Surprisingly, after almost twelve years, the allure of the Pulsar NS series remains strong and resilient.2024 Bajaj Pulsar NS200 Arrives At ShowroomIn response to evolving standards, Bajaj has infused new life into the series with subtle upgrades, presenting the 2024 Bajaj Pulsar NS200 and NS160 with a host of improved features. The new Pulsar NS 200 has now arrived at the dealer showroom. Thanks to Sameer Vlogs, we now have a detailed first look walkround of the new P200 NS.2024 Bajaj Pulsar NS 200Contrary to the notion that only retro or classic bikes maintain their charm, the Pulsar NS range defies this stereotype. The motorcycle’s muscular appeal received a boost with the introduction of USD front forks last year. The design, aging gracefully, has now undergone a mild refresh in 2024, showcasing a new face and instrument cluster that align with contemporary customer preferences.2024 updated models offer enhanced features at a slightly increased cost compared to their pre-facelift counterparts. The Pulsar NS160 competes primarily with the TVS Apache RTR 160 4V, Yamaha FZ, and Honda SP160, while the Pulsar NS200 faces off against the TVS Apache RTR 200 4V and Honda Hornet 2.0. Bajaj aims to strengthen the sales performance of both the Pulsar NS200 and NS160 with the refreshed design and feature-rich offerings.[embedded content]Notable Changes in the 2024 ModelTwelve years post its debut, the Pulsar NS receives a design update that retains its overall silhouette while adding a modern touch. The key changes include a new LED headlight, LED DRLs, and LED turn indicators. The redesigned DRLs exude a more prominent and dynamic appearance, reminiscent of a predator’s strong jawbone.The instrument cluster has undergone a significant transformation, now being fully digital. Unlike Bajaj’s recent launches with Bluetooth connectivity, the 2024 Pulsar NS200 and NS160 come equipped with turn-by-turn navigation—a first for Bajaj motorcycles. Additional features include a new button on the left handlebar switchgear and two buttons below the instrument screen for cycling through various functions.Mechanically, both the Pulsar NS200 and NS160 retain their pre-facelift specifications. The NS200 boasts a KTM-derived 199.5cc single-cylinder SOHC 4V, triple spark liquid-cooled engine with 24 bhp and 18.74 Nm, paired with a 6-speed gearbox.The motorcycles share identical cycle parts, including USD telescopic front forks, rear nitrox mono-shock setup, 300mm front disc, 230 mm rear disc, optional dual-channel ABS, 100/80-17 front tyre and 130/70-17 rear tyre, sporty clip-on handlebars, 12L fuel tank, and more—all mounted on a sturdy perimeter frame. Official launch is expected soon, which is when the ex-sh prices will be revealed. More

      2024 Husqvarna Svartpilen 250 Incoming – Homologated Ahead Of Launch

      by

      Husqvarna Svartpilen : Image for reference onlyMost of the components of upcoming 2024 Husqvarna Svartpilen 250 will be shared with recently launched 2024 Vitpilen 250Bajaj Auto has been handling motorcycle production for as many as three international motorcycle brands. These are KTM, Husqvarna and more recently, Triumph. There has been a significant launch with Husqvarna in the form of 2024 Svartpilen 401 and Vitpilen 250. Now there is a new motorcycle incoming, which is Svartpilen 250.2024 Husqvarna Svartpilen 250 IncomingEarlier this year, the iconic Swedish motorcycle manufacturer, Husqvarna, launched a 401 version of its Black Arrow (Svartpilen) and a 250 version of its Silver Arrow (Vitpilen). At that time, there was no Vitpilen with the larger 401 and no Svartpilen with smaller 250. This was likely done to associate displacement categories with character and design DNA.As per the company, there won’t be a (Silver Arrow) Vitpilen 401 launch keeping the Roadster-styled Vitpilen limited to smaller 250cc segment. However, Svartpilen (Black Arrow) seems to be getting ready to be launched in both 401 and 250 segments. Last month, Husqvarna had only launched Svartpilen 401.The new Svartpilen 250 has been recently homologated, post Svartpilen 401 launch. As per the leaked homologation document type approved by Transport Department of India, Svartpilen will be a slightly taller version of Vitpilen 250, launched last month. Other dimensions like 1,368 mm long wheelbase, 807 mm width and 2071 mm length are common between both 250cc bikes.2024 Husqvarna Svartpilen 250 homologatedHowever, there is a slight difference in gross weight. Upcoming Svartpilen 250 features a 315 kg gross weight, while it is 314 kg for recently launched Vitpilen 250. Type approval documents also show the same engine displacement at 249.07cc and the same 22.8 kW peak power (30.57 bhp).Changes expected with Husqvarna’s Black ArrowThere seems to be a slight retune in Svartpilen 250’s engine as its peak power comes in at 9,250 RPM as opposed to 9,500 RPM of Vitpilen 250. This is done to suit respective character and styling genres. The same 249.07 cc single-cyl liquid-cooled DOHC 4V engine is likely to be carried over to Svartpilen 250 as well.This engine will generate 30.57 bhp peak power and 25 Nm peak torque, mated to a 6-speed gearbox and a slip and assist clutch. Where componentry is concerned, there will be non-adjustable USD telescopic front forks and single-sided rear mono-shock shared with Vitpilen 250. Wheels could be wire-spoke ones with tube-type dual-sport tyres. Probably Pirelli Scorpions.2024 Husqvarna Svartpilen 401 : For referenceWhen opposed to previous Svartpilen 250, there will be a larger fuel tank, a tail-section (no more factory tail tidy), a larger headlight cowl and a much larger and more accommodating seat. There will be a sole matt black shade with neon highlights. More

