      2021 Bajaj Pulsar RS 200 New TVC Released – Racing Thrill Unleashed

      by

      2021 Bajaj Pulsar RS 200
      Bajaj Pulsar RS200 competes against other faired sportsbikes such as KTM RC 200, Yamaha R15 V3 and Suzuki Gixxer SF 250

      RS200 already received a mild facelift last year when it got upgraded to BS6 emission norms. It is offered in a solitary trim level at a price pegged at Rs 1.52 lakh (ex-showroom). There has been no change in its design ever since it first went on sale in the country.
      The bike continues to sport a fully-faired styling, the only one apart from the flagship Pulsar 220F in Bajaj Auto’s entire lineup. Other design highlights in Pulsar RS200 include a dual-projector headlamp setup, twin running LED DRLs and an odd-looking LED tail lamp.
      New TVC
      Bajaj has recently released a new TV commercial on its YouTube channel. The latest TVC shows two mules of the faired sporty commuter bike in the shadows. Tag line of the commercial is – Racing Thrill Unleashed.
      Currently, the flagship Pulsar is available with three paint options namely Burnt Red, Metallic Pearl White and Pewter Grey. Other than getting new colour schemes and BS6 upgrade, no new updates either cosmetic or mechanically have been made in Pulsar RS200 since launch.
      [embedded content]
      Features & Powertrain
      Coming to features, the sporty commuter motorcycle is offered with gizmos such as a semi-digital instrument cluster, LED turn indicators, a service-due indicator and nothing much. For added visibility at dark, Bajaj offers backlit switches in RS200.
      It has been built on a perimeter frame which is suspended on a chunky telescopic fork at front and a gas-charged mono-shock. Anchoring duties are handled by a single 300mm disc at front and a 230mm disc at rear while a safety net is provided by a dual-channel ABS as standard.
      Pulsar RS200 derives its power from a 199.5cc single-cylinder liquid-cooled motor which pushes out 24.2 bhp at 9750 rpm and a peak torque of 18.7 Nm at 8000rpm. This unit is mated to a 6-speed gearbox. The bike is rated to return a claimed fuel efficiency of 35 kmpl while it can clock a top speed of 141 kmph.
      Upcoming Pulsar Models
      The Chakan-based bikemaker is looking to expand its Pulsar range of motorcycles by introducing new models with different configurations. This includes a new bike in the quarter-litre segment.
      Specimens of the bike were recently spotted testing on roads although ambiguity remains regarding the expected powertrain on offer. Some experts believe that Bajaj might offer a new 250cc air-cooled motor while logic dictates that the company could utilise the 249cc single-cylinder liquid-cooled engine which powers Dominar 250 and KTM 250 series.

      Bajaj Platina 110 ABS Launch Price Rs 66k – Rs 1k More Than H Gear

      by

      Bajaj Platina 110 ABS
      Platina is the first 110 cc commuter motorcycle in India to get ABS

