Pulsar NS160 Rear Disc Variant Reaches Dealerships: The Pulsar series is one of the highest selling bikes in India. Within the range, the NS160 is one of the most stylish bikes, and it is based on the NS200, with a design that looks fresh even years after it came out. The rear disc model of NS160 was recently spotted by YouTuber Shivansh Batham at a Bajaj dealership. It is expected to get a price hike of around INR 3000 in comparison to the standard model, which is available for INR 82,700 (ex-showroom Delhi).

Apart from the rear disc brake, the updated NS160 also gets a new design for the alloy wheels. Except these 2 things, there are no other changes to the bike. Seems like the brand has skipped the 1-channel ABS for now and they offer the same in 2019. It is powered by a 160cc single-cylinder oil-cooled engine with a triple spark plug. The engine generates maximum power of 15.3 HP with peak torque of 14.6 NM. The acceleration time from 0 to 100 kmph is around 15 seconds and the bike has a top speed of 115 kmph (approximate). Bajaj will launch the NS160 rear disc model in a few days with an expected ex-showroom price tag of around INR 86,000.
