Q. Should I buy Bajaj Pulsar 220 F BS6 or BS4?
  • My suggestion is go with bs4 model. 1. bs4 cost is low compare with bs6 model.(near about 10,000/-).2. bs6 torque and speed is reduce compare with bs4 model.3. only one changes done by bs6 model i.e pollution reduce compare with bs4 model. remaining all is same.
  • I drove Pulsar 150 over 2 lakh km with in city in Bangalore. Iam sure Iam eligible to answer your query. In my view, always old vehicles are strong and having more torque compare to similar new model. In short go for 2019 or early 2020 model Pulsar 220F as it offers BS4 norms with ABS. Mid 2020 onwards you have BS6 which offers little less pickup and torque.
  • BS6 but you will have to wait for some time as it's not yet launched

Q. Which is the best bike, Bajaj Pulsar 220 F or
  • Both the bikes are good in their forte. The Bajaj Pulsar 220F is a popular streetfighter motorcycle among enthusiastic riders who do not want to burn a hole in their pockets, the Pulsar 220F is powered by an updated 220cc fuel-injected motor which makes 20.4PS, which is 0.53PS less than the BS4 variant. The torque remains the same 18.55Nm. It continues to use a 5-speed gearbox. There’s no change in terms of underpinnings. It still uses a telescopic fork at the front and twin shock absorbers at the rear. Anchorage is provided by disc brakes at both ends paired to a single-channel ABS. On the other, the Yamaha R15S remains one potent small-capacity supersport for beginners. In its version 3.0 guise, it has become sharper and more focused, making it great for sport riding or track enthusiasts. However, the aggressive riding stance could cause discomfort if you intend to use the bike for daily commuting and the quality of components has also gone down. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test ride before making the final decision. Follow the link and select your city accordingly for dealership details.
  • Here it's as per the buyer. I being a 220 owner can share my experience as per my concern 220 is way better in all aspects Pulsar 220 cc will cost you around ₹1,40,000/- whereas R15 v3 150cc around ₹ 1,60,000/- on raid in mumbai major ratio seen I have even completed 126000 km with out any engine opening or clutch plate changes till date from 2015.
  • I think u go for pulsar 220 f.because as maintenance wise it will cost u low. not very aggressive position . u r wrist will not get pain after long drive.even if u have girlfriend on u r rear.even if she stick with u r back when u riding u will not feel weight. 😄. So go for pulsar 200f

Comfort is totally enhance in this bike and can go for a long rides with this bike and comes with the single channel ABS.

    The bike's lightweight frame and responsive handli 

    I had my KTM 125 Duke for about a year now and it has been quite the nimble companion on city streets. With its 125 cc engine that puts out 14.5 HP, it makes zipping through traffic a breeze. The bike's lightweight frame and responsive handling make it a joy to ride in the urban jungle. I also love the sharp, aggressive styling that turns heads wherever I go.However, it's not all smooth riding. The KTM 125 Duke struggles on highways. The engine feels strained above 80 km/h and long rides can become tiring due to the lack of power.
