I am G Sai Krishna from kphb colony Hyderabad. Being a student I also have a dream to own a bike. After a big comparison between unicorn and pulsar150 finally I went for pulsar 150 . I bought this bike 6months back and it complete 10000kms recently.it gives me a mileage of 54 because I go at a speed of 50-60km/hr. this beast never troubled me during long rides.
A long drive to Nagarjuna Sagar approximately 500km of single day journey . after going for such a long jorney there are no signs of back pain but a minor pain at my back thighs. as far as I know I thought pulsar 150 can reach a speed of 115km//hr but surprisingly my bike reached 124km/hr. on the highway road to Nagarjuna sagar there is a race between my pulsar 150cc and my friends Apache 180cc with pillions on both the bikes. both the bikes went at same speed ie 124km/hr.
I ride the bike at a speed between 50-60km/hr and everyday I travel for 40km to college and home. bike is very good at looks and mileage and a low maintenance bike compared to other company bikes.we went through forest areas, hill areas and I never faced any problems with the bike during those dangerous journeys. excellent bike for a middle class boy who is in extreme hunger to own a bike.in terms of power pulsar 150 can overtake yamaha fz(first model) . remember start the bike using kick start for the first run of the bike everyday.
Do not give your bike at Bajaj service centre especially at MGB BAJAJ HYDERNAGAR HYDERABAD they dont even check the condition of brakes and carburetor.after the three free services of bike dont keep your bike in the hands of service centres. The routine service is just eyewash and there is not much done by them. They don’t even follow the instructions written on the back of free service receipts. go for a good mechanic at your locality.
CAUTION: THESE SERVICE ISSUES MAY VARY FROM CENTER TO CENTER
PROS; good looking, mileage, low maintenance, comfortable for long rides, good grip on roads and control, no vibrations and shakes even at high speeds.
