2017 Bajaj Pulsar RS200

Bajaj Pulsar RS200 gets a makeover which includes cosmetic as well as minute mechanical upgrades. The engine is now BSIV compliant, an emission norm which all manufacturers will have to comply to by April 1, 2017.

At the heart of the Bajaj Pulsar RS200 is the same 199.5 cc mill which does duty in the new Bajaj Pulsar 200NS, but with fuel injection. Coupled to a 6-speed gearbox the engine is expected to produce the same 24.5 PS of maximum power at 9,750 rpm and 18.6 Nm of peak torque at 8,000 rpm.

The Bajaj Pulsar 200RS is suspended over telescopic forks up front and a mono shock in the rear. Disc brakes are present both in the front (300 mm) and rear (230 mm). A single-channel ABS variant is also offered which is present only in the front wheel unlike the Dominar 400 which gets a dual channel ABS.

The bike also gets a perimeter frame and twin projector headlamps. The 2017 Bajaj Pulsar RS200 is available in two new paint schemes, Racing Blue and Graphite Black. The price has increased by INR 653 of both the trims. The non-ABS version of the Bajaj Pulsar RS200 is priced at INR 121,881 and INR 133,883 for the ABS trim (both prices ex-showroom, Delhi).
