Bajaj Auto Ltd has launched the updated 2024 Bajaj Pulsar N250 in India at a price of Rs. 1.51 lakh (ex-showroom). The motorcycle has received multiple upgrades and new features over its predecessor.
The new Bajaj Pulsar N250 now features Endurance-sourced 37mm upside down front forks and traction control system, fully digital instrument console with Bluetooth connectivity, and three ABS modes – Rain, Road and Off-Road. Riders can change the ABS modes as per their needs. For example, if you are riding in Rain mode, the system will be the most alert and will intervene a lot more if it detects that the wheel is about to lock. However, even in the Off-road mode, the ABS cannot be switched off at the rear. However, the traction control system can be switched off in the Off-road mode.
The updated Bajaj Pulsar N250 also gets wider tyres now – 110 front and 140 rear tyre. In comparison to its predecessor, the tyre size has increased 10mm at both ends. With 2kg more weight, the Pulsar N250 now weighs 164kg, with the 14-litre tank full.
The rest of the cycle parts remain unchanged. The motorcycle is offered in three colour options- Red, White and Black. The red and white paint schemes get gold coloured USD fork and silver finishes on the engine casing as well as exhaust muffler, while the black colour variant is offered with black coloured forks.
The Pulsar N250 is powered by a 249cc, single-cylinder, oil-cooled engine that produces 24.1bhp and 21.5Nm of peak torque. The motor continues to be paired with a five-speed gearbox. It comes with an assist and slipper clutch.
At Rs 1.51 lakh (ex-showroom), the price of the updated Pulsar N250 remains nearly unchanged with a hike of only Rs 829. The Pulsar N250 competes against the likes of Suzuki Gixxer 250.
