      2022 Bajaj Pulsar RS 250 On New Gen Platform – Render In 6 Colours

      by

      2022 Bajaj Pulsar RS 250 – Render
      Bajaj will be gradually phasing out the older generation Pulsar motorcycles with the new-gen models in the future which may comprise a Pulsar RS 250
      The launch of the new Pulsar 250 siblings- N250 and F250 has set the podium for Bajaj Auto to bring in the new generation Pulsar models. Two decades back when the Pulsar sub-brand was launched, the company started with Pulsar 150 and Pulsar 180. This time around Bajaj has taken a top-to-down approach by launching the biggest model first.
      The Chakan-based bikemaker has revealed that there will be multiple new models based on the new chassis which will be replacing the older generation of Pulsar models. With two iterations of the quarter-litre Pulsar already hitting the market, Bajaj might contemplate a third one by introducing Pulsar RS 250.
      A fully-faired version of Pulsar 250 might complete the flagship lineup of quarter-litre Pulsars. The RS 250 would sit right on top of the Pulsar portfolio as the most premium model followed by the semi-faired F250 and the naked N250. Pulsar 250 has been digitally re-imagined as a fully-faired sports bike by design artist Pratyush Rout wrapped around multiple colour options.
      2022 Bajaj Pulsar RS 250 – Digital Rendering
      The digital renderings of RS 250 show a few visual similarities with its semi-faired sibling like the same single-beam projector headlight flanked by twin LED DRLs. Unlike F250, RS 250 flaunts a fully-faired body that covers most of the internals and running gear and only exposes a part of the engine, frame and rear subframe. The motorcycle also gets a chunkier front mudguard thus enhancing its ‘big bike’ appeal.
      2022 Bajaj Pulsar RS 250 – Render
      Another visible variation is a larger front windscreen which would provide greater protection from wind blasts at higher speeds. The fuel tank in RS 250 looks a lot beefier than the one in F250 or N250 and mimics contemporary high-end sports bikes. The tail section is identical to the current 250cc Pulsars with a slightly raked pillion seat and split grab rails.
      Other visual similarities include a split-seating setup, a stubby exhaust canister, an engine underbelly cowl and a rear tyre hugger. Colour-coded alloy wheel rims have been carried forward from the 250cc siblings that add to the visual appeal of Pulsar RS 660. Design of the alloy wheels has been updated as well which provides further distinction between F250 and RS 250.
      Similar mechanicals to N250, F250
      Powering RS 250 will be the same 249cc single-cylinder, SOHC, two-valve, oil-cooled engine which kicks out 24.5 bhp and 21.5 Nm of peak torque. This engine is paired with a five-speed gearbox with assist and slipper clutch. Hardware configurations of the motorcycle also appear to be identical to the other two siblings.
      This includes a suspension setup that comprises 37mm telescopic forks at front and mono-shock at rear. Braking duties will be handled by single disc brakes at both ends aided by a single-channel ABS. Whether or not Bajaj will introduce such a motorcycle in future can only be verified by the company.

