    New Bajaj Triumph Motorcycle Spied – Riding Posture Revealed

    Triumph has been eyeing the entry-level segment for a long time and with Bajaj, a new product is expected soonNew Bajaj Triumph Motorcycle SpiedBajaj has always wanted to increase their share in 200 cc to 500 cc segment. Under Bajaj, we only get the Dominar 400. They do have offerings via KTM in this segment. But despite that, this segment is still dominated by Royal Enfield with its slew of 350 cc bikes like Bullet, Classic and Meteor and also, Himalayan and Scram 411.When Dominar was launched, Bajaj took a dig at Royal Enfield saying not to buy “Haathis” (elephants) as most Enfields wouldn’t properly go and if they did, wouldn’t properly stop and also weighed a lot with no gizmos. But in reality, Indians still bought Haathis. I don’t blame them. If the Haathi looked as elegant and charming as Royal Enfield bikes, why not?Bajaj Triumph Motorcycle SpiedTo add salt to the wound, Hunter 350 is launched at a lower price point too. At the same time, Triumph seems to be following the same route BMW Motorrad took to foray into entry-level bikes along with TVS. So, British brand Triumph has partnered up with Bajaj to co-develop a platform that would benefit both companies. A match made in Heaven? Maybe.Last time we covered the Bajaj Triumph bike, it was papped fully undisguised. The new spy shots reveal mostly the same, but give more details too. For starters, this upcoming motorcycle will be offered in two versions, a street and a scrambler. Both get separate design elements to suit the genre. The video below shows riding posture on the upcoming Bajaj Triumph motorcycle, while it was spied near Pune.Upcoming Bajaj Triumph Scrambler Motorcycle – RenderBoth test mules look production ready and we can expect a launch very soon. They shoot for the timeless retro classic look and we should say, looks quite handsome. Their design is reminiscent of Triumph’s Bonneville lineup. They get a single-piece seat, neat grab rail at the rear, round headlights and indicators, bar-end mirrors and a lot more.In terms of cycle parts, they get USD front forks and mono-shock at back, 19” and 17” alloy wheels at the front and back, single discs at both ends with dual-channel ABS, slightly rear-set footpegs and more. They both get LED lighting all-around, a circular speedo and a squarish digital display beside it housed in the same console.What To Expect?We don’t know the exact engine specs at the moment. But looking at the engine on test mules, looks like a single-cylinder unit with liquid cooling and a single exhaust setup. Looking at the size of it, it is likely to be a 300 to 400cc unit. And might make around 35 bhp and 30 Nm of torque. It may get a 6-speed gearbox too.New Bajaj Triumph Motorcycle SpiedLooking at their lean and athletic frame, they are likely to weigh around 170 to 180 kg. Both bikes will be manufactured here in India to get the production costs down. These motorcycles will be sold under Triumph branding. Bajaj might launch a different version of their own branding in the future. This probably will be a similar story, what we have seen with Bajaj-KTM. First KTM branded motorcycles were launched, and based on them, Bajaj launched their own Pulsar motorcycles.When launched, Bajaj Triumph motorcycle will compete against Royal Enfield, Honda, Yezdi, Jawa, TVS, BMW offerings falling into the same ring. Launch will take place in 2023.Source More

