Bajaj has taken sports biking to whole next level with Bajaj Pulsar AS150.But the attempt is there to look adventurous.
The design offers some bits of an’adventure’ feel with the quarter fairing blending well with the sculpted tank and the split seats.
It makes the smaller AS bike unique is the fact that this is the first bike to house the new air-cooled 150cc motor, as opposed to the liquid cooled 200cc single-pot mill that we’ve been familiarized with in the NS 200 and RS 200.
Coming to the power unit in the AS 150, the long-stroke, air-cooled, carbureted, single-pot 149.5cc motor which pumps 16.7bhp and 13Nm of torque is all-new, and not a re-bored version of the older motor. The new engine is up on power by 2bhp and 0.5Nm of torque over the previous generation Pulsar 150. The AS 150 tips the scales at 143kg making it a kilo lighter than the previous generation bike.The seating position is similar to the 200NS that is to say that it’s a good balance between sporty and comfortable.
