2018 Bajaj Pulsar 150 spied

Bajaj is gearing up to launch the 2018 Pulsar 150. According to a recent spy image, the new Pulsar 150 is likely to receive quite a few updates. 

The 2018 Pulsar 150 seen in the spy image is finished in a dual-tone colour scheme with blue and orange decals on the front fender and tank shroud. It has a stepped seat and split grab handles. The cycle parts including the alloy wheels, suspension, engine, crankcase and exhaust are finished black. It also has a silver heat shield on the exhaust muffler. The front forks and foot pegs appear to have been upgraded as well. Also, in addition to the front disc brake, the 2018 Pulsar 150 will come equipped with a rear disc brake. That said, it is not yet known if it will come equipped with ABS.

Mechanically, the Pulsar 150 is expected to be similar to the current model. Though it will retain the same engine as the existing bike, there is no information if Bajaj would give it a revised tune. The current Pulsar 150 is powered by a 149 cc, single-cylinder, air-cooled, DTS-i engine which makes 13 BHP @ 8,000 rpm and 13.4 Nm of torque @ 6,000 rpm. The engine is paired with a 5-speed gearbox.

The 2018 Pulsar 150 is rumoured to be launched next week. It will compete with the TVS Apache RTR 160 and Honda CB Unicorn 160 in the Indian market.
