Bajaj Pulsar 150 Price in Balakati

1. The buying experience is good because no waiting period. Same day delivery
2. It feels good in a riding experience
3. Looks amazing
4. Servicing is worst because zero knowledge of technicians working in bajaj. When you go service centre. Your bike became a horror and every time they change the engine oil whether its 7 days of last service or 1 month. And every time they say clutch plate problem. Please change and maintenance charge is approx 3000-8000 single service charge. In my opinion please boycott Bajaj.
5. Pros and cons :-
Pros:- it good for daily usage
Comfortable seat
Cons:-
The whole bike is a cons because after purchasing Pulsar you will regret it.
In the Tank and seat only things working fine. Other things like the engine, clutch plate, Minor kit, major kit, ABS , and front alloy wheel is too weak. Never buy Bajaj Pulsar.

About the Reviewer

I'm posting this review after riding my pulsar150 twin disc bs-vi for about 6000kms aver a timespan of 5-6months. I ride it for about a 100kms on an alternate day basis. I've completed 2 services of the bike, each time the engine oil was drained and refilled with new. So i have ridden it with well maintained conditions.
And after that i am stating that the engine is running really fine and residing upon that fact i'm gonna write down unbiased pros and cons that i faced within my time of riding it.
______________________________________________________________________
Pros:
1- great looks ! : even after 20 years of launching it, Bajaj hasn't changed the base design of the bike. Of course there have been some major graphics and look changes over the past decade, but the masculine charisma of the bike still remains the same. The metal tank, sturdy & long wheelbase, and the iconic headlamps gives me the same macho appeal matching my character. Bajaj wasn't wrong when tag lined the pulsar name with "definitely male".
2- engine refinement : although we've heard people complaining about the pulsar's engine being rough and making noises, but i do know some people who boast about the refinement and smoothness of the bike. Let me tell you a secret; pulsar requires maintenance just like any other bike. But some people take their chances of skipping over the service periods, or not refilling the engine oil once after every 10000 kms. It is a pro for me, because as much as i know, these bikes do go on for a long period of time and kilometers only if maintained properly. I usually refill the engine oil upon every service period and clean-lube the chain after every 600-800 kms of riding.
3- comfort - riding the pulsar for 100 kms 3 days in a week for 4 months and also after a long ride of 1000 kms, i can proudly say that this is a very comfortable bike for everyday commute. The forward leaning seating posture, the riding stance and well above-average working dual shock absorbers gives you a very good grip on the asphalt.
So far i haven't witnessed any comfort issues from my side, but those who like to ride in a relaxed posture(rather than slightly sporty leaning posture), I'd suggest then to test ride a pulsar for at least 10-20kms before making a choice. Although the seats could have been a little stiffer which could be a help during long rides. But for daily commute, its very comfortable. No back, wrist or shoulder pains at all. Very minimal and un-noticeable vibrations and no stress points.
4- power and fuel economy : considering both power and fuel economy are inversely proportional, bajaj has mastered both of those in the new bs-vi pulsars. Although power figures have dropped down after having fuel injected system, you don't get that punchy pickup, but what you get is certainly good enough to cruise on highways and overtake heavy vehicles without doubting the circumstances. All that and you get a mileage of 50-55 km/l in cities and 60 km/l on highways while maintaining steady speeds of 60-70kmph. But if you want more power, skip the pulsar 180 and definitely do for 220-f which shall give you about 40 km/l on highways.
5- all other factors : after all the things i wrote above, there are these subtle non-descriptive things which i like, and those maybe; the very bright halogen bulb or the dual honks which make your road presence undoubtful. The new meter console is very informative, yet still lacks gear count indicator and clock (ps: if you know how you ride, then you know which gear is your bike running on and reduction of the clock saves battery). Besides all, the braking is perfectly fine with the single channel abs. Although bajaj could have been grateful enough to feature dual channel abs like most other manufacturers, but the way i ride it, i think its manageable with single channel. The 15 liter tank is a huge pro considering the fact that you don't have to stop at short distances to refuel.(ps- it actually occupies 16-17 liter of fuel and the range goes up to 900kms)

Cons:
1- not that good weight balancing: I've ridden dukes and apaches which are fairly heavier than the pulsar, but those bikes feel really light. Comparing to those, my pulsar feels like a royal enfield. In my opinion bajaj has been making these with the same old designed chasses and frame with the same engine placement, which results in making the bikes feel heavy and dense even when they're not. I'm a perfectly fit and healthy person and sometimes i feel maneuvering an apache or duke in a parking lot or traffic is easier than the pulsar.
2- shifting : its been about 5 months and 6000kms of riding the bike and i still feel the gears are lagging and rough. Before the 2nd service there were mis-shifts and fail-shifts which vanished after loosening the totally tight clutch and giving it a free-play of 10mm, but i still experience lags while shifting from 4th to 5th gear. The service engineers say that it'll get smooth within a year and even i hope so. I wish bajaj works upon this in their upcoming new-gen pulsars.
3- material quality and paint finishes : i have got the "sparkle matte black" version and over the time i'm noticing that the roughness of the matte-finish of the paint getting smooth at the tank grip position due to grabbing the tank with my knees and thighs. Also the rear seat cowl and tail lamp section had started to make noises while riding, which i had to get tightened.
______________________________________________________________________
That's all my folks ! many people might complain about many things about the bike but so far I've given my insights on what I've experienced and observed. This might be the perfect bike for many people, lets say daily work commuters, students like me, or anyone with an appeal towards strong and everlasting pulsars. Looking into the standards which other bikes in the range offer, bajaj is finally going to make a complete redesign of the pulsar 150s right after launching pulsar 250s which might highlight fiber tanks and and better weight balancing. But the present pulsar 150 bs-vi is and always will be the base and fundamental deign idea behind the classic name and legendary attitude of the "manias" riding it.
This review might have got long, and over the time I'll keep it updated, but for now i've tried keeping it short while providing as much details as possible. And all that is worth writing for the bike.
Ride safe !!!
