Design and Styling

The bike is equipped with full-LED technology, with a sharp-looking front headlamp and a signature headlamp unit, all of which improve the visibility while adding a stylish look overall.

The equipment is new and intuitive, and therefore is provided with a semi-digital readout, which provides basic data, such as speed, fuel level and odometer. This arrangement has been constructed for ease of comprehension by which riders can readily look upon the road, and yet can still easily refer to their statistics. The Pulsar N160 is available in various vibrant color options, ensuring riders can choose a variant that suits their style.

Engine and Performance

The 164.82cc, single-cylinder, oil-cooled engine at the core of the Bajaj Pulsar N160 provides an output of around 17.3 hp at 9000 rpm and 14.5Nm at 7250 rpm. That is, this engine is optimized for high middle-of-the-road performance and is therefore suitable for urban journeys as well as for driving over winding roads with relative spiritedness.

For safety, the Pulsar N160 has a 300mm front disc brake and a 230mm rear disc brake, both offering strong stopping power. If single-channel ABS is integrated, it improves safety through preventing wheel lock-up during abrupt braking, which is significantly beneficial within the urban environment. This capability provides enhanced trust to riders, allowing them to come to a halt safely when in distress.

Ergonomics and Comfort

Rider comfort is one of the most important factors to be given attention in the design of Bajaj Pulsar N160. The bike is upright, wil a slightly up raised handlebar and a comfortable bike seat for both short and longer cylists.

Also, due to the wide seat of the bike, the rider and the passenger’s comfort can be accommodated sufficiently to allow two-person riding.

Fuel Efficiency and Mileage

Fuel economy is the most important aspect to the Bajaj Pulsar N160, especially for commuters who utilize it for daily transport. The bike is rated to provide an average of 40-45 km/l mileage under various riding conditions and riding style.
