The Bajaj Pulsar N160 has been delighting riders across India with its sporty appearance, smooth engine and utility. A combination of speed and comfort, it is designed to transport people to work and ride over the weekend.
Engine and Ride Quality
The Pulsar N160 is powered by a 164.82cc oil cooled motor that generates 16 PS of power and 14.65 Nm of torque. The 5-speed transmission enables the transitions between the gears to be fluid and the fuel-injection provides the same performance and efficiency to the transmission. The ride is stable and has good responsiveness whether you are stuck in traffic or riding along highways.
Design and Comfort
The bike has a muscular tank, sharp LED projector headlamp, long tail section to give it a bold streetfighter appearance. It has a seat height of 795 mm and its kerb weight is about 154 kg, hence, many riders can use it. The riding position is not straddling or uncomfortable, and it is perfect for everyday life.
Safety and Features
To improve the braking mechanism in case of unexpected deceleration, Pulsar N160 has been equipped with dual-channel ABS in some models. It also has an electronic board with Bluetooth connectivity where the rider can get call notifications, message notifications, and turn-by-turn directions. These functions are convenient but they do not overload the rider.
Mileage and Efficiency
The certified Pulsar N160 mileage as tested by the ARAI is around 51.6 kmpl, but the real mileage is not much less at 47 kmpl, depending on the mode of usage. The tank holds a 14-litre of fuel, an aspect that some long-range riders like because they do not have to go to the petrol pump as often.
