Pulsar 200 NS Ownership Review By- Sunny

  • Aug 14, 2015
  • |   Comments
Hi all, I am Sunny from Bangalore. I own a Pulsar 200NS. My previous bike was Bajaj XCD 135 the magic machine that I called coz I use to get 75-80 mileage throughout 4 years. One day I had a crash and the silencer got a hit. The parts were totally unavailable. With some welding I continued using the bike.

Then one day I saw a newly launched KTM Duke. It caught my eye, something felt missing. And after few months or so another bike caught my eye and that was 200NS it had that magical touch that was missing on Duke 200. Now that magic touch was the masculine built and a damn sexy look and from Hamara Bajaj. And there was no long silencer. As I had issues with silencer earlier I preferred 200 NS. But I still had doubts so I waited for review. And after 1 complete year of its existence I decided its finally my time to buy it. Xbhp helped a lot in getting details of the monster. And I booked the bike and also exchanged my previous bike with Kalyani Bajaj. Very good sales team they got at Mekhri circle and with lot of confusion I finally booked the cherry black NS.

I took the bike on loan and they helped me throughout the process and with easy documentation. On 3rd Sept'2013 I got my bike delivered. It was a rainy day so it felt a little difficult to ride. But in next few days I was completely in sync with the NS. But always felt it is dying to go fast and I was not letting it to due to engine run in And the day I hit 999 on the Odo the first time I opened the throttle and it just went on and on till 140 kmph on speedo on a national highway with almost no traffic... That day I felt this monster can do more... Now the review of the bike: It is the best street fighter in its class with close to 40-50 mileage depending on riding skills. The stock tyres on the bike are Eurogrips which is remarkably good for most Indian road conditions. It has a proper body balance and nothing aches as such during long rides. It is one unstoppable machine which can take up on any kind of roads and terrains.

The underbelly exhaust is a super cool add-on, on a rainy Bangalore day when roads are flooding and most of the bikes stalled and kept aside this just Vrooms around in water. I have personally done a ride on knee deep watery road. Due to the design washing the bike is very easy. But it gets dirty quiet quick. To keep it clean it is better to have the tyre huger on all times. It is good to have accessories with you like lubes and hex keys with you so that you can lube chain and do some minor adjustments. The bike has a very good touring capabilities. Smooth on corners and on empty roads where u can open throttle it is scarily fast... Since then I been touring on the bike with biking groups like Naked wolves, Xbhp, The Lycans and my own night riding group called Night Patrol. And most of time do solo also. With the radiator and coolant u need not stop the bike every 100 kms. Once I had done the first stop after 300kms. It never gets tired.. And its absolutely well In taking corners... Doing knee downs on this bike is a piece of cake and it looks stunningly beautiful while cornering. The max kms I've done on single day on this bike is 750 kms, it was not at all tiring or boring at all.

About service: Service charges are actually so less compared to most bikes of the same order. I use Motul 7100 since my first service it holds up to 6000 kms with 1.2 liters. It costs around 805 per liter. But the service engineers feel difficult to service as they have to strip down the whole bike to service completely as air filter oil filter and carburetor is under the tank. So they charge some extra labor charges but that's OK. Safety: I wear an LS2 helmet version eyes. Spartan Icarus Jacket, fox knee guards, spartan phaeton gloves and Moto gear boots. I just love my bike, Its my bro coz its definitely male.

What Makes Pulsar 200 NS Best Bike In 200 cc Segment?

May 30, 2018
The bike launched by Bajaj in 2012 was way ahead of its time. So much so that the company decided to stop its production and relaunch it in 2017. I am talking about the Pulsar 200 NS. It is the most successful concept to have ever come out of Bajaj’s R&D. The bike sits on a perimeter platform which has extensively been used in Pulsar RS 200, AS 200, NS 160, AS 150 (NS = Naked sport, AS = Adventure sport, RS = Race sport) and Dominar 400. Despite branching off to so many genres, the NS 200 still remains the most preferred bike in the sports series of Bajaj motorcycles and rightly so, Let me explain why.

Pulsar 200 NS Vs Yamaha FZ-25: Comparo

May 27, 2018
It’s the battle of the Naked motorcycles. Pulsar 200 NS has been in our market, almost unchanged since 2012. It is only challenged by its foreign sibling the KTM Duke 200.

So without wasting any time, let’s compare these two and settle the score.

The Evolution Story Of Bajaj Pulsar

Mar 31, 2018
The generation born in the 90’s knows Bajaj Pulsar as a household name. It is a motorcycle, whose story we don’t have to listen from our elders because we have grown up with it, literally. When we were teenagers we were presented with a simple design Pulsar, capable of everyday motorcycling needs and a little fun on empty roads. Now, when all of us have grown up, we have Pulsars which can scream their way up to 150 km/h. that’s the kind of relationship our generation has with the Pulsar. So let's take some time out in reliving its history.

Why Pulsar 180F Sucks- A Critical Analysis

Feb 4, 2019
Since the design rehash formula worked wonders for a motorcycle which has already captured a big portion of the 150cc market. It should definitely work for a bike which hasn’t even begun competing on the same level as its siblings. So Bajaj decided to use the design of the Pulsar 220F and put the 180cc engine in it. The sad part isn't that they are diluting the image of Pulsar 220F, but they are also doing the right thing economically.

Is it worth it to buy Bajaj Pulsar 150 in 2018?

The Arctic to the Antarctic: Bajaj takes step in the right direction

Aug 7, 2018
The Bajaj Dominar, this time around, is going to ride from the Arctic to the Antarctic, well not exactly because that’s physically not possible on a motorcycle as there is a lot of water between the two continents. It is, however, possible, to touch both poles as one extends towards north from Canada and the other extends towards south from Argentina. So the Dominar is going to ride across the North and South American continents in a 5 Leg journey.