      In a move that could make rivals sit up and take notice, Bajaj has launched its popular Platina 110 motorcycle with ABS. This will be a segment-first feature that could attract customers looking for improved safety.
      As per rules, ABS is mandatory only for two-wheelers above 125cc. For below 125cc motorcycles, it is mandatory to have combined breaking system (CBS). Platina 110 current model has CBS. It has 240mm disc at the front and 110 mm drum brake at the rear with CBS. The ABS variant will have single-channel ABS integrated with the front disc brake.
      Bajaj Platina 110 ABS other updates
      To ensure that the ABS variant does not become too pricey, Bajaj has downgraded some of the features available with current model (Platina H-gear). For example, the semi-digital instrument console has been replaced with a completely analogue unit. Platina 110 ABS has analogue speedometer and odometer unit on the left, which also displays the ABS icon. On the right, there is analogue fuel gauge along with other standard indictors.
      In comparison, the semi-digital instrument console on-board Platina 110 H-gear model has features such as trip meter, gear shift indicator, low battery indicator and clock. Another cost cutting measure is a standard sticker that replaces the 3D ‘Platina’ logo on the fuel tank.
      Bajaj Platina 110 ABS
      To create a distinct identity for Platina 110 ABS variant, Bajaj has introduced some visual updates. Key among them is white coloured alloy wheels.  It is to note that other Bajaj motorcycles such as the premium Pulsar RS and NS range have this type of styling. In other updates, turn indicators have been replaced with sleeker units and there is ‘ABS’ branding in gold shade.
      Bajaj Platina 110 ABS engine
      Bajaj Platina 110 ABS will continue using the 115.45 cc, single cylinder, electronic injection engine that is capable of generating 8.6 PS of max power at 7000 rpm and 9.81 Nm of peak torque at 5000 rpm. It is mated to a 5-speed gearbox.
      Suspension system will also be the same as earlier; telescopic units at the front and Nitrox gas canister based rear suspension. Bajaj Platina 110 ABS will continue to offer superior comfort to users, which has been one of its primary USPs.
      Bajaj introducing a premium safety feature in its 110 cc monocycle is commendable. However, it remains to be seen if the strategy translates into sale volumes. Platina 110 ABS is priced at Rs 65,926 while the current model H Gear retails at a starting price of Rs 64,685 (ex-showroom, New Delhi). Price is an important factor in this segment, so not all customers may be willing to pay a higher price.
      Mr Sarang Kanade, President – Domestic Motorcycles Business Unit, Bajaj Auto Ltd said, “The new Platina 110 ABS offers unmatched safety by offering riders complete control over unforeseen braking scenarios. We hope that millions of Indians who ride across varying terrains & roads of the country would take cognizance of the need to keep themselves & their loved ones safe and upgrade to the best-in-segment braking technology. The brand Platina has an unmatched proposition of Comfort with over 7 million satisfied customers as a testament to its segment-leading attributes and now with the addition of ABS, it remains a generation ahead of its competitors.” More

      Cosmetic Updates
      The model in these pics is seen sporting a grey paint scheme with black and white body graphics. However, the most notable variation from the regular Platina 110 is a pair of spoked alloy wheels painted in white. Apart from these visual add-ons, an ABS kit and few more cosmetic updates, it is still essentially the same bike.
      2021 Bajaj Platina 110 ABS
      Feature Updates
      The new alloy wheels take inspiration from the brand’s premium Pulsar RS and NS range of models. The rear shock absorbers along with ‘Platina’ and ‘ABS’ branding are painted in golden colour. Further, all four turn indicators have been reworked and now look sharper and sleeker.
      Interestingly, this model gets an analogue instrument cluster against the standard model’s semi-digital console. It consists of an analogue speedometer, analogue fuel gauge, analogue odometer and all basic tell-tale lights.
      2021 Bajaj Platina 110 ABS
      Platina 110 ABS is also expected to feature updated hardware in the form of ComforTec technology with nitrox SoS suspension. It is also expected to receive broader rubber footpads and a longer seat for improved rider and pillion comfort.
      Other updates include a 3D logo with new decals, tubeless tyres and a better quality saddle with well-cushioned and well-foamed seats. Other than this, there will be no other changes on Platina 110 ABS.
      Engine Specs
      It will still draw its energy from a BS6 compliant 115cc single-cylinder, air-cooled motor that kicks out 8.44 bhp of power and 9.81 Nm of peak torque. This unit is mated to a 5-speed gearbox. Suspension duties are handled by telescopic forks upfront and twin shocks at rear. The earlier model with a semi-digital console also came with a ‘Gear-Shift-Guide’ which was essentially a gear shift indicator.
      2021 Bajaj Platina 110 ABS
      Platina 110 H-Gear made its debut in India a couple of years back and is currently retailed in two trims- drum brake and disc brake. It is currently offered at a starting price of Rs 64,301 (ex-showroom) and it is expected that after the launch of the ABS variant the base trim might be discontinued. Although Bajaj hasn’t revealed prices of the new ABS variant of Platina 110, we expect it to be priced around Rs 70k (ex-showroom).
