Bajaj Pulsar NS125 review, road test

The final piece of the puzzle is the price tag. The exact amount is Rs 98,234 (ex-showroom, Delhi), which places it almost exactly on par with the Pulsar 150 Neon. For reference, it’s about Rs 20,000 more expensive than the regular Pulsar 125, while the KTM 125 Duke is a whole Rs 72,000 more than the NS125. With this context in mind, the Pulsar NS125 certainly carries a premium price, but it also delivers a distinct and unique experience in the 125cc segment, one with a strong Pulsar flavour to it. It has superior dynamics to both, the Pulsar 125 and the Pulsar 150 Neon and it also looks and feels a whole lot more modern than those two. All this while remaining considerably more affordable than its Austrian counterparts. It seems that Bajaj has found an enticing middle ground, and by doing so, the company is further exploring uncharted territory in the 125cc segment.
