According to a media report, Bajaj is working on a 400cc version of the Pulsar. The new model is expected to be called the Pulsar NS400 and it could be ready for launch in 2024.
The Pulsar NS400 will reportedly be based on a modified version of the chassis that underpins the NS200. The frame is likely to be strengthened to handle the bigger engine, making it slightly heavier.
The styling of the Pulsar NS400 could be similar to other models in the NS range. We can expect a sporty design with a bikini fairing at the front, tank extensions and a narrow tail section. The bike could be equipped with features like a digital instrument console with Bluetooth connectivity and an LED headlamp among others.
It is said that the NS400 will use the existing 373cc engine from the Dominar, instead of the upgraded 399cc unit from the KTM 390 Duke. The single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine develops 39.4 BHP and 35 Nm and is paired with a 6-speed gearbox.
The report also states that the Pulsar NS400 is likely to be positioned below the Dominar 400.