    New Pulsar P150 First Walkarund – Vs Apache 160, Unicorn, FZ 15, Gixxer

    Suzuki Gixxer 155 makes 13.41 bhp of power and is the most expensive motorcycle in the list at Rs. 1.3 lakhNew Bajaj Pulsar P150For Bajaj, Pulsar 150 is ground zero. This is where Bajaj’s journey towards desirable motorcycles began. One that raised the pulse of Indians and established an entire segment around it. Now that this legend is back as Pulsar P150 in a new avatar by shedding 10 kg in the gym, how much does this affect its rival’s pulse? Let’s take a look.This is the 3rd generation of Pulsar 150 and is a lot sharper than the second generation. After a decade of changing stickers, Bajaj has finally changed the look of this legend and has revised its features list as well. That said, Pulsar P150 does not resemble the N series of Pulsars which is its premium line.Pulsar P150 Vs Unicorn Vs FZ 15 Vs Apache 160 Vs Gixxer 155We now get projector headlights, underbelly exhaust, a monoshock rear suspension, a USB charger and some more. But are these enough to challenge its arch-rival TVS Apache RTR 160 2V and others like Honda Unicorn, Suzuki Gixxer 155 and Yamaha FZ? Take a look at the specs sheet below and see what’s what.At 15.31 bhp, Apache is the most powerful of the bunch, followed by P150 with 14.29 bhp and FZ is least powerful at 12.2 bhp. Despite its low power figure, Honda Unicorn 160 has the most torque at 14 Nm. Yamaha FZ makes 13.5 Nm, but that figure comes up at just 5,500 RPM. Newly launched Pulsar P150 makes 13.5 Nm at 6,000 RPM. New Pulsar can be seen in the first look walkaround video below, credited to Moto Vlogz.[embedded content][embedded content]All motorcycles get a 5-speed gearbox that powers the rear wheel. At 1,352 mm, Pulsar P150 has the longest wheelbase followed by Unicorn and Gixxer at 1,335 mm. Unicorn has highest ground clearance at 187 mm and highest seat height as well, measured at 798 mm. Apache offers 180 mm of ground clearance while others boast of a figure around 160 mm.Despite Pulsar P150 losing 10 kg of weight, at 140 kg, it is still no match for FZ at 135 kg. Other contenders weigh around 140 kg as well. Pulsar P150 leads the segment with 14L fuel tank while Unicorn and FZ get 13L and Apache and Gixxer get 12L only.Hardware ComponentsOwing to its commuter-ish appeal, Unicorn sports the skinniest tyres. Pulsar P150 and Apache RTR 160 sport 90/90-17 at front and 110/80-17 at the rear with top-spec models. That said, flexing their leg muscles, both FZ and Gixxer get 100/80-17 at front and a fat 140/60-17 at the rear. Unicorn is the only one to not offer rear disc brakes even as an option.Bajaj Pulsar P150 Vs RivalsBoth Gixxer and FZ offer rear disc brakes as standard, while it is optional with Pulsar and Apache. All bikes except Apache sports rear monoshock and all of them sport front telescopic forks. Except for Unicorn, every other motorcycle packs a digital instrument cluster, LED headlight and LED taillight. While Pulsar P150 packs a USB charger, Apache offers ride modes and even connected features.Pricing is very interesting as Suzuki Gixxer 155 is by far the priciest of this bunch at Rs. 1.3 lakh, followed by TVS Apache RTR 160 2V at up to Rs. 1.25 lakh, Yamaha FZ priced up to Rs. 1.21 lakh, Bajaj Pulsar P150 priced up to Rs. 1.19 lakh and lastly, we have Honda Unicorn 160 priced at 1.04 lakh. Pulsar P150 forms a middle ground as it offers decent features, performance and is decently priced and decently kitted out as well. Will that be enough to recreate the charm of OG Pulsar 150? Might very well be. More

