Pulsar NS400 gets exclusive dual-tone colour theme and sporty graphics. The big sized NS badging on the tank extension alludes to the bike’s biggest Pulsar credentials. While the NS200 has the USD forks in dark metallic shade, Pulsar NS400 gets the USD forks in a golden finish. It significantly enhances the bike’s overall aesthetics.
