Bajaj is in the process of updating its Pulsar range, the biggest contributor to the company’s domestic sales. After launching the new Pulsar NS160 and NS200, Bajaj has introduced the 2024 Pulsar NS125. Launch price of 2024 Pulsar NS125 is Rs 1.05 lakh, which is around Rs 5,000 more than the outgoing model.
2024 Bajaj Pulsar NS125 – What’s new?
While there are no extensive changes to the design and styling, the new 2024 Bajaj Pulsar NS125 does get an updated headlamp setup. New LED DRLs in lightning bolt pattern enhance the bike’s sporty profile. The headlamp casing on the outgoing model has a similar design, but the edges are not so eye-catchy.
The front fascia of the 2024 model is significantly enhanced with the updated styling of the headlamp setup. Vertically positioned at the centre of the headlamp casing are the low and high beams. Another change can be seen in the multi-layered design of the compact visor. It gets more detailing and a sharper profile in comparison to that of the outgoing model.
2024 Pulsar NS125 – New instrument console
As compared to the outgoing model that has a semi-digital instrument console, the new Pulsar NS125 gets a fully digital unit. It supports smartphone connectivity, allowing users to access calls and messages on the go. The instrument cluster also displays the phone’s battery level.
Other info displayed on the screen includes odometer, rev counter, trip meter and fuel gauge reading. Bajaj has also introduced USB charging to make things even more convenient or users. Safety has been improved with the addition of ABS.
