Bajaj Pulsar NS200.
Introduction-
The Pulsar 200 NS was, in a way, Bajaj's first modern sports bike. It was the first Bajaj to get a perimeter frame, a rear mono shock and a potent liquid-cooled motor. The NS 200 came with almost all the bells and muscular design whistles you wanted in a sports bike but offered it all at a very affordable asking price .
Despite the arrival of this modern flagship from Bajaj, the Pulsar 220F continued to command buyers’ spends. Bajaj hoped to do better with the arrival of the NS’ partly-faired sibling, the AS200. While the 200NS was axed to give the AS breathing space, the serpentine tale now continues with the reintroduction of the NS 200 for 2017. So has the NS changed during its sabbatical?
How is it to ride-
The Pulsar NS 200 has always been one of the best handlers to come from the Bajaj stable. Unlike its KTM cousin, the NS 200 trades the KTM Duke 200's sharp reflexes for a surefooted feel. Cycle parts too are not as exotic or lightweight as the Duke 200 but on a twisty road, the NS 200 can be as engaging to ride. In fact, the bike feels more relaxed and accommodating on the limit, something new riders will appreciate. Ride quality is good too though a tad on the firmer side going by the sporty demeanour of the bike. The MRF Zapper tyres grip well in the dry and emanate a good level of confidence to ride the bike aggressively.
