Hey dude,
This discussion is related to Bajaj Pulsar 150 DTSi only. I don’t know about the 180ccc sibling.
What prior experience does Baja have about manufacturing bikes???
Bikes are not like those dumb scooters. Its a serious business.
But Hero Honda are into business from long time............
TEST DONE BY 6 people:::highway:::60km testing:::
Answer this to yoursef........
1)You wanna crush your balls?
2)You wanna ride a low quality, unreliable bike??
3)You don’t mind about the comfort???
4)Don’t you have power to kick a bike’s engine????
If you answer is yes for any of these, then go in for a HONDA ACTIVA. The best girly vehicle.
Coming to point. These are the Cons in the bike.
1)
The quality of the parts are very poor sub-standard. The speedometer, tachometer, accelarator. the engine...................
2)
The foot rest is very close to crash guard and causes leg, knee pain on long journey.
3)
The engine has some serious problem. the tachometer shows changing RPM when the bike is stand still and even if you don’t touch the accelarator.
4)
The twin spark plugs is total BULLSHIT. Why the hell a 150cc(144cc to be precise) bike need 2 spark plug It just doesn’t serve the purpose of efficiency for such a tiny engine right?
5)
The rear braking is really bad and tends to slip of the track often. (For lighter commuters)
6)
The bike at higher speeds tends to just give up. Just seems to strain a lot........
7)
Handling problem
Pros
1)
Higher mileage (nearly 10-12km more compared to CBZ)
2)
Better head lamp
3)
Good carburettor (but the engine is still immature and novice)
My sincere suggestion is not to go in for a PULSAR 150cc bike atleast at this instance. Its still a new engine and we don’t know aou the hidden problems.
You could go in for Ambition+, Fiero F2 (more mature).
