Design
According to Bajaj Auto, the new Pulsar 250 is an evolution of the Pulsar brand, so while the design has undergone changes, it's still unmistakably a Pulsar. Both bikes look refreshed and modern, and gets a completely redesigned face, with a new projector headlamp with LED daytime running lights. The shape of the LED DRLs are different on the N250 and F250 to give them a different appeal.
The bikes are available in a choice of two colours, Racing Red and Techno Grey. The visual differences on the Pulsar F250 is the slightly larger fairing with a windscreen, and clip-on handlebars. Both bikes get split seats with 795 mm seat height and split grab-rails at the rear.
Engine & Performance
Both bikes share the same all-new 249 cc, single-cylinder, air and oil-cooled two valve engine which develops 24.1 bhp at 8,750 rpm and 21.5 Nm at 6,500 rpm. The Pulsar 250 gets a 5-speed gearbox with a slip and assist clutch, which should offer a lighter pull on the clutch lever, as well as easier and more aggressive downshifts.
Chassis & Cycle Parts
The Pulsar 250 twins are built on a new tubular steel frame, and uses 37 mm telescopic front forks and a rear monoshock with pre-load adjustability. The 17-inch wheels are shod with a 130 mm rear tyre and a 100 mm thick front tyre. Ground clearance is 165 mm, and while the Pulsar N250 has a kerb weight of 162 kg, the Pulsar F250 has a kerb weight of 164 kg.
Braking duties are handled by a 300 mm front disc and a 230 mm rear disc, though only single-channel anti-lock braking system (ABS) is offered. Brakes are from Grimeca, owned by Endurance Technologies and not ByBre as in other Pulsar models.
Features
The Bajaj Pulsar 250 gets a new part-analogue, part-digital instrument console with an analogue tachometer needle and a small LCD screen displaying readings for speed, odometer, gear position indicator, trip meters, a clock, fuel gauge, and distance to empty readings. There are no other fancy features like Bluetooth connectivity or turn-by-turn navigation.
Prices & Competition
The Bajaj Pulsar N250 is priced at Rs. 1.38 lakh (Ex-showroom), and will go head to head against the Yamaha FZ25, which is priced at Rs. 1.37 lakh (Ex-showroom). The half-faired Pulsar F250 doesn't get a full-fairing, but its closest competitor will be the full-faired Suzuki Gixxer SF 250, which makes marginally more power and torque, and is slightly lighter with a 161 kg kerb weight, but costs almost Rs. 42,000 more with its Rs. 1.83 lakh (Ex-showroom, Delhi) price tag.
