Voila' the crowned 50-50 bk the 1ly enemy of p150

Hope you had a good day. Actually I have an ambition(am) 133. well it has what it needs to be a high stakes bike but belive me it aint got the stuff like a pulsating ride like the pulsar 150 or 180. I can say that the gear ratios in the am, are placed too closee. if you are on drag O combat at traffic signals, the it surley takes its claim but after 3rd gear the whole damn engine dies out like the gear ratios are too close.


I and my frend exchanged p150 and am133 for 4 days. after 4 days when I rode my am, I feel like something that was supposed to be there is missing. I mean to say that pulsar was noisy but it really begs u to twist the throttle like a stallion. where as ambition of course has noisless jerk free ride but it does not tempt you to try any thing.. u just start the bike put 5th gear and stay at 50. and u get 55KMPL.


but after riding pulsar with it’s excellent gear ratios, u feel like u had a racer in your hand. ambition is for the guys who dont like to overtake.


mty frend was pleased with the smoothness and the shocks of ambi but he never gave any comment on the real machinary. I guess I will buy p180 next year.


But the fact of the matter is, , !! nearly 82% of 2 wheler traffic in india is below the below 100-110 Cc segment. The real advantages of a pulsar over ambition is cut and clear and they are as follows.




  1. Pick up




  2. features(for name sake)




  3. better manuverability






Now here is where ambition stands out.




  1. Suspension is just at it’s best when you have a pilion.




  2. The riding posture is fit for all ppl. (fat and thin)




  3. The Quality of the switchgear and accesories are Far far better than pulsar




  4. Pick up keeps you safe, , does not tempt you to play rash, and then if it comes to rash>>> gives 100% safe and controlable pick up




  5. Milege has been at 55 -59 since feb 03 when I bought it. and has NEVER dropped!




  6. Has the SMOOTHEST ride in INDA (can say next to bullets)




  7. Long and hard key (not like a short and ’’soon to wear out’’ like of pulsar)




  8. one word that pulsar DOES NOT have is QUALITY.
