    I finally decided to bring home the Bajaj Pulsar 1 

    After months of comparing, I finally decided to bring home the Bajaj Pulsar 125. The choice was not easy but the bike's powerfull performance and sharp looks won me over. With a 125 cc BS6 engine that pumps out around 11 PS of power whiche makes my daily commutes not just easier but more enjoyable. It comfortably cruises at city speeds and the gear shifts are smooth like butter.However The bike does feel a bit underpowered on highways and the fuel efficiency averaging around 50-55 kmpl, could have been better.

    Bajaj has been producing it's pulsar series in indian market from a long time.This pulsar 125 is no different.The seat is neither too hard nor too soft.This bike's kerb weight is around 140 kgs but it could have been less.The engine needs no recognition.This bike's throttle response is smooth as always.Talking about the mileage, After the bs6 norms you can easily expect a mileage of 48-55 kmpl.The head lights could have been led, The tail lights are led wirh that sparkling effect which is actually the signature of a definitely male pulsar model.Talking about the brakes, It gets a good hold at the front but not in the rear ones.Bajaj could have given abs at front.Overall it's a good bike within a reasonable bucks.

    making rides hassle-free 

    Honda is known for its reliable service network and low maintenance costs. That's why I love this bike. The Shine is known for its excellent fuel efficiency, delivering over 60 kmpl in ideal conditions. The engine is smooth and refined, offering a good balance between power and mileage. While sufficient for city rides, the Shine might feel underpowered for highway. The Shine competes in a crowded 125cc segment. You might find other bikes offering more power for same segments.
