Bajaj PulsarIn the current norms of the auto industry, Bajaj Auto has hiked prices of almost all the models across its lineup
The price increment is in the range of Rs 2,000 and Rs 5,000. This is in contradiction to its recent move to slash prices of Dominar 250 by Rs 16,800. The quarter-litre tourer is now offered at a price of Rs 1.54 lakh (ex-showroom).
Most of the other models have faced hikes in their respective prices. This includes Pulsar and Avenger range of models as well. The company’s current flagship model Dominar 400 has also witnessed a price increment of nearly Rs 5,000 and the tourer is now offered at a price of Rs 2.07 lakh (ex-Delhi).
Pulsar Price Hike
Three models of the Pulsar range have experienced a price hike recently. Pulsar NS160 and NS200 have seen hikes of around Rs 2,000 and Rs 4,000 respectively. This means the naked streetfighter siblings are now offered at respective sticker prices of Rs 1.14 lakh and Rs 1.39 lakh.
On the other hand, Pulsar RS200 is now Rs 5,000 more expensive than before and will now be available at Rs 1.62 lakh. This makes it more expensive than Dominar 250. All prices are ex-showroom.

Bajaj, like most other auto manufacturers, is currently on a spree to increase prices of its products. After recently hiking the prices of the Pulsar range of motorcycles, the homegrown bikemaker has now updated the prices of its Dominar 250. But instead of increasing, they have reduced the price by as much as Rs 17k approx.
Dominar Revised Prices
This is the third price revision that Dominar 250 has recorded this year after the first increment in January. After the last price revision, Dominar 250 and Dominar 400 were available at Rs 1.70 lakh and Rs 2.02 lakh respectively (both prices ex-showroom). Now after the price reduction of Dominar 250, its price is now slashed to 1.54 lakh. No such luck if you are planning to buy Dominar 400.
Apart from the change in price, there have been no changes as far as design or performance is concerned. What has changed is that the number of colour options on offer has now reduced to 2, instead of 4 for the Dominar 250. D250 is now only offered with Red or Black colours.
Dominar 400 Touring Edition
Latest spy shots shared by IamaBiker show the Dominar 400 updated with touring accessories. These spy shots were clicked inside Bajaj Auto’s Pune plant where they also have a test track. As per these spy photos, Dominar 400 will get larger flyscreen, knuckle guards finished in body colour while upper part which is bolted on, is finished in same black plastic as the flyscreen.
Bajaj Dominar 400 Touring Edition
It is likely that these are optional additions that Bajaj is planning to launch for their customers. If that is the case, it is likely that existing buyers of both Dominar 250 and Dominar 400 will be able to install these. If Bajaj is planning to launch this as a special Dominar Touring edition, than these accessories will be exclusive to this edition only.
Mechanical Specs
Moving to specifications, Dominar 400 is powered by the same 373.3cc single-cylinder, liquid-cooled DOHC engine that also powers KTM 390 range of motorcycles. This motor kicks out 39.4 bhp at 8,650rpm and 35 Nm of peak torque at 7,000rpm while being paired with a six-speed gearbox with a slipper and assist clutch.
Dominar 250, on the other hand, shares its powertrain with KTM 250 and Husqvarna 250 series of motorcycles. This 248cc single-cylinder liquid-cooled unit is capable of generating 26.6 bhp at 8,500rpm and a peak torque of 23.5Nm at 6,500rpmThis motor is also mated to the same 6-speed gearbox as its 400cc sibling.
Both motorcycles also share the same beam type perimeter frame, however, suspension setup is slightly different. While Dominar 250 uses telescopic forks at front, Dominar 400 gets USD forks at front from the KTM range. Rear suspension of both models comprise a mono-shock unit. Stopping duties on both bikes are handled by disc brakes on both wheels assisted by dual-channel ABS as standard. Bajaj also recently updated the prices of its Pulsar range of motorcycles.

Bajaj is expected to launch the new Pulsar 250 in the festive season later this year competing against other quarter-litre roadsters
Bajaj is developing a new 250cc iteration of Pulsar. This motorcycle could actually become a reality sooner than expected, as the homegrown brand has teased an upcoming motorcycle on its social media platform. It is likely that this could be the upcoming quarter-litre Pulsar.
The latest post uploaded by Bajaj shows an image of a motorcycle hidden behind a flurry of smoke with a caption that read, “Can you guess the newest street machine?”. This could also be a marketing gimmick from the bikemaker and could easily be the latest entrant to the Pulsar family- NS125. The black alloy wheels with white rim stickers along with white accents on engine guard back this claim.
Pulsar 250- Expected Design & Features
Previously, a testing prototype spotted was the naked roadster version of Pulsar 250 which will probably wear the branding of ‘NS’. There is also going to be a faired version with the same mechanical setup onboard which is likely to wear the ‘RS’ branding.
As seen in earlier spy shots, the upcoming bike gets a muscular fuel tank with extended shrouds and bikini fairing. Other notable highlights include an upswept side exhaust, an upright tail section and a split seat setup. Overall body proportions look evidently larger than NS200.
Bajaj Pulsar NS 250 Teaser?
It could feature an all-LED lighting setup and an all-digital instrument console with a full-colour display and Bluetooth connectivity. Bajaj is also expected to offer smartphone connectivity tech in the upcoming bike. This new Pulsar could feature an all-new 250cc motor and will be underpinned by a new platform.
Expected Mechanical Specs
The upcoming Pulsar 250 is likely to be based on a new platform different from the one used in Dominar 250 and KTM 250 Duke. It will draw its energy from a new 248.9cc, fuel-injected, single-cylinder, air-cooled engine. Power and torque outputs are likely to range between Pulsar 220F and Dominar 250. This unit will be linked to a six-speed gearbox with a slipper clutch on offer.
Hardware setup of the bike will comprise telescopic forks at front and a preload-adjustable mono-shock at rear. Braking will be taken care of by disc brakes on both wheels while safety net will be provided by a dual-channel ABS.
The new Pulsar 250 could be hitting showrooms later this year, before the onset of the festive season. Bajaj will pitch the new Pulsar 250 as a premium sporty commuter offering and will be competing against Yamaha FZ25 and FZS25, Suzuki Gixxer 250, KTM Duke 250 and its own sibling Dominar 250. More
