Bajaj Pulsar RS200 Overview
The Bajaj Pulsar RS200 is the costliest bike in the bikemaker’s Pulsar lineup and the only fully faired offering from Bajaj. The motorcycle hasn’t received any significant updates since it was launched in 2015, except for the inclusion of dual-channel ABS, and new colour schemes. But it becomes a hard task to justify its price, as the bike misses out on modern features while the competitors have been evolving continuously.

Bajaj Pulsar RS200 Expert Review