    New Bajaj Pulsar 150cc Launch Price Rs 1.17 L – 10 Kg Lighter, 5 Colours

    Pulsar 150 used to be the least expensive of the Pulsar range, but that spot is now taken by Pulsar 125New Bajaj Pulsar 150ccPulsar is the most successful range of motorcycles that ever rolled out of Bajaj plant. We say this because a lot of motorcycles have come and gone but only a few have stuck till now. Pulsar is among the brands that stuck while Discover and XCD series didn’t. One look at the sales charts, you can immediately say that Pulsar series far outsell both Apache series by TVS and FZ series by Yamaha.Being “The Fastest Indian”, Pulsar series has immense popularity and a cult following in the country and also in various global markets. A Pulsar 125 might oversell a Pulsar 150 today. But Pulsar 150 is the king of Pulsars if taken into account its role in establishing the brand since its inception. So, Bajaj has updated this legend to compete with rivals for MY2022. Let’s take a look.2022 Pulsar 150 – New Design & LooksBajaj has completely overhauled the design of the Pulsar 150 in this update. The new design language makes the Pulsar P150 sportier, sharper and lighter. It has a new aerodynamic 3D front that embodies sculptural purity and sports a dynamic interplay of metalised, dual colours. The single-disc variant allows a more upright stance, while the twin-disc variant has a sportier stance and comes with a split seat.A dynamic tank profile is contrasted with a thin waistline that extends to a contoured seat profile. Along with a 790mm seat height, the proportions are made for rider comfort. With a new mono-shock rear suspension, and an underbelly exhaust positioned near the bike’s centre of gravity, the design ensures better balance and handling – making it one of the most manoeuvrable bikes in its class.New Bajaj Pulsar 150ccAlong with these significant upgrades, there is a 10-kg reduction in weight (for the twin-disc variant), which means an 11% increase in the power-to-weight ratio, thus enhancing the sporty creds of the bike even further.New Bajaj Pulsar 150cc SpecsThe Pulsar P150 is powered by a new 149.68cc engine, which gives best-in-class power and instantaneous throttle response. It delivers a peak power of 14.5 Ps @ 8500 RPM and a maximum torque of 13.5 Nm @ 6000 RPM. Most importantly, 90% of the torque is available across the usable RPM range, allowing the motorcycle to deliver the signature ‘Pulsar rush’ and be the first off the block in every situation. Add to that a superior gear shift and a damper for better NVH management, and you have the most refined Pulsar 150 to date that glides through the city streets with consummate ease.Speaking on the occasion, Rakesh Sharma, Executive Director – Bajaj Auto Ltd., said, “Two decades ago, Pulsar 150 created the genre of sports sporty street motorcycling. With the launch of the all-new Pulsar P150, we have again raised the performance bar! The P150s are a great addition to the new Pulsar platform, which has already seen the launch of the 250s and the dual-channel-ABS-fitted N160. Engineering and design excellence combined with an intimate knowledge of the customer have shaped the Pulsar P150, which is sure to delight its vast customer base!”The Pulsar P150 is attractively priced at Rs 1,19,757 (ex-showroom Delhi) and Rs 1,19,565 (ex-showroom Kolkata) for twin-disc variant and Rs 1,16,755 (ex-showroom New Delhi) and Rs 1,16,563 (ex-showroom Kolkata) for single-disc variant. It will be available in 5 colours for both variants – Racing Red, Caribbean Blue, Ebony Black Red, Ebony Black Blue and Ebony Black White. The motorcycle was launched in Kolkata today and will be rolled out all over the country in the coming weeks.BAJAJ PULSAR P150 SPECIFICATIONSDisplacement – 149.68 ccMax Power – 10.66 kW (14.5 PS) @ 8500 rpmMax Torque – 13.5 Nm @ 6000 rpmTransmission – Constant mesh 5 speedFUEL TANK – 14 LTYRES FrontPulsar 150 Twin Disc – 90/90-17Pulsar 150 Single Disc – 80/100-17TYRES RearPulsar 150 Twin Disc – 110/80-17Pulsar 150 Single Disc – 100/90-17SUSPENSION Front – Telescopic (31 mm)SUSPENSION Rear – MonoshockBRAKES Front – 260 mm Disc, Single Channel ABSBRAKES Rear – Pulsar 150 Twin Disc 230 mm DiscBRAKES Rear – Pulsar 150 Single Disc 130 mm DrumWheelbase – 1352 mmSeat Height – 790 mmGround clearance – 165 mmKerb Weight – 140 kgSeat Type – Pulsar 150 Twin Disc – SplitSeat Type – Pulsar 150 Single Disc – Single ContinuousHandlebar Pulsar 150 Twin Disc – Clip-OnHandlebar Pulsar 150 Single Disc – Single TubularConsole Features – Gear indicator, Clock, Distance-to-empty indicatorHeadlamp – Bi-functional LED projector headlamp with LED pilot lampTail Lamp – LED Tail lamp with Glitter patternMobile Charger- USB connectivity More

    New Bajaj Motorcycle Launch 22nd Nov – Is It Pulsar 150cc ?

