Guys,
I am around 6 foot 3 inches tall and ride a Pulsar 150 2008 model. Off late, my office has been shifted even further from my home and I have to ride around 34 kms one way to reach office. The riding posture in Pulsar is not relaxed and I get really tired after each days driving. I started getting shoulder and back aches. I am currently using my car for commuting and this is not sustainable.I am spending a lot for petrol. So I decided to change the handle bar on my Pulsar 150 with a one which gives comfortable riding posture. I am currently considering Karizma's handle bar. What do you guys suggest? Will this be a better option?

PS: I am planning to buy a Machismo 500 UCE once it is launched, so this is more or less a stop gap arrangement till then.

So no one in team-bhp has ever changed handlebar in Pulsar?

You can get the handlebar of Unicorn/ZMA but I'm not sure about the clutch & accelerator cables fitting.

Just compare the length of clutch & accelerator cables before installing any handle.

Go for zma handle bar, a few fixes here and there and there will be no problems.

Try getting the handlebar of 2004 model Ug1 Pulsar 150 dts i. It is not as short and the riding posture would be far more relaxed. You can also try out the one from Discover.

Hi everyone,

I own a 2019 Pulsar 150 that comes with a split handlebar setup. The slightly forward-leaning riding position is starting to give me back pain, and I’m not too keen on spending a lot just for a one-inch handlebar riser.

I mostly use the bike for city commutes, so I’m looking for a more comfortable riding posture. Ideally, I’d like to switch to a handlebar that’s slightly raised—something similar to the Duke 200’s or any setup that gives around 2 inches of added height.

If anyone knows of a good mechanic, garage, or has any alternative solutions in or around East Bangalore, I’d really appreciate your input. Thanks in advance!

If you can manage to find the top T-plate from a pre-UG4 model which had an actual full handlebar, you can mount the silver coated single handlebar from the older models. That will definitely help to ease up some of that pain.

So, the top T-plate of the older model is a direct fit on this model? That's nice. Sure, I will try that.

Thank you.

You can also do something like this as well.
