SInce the bike has just launched also I haven’t tested it personally so very little I can say about my personal experience. However, I have my friends who have gazed the look and feel of the bike.
This is Bajaj, once more, playing the game it’s learnt, offer more products and profit from the slight overlap and consequent cannibalisation. The Discover chassis grows up a little to host the Pulsar 150 DTSi engine, giving rise to a machine that is clearly a stylistic evolution of the Discover school of design. I’m not convinced about the XCD-ish shape of the tank extensions, also I do appreciate the LED tips that replaces the stalk-type indicators.
Similarly, I don’t know if the ultra-sleek tail design is a production-ready design or not, but it does not looks good because it effects the stability of the bike. In terms of positioning, the Pulsar 150 is likely to evolve into a more serious machine, with a clear sporty intent and therefore, a higher price tag, marginally, of course. According to Rajiv Bajaj, the P150 will become more of a sport-tourer (yes, I know the press release says the exact opposite) of sorts, while the Disco 150 will be the commuter. He also mentioned that other companies had tried to engineer this stratified approach to the 150 commuter/specialist,