    With multiple trademarks filed in recent past, Bajaj has been able to keep the guessing game on about its new bikeModified Pulsar image for illustration purposeLast year, Bajaj had achieved a new milestone when it launched the biggest Pulsar ever, N250 and F250. Apart from being the most powerful Pulsar, the 250 twins also received a new engine and platform, along with other changes. The updates are planned to be introduced with all Pulsar motorcycles, something already evident with N160 that was launched earlier this year in June.It is likely that Bajaj will focus first on upgrading its bestsellers. In that case, there’s a strong possibility of N150 being launched soon. Test mules of N150 have been spotted multiple times in recent months, indicating towards its possible launch. However, going by the number of new trademarks filed by the company, it’s hard to reach a definitive conclusion. Some of the new trademarks filed by Bajaj include Twinner, Pulsar Elan, Pulsar Eleganz and Darkstar.Bajaj-KTM upcoming bikeIn future, Bajaj will be launching multiple new bikes via its partnership with KTM and Triumph. One of the most awaited is a premium electric motorcycle being developed in collaboration with KTM. EVs will start to dominate the automobile sector around 2030-35, which presents significant opportunities for OEMs. Even now, EVs are registering strong growth month after month.As Bajaj-KTM electric motorcycle is being developed from scratch, it will take a couple of years to reach production stage. Bajaj is also expected to launch affordable electric bikes in the future. A dedicated facility for EVs is already operational, where Chetak is currently being manufactured. Upcoming KTM and Husqvarna electric bikes will also be manufactured at this facility. Some EV-like trademark names filed by Bajaj include Dynamo, Tecnica and Technik.New Bajaj Technik, Tecnica – Names of upcoming Electric Scooters based on Chetak?Bajaj-Triumph bikeBajaj-Triumph partnership will spawn new single-cylinder motorcycles in the range of 250cc and 350-450cc. One of these, a roadster, was spotted earlier this year. The roadster could be equipped with a 350cc motor, in which case, it will primarily rival Royal Enfield Meteor 350. A scrambler version is expected to be launched at a later date, which will rival Hunter 350 and Yezdi Scrambler.Triumph’s entry-level roadster has a magnetic profile and has potential to emerge as a strong rival to Royal Enfield bikes. Some key features include all-LED lights, USD front forks, sculpted fuel tank with chrome filler cap, alloy wheels and upswept exhaust. Design inspiration appears to be a mix of Bonneville range and Trident 660.Triumph’s new sub-500cc motorcycle will have to be launched at a competitive price point if it is to challenge market leader Royal Enfield. In case of Bajaj, the company has purchased rights to Vincent Motorcycles. This brand could be used to launch new motorcycles rivalling Royal Enfield.Bajaj can also launch Twinner in future, which could be a twin-cylinder motorcycle. It could come via Bajaj-Triumph collaboration or through KTM. A 490cc parallel-twin motor will be powering KTM’s new 490cc range that will have 490 Adventure, 490 Duke, RC490, and 490 Supermoto/Enduro. The 490cc motor is being developed jointly by Bajaj and KTM. It is possible that Bajaj could use this platform to launch its Pulsar 500cc Twinner bike. More

    Bajaj Pulsar 125 Carbon Fibre Edition Vs Std Variant – Walkaround

    Other than its stickers, Pulsar 125 Carbon Fibre Edition doesn’t bring anything new to the tableBajaj Pulsar Carbon Edition. Image – Biker Prakash ChoudharyRoyal Enfield motorcycles have stood the test of time. It has a timeless design that has aged gracefully. Conversely, one can say that it has stayed relevant today as there were not many choices around back in the day.What if we told you that the Pulsar design that we see and adore today, was conceived in 2008? I personally own a 2010 model that has a similar design as the one sold today. Over 14 years. That’s how long Pulsar design has been around. Bajaj is set to update its Pulsar lineup and test mules are taking rounds time and time again.In the meantime, to keep sales on the boil, Bajaj has launched Pulsar 125 Carbon Fibre Edition in India. Speaking of sales, Pulsars collectively sold 1,13,870 units in October 2022. Most of the numbers are likely from smaller capacity Pulsars. So, it is important to keep them fresh.Pulsar 125 Carbon Fibre Edition LaunchedBajaj has completely overhauled the design of Pulsar 125 Carbon Fibre Edition. Bought it? Pfft. There’s not a single thing that is changed from the regular model except for stickers. When parked side by side, the regular model and Carbon Fibre Edition model differ only in their graphics. Take a look at Biker Prakash Chaudhary’s video below.[embedded content][embedded content]Bajaj is offering a belly pan with a single-piece seat variant of Carbon Fibre Edition as well. Regular model gets a belly pan only with a split seat option. It enhances the bike’s appeal and makes it look a lot more muscular. Both Pulsar 125s still get halogen headlights and turn indicators while taillights are LEDs. They both get the same tank guard too.Owing to its name, Pulsar 125 Carbon Fibre Edition gets carbon fibre stickers on various places around the motorcycle. Mainly on the front fender, something that Pulsar 150 also gets, fuel tank, side body panels, tank extensions, headlight cowl, near rear subframe and more. Fuel tank now gets slightly different graphics than the regular Pulsar 125.Price & SpecsBajaj is offering Pulsar 125 Carbon Fibre Edition in three different colour schemes. One is silver, which is revealed in the video. Other two are Blue and Red. Carbon Fibre Edition is available in both single-piece seat options and split-seat options. Former is priced at Rs. 89,254 and the latter is priced at Rs. 91,642 (prices ex-sh).Belly PanPulsar 125 Carbon Fibre Edition remains identical mechanically. It is powered by a 124.4 cc single-cylinder engine that makes 11.64 bhp of power at 8,500 RPM and 10.8 Nm of torque at 6,500 RPM. It is mated to a 5-speed gearbox. This engine is air-cooled and can deliver around 50 to 60 km/l. More

