Bajaj Teases Upcoming Fully-Faired Pulsar Motorcycle: RS 200 Facelift or New RS 400?
The Pulsar RS 200, the only model in the Pulsar range that hasn’t received an update yet, is due for a refresh. Expected features will include a fully digital instrument cluster with Bluetooth connectivity and turn-by-turn navigation, LED headlights, and new color options. Although the 199.5cc, liquid-cooled motor with 24.1bhp and 18.7Nm of torque is likely to be carried over, the bike could get design and chassis changes, including the addition of upside-down forks. If priced higher, the updated RS 200 will be similar to the Hero Karizma XMR and Suzuki Gixxer SF 250 models.
Alternatively, the teaser could be a prelude to the launch of the Pulsar RS 400, the more powerful version of the RS 200. The Pulsar RS 400 would borrow its underpinnings from the newly unveiled Pulsar NS400 and is expected to carry aggressive body styling with an aerodynamic fairing along with advanced technology. It would feature a Bluetooth-enabled digital display, all-LED lighting, and track-focused riding modes to boot.
The RS 400 will most likely share the 373.27cc liquid-cooled engine from the already mentioned Dominar 400 and Pulsar NS400, producing 40 PS of power and 35 Nm of torque. Expected with a 6-speed gearbox, slipper clutch, and traction control, the RS 400 should be a stunner to ride, too. Expected features include 43mm USD forks, a Nitrox monoshock with dual-channel ABS, and high-end 17-inch alloy wheels wrapped in grippy rubber.
Although the details are yet to be confirmed by Bajaj, both the RS 200 facelift and RS 400 would be stunners if they get to join the Pulsar family. Whether it be the refined RS 200, or the all-new RS 400, Bajaj’s teaser has spurred the imagination of two-wheeler fanatics considerably. Stay tuned to see what the Pulsar brand has in store moving forward!
