Specs & Features

Expert's Opinion on Pulsar N160

Overview

Definitely Pulsar

• The Bajaj Pulsar N160 shares the same design language as the N250 along with the same chassis
• The bike is quite fuel efficient, tractable, and capable of hitting apexes without feeling unsettled

Design

A Familiar Story

• The Pulsar N160 has the same design as its elder sibling, the N250
• It gets split-LED DRLs and the LED projector headlight
• The bike has beefy fuel tank extensions which look quite sporty
• The only difference between the N250’s design and this is of the stickers it gets, which reduces the appeal of the bike

Performance & Mileage

A Strong Heart

• The 160cc engine is torquey and street-friendly
• The bike pulls clean after being slotted into the 5th gear at 25kmph without much effort
• Despite being a 2-valve engine, it is very refined and has minimal vibrations
• The N160 is quite frugal as well and has a claimed mileage of 48.5kmpl
• It feels at ease sitting at 85-90kmph and can sustain slightly higher speeds as well
• Above speeds of 90kmph, the engine becomes very loud and struggles to pick up pace

Handling

Never Backs Down

• The N160 handles corners beautifully
• It inspires the rider with confidence to carry more speed through the corner
• The brakes are good and allow the bike to shed speed quickly
• The lever feedback is precise and on-point

Ride Quality

Achilles' Heel

• The suspension is on the stiffer side and becomes more pliant with a pillion onboard
• As it shares the same monoshock as the N250, it is set on the firmer side
• Due to its lower kerb weight than the N250, the rear feels stiff and will try to throw you off when going fast over sharp bumps

Comfort & Storage

Quite Good

• The seat is well-padded and provides ample amounts of support for both the rider and the pillion
• The mid-set footpegs and the handlebar allow for an upright riding posture making it quite comfortable

Features

A Decent List

• The Bajaj Pulsar N160 comes with an LCD instrument cluster which supports smartphone connectivity via Bluetooth
• It shows call & SMS alerts, music control and turn-by-turn navigation
• The bike gets three ABS modes: Rain, Road and Offroad, and a USB charging port as well
• The LCD screen is quite cluttered and difficult to read at a glance

Verdict

Should you buy the Bajaj Pulsar N160?

• The Bajaj Pulsar N160 is a great motorcycle which has decent features, a frugal and capable engine, and loves to hit the corners
• The only caveat is the harsh ride quality and the looks which are similar to its elder sibling

Key Things to Know about Pulsar N160

Upside

• Engine is very refined and tractable
• Sporty and confidence-inspiring handling
• Only bike with dual-channel ABS in the 160cc segment

Downside

• Rear monoshock is firm, resulting in a bouncy ride
• Not-very extensive features list
• Looks like a clone of the Pulsar N250

Expert's Conclusion

The Bajaj Pulsar N160 is very likeable as a whole. Its combination of a smooth, tractable and easy going motor with the brilliant handling characteristics fit is perfect for the segment. And the addition of dual-channel ABS is a big advantage.
