About Pulsar RS 200
Bajaj Pulsar RS 200 is a sports bike available at a starting price of Rs. 1,71,256 in India. It is available in only 1 variant and 3 colours. The Bajaj Pulsar RS 200 is powered by 199.5cc BS6 engine which develops a power of 24.1 bhp and a torque of 18.7 Nm. With both front and rear disc brakes, Bajaj Pulsar RS 200 comes up with anti-locking braking system. This Pulsar RS 200 bike weighs 166 kg and has a fuel tank capacity of 13 liters.
The Pulsar RS200 is the flagship model in Bajaj’s Pulsar family and it is the only fully-faired motorcycle in the manufacturer’s line-up. Marketed as the fastest Pulsar yet, the Pulsar RS200 is designed to be a compact sportsbike. Unlike other fully-faired motorcycles like the Yamaha YZF-R15, the RS200 doesn’t have as aggressive riding stance as of a super sport motorcycle. The riding position is slightly upright and is suitable for mild touring.
The Pulsar RS200 is powered by same 200cc engine that powers the naked Pulsar NS200. However, in order to suit its sporty character, the powerplant has been tuned to deliver more performance as compared to the NS. This fuel-injected, four-valve, liquid-cooled motor churns out 24.2bhp at 9750rpm and 18.7Nm at 8000rpm. It comes mated to a six-speed gearbox and the rated top speed stands at 140.8kmph.
Cosmetically, the Pulsar RS200 is the most aggressive-looking bike in Bajaj’s portfolio. While the projector lamp was first introduced in the Pulsar 220F, the RS200 gets dual projectors. The overall design cues are quite muscular with several creases and contours making it a very busy design. The exhaust canister is styled quite neatly and compliments the overall motorcycle design.
The Bajaj Pulsar RS200 is available in three paint schemes – Burnt Red, Metallic Pearl White and Pewter Grey. In terms of competition, it goes up against the Yamaha YZF R15 V3.