    Bajaj DARKSTAR Name Registered – Pulsar Based Adventure Motorcycle ?

    Bajaj Auto is working on launching range of adventure motorcycles – It is likely to be christened DARKSTARBajaj registers the name DARKSTARADVs are all the rage right now in 2W space. Even though they won’t challenge the sheer sales of a Splendor or an Activa, they are one of the most sought-after types of motorcycles. Especially for Indian conditions with not-too-delightful road conditions.In 4W PVs, pseudo SUVs have sprung up like clockwork. Similarly, in motorcycles, we have pseudo ADVs like Honda CB200X and the likes. These look like ADVs and offer a good stance, but don’t come equipped with off-road-worthy hardware.Bajaj Darkstar Name RegisteredBajaj is no stranger to pseudo ADVs. We got the AS200 which is well forgotten today. Dubbed as Adventure Sports, it was based on an NS200 and got a bikini fairing of sorts. Recently, Bajaj Darkstar name was trademarked which is speculated to be the Indian bike maker’s next ADV or pseudo-ADV based on Pulsar 250 platform.The trademark filed by Bajaj Auto has passed formality checks. Darkstar is likely to be the name of an upcoming motorcycle. There have been reports in the past which said that Bajaj is working on launching ADV motorcycles. It is likely that Darktsar is an ADV based on the new Pulsar 250cc platform.Bajaj DarkStar Name RegisteredWith demand for ADVs on the rise, a manufacturer like Bajaj Auto would not want to miss the opportunity. After the AS200, Bajaj never ventured into ADVs again. Currently, Hero XPulse 200 is the most accessible ADV / off-roader on the market. We also have Honda CB200X, Suzuki V-Strom SX 250, Royal Enfield Himalayan, and more.Bajaj already offers a wide variety of Pulsars today. We have regular Pulsar 125, a sporty NS125, Pulsar 150, NS160, recently launched N160, NS200, RS200 and lastly, based on the new 250cc platform, Pulsar N250 and F250. An ADV based on this new 250cc platform would make Bajaj’s portfolio stronger and hence reach a more customer base.What To Expect?This is not the first time an ADV by Bajaj is making news. There have been multiple rumours before, but nothing materialised. If Darkstar ADV does become a reality, there is a high possibility of it being offered with the new Pulsar 250cc platform instead of the KTM-derived 250cc engine that does duties on Dominar 250.Cycle parts are likely to be identical to the Pulsar F250. We do hope Bajaj considers offering a 19” front and 17” rear spoked wheel combo and slightly longer travel suspension forks. It would make a world of difference in beaten paths and will stand out from pseudo ADVs. We don’t expect 21” and 18” combo offered with XPulse 200 and even Rally Kit, even though it would be very nice.Pulsar 250cc twins make 24.5 PS and 2.15 Nm and are coupled to a 5-speed gearbox. It gets a slipper clutch and dual-channel ABS that are likely to be offered on the supposedly upcoming ADV from Bajaj. Until the company officially reveals further info, Bajaj Darkstar name will be a mystery. More
