Pulsarmania has been there in India for the past 10 years and it still dominates Indian roads no matter whatever bikes enter the Indian market.
It is the pulsar fans who still don't want to change their mind to a new bike cos of its raw power and oozing speed and design. Also, Bajaj never lets their fans down by giving serious upgrades every year or two and most of the upgrades had a higher CC version. First 150cc and 180cc launched and rocked for nearly 5 years in Indian market later came 200cc which was again defeated by 220Fi and in year or two came 220F (not a fuel injection- carbueretted version)
Finally 200cc engine was eradicated from pulsar market. so we had 150, 180, 220 and smaller 135 version. It was rumoured like the 200cc engine was donated to Bajaj RE60. However bajaj proved that they did not remove the 200cc for the reason it didn't go well.
The real reason was identified when KTM Duke 200 (oops sorry i've uttered the truth).
The real reason was identified when Pulsar 200NS was announced. Every one knows that Duke is the top performer in 200CC segment and the only competitor will be Pulsar 200NS.
The Engine specs of Pulsar 200NS is exact replica of KTM Duke 200, however the chassis, body, etc... was built by Bajaj. So you will have the rich essence of pulsar and smoking power of KTM Duke.
So what is the difference between them!!!
Here comes the difference of whopping Rs. 44,000 (on Ex-showroom price).
Yes! Pulsar 200NS will be available @Rs.88K and Duke 200 will be available @Rs.132K (point is both available at PulsarMania showrooms)
So the decision is simple, when we are able to get the same power for nearly 33% lesser price, the Real hero is here the Pulsar 200NS.
Cheers!!!
