Full faired 2014 Bajaj Pulsar spotted

A fully faired version of the Bajaj Pulsar is doing the testing rounds in and around Pune. One such example has been spotted at Lavasa, off Pune. The big bone of contention about the full faired Pulsar centers around its engine capacity. While some reports indicate that Bajaj Auto would launch a 200 cc engined full faired Pulsar before the 373.2 cc engined version, others take an opposing stance. Given the fact that Bajaj Auto did indicate that a full faired version of the Pulsar 200, dubbed the SS (supersports) version, was due right at the time of the Pulsar 200 NS' launch, the former possibility seems ripe. 

That said, the spyshots of the heavily camouflaged test motorcycle of the full-faired Pulsar don't reveal anything regarding the motorcycle's engine capacity. What they do reveal though is the fact that the Pulsar in full-faired guise will sport twin headlamps upfront, an aggressive design, turn-indicators borrowed from the Duke range, different handlebar-mounted mirrors, clip-on handlebars, a split-seat design, telescopic front forks, monoshock rear suspension and finally an exhaust muffler that does away with the underbody layout of the Pulsar 200 NS. 

In due course of time, expect Bajaj Auto to have two fully faired motorcycles based on the liquid cooled Pulsar range, in the form of the Pulsar 200 SS and the 375 SS models. These motorcycles will feature engines that are similar to those found on the Duke 200 and 390 motorcycle models, albeit in different states of tune and other changes. Fuel injection and ABS are two new features that are likely to filter into the liquid cooled Pulsar range of the future. More details of the new range of full-faired Pulsars are likely to be revealed in the coming weeks.
