Recently Asked User Questions

Q. 2025 model is best or 2024 is best which is the best?
  • The 2024 Bajaj Pulsar NS400Z has been discontinued, with its last recorded price at approximately ₹1.86 lakh (ex-showroom, India). The 2025 model is powered by a 373 cc engine, delivering around 40 PS of power and a top speed of 157 km/h, along with a claimed mileage of 34 km/l. It is equipped with advanced features such as dual-channel ABS, Bluetooth connectivity, and a fully digital instrument console. However, the choice between versions depends entirely on personal preferences and riding needs. To know more, we recommend contacting your nearest authorised dealer. Click on the following link to view the details of the nearest authorised dealership by selecting your city: https://www.zigwheels.com/bikes/dealers/bajaj/Delhi
Q. Confused between, FS-Z Fi V3 and MT-15?
  • Both the bikes are good in their forte. In nearly every aspect, except maybe ergonomics and braking, the Yamaha FZS-FI v3.0 fails to impress. While its motor offers better fuel efficiency compared to the previous-gen model, it lacks grunt. If you have around Rs 1 lakh to invest, you're better off with say a TVS Apache RTR 160 4V, Bajaj Pulsar NS 160 or the Suzuki Gixxer. Whereas, the Yamaha MT 15 BS6 is more than just the R15 v3 sans fairing. The naked looks sharp is light and can be a hoot to commute. However, the compact riding posture might be a bit too tight for large riders. What is also disheartening is the poor switchgear and build quality as well as the lack of dual-channel ABS. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride for a better understanding of performance and comfort. Click on the link and select your desired city for dealership details.
