  • pulsar ns 160 surprisingly mileage change

    5 years ago


    Alkama

    I just bought a pulsar ns 160 ten days ago and in the first day only i filled the tank upto it's full but surprisingly it didn't lasted for more than 6 days so i filled the tank with 1 litre petrol and i got the mileage of 19 that was truly depressing, i thought the reason was my high reving the bike and pushing the throttle hard another time i filled the tank with 1 litre and again started riding it to check its mileage but this time with normal riding like accelerating as per the road and traffic condition and using the velocity producing by the bike judiciously and really the mileage i got was truly surprising i got 38 kmpl of mileage and now please let me tell you that all i told you is before the first servicing so after that i think i may get upto 43 kmpl and one thing i also want to tell you apart from the mileage that it has one of the greatest visual appeal.

    One thing I must say that please don't rev it up too hard when it's new because I have done that mistake and it's all cause of its performance it will let you feel to push the throttle harder and harder.

  • Good handling poor mileage

    6 years ago


    Uday

    Done with first service, using essar fuel regularly and about 600 kms.. Yet the mileage is about 32. I bought it for mileage yet i didn't find it. It will increase if we use shell fuel and ride in 40 km/h during initial period which i am doing regularly, but that won't be a deal breaking increase. May be highest that i could get in the future would be 37 or 38. Ride quality though is great. Did skid twice when the bike was new but tyres all good now. 2nd and 3rd gear feels a bit taller for start n stop traffic. But if the road is moving you can maneuver around.

  • Touring and mileage

    4 years ago


    Akilan

    Good sales team and bad service team . Riding is good . Vibrates at higher rpm (above 7.5). 40 kmpl mileage . Low maintenance but parts quality is low could have gave an better bumper . Pros - looks , better than other 160 cc , can be used for touring. Cons- quality could have been better, gear shifting issues (gears locks at a position sometimes).

    Akash Benwal

    Pulsar ns 160 is nice bike with good looks and good pick up, very comfortable when you ride it, only bad thing about pulsar ns 160's mileage , its about 30 to 35 kmpl , which is not affordable to every one , good for speed lovers , maintenance maybe the problem for buyers .. So for me bajaj pulsar ns 160 is average bike

    I was very excited to buy my first new bike. My first choice was to be ns 200. But then i came to know about launch of ns160 . I test ridden both ns 160&ns200. I had a confusion of what bike to choose because both the bikes came up with an little differences. Then i choose ns 160 for its mileage and low cost than ns200. The buying experience was amazing the bike came to my hands after one week. I used to go to my college by bike the engine is very smooth i was able to handle the bike very easily though it weighs 142kgs. The nitrox mono suspension is very nice it allows you to travel to a longer distance without back pain. Tough it has an smaller front disc (240mm) its braking is superb. Overall the riding experience is nice. I was really impressed by its looks it has a great look and sharp edge design that everyone in the road will turn and see this bike. I personally like its pilot lamp that you can find that is ns from a long distance. According to maintenance and servicing i ride my bike below (5000rpm) so that the maintenance cost is low. I am very disappointing with the gear shifting and it has very small tyres and it doesn't allow enough grip during curves. Its mileage is little good comparing to other bikes(42kmpl).

  • Good handling poor mileage

    6 years ago


    Uday

    Done with first service, using essar fuel regularly and about 600 kms.. Yet the mileage is about 32. I bought it for mileage yet i didn't find it. It will increase if we use shell fuel and ride in 40 km/h during initial period which i am doing regularly, but that won't be a deal breaking increase. May be highest that i could get in the future would be 37 or 38. Ride quality though is great. Did skid twice when the bike was new but tyres all good now. 2nd and 3rd gear feels a bit taller for start n stop traffic. But if the road is moving you can maneuver around.

  • Touring and mileage

    4 years ago


    Akilan

    Good sales team and bad service team . Riding is good . Vibrates at higher rpm (above 7.5). 40 kmpl mileage . Low maintenance but parts quality is low could have gave an better bumper . Pros - looks , better than other 160 cc , can be used for touring. Cons- quality could have been better, gear shifting issues (gears locks at a position sometimes).

    Pulsar ns 160 is nice bike with good looks and good pick up, very comfortable when you ride it, only bad thing about pulsar ns 160's mileage , its about 30 to 35 kmpl , which is not affordable to every one , good for speed lovers , maintenance maybe the problem for buyers .. So for me bajaj pulsar ns 160 is average bike

    I was very excited to buy my first new bike. My first choice was to be ns 200. But then i came to know about launch of ns160 . I test ridden both ns 160&ns200. I had a confusion of what bike to choose because both the bikes came up with an little differences. Then i choose ns 160 for its mileage and low cost than ns200. The buying experience was amazing the bike came to my hands after one week. I used to go to my college by bike the engine is very smooth i was able to handle the bike very easily though it weighs 142kgs. The nitrox mono suspension is very nice it allows you to travel to a longer distance without back pain. Tough it has an smaller front disc (240mm) its braking is superb. Overall the riding experience is nice. I was really impressed by its looks it has a great look and sharp edge design that everyone in the road will turn and see this bike. I personally like its pilot lamp that you can find that is ns from a long distance. According to maintenance and servicing i ride my bike below (5000rpm) so that the maintenance cost is low. I am very disappointing with the gear shifting and it has very small tyres and it doesn't allow enough grip during curves. Its mileage is little good comparing to other bikes(42kmpl).

  • pulsar ns 160 surprisingly mileage change

    5 years ago


    Alkama

    I just bought a pulsar ns 160 ten days ago and in the first day only i filled the tank upto it's full but surprisingly it didn't lasted for more than 6 days so i filled the tank with 1 litre petrol and i got the mileage of 19 that was truly depressing, i thought the reason was my high reving the bike and pushing the throttle hard another time i filled the tank with 1 litre and again started riding it to check its mileage but this time with normal riding like accelerating as per the road and traffic condition and using the velocity producing by the bike judiciously and really the mileage i got was truly surprising i got 38 kmpl of mileage and now please let me tell you that all i told you is before the first servicing so after that i think i may get upto 43 kmpl and one thing i also want to tell you apart from the mileage that it has one of the greatest visual appeal.

    One thing I must say that please don't rev it up too hard when it's new because I have done that mistake and it's all cause of its performance it will let you feel to push the throttle harder and harder.
