Q. 150 or 180 which one i should prefer - Pulsar 180?
  • I have had 180 since April 2008 and I do feel like it’s time for some changes. I can’t complain but I do feel the new version of 180 will be a better one. Though 150 will give you a bit more mileage but hey, when you wanna go for pulsar, nobody thinks of mileage to be honest, lol. If that’s the case for you too, go for the new version bro. I do hope they put dual seats this time. Uniseat just makes you slide down if you’re on the back seat but that’s not a major issue to get concerned with. I’m sure you’ll love whichever you choose bro. It’s your decision in the end. I hope I’m helpful in making you decide. Thanks for asking.
  • Pulsar 180 is the best. I am using this bike from 2003(this time Bajaj introduce first Pulsar 180). My first Pulsar had stolen April 2005. Again I purchase 180 at May 2005. Still now I am using Pulsar 180.
  • Mileage wise 150 would be the best ...and moreover both the bikes come loaded with the same styling, you cannot make out between the 2 unless u see the sticker or if you opt for 180f.....and there is not a lot difference in the performance between the two.

    Vespa lx 125 is a very good-looking scooter.The design theme includes a round headlight, Curvy body panels, And a slightly forward-leaning stance.It looks sleek with the old bolts tucked away.The quality of parts is pretty good.

    Running abo 

    Hi, I am hasnain i own a vespa lx it is running about 47000 kms but it is running smoothly no problems on it and the fuel economy is good when driving below 50km compared to other scooters its design gives nostalgia vibe and service is between low and medium in price range but the service was good if you are looking for the bike for long term use its absolutely made for it.