      2022 Yezdi Roadking Adventure And Scrambler Spied On New Video

      by

      2022 Yezdi Roadking Scrambler and AdventureWith Yezdi, Mahindra-owned Classic Legends will have more ammo to take on rivals like Royal Enfield
      After Jawa, Classic Legends is all set to bring back another iconic brand – Yezdi. Manufactured during the 70s to 90s, a number of Yezdi motorcycles were on offer such as Roadking, Classic, CL II, Deluxe, Monarch and Yezdi 175.
      Initially, the company will be launching two motorcycles, a scrambler and an adventure bike. Roadking scrambler will primarily challenge upcoming Royal Enfield Hunter whereas its ADV sibling will rival Himalayan. Both bikes have modern-retro profile with features such as round headlamp and rear-view mirrors, tear-drop shaped fuel tank, and spoke wheels.
      2022 Yezdi Roadking Adventure Video
      Roadking scrambler has a sleek single seat, rear tyre hugger and dual rear shock absorbers. Its ADV sibling packs in features such as large windscreen, raised front fender, dedicated luggage racks at front and rear, split seats and engine and radiator guard.
      With the additional equipment, Roadking ADV appears larger than the scrambler. It also appears to be using a larger front wheel, most likely a 19-inch unit. The rear wheel is a 17-inch unit. In comparison, the scrambler will have 17-inch wheels at both ends. Roadking ADV has swingarm rear suspension. Both bikes will have standard telescopic forks at front.
      [embedded content]
      In terms of styling, both bikes are expected to get sporty graphics. It will primarily be seen on the fuel tank, as these bikes have bare minimum body panels. Expect the bikes to be offered in sprightly colour options.
      A white coloured Roadking ADV was recently spotted that had banded graphics on the fuel tank. Winged Yezdi logo along with engraved ‘Legendary Yezdi’ badging further enhance the bike’s look and feel.
      Yezdi Roadking engine
      Both Yezdi Roadking and ADV are likely to borrow the 334 cc engine from Jawa Perak. The liquid cooled, single-cylinder, DOHC motor generates max power of 30.64 ps and peak torque of 32.74 Nm. It is linked to a constant mesh 6-speed gearbox. However, the engine can be tweaked to suit specific needs of both these bikes.
      2022 Yezdi Roadking Adventure
      Comparing to rivals, upcoming Royal Enfield Hunter will be using the new 350cc engine. This was first introduced with Meteor 350 and recently with all-new Classic 350. It makes 20.2 bhp and 27 Nm. It is mated to a 5-speed constant mesh transmission. In case of Himalayan, the engine used is a 411cc, SOHC, air cooled motor. It makes 24.3 ps and 32 Nm.
      Just like Jawa, enthusiasts are eagerly waiting to witness the resurrection of Yezdi motorcycles. If things work out as expected in terms of design, performance and pricing, Yezdi bikes could become just as popular as their counterparts from Royal Enfield. Both Yezdi bikes are expected to be launched soon. They could be priced anywhere between Rs 1.75 lakh to Rs 2.10 lakh. More

      Bounce Infinity Electric Scooter Launch Date 2nd Dec – Booking At Rs 499

      by

      Bounce Electric ScooterWith a dense battery swapping network, Bounce Infinity users won’t have to worry about things like range or charging
      A pioneer in smart mobility in the country, Bounce is all set to launch its first electric scooter named Infinity. A ‘Made in India’ product, Infinity electric scooter will be equipped with advanced equipment and intelligent features. Today, launch date of the Bounce electric scooter was announced. It will launch on 2nd Dec 2021. Pre-bookings will commence from same date at Rs 499. Deliveries will commence from early next year. Exact date for start of delivery has not been revealed.
      Bounce Infinity Electric Scooter details
      Bounce Infinity has an elegant, aerodynamic profile with features such as round headlamp, retro-styled front fender, LCD instrument console, single piece seat, sporty alloy wheels, prominent grab rail, and edgy tail lamp. The scooter is likely to be offered in single-tone colour options.
      Bounce Infinity utilizes a hub-mounted motor. The scooter has been spotted with telescopic front fork and dual rear suspension. It has single disc brakes at both ends. More technical details are expected to be revealed in coming weeks.
      Bounce Infinity ownership options
      There are two options for users who may want to buy Bounce Infinity electric scooter. First is the conventional way, wherein users pay the full price including the cost of the scooter and battery. In this option, users will have the freedom to remove the Li-ion battery and charge it as per their convenience. This is likely to be preferred by city dwellers living in multi-storeyed buildings. The flip side is that this option will increase overall ownership cost.

      Second option is ‘Battery as a service’, wherein users don’t need to pay for the cost of battery. Whenever they need a fully charged battery, they can swap batteries at any of Bounce’s battery swapping hubs. This system brings the overall experience closer to that of refuelling at a standard fuel station. It not only saves time but also eliminates range anxiety and the hassles of charging an electric scooter.
      Choosing ‘Battery as a service’ option will reduce acquisition cost by as much as 40-50%. Users will only be charged when they swap their battery. With reduced acquisition cost, Bounce Infinity electric scooter will become accessible to a larger customer base. It could also be preferred over rival products that come with non-removable batteries.
      Improving battery swapping infrastructure
      To ensure users can easily find a battery swapping station, Bounce is working to expand its battery-swapping network. The network will cater to both retail customers as well as the company’s ride-sharing business. As of now, Bounce has battery swapping stations at more than 170 locations. This will be expanded all across India in the coming years. Till date, Bounce’s EV fleet has clocked 2 crore kilometres. More than 5 lakh battery swaps have been successfully executed.
      Bounce electric scooter will be manufactured at a plant in Bhiwadi, Rajasthan. This plant was earlier owned and operated by 22Motors. Bounce had acquired this company in 2021 in a 100% stake sale deal. Along with the plant, Bounce has access to intellectual property of 22Motors. The facility can manufacture 1.80 lakh electric scooters per year. Based on demand, Bounce could also setup up its second facility in southern India. More
