Car usage has dropped a lot as it's a pain to ride 50kms across Bangalore each day.

BHPian SS80 recently shared this with other enthusiasts.

A big update guys. Sold my bike and upgraded to Pulsar 150 BS4 ABS Model. A new thread will be live soon. Do I miss my bike? A little bit yes.

Need for selling?

Work From Office resumed, clearly a 250km ride every week through the infamous pothole-ridden roads of Bangalore became quite a task. All my previous routes were towards airports/highways, now it's right into the city and rides got tiring with each day.

No major issues, but needed a slightly heavier bike, with better suspension and disc brakes.

Completed 600 km on the new ride. Car usage has dropped a lot as it's a pain to ride 50 km across Bangalore each day. Finally, a Pulsar now enters my garage.

Check out BHPian comments for more insights and information.

The new Pulsar P150 is based on the next-gen Pulsar platform that was introduced in October 2021.

Bajaj Auto has announced the launch of the all-new Pulsar P150. The bike is available in two variants: single-disc and twin-disc, priced at Rs 1,16,755 and Rs 1,19,757 (ex-showroom, Delhi).

The new Pulsar P150 is based on the next-gen Pulsar platform that was introduced in October 2021. The bike now features a sharper, sportier design and an underbelly exhaust. The single-disc variant offers an upright riding position, while the twin-disc variant has a sportier stance and comes with a split seat.

The Pulsar P150 is powered by a new 149.68cc, single-cylinder engine that produces 14.3 BHP @ 8,500 rpm and 13.5 Nm @ 6,000 rpm. The engine is mated to a 5-speed gearbox.

Bajaj claims that 90% of the torque is available across the usable RPM range. The bike weighs 10 kg less than its predecessor, which is said to translate to an 11% increase in the power-to-weight ratio.

The P150 comes with a conventional telescopic fork suspension at the front and a mono-shock at the rear. Braking is handled by 260 mm and 230 mm discs at the front and rear respectively, while the lower variant gets a 130 mm drum at the rear.

The Dagger Edge Edition comprises four new colour options - Pearl White, Sapphire Blue, Volcanic Red and Sparkle Black

Bajaj has launched Dagger Edge Editions of the Pulsar 150, Pulsar 180 and Pulsar 220F.

The Dagger Edge Edition comprises four new colour options - Pearl White, Sapphire Blue, Volcanic Red and Sparkle Black. All three models are mechanically identical to their standard counterparts.

The Pulsar 150 is powered by a 149cc, single-cylinder engine that produces 13.8 BHP @ 8,000 rpm and 13.25 Nm @ 6,500 rpm. The engine is mated to a 5-speed gearbox. It is available in Pearl White and Sapphire Blue.

The Pulsar 180 uses a 178.6cc, single-cylinder engine that puts out 16.76 BHP @ 8,500 rpm and 14.52 Nm @ 6,500 rpm. The engine is paired with a 5-speed gearbox. This bike comes in Pearl White, Volcanic Red and Sparkle Black colours

The Pulsar 220F comes with a 220cc, single-cylinder motor that pumps out 20.11 BHP @ 8,500 rpm and 18.55 Nm @ 7,000 rpm. The 220F is also equipped with a 5-speed gearbox. The 220F gets all four aforementioned colours.

Bajaj has reportedly launched a new entry-level variant of the Pulsar 150 called the 150 Classic. Compared to the standard model, it misses out on certain cosmetic elements as well as features. Reports indicate that the bike will be priced at Rs. 67,437 (ex-showroom, Mumbai).

As the name suggests, the Pulsar 150 Classic is inspired by the third-generation model. It has a stepped seat but misses out on the split-seat offered on other variants. The plastic tank extensions have been removed and apart from the model designation there aren't any decals or graphics. The 150 Classic also misses out on a rear disc brake as well.

The Pulsar 150 Classic uses the same 149.5 cc, single-cylinder, air-cooled engine as the standard Pulsar 150. This engine develops 13.8 BHP @ 8,000 rpm and 13.4 Nm of torque @ 6,000 rpm and comes mated to a 5-speed gearbox. Braking duties are handled by a 240 mm front disc brake and a 130 mm drum brake at the rear. ABS is not available on this variant.

Bajaj Auto has launched a new variant of the Pulsar 150, which comes equipped with disc brakes at both ends. It is priced at Rs. 78,016 (ex-showroom, Delhi) and will be sold alongside the single disc variant.

The motorcycle comes with a single 260 mm disc in the front and a 230 mm disc in the rear. However, it does not get ABS. In addition to the twin disc setup, the new Pulsar 150 receives other updates like split seats, split rear grab handle and a 37 mm telescopic front fork. Additionally, the wheelbase has been lengthened and the bike rides on a 120 mm rear tyre - 20 mm wider than the standard Pulsar 150. Bajaj also claims that the twin disc variant has lower NVH levels. 

The Pulsar 150 Twin Disc uses the same 149.5 cc, single-cylinder, DTS-i engine as the single disc model. The engine puts out 13 BHP @ 8,000 rpm and 13.4 Nm of torque @ 6,000 rpm and is mated to a 5-speed gearbox. 

The new Pulsar 150 with twin disc brakes is offered in 3 dual-tone colour options - Black Blue, Black Red and Black Chrome.

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.

All models under the new collection now come with a dual tone colour of blue & white. Bajaj claims that the new Pulsars get better seat cushioning and a revised exhaust unit, while the instrument cluster too has been tweaked slightly, as it now features blue backlit illumination instead of amber.

The Pulsar 135 LS is powered by a BSIV compliant, 135cc single-cylinder engine that develops 13.3 BHP and 11.4 Nm of torque. The Pulsar 150 meanwhile continues to be equipped with the BSIII engine, and thus only get the cosmetic tweaks as part of the 2017 update.

A new motorcycle from the Bajaj Auto stable has been spotted. This bike is believed to be an upcoming version of the Pulsar. In our previous report (click here to read), we had put up images of the bike without any body graphics and according to the spotter, it was powered by a new 160 cc, single-cylinder engine. Bajaj, however, has revealed the bike in Turkey as the Pulsar 150 NS. The company is likely to use the same nomenclature for the Indian market.

The Pulsar 150 NS looks similar to the 200 NS. However, unlike its larger sibling, it does not have a rear disc brake. A kick-starter has also been added. The bike is expected to be more powerful than the current-generation Pulsar 150 and its engine is likely to be oil-cooled.

Recently, Bajaj Auto had disclosed that it plans to launch six models in six months (click here to read report). The Pulsar 150 NS is likely to be one of them. More details on the bike are awaited.
