The Bajaj Pulsar is a legend. There are no two ways about it. There’s a certain heft attached to the Pulsar name that was built on the lore of the original Pulsar 150 and 180. Today, things are a little different. There are a total of 10 different Pulsar models on sale right now. These are divided into three broad categories - Pulsar Classics, Pulsar N and Pulsar NS series.
The folks at Bajaj are responsible for this categorisation of the Pulsar range and, as far as they say, each category serves a specific purpose. The Pulsar Classics, for example, have that old-school-looking body but with updated engines and colours. The NS series is purely based on performance, and the N series sort of strikes a balance between refinement and sportiness. The N series currently consists of the recently updated N150 and N160 as well as the top-of-the-line N250, which, too, has received an update. We’ve ridden this latest iteration of the Pulsar N250 and there’s much to catch up on.
For starters, there are the three new colour options and updated graphics. Personally, I’ve always been a fan of the N series. They look sleek, menacing and there’s a modernity to the overall design. The updated graphics do look slightly in your face, but I suspect that’s more to set the N250 apart from the N160. My pick of the lot would be the Brooklyn Black, but the Glossy Racing Red and Pearl Metallic White look fairly dapper, too.
