Bajaj Pulsar N125: Engine

There is no information about the engine of the upcoming Pulsar N125. However, market reports suggest that Bajaj might equip this motorcycle with an all-new 125cc engine as its existing 125cc engine has not been upgraded for a long time and is slightly old compared to its competitors. The new improved setup is likely to bring more power and performance, enabling the Pulsar N125 to rival the TVS Raider 125 and Hero Xtreme 125R in the segment. However, the transmission of this motorcycle is likely to be a five-speed.

Bajaj Pulsar N125: Hardware

Bajaj Pulsar N125: Features

The Pulsar N125 is expected to come with a centre stand, wheel cushions similar to the N150, a negative-lit LCD instrument console with Bluetooth connectivity but no turn-by-turn navigation.
