Pulsar 125 review

  Back in the early 2000s the Indian automobile industry saw a shift similar to what we are observing today. The only difference is that right now manufacturers are on a war footing to launch BSVI-compliant products, though back then the race was on to launch four-stroke products to replace the smelly, smoky two-strokes that had ruled the roost towards the end of the last millennium.

2022 Aprilia SR160 Spotted Undisguised; Gets Few Changes



2022 Aprilia SR160 pics have surfaced that reveal the cosmetic changes the sports scoot will get. It is just days away from launch…

Aprilia seems to be almost ready with its 2022 SR160 for the Indian market. After a few on-road camouflaged spy pics, the sports scooter has been caught absolutely undisguised at some dealer yard, revealing changes.

The updated version will come with a new face – that has a changed front apron as well as fresh LED headlamps and DRLs. As you can see the graphics have also been changed and that has made the scooter look fresher. Also notice that there is a new housing for the handlebar.


The seat has been re-done; there is carbon fiber finish on the front mudguard and we can also notice a single-piece pillion grab rail. From a semi-digital instrument cluster, it will now transition to a full digital unit that is very similar to the maxi-scooter SXR160.



We do not expect significant changes to the engine or the tune that means it may continue with the same 160.03cc 3-valve engine that produces 10.84 bhp and 11.6 Nm. However, price is expected to see a jump. The current model starts at around Rs 1.08 Lac ex-showroom for reference.


Now that the updated model is already at dealerships, we expect a formal launch announcement in the days to come.

Pulsar 125cc and 150cc range likely to get updated  New-gen Bajaj Pulsars will get an overhauled design along with new features and an updated engine The Pulsar range of motorcycles received a fresh breath of life when Bajaj launched two new flagship Pulsar models in the form of Pulsar N250 and Pulsar F250. The series of sporty commuter motorcycles recently completed two decades in the Indian market and has reached cult status for enthusiastic riders on a budget. However, competition in recent years has stiffened with TVS pulling new tricks with its Apache brand of motorcycles. Some of the smaller Pulsars now appear to be outdated since they haven’t received a major upgrade in many years. Bajaj, however, has regularly provided all its models with small cosmetic and feature updates.