      Royal Enfield Scram 650 And Classic 650 Spotted Testing Together

      by

      Royal Enfield Scram 650Where Classic 650 dwells into its Classic-ness, Scram 650 emerges as the more sporty offering and it could be the lightest RE 650 bikeThe iconic British motorcycle manufacturer, Royal Enfield, is gearing up to launch new motorcycles to further expand its ever-expanding portfolio. The latest launch from Bullet-maker was Shotgun 650 and the 650cc portfolio will be further expanded to include Classic 650 and Scram 650, as both were spotted testing.Royal Enfield Scram 650 & Classic 650 SpottedThe four motorcycle launches per year strategy keenly followed by Royal Enfield has yielded the first product – Shotgun 650. There are three more to go for the year 2024 and one of these three is likely to be Scram 450, which is a stripped-down version of New Himalayan 450. The other two launches might include both 350cc and 650cc offerings.Scram 650 and Classic 650Upcoming motorcycles in 650cc category are Classic 650 and Scram 650. Both these motorcycles are currently under testing. The recent spy shots credited to automotive enthusiast DerpBDerpy, show both upcoming Classic 650 and Scram 650 in the same frame, trundling down the streets of Chennai city.Where design is concerned, Classic 650 looks very much like a lengthened Classic 350, which is not a bad thing at all. This formula exudes timeless appeal and radiates understated elegance. Whereas, Scram 650 looks like an Interceptor 650 on steroids. When launched, Scram 650 is likely to get the name Interceptor Bear 650.Tripper Dash on Scram 650Scram 650 is the most feature-loaded and lightest RE 650Where main frame is concerned, Scram 650 is closely related to Interceptor 650, while Classic 650 is more relatable with Super Meteor 650. Where componentry is concerned, it is the opposite. We’re talking about Classic 650 showing less premium components and Scram 650 lapping up more premium hardware.Digital speedo of the upcoming Scram 650Both motorcycles fall under two distinctly different motorcycle umbrellas within RE’s 650cc portfolio. There are stark differences between two umbrellas in Royal Enfield’s 650cc motorcycle portfolio. One umbrella has Interceptor 650 and GT Continental 650, while the other umbrella houses Super Meteor 650 and recently launched Shotgun 650.This bifurcation is important for Royal Enfield and both these umbrellas get different equipment. Classic 650 will join the lower-level and less-equipped 650cc bikes with conventional instrument cluster, RSU telescopic front forks, silver engine bay and the likes. Whereas Scram 650 is a more premium offering with USD telescopic front forks, black engine bay and RE’s new Tripper Dash screen.Side view of the Scram 650Scram 650 gets a single-sided exhaust and knobby tyres with a minimal tail, while Classic 650 goes full regalia where classic-ness is concerned. Both motorcycles come equipped with the same 648cc parallel twin engine that is capable of developing around 47 bhp peak power and 52 Nm peak torque, mated to a 6-speed gearbox and a slipper clutch. Engine tuning might differ between both bikes to suit their respective character. More

      Honda CB350X ADV Renders Based On Leaked Sketch – Africa Twin Colours

      by

      Honda CB350X ADV RenderHonda is working on a new adventure motorcycle based on the CB350 – Based on the leaked patent sketch, here is a digital renderRenowned Japanese automaker, Honda, continues to make waves in India’s motorcycle market, particularly with its dominance in scooters and commuter motorcycles. Seeking to expand its premium single-cylinder portfolio, Honda is rumoured to be working on a new adventure motorcycle, based on the CB350. Say Namaste to Honda CB350X ADV Render.Honda CB350X ADV RenderedRecent design patents from Honda showcase an adventure bike and a scrambler, both based on the CB350 platform, sparking anticipation for their potential launch in India. Pratyush Rout has visualized the Honda CB350X ADV based on these leaked designs, presenting a rendering that draws comparisons to the Royal Enfield Himalayan.Honda CB350 ADV Design Sketch Patent LeaksWhile some critics may point out similarities with Royal Enfield designs, the render features a purposeful and robust ADV/tourer motorcycle based on leaked design elements. The design includes a muscular fuel tank with tank shrouds, a circular LED headlight similar to the CB350 series, a tall windscreen, knuckle protectors on the handlebar, and a distinctive front beak. Colour themes are based on Honda’s flagship ADV, the Africa Twin.Honda CB350 ADV boasts a spacious rider’s seat and a stepped, split pillion seat, accompanied by a grab rail that doubles as an integrated luggage rack. The up-swept exhaust can, potentially identical to the standard CB350, complements the overall design. The tail light and rear turn indicators may also share similarities with the CB350 RS.Honda CB350X ADV RenderStrategic Market PositioningHonda’s foray into the single-cylinder adventure bike segment aims to capitalize on the current trend, competing with models like the Royal Enfield Himalayan, Triumph Scrambler 400X, BMW G 310 GS, KTM 390 Adventure, and Yezdi Adventure. Rather than leveraging the CB300R platform, Honda takes a unique approach by basing its offering on the CB350 platform.Honda CB350X ADV RenderThe envisioned motorcycle is anticipated to weigh approximately 195 kg, deliver 20.78 bhp and 30 Nm torque, equipped with a 5-speed gearbox, air-cooled SOHC 4V engine, and conventional suspension. Expect it to be priced around Rs. 2.4 lakh (ex-showroom).At this price point, the CB350X ADV will position itself in proximity to competitors like the Triumph Scrambler X and Royal Enfield Himalayan 450, albeit with potentially superior hardware and performance. With a speculated launch towards the end of 2024, the Honda CB350X ADV might not only cater to the domestic market but also hold export potential, following in the footsteps of the recently launched Honda CB350 Classic.
