It won’t be wrong to say that the Pulsar range of motorcycles is the breadwinner for Bajaj Auto’s two-wheeler division. There are easily a dozen Pulsars currently on sale in the market. Over the past two years, Bajaj has launched multiple iterations of Pulsar including brand new as well as updated models.
The Chakan-based bikemaker has shared a teaser of another Pulsar on its social media handles. While the teasers don’t confirm a launch, it is quite likely that Bajaj may bring another update to one of its Pulsars. Although the teaser doesn’t reveal which model it could be, if we had to hazard a guess, we’d say it could be the Pulsar RS 200.
The most logical reason being the fact that it is the only model with the Pulsar moniker not having received any update in a long time. Moreover, the highlight of the short clip shared is the throaty exhaust note in the background which unmistakably reminds us of the RS 200. The faired sports bike was first launched in 2011 alongside NS 200.
2025 Bajaj Pulsar RS 200: Design & Specs
An update for the RS 200 is long overdue, especially since its naked sibling received a crucial set of upgrades at the start of this year. The design of the sports bike is unlikely to change which means the fully-faired body with a twin-pod LED headlamp headlined by a windscreen on top will remain intact. Other visual highlights will include a low clip-on handlebar, a floating tail section, split seats, a rear tyre hugger, and split pillion graph rails.
The powertrain specs on the 2025 Pulsar RS 200 is also expected to remain unchanged. It will continue to be powered by a 199cc, single-cylinder, liquid-cooled engine which pushes out 24.13 bhp at 9,750rpm and 18.74 Nm at 8,000rpm. The engine is paired with a six-speed gearbox.
2025 Bajaj Pulsar RS 200: Expected updates
We expect the 2025 Pulsar RS 200 to receive the same set of updates as the latest iteration of Pulsar NS 200. This includes a fully-digital negative LCD instrument cluster which will offer Bluetooth connectivity with features like call and text alerts along with turn-by-turn navigation via Bajaj’s Ride Connect application. Bajaj might also add a ride-by-wire throttle which could offer multiple ride modes with the updated Pulsar RS 200.
The other big update is likely to be the addition of upside down front forks. The rear suspension will continue to feature a monoshock while braking duties will be handled by disc brakes at both ends with dual-channel ABS as standard. We also expect Bajaj to offer some new colour schemes and body graphics with the updated Pulsar RS 200.
