pulsar 250 share the same fuel tanks, side profile, and rear. The rear looks smart with the large split seats and the nice curves to the body panels as they meet that modern version of the classic Pulsar brake lamps.
At the front both use the same projector LED headlamp but they get different LED running lamps and the F version gets a semi-fairing.
Both models of Pulsar 250 are nice machines but they are not super attention-grabbing. That being said the Pulsar N 250 is more youthful and sporty and whereas the F 250 is a more familiar design. Quality levels are pretty much improved from its previous versions.
The seat height of the bike is 795 mm but it feels lower than this because the seat is narrow from the front which helps you place your foot on the ground easily. A short height (5.4) rider can ride this bike.
Ride quality and Comfort of Bajaj Pulsar 250
You get a telescopic forks suspension at the front and a mono-shock at the rear. These suspensions help to make the ride more comfortable. The rear suspension is on a little stiffer side. Overall the Pulsar 250 offers good ride quality.
The seats on both variants of Pulsar 250 are the same. The seats are comfortable and large. Split seats help the pillion to sit straight means the rider and pillion both can sit comfortably which was not previously possible with this kind of bike.
