Styling
To best way to describe the styling of the motorcycle is to call it ‘aggressive’. The two LED lamps are flanked by small decals. There is also a turn indicator which is similar to KTM Duke 200. The bike also houses quite a big windscreen which is a practical feature and should come as useful under the right circumstances.
Engine
Bajaj Pulsar RS200 runs on almost the same engine as Pulsar NS200. It is powered by single-cylinder 200cc, liquid-cooled, fuel-injected engine. The engine produces 24.2 bhp of power at 9750 rpm which is just one unit more than Pulsar NS200. The engine generates a peak torque of 18.6Nm at 8000 rpm. The fact that the engine is fuel injected makes for crispier throttle response and a smoother ride.
Brakes and Suspension
The suspension duties on Bajaj Pulsar RS200 are managed by the telescopic front forks and monoshock at the back. The braking is handled by a single ABS unit coupled with 300mm disc brakes at the front and a 230mm disc brake at the back.
Instrumentation
The center console on RS200 features a digital fuel indicator and an analog tachometer. On the left side, there’s a turn indicator, battery indicator and indicator for oil level. The right side of the console houses two-trip meters, side-stand indicator, time-indicator, and a speedometer.
Riding comfort and handling
Although RS200 is not exactly a super sports bike, but the general feel is quite similar to that. The riding position is aided by clip-on handlebar. The foot pegs are moved closer to the rear. To elevate the riding comfort for pillion riders, there’s the option to mount pillion backrest for Pulsar RS200 by LLUVIA industries.
