Bajaj Auto has launched the MY2017 Pulsar
RS200 that comes painted in new colour scheme dubbed the Racing
Blue Edition. The bike is priced at Rs. 1.47 lakh for the non-ABS variant,
while the ABS version gets a price tag of Rs. 1.62 lakh (both on-road prices,
Pune).
Last year the bike maker launched the Pulsar RS200
with Blue and White livery in Turkey. But the newly introduced model comes
distinctive than that as it dons a completely Blue painted front wheel and a
Black painted rear wheel. The motorcycle also comes wearing the Blue and White
paint scheme on the fairing, fuel tank and tail section.
Apart from the new paint scheme, the Bajaj Pulsar
RS200 Racing Blue Edition won’t get any other mechanical change. The company is
yet to reveal further detail about this model, but expect it to retain the same
features like monoshock rear suspension, clip-on handlebar, twin projector
lamps, part-analogue part-digital console, single channel ABS, telescopic front
forks, etc. Power source of the bike is also expected to remain same.
The flagship Pulsar model takes power from a 199.5 c
single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine that is mated to a 6-speed transmission.
The engine churns out 24.5 bhp of peak power at 9,750 rpm and 18.6 Nm of peak
toque at 8,000 rpm. A 300 mm front disc and a 230 mm rear disc do the braking
duty in this bike.
